Happy Holidays!

Video Games

This week on the show, it’s Xmas Eve on Checkpoint, so what better opportunity to question the relevance of Xmas being in video games altogether? Luke, Ronnie, Viv and Rachel are all on board to discuss some of the cool holiday themed events happening in video games at the moment, along with other titles that use Xmas as part of the games narrative. We also talk about whether or not Xmas has a place in video games at all and talk about other religious holidays that we would like to see represented.

Also, big news this week with a very popular gaming character coming out as gay, along with lots of fantastic demos and freebies hitting online! Don’t miss all the fun in our last show for 2016!
