2020-05-201h 55Turn-Based Cynics: Unleashing Snark and Wit on the Gaming WorldBonus #4: E3 2019 Microsoft Conference Live-CommentaryAnd now for something completely different: Taking the opportunity, Resobaso and ColdDeath watch the Microsof Press Conference at E3 2019 and do some live-commentary, with some additional thoughts at the end.
To watch it in sync with video of the conference, load up the following vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73kSvsQ_kkA and start our episode at ~15 seconds of the video, that should have it pretty much in sync.
Enjoy :)
