Ep. 74 - WE’RE BACK!!

We’re back, True Avatars!

Ekamy and Lloyd join me for this mildly revamped version of the podcast, which has a greater focus on games discussion and less focus on news. What’s in store for the future? Just how scaled back is news? Where are the special segments? The changes aren’t as drastic as they might seem, so please listen for all the details!

This week we talk about a few modern classics, the quality level of the latest Life is Strange, and the Switch version of the Tomodachi Life sim game.

Plus, we do have a couple news stories: GameStop is buying eBay…? And the Bank of America wants you to pay a lot of money for GTA 6 to save the games industry.

Please note that this episode was recorded before Nintendo announced their price increases!
