This week’s topic for The Gaming Nexus Show was difficulty. Our presentation today in three acts. Act one Eric talks about how hard it is to be good at video games, and even though he reviews games he’s not necessarily good at them. Act two Joe and Eric chat about the glory days of the original PlayStation era, back when games only had one difficulty. They break down their top five games from that system, with a bevy of honorable mentions (be sure to listen for Elliot’s top five at the top of the show). We round out the episode talking about the biggest gaming news of 2022 so far, Microsoft buying Activision Blizzard. How difficult will it be for Sony now that Microsoft owns an ever growing library of games?
If you want to skip around (that’s totally fine with us) here are the jumping on points for this week’s segments:
3:44 Eric difficulty with games
13:50 Joseph and Eric’s top five PlayStation games
48:25 Activision-Blizzard bought up by Microsoft
