Rand(Nerds);

Welcome to Episode 248

For some reason we start this episode discussing world records, getting into the Guiness book of records, and various tv programs based around it.

Not having access to his PC at the moment, Skazz has returned to Console gaming with the PS5 and trying out in-home game streaming with the Playstation Portal. He talks about his experience with using remote play and the issues using it over Wifi, this leads into a discussion as to why Google Stadia got a bad reputation. We also talk about Sony's bizarre design decisions and anti-consumer practices.

We then move onto discussing Blood Bowl 2, Skazz has played the tabletop version whereas Ram has not. We discuss the rules of the games, and the outcome of the few matches we’ve had between Ram’s Skaven and Skazz’s Orcs. we also talk about the horror’s of oak nipple tassles

We also discuss fly by wire systems, being arrested for stick shaking, games with complex names, Ram infecting a whole office, delivering freedom, why modern console gaming is like old style PC gaming and the Lord of the RIngs tabletop game
