Gamers Week Podcast
In this episode...
--> The biggest night in gaming sees hypeman Geoff Keighly dish out shiny awards to the best games of the past 12 months -- including indie sensation Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, which walked away with nine awards. Of course, the Game Awards also means hours’ worth of game announcements and trailers to sort through, such as Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic, two new Tomb Raider projects, Mega Man: Dual Override, and Larian Studio's bizarre debut trailer for Divinity.
--> In a move that will dramatically reshape the entertainment business, Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery announced an agreement under which Netflix will acquire Warner Bros., including its game studios.
--> GameStop’s Trade Anything Day created the chaos the company seemed to be hoping for, but workers on social media complained of "disrespectful" and "belligerent" customers, who took the company's announcement as an invitation to create pandemonium.
--> Also: Top 3 New Releases, Gaming History 101
