Manage episode 452834937 series 3513868
Join Adam, Austin and Jeff as they try something a little different, pouring over Jason Schrier's recent Blizzard tell-all, Play Nice.
Take a stroll down memory lane as the guys reminisce about World of Warcraft and Diablo 2, laugh at Blizzard's blunders, and depressingly dredge through the California lawsuit and its fallout.
Stay tuned next month for Part 2 in which the boys discuss the entire Titan/Overwatch saga, StarCraft in South Korea, Diablo 3 and more.
