It's time for E3! That epic time of year for gamers as we wait for companies to inform everyone of what they have been working on and what will come in the future! In our very first episode we break down our thoughts on what each big conference should contain while also getting sidetracked a ton!
*Note: Hey guys! Chris here! I know that Mitch's mic volume was super low for this recording. Unfortunately there were some major tech issues when it came to editing so you may have to turn your volume up quite high in order to hear Mitch. I apologize for it and will have it all fixed by episode 2! Thanks for understanding!
