The Gamesline Podcast

It's a heavy news week on the podcast as John and Lorelai sit down to talk about the last few weeks of alligator news before getting into the topics at hand. John's been enjoying Control Resonant while Lorelai has been returning to a lot of games she did not like years ago to see how they held up today after years of patches. Needless to say, she was not happy with Watch Dogs: Legion but definitely picked up her mood with her returns to Cyberpunk 2077 and No Man's Sky.
