Tonight on GeekNights, we consider the mostly moribund but possibly reviving genre of free space shooters. Games like TIE Fighter or Wing Commander. There is a small chance they live again. Be prepared to dust off your HOTAS.

In the news, Sega has a Game Gear Micro (that only Rym cares about), Nintendo messes up their Pokémon DLC, the Steam Game Festival is live, the PS5 cometh, Paper Mario returns, WotC bans old racist magic cards, the Bundle for Racial Justice and Equality raised over 8MM dollars for the cause, we will be at PAX Online, Dwarf Fortress has graphics, Slay the Spire is now available on iOS, and Command & Conquer Remastered is a thing if that's your thing.
