Hello and welcome to the 3/20/16 edition of Things that happened the week of and boy oh boy do we have some fun stuff for you
On the games front, we are dropkicked in the face with not one, not two but three huge stories concerning fancy headsets, cross play and the future of a console. I can’t think of a week where more earth shaking events could have happened to close together aside from an E3 and that’s more hype than anything. We are talking about the gaming scene being entirely different from today to a few years from now. Crazy.
This is also the week I have dubbed “Daredevil week”. Currently I am neck deep into the season with three left to go. We had some fun trailers drop in the form of Tarzan fighting gorillas, Apocalypse reminding us what an actual villain is supposed to look like in superhero movies and Sally Field talking metric tons of smack on poor (Not really) those poor Amazing Spider-Man movies.
We know who is officially on team Iron Man and team Captain Marvel in Civil War 2 and a lot more C2E2 news dropped.
All that and more right below. Enjoy!
