The Game Awards aired last week, and thanks to the Wednesday curse, we’re just now able to do our wrap-up of the live stream. So for our main topic, we’re going to review our predictions and find out which one of us got the most picks correct. Then we’ll be recapping the biggest game announcements from the show, including Hades 2, Crime Boss: Rockay City, Death Stranding 2, and more.

We'll also be discussing Bloomberg's claim that the esports boom is fading as investors and sponsors dry up, how Diablo IV developers are bracing for the game's impending release, the Federal Trade Commission's lawsuit to block Microsoft’s $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard, and the newfound footage of a long-lost Michael Jackson Sega game.

Finally, class is in session with Professor Ryebread in our Gaming History 101 segment. In this episode, we're looking at the history of Game Freak founder and creator of Pokémon, Satoshi Tajiri.
