The Space Dragon Podcast

It's that time of year where gamers all gather around their computers, consoles, and phones to watch hours of streaming footage from gamer mecca, E3. All the big hitters are throwing unnecessarily extravagant performances in order to get the attention of anyone with free time and a willingness to spend their hard earned cash on overhyped entertainment. We aren't jaded. We just have tempered expectations...

Luckily for us, our very own Keenan McClelland was there in person and fills us in on all the cool stuff he saw on the show floor. Who had the most disappointing press conference? Will Fallout 76 be as lame as the last release? IS KINGDOM HEARTS 3 ACTUALLY REAL?

MARK YOUR CALENDARS! We'll be live at Tampa Bay Comic Con this year on Saturday, August 4th at 2:30pm in Room 22!!!

The world is in chaos. Our intergalactic hosts of fandom and fury have gone missing with no one to fill the void left in their place.

Stay tuned to find out how we felt about Infinity War, what games we're playing at the moment, and what else 2018 has in store for everyone!
