Episode 45: Power to the Gamers

November 20, 2017
On this weeks episode, Cuba and Roy talk about the controversy surrounding the Star Wars: Battlefront 2 launch. We rip into EA and their continued use of predatory business practices and loot box tactics, and later discuss the state of the gaming industry.

We fully urge gamers to take power back into their hands and not support the the big game companies that care about profit over gamer satisfaction
