This is a series of Twitch livestream discussions with former colleagues from the Games Industry.
The discussion is mainly me reconnecting with my old colleagues, tapping into the nostalgia of a great era in our lives (and MMO gaming), and ensuring that some of the fun stories of the past aren't forgotten.
