This week Mike and Kieran are joined by Ben who brings tales of the UK games expo, DangerZone and his experience with the Switch while Mike talks about Injustice 2, Kieran talks about a ton of board games and how great Wipeout still is.
Note: Paul's on holiday so the audio might sound a bit worse than usual this episode, the file size is probably a little bigger too, sorry about that! We'll be back to normal soon, I promise. I'd also like to blame that for the episode being up so late too (We recorded this last week) but really that was entirely my own fault. - Kieran
