"Not E3" Predicted by MAGIC 8 BALL - Ep. 279

Join Andrea Rene, Brittney Brombacher and Riana Manuel-Peña as they analyze the week's video game news, give hands-on impressions of upcoming titles, discuss your questions, and have a little bit of "off-topic" conversation. With over 30 years of video game industry experience, the conversation is sure to be insightful and passionate, but never takes itself too seriously.

Andrea and Britt dive in to the Xbox Summer Games Showcase announcement and speculate what they'll be showing off this June. All signs point to a Call of Duty Black Ops announcement and is it time for Gears of War to return?? They also chat about the massive $140M Square Enix content loss and their excitement about the upcoming Jackbox Naughty Pack. Instead of hands-on this week, Andrea sat down with CEO of Women in Gaming International (WIGI) Joanie Kraut to discuss the bevy of resources they provide for games industry professionals and their upcoming Run for Equality initiative to raise awareness about the gender pay gap in games.
