S2 #1. New Year Gaming Resolutions 2022

Wh-wh-wh-welcome back! We're finally here!

After a brief hiatus of 6 rather than 2 months (who's counting, eh?), Jymbo and Mike are back for a Series 2, kicking off with Gaming Resolutions. We've had quite a lot of big news this month, like the Microsoft-Activision deal, so we discuss that. Then we get into what we're aiming for with games this year. Enjoy!
