Episode 80: The Game Awards 2022 Recap

Yes, I know, we've been gone for a while, but life happens ya know? But, we're here when you need us the most; to recap The Game Awards 2022. Geoff gets gritty and grimy with groovy game trailers that tantalize trendy tech typhoons and also give away some awards. But first! Control is getting a sequel, Horizon is getting a multiplayer game, Spiderman 2 is coming out Fall 2023, and is Naughty Dog working on the Last of Us Part 3? Then we recap LITERALLY everything that happened at The Game Awards 2022 and it only takes us about an hour and twenty minutes to do that. Then things get steamy with this week's Heat Check, Alex shares his futuristic GG, and then as always, we tell you what we've been playing since we last recorded (the last 2.5 years roughly). Was Dan able to vote JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Fighting Game Extreme Extravaganza Extra Type R Final Edition (shortened as JJBAFGEEETRFE) to Fighting Game of the Year? Will Dave be sad that a "Real RPG" didn't win best RPG? Has Alex been playing OverWatch 2 way too much? There is only one was to find out.
