Apple Arcade is here and Brett jumps in to give it a go. We ordered it and have downloaded and played games like What the Golf, Where Cards Fall, Mini Motorways and more. It’s a great platform for $4.99/month to play mobile games without all the frustrating parts. We also play Ghost Recon Breakpoint in the beta. It was free last week and Austin has some good things to say but ultimately is concerned about the final product.
A lot of news game out this past week. We had the State of Play from Playstation with the release date for The Last of Us Part 2, Oculus had their connect and revealed Medal of Honor coming to VR. Apex Legends announces a new map and some frustrating things happened like 2K cracking down on game mods and Mario Kart Tour costing way too much.
We finally discuss pre-ordering games. It’s changed a lot over the years and after getting burned a few times we explore if it’s something gamers should continue to do based on the pre-order offers that most developers provide.
Special thanks to Crazzie Pro Gear. They provided us with some incredible pro-level backbacks for carrying our computer equipment to all our events. If you want a bag yourself, head over to their website to purchase one! A portion of the proceeds go to support The Inner Gamer.
