We welcome back Charlie Smith to the show to share his review on the popular shooter from Arkane Studios, Prey. He has a lot to say about his fear of coffee mugs, fighting mimics, exploring a vast spaceship and more. Devan has a nostalgia trip back to Metal Slug 3 and wants to play with friends really bad. We also talk about Minecraft Switch Edition now that it’s out and what it means for the game.

In our news, Nintendo returns with their Treehouse event this year showcasing Super Mario Odyssey. Owlchemy Labs is acquired by Google, Assassin’s Creed is coming back and Gearbox Software hires a team from SMU Guild Hall to make a game.
