The Overseas Connection #716 - Not a Game of The Year Show --- sort of.

Kim, Pete, Robin, and Greg kick the year off with a round of our favourite, most surprising, most disappointing, and most looking forward to games.

What was your:

Most Played?

Biggest Surprise?

Biggest Disappointment?

What should you have played more?

Top Visual Game?

Most Anticipated for 2023?

Let us know.

Enjoy the banter.

The Overseas Connection #715 - We're not done yet.

 

Kim, Greg, and Robin see out the old year and bring in the new with a parp.

We blah, blah blah for an hour or so and compare Christmas Presents. As per usual Greg's is bigger and takes even more batteries than Kim's.

 

You are formally invited to a very respectful and quiet weekend in Las Vegas, the weekend of the 18th of May. Popular to contrary belief it will not be an intoxicating joyride of debauchery and naughty behaviour.

Victims/guests need only let us know of their interest.

 

Happy New Year from us all you reprobates and see you in 2023.

The Overseas Connection #714 - Twas the show before Christmas

Kim, Greg, and Robin get all festive.

Greg's on a high after his trip to see Mickey. Kim is in calendar purchasing heaven and Robin.... well he's a lost cause.

We've been playing more Solasta, cursing along with High on Life and of course, Robin has been going around and around in circles on Assetto Corsa Competizione.
