Guinness just announced their list of the Top 50 video game characters of all time based on the results of a public poll, and well... we have thoughts. We go over the list's snubs, surprises, and outright shocks. Does Mario really deserve to be #1? The answer is...it depends. We'll also discuss the newly announced Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet, the leaked pricing details for PlayStation's Spartacus subscription service, how Capcom has riled the FGC with its intense Street Fighter 5 legal event guidelines, and the state of the Silent Hill franchise after Konami let its ownership of the official web domain expire.
