Chris, Marsh, Tom Senior and Tom Francis join forces with the brand-new audio equipment that YOU bought and that Marsh PROBABLY set up correctly to talk Far Cry Primal, Overwatch, Soma, Armello, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and more.
Also: spasm dandruff, that awkward moment when you forget to include a screen in your beautiful esport stage design, the Am-Dram Gangs of Prague, and one robot’s big night out. We came, we got a large coffee, we conquered.
