This week, the crew discusses all of the news surrounding Activision/Blizzard after its purchase by Microsoft, and the consensus is that Bobby Kotick is still a slime.
The guys discuss the week’s goings-on, including Diablo speedrun sleuths proving a 15-year world record was fake after reverse-engineering the game and failing to replicate the run in 2.2 billion possible randomized dungeons, Call of Duty’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover costing $90, Valve releasing the Team Fortress 2 source code, and a mystery Tony Hawk remaster mentioned by pro skater involved in the game.
