It’s a bit of a slow news week as the gaming industry continues to reel from the news of Microsoft stating their intent to buy Activision Blizzard. We also review the gaming movie Tomb Raider [2018], issue yet another shitty platinum and identify a pick of the week.

2022 is now in full swing and the news and rumours are beginning to flow. PlayStation 3 games have begun appearing on the PS5 store, sparking more rumours that Sony’s new Game Pass equivalent will finally usher in proper backwards compatibility. 

But of course xbox has stolen the headlines this week by announcing that it’s reached an agreement to buy Activision Blizzard for $68.7 in what may be one of the biggest gaming deals of all time.

Join Craig & Jess as we discuss this weeks news as well as the usual Sh*tty Platinum, Gaming Movie Review and Pick of the Week.

In this final podcast of 2021, we forgo many of the usual segments like news, shitty platinum, pure dead love and pick of the week and instead Jes, Andy and Craig run down each of their top 5 games of 2021. We also cycle through the usual nonsense that we have been up to since we last recorded.

Next week is going to be a 2022 preview and predictions episode and we want to hear from YOU! Head on over to the podcast preview for episode 53 to hit us with your serious and outrageous predictions for the year ahead.
