Snicker-snack
Last week it was revealed that after literal years of pushing, American McGee is officially not getting a thirdAlicegame. We at the Electronic Wireless Showpodcasttake a look at the history ofAlice: Asylum, the game that would never be, as well as the game design bible that was, it seems, the last great hope for the project. We also give American McGee friend of the show status, as consolation.
In hardware news, James clues us in on theNvidia RTX 4070, andCyberpunk 2077’s new Overdrive Mode, which requires a GPU that less than 1% of Steam owners currently own. As James puts it: “what if graphics, but too much?”. In a surprising twist, our recommendations this week are all alcoholic beverages, and when we talk about what we’ve been playing it turns out one of us literally hasn’t bee playing anything.
