Gamers Week Podcast

Send us a text

The 2024 finalists for the Strong Museum's Video Game Hall of Fame have been announced, highlighting another selection of influential titles from across multiple eras. This week, we're taking a break from the doom and gloom of recent video game headlines to play Keep It or Kill It with the 40 games that have been voted into the Hall of Fame since inductions began in 2015.
We'll also be talking about how Sony has stopped producing PSVR2 amid a “surplus” of unsold units, how Epic Games' Fortnite will now allow creators to build and profit from their own "official" Lego Islands games, and how LinkedIn is planning to add gaming to its platform.
