Retro Rebel Podcast 142 – Good looking video games from 2022

Retro Rebel Podcast is hosted by Amanda Fox and Stacy Bishop. Each week they take a deep dive into the gaming industry and discuss news stories, the current games they are playing as well as the topic of the week.  Following 2 years of pretty dismal releases (don’t remind me of Cyberpunk 2077), is 2022 the year video games get back on track?

What we’re playing

Amanda- I’ve deleted Best Fiends before it got me haha. I feel like that’s 1 small step for anti-microtransactions. But as a result, all I’ve played this week is tabletop with Werewolf and D&D.

Gaming news

Cyberpunk 2077 is now on next-gen and celebrated it with a patch for older consoles and a free trial play on Ps5 and Xbox Series X/S. Since it’s the worst game ending I’ve dealt with in a while, I couldn’t give a toss.

Forget owning classic Nintendo games as Wii U and 3DS stores shut and Switch Online to be the only delivery method.

There’s a new job posting from Blizzard this week for an established IP and punters think it’s a new WoW expansion.

Early reviews of the Valve steam deck are proving popular and this handheld might represent the best value for money for portable PC Gaming.
