Join the Professors as we dive deep into the memory crisis that's making 64GB of RAM cost more than a PS5 (no one is selling but in case you're wondering spleens go for around $500)! We break down the catastrophic DDR5/Memory price surges—with some kits skyrocketing nearly 200% since September—and explore why AI datacenters are hoarding semiconductor production and leaving PC builders devastated. We also cover Nvidia and Intel's surprise x86 RTX partnership that could reshape AI infrastructure and gaming PCs far into the future, plus Nvidia's official pivot from a gaming GPU company to an AI data center powerhouse. On the lighter side, we react to Battlefield 6's record-breaking sales domination for 2025. On the darker side we touch on the Roblox CEO controversy surrounding child safety (spoiler: it gets messy), and share our love for Shape of Dreams and Jump Space in our Independent Studies segment.

Heru and Plague would love your feedback! Let us know what we can improve on and other topics you'd like to hear us discuss by reaching out to feedback@thegameprofessors.com . Come in and grab a seat as we profess our love and hate for all things video games!
