The Nerd Chat | Episode #90: Celebrating Our Games of the Year for 2022
Welcome to The Nerd Chat Episode #90: Celebrating Our Games of the Year for 2022. This week on #thenerdchat: Should we be concerned with the layoffs at 343i, Bethesda, The Coalition, and all of Microsoft? Is Starfield closer than we think with sights of marketing material on new Xbox Series X boxes? And we finally celebrate our games of the year for 2022. We talk about all of this and more on this week's episode of #TNC. Thank you so much for listening, and as always, #seeyouonline.
