What we’re playing

Last Stop

Amanda- I’m playing Last Stop. It’s set in London and is fairly accurate to what it’s like here. The characters are compelling and thought out. The only thing that lets this title down is the graphics and controls which are more suited to a PS2. Available on game pass.

Gaming news

Fall Out

Fallout getting the TV treatment- Amazon is producing a TV show based on the fallout games for its amazon prime platform and its shooting now.

PC: Blizzard Ent

New blizzard IP – according to the Metro, “The first new Blizzard IP in six years has been announced and it’s a survival game with modern-day humans in a fantasy world.” It looks like it might have some mechanics in common with monster hunter world.

Microsoft buys blizzard- not long after the new IP announcement, Microsoft bought up their parent company, making it one of the largest game companies in the world with huge titles like COD and Diablo in the stables.

Main topic- New Year, Nix NFTS

If you don’t know what NFTs are, you’ve been living under a rock. With plans for Twitter users to get new icons if they use NFTs for them and a swathe of praise and criticism for them. What are they, why should we care, and should you get involved? We’ll discuss.
