It’s our first Ben-less week. Aadil is joined by Ms. Beeresistable herself, Lucy Yearwood. Without Ben to reign us in, we talk about quite a bit starting with the newly launched XBox Game Pass, compare it to EA Access, and rant about the weird business models that exist around older games. Aadil waxes poetic about “European Truck Simulator 2” in VR and “Superhot VR”. We touch a little on Hitman and the shutting down of I/O Interactive, and the “Link to the Past: Randomizer”, as well as “Breath of the Wild”, “Thumper” and so much more. Oh yeah, the topic is nostalgia gaming, (S)NES classic, and backwards compatibility.

We both take on the 500mL 9.2% ‘Human Cannonball’ from “Magic Rock Brewery”.
