What’s Up, Playa?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Been a while huh? Well, sorry about that, been really busy at work the last few weeks so that has meant less time for the site. But Emmett Watkins Jr<\/a> and Allan Muir<\/a> are finally back! This time, they’re here to talk all about the Bethesda and Microsoft merger now that it has officially completed. What are we hoping this merger leads to in the future, we’ll talk about that and more in this episode of The Player’s Club!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But first, let’s talk about the games we’ve been playing this week (ok, technically a few weeks ago, but cmon, the takes are still pretty warm!). All talks about his time with Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order and Star Wars: The Old Republic while Emmett talks about his time with Ratchet and Clank (2002) and WET.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can listen to the show on iTunes<\/a>, Spotify<\/a>, Pocket Casts<\/a>, Google Podcasts<\/a>, on this article, and more<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
