Rand(Nerds);

Welcome to Episode 239

Zaber is unfortunately away today, so we once again welcome back Skazz

After our normal rambling, we kick off talking about the sad news of the death of Akira Toriyama, creator of Dragon Ball and character designer of Chrono Trigger and Dragon Quest. Skazz gives a brief talk about the various Dragon Ball series and his opinions on it.

Related to above Skazz has also been playing Dragon Ball Z: Kakarov. A RPG that follows the Dragon Ball Z series story line with an interesting upgrade mechanic and how he feels its a game built for the the hard core Dragon Ball fans.

Ram has been manipulating the stock market and doing some dodgy deals in The Invisible Hand. A first person game where you are a stockbroker trying to make huge amounts of money with careful trades and perhaps some dodgy dealings, as well as owning property and getting rapidly promoted.

We also discuss the stresses of married life, Avoiding the government heavy’s, making people feel old, using Tesla chargers to power up attacks and Ram has to prove he exists
