This week, the gang ponder about the games that are coming in 2017, thinking about what they’re really interested in. The games range from Mass Effect: Andromeda to Injustice 2, among other titles. It’s a long rambling conversation, but at least it’s hope. The Gaming History focuses on the folly that was The Capcom 5.
The news items this week include:
- Fallout 4 surpasses Skyrim to become Bethesda’s most successful game ever
- Rainbow Six Siege year two: free loot, better matchmaking, subversive operators
- E3 2017 will be open to the public
The Question of the Week is “What game are you looking forward to in 2017?”
