Editor’s Note: With school online due to COVID-19 and social distancing measures being implemented across the country, things will sound a bit different here at the Emerald Podcast Network as we navigate recording from separate physical spaces. We’ve got limited recording technology, so join us as we figure this out. Itch.io raises money for charity with a timely bundle, Infinity Ward addresses racism in the long running Call of Duty Franchise, a lost Taiwanese horror game gets a second chance, and Sega announces an absurdly, comically small addition to their hardware lineup. All this and more as Janelle, Alex, and Nolan discuss. Also: the greatest games of the year 2000.
- Infinity Ward announces new anti-racism measures in Call of Duty
- Replaced all loading screens in Warzone with BLM message
- Sega announces Game Gear Micro
- Sega also announces new “Fog Gaming” initiative for Arcades
- Devotion gets limited physical release
