This on the The Alpha Build features we discuss some of the new trailers that premiered at The Game Awards, including Mass Effect: Andromeda and Death Stranding.
In the second half of the show we tackle the topic of guns in video games. Are they holding the medium back? Should developers try and innovate beyond FPSs? And what role do consumers have here?
