In this episode of The Gaming Duo, Rob (@ridicrob) and Kelvin (@foxphotons) tackle the ever-growing problem every gamer faces: the backlog. Why do we keep adding games we never finish? Is it our fault, or is modern gaming to blame? We break it all down and share our own plans to finally take control of our game libraries.

We also dive into the major reveal of Battlefield 6. After years of ups and downs, is this the return to form fans have been waiting for? We give our full thoughts on the multiplayer gameplay trailer and what it means for the series.

Plus, we react to the official Darksiders 4 announcement and what excites us about seeing all four Horsemen together at last.
