Listen to the show!
This week on the show, mobile gaming has been taking over and smart phones are getting more and more traction as a legitimate way to play video games. Developers are now looking at mobile gaming as a legit alternative, with big ticket franchises like Fortnite especially recently announced to be coming to your pocket. We’ve seen other publishers like Nintendo, SEGA and Square Enix start using mobiles as a genuine option for their video games, but will mobile gaming be recognized by gamers as a proper option to play games?
Join Luke, Elliot, Cam and Kolby as they discuss the benefits of trying to reach such a casual audience through a platform that practically everybody has nowadays. How do certain genres translate to touch screen? What franchises would really benefit from going mobile? Will a mobile game ever be given a Game of the Year award?
Also on the show, big reviews as Cam attempts to make some new pink blob friends with Kirby Star Alliesand Rachel takes on some truly gigantic beasts in Attack on Titan 2! It’s all here plus the news of the week on your favourite video game show!
