It's back, and it's not even pretending to be about games.
Returning for a new generation of consoles, Jim and Ric are a bit older and a bit more knackered, but they still love video games, Star Trek, and being a pair of daft auld rides.
This in an episode of Gamewank starring... everyone! Well, not everyone, but a bunch of people from the Exclusive Gamewank Discord got together with Jim to record Community Gamewank, a mad experiment that actually worked!

It's Gamewank! We're back for Xmas! Inside we discuss, I dunno, a bunch of stuff. Star Trek, obviously. Video games. Being a pair of decrepit auld guys who have to do this just to socialise now.
After almost a decade and two remasters, Richie finally discovers GTA V.
After over a decade and about 600 re-releases, Richie finally discovers Skyrim.
Merry Christmas! Stay tuned for Community Gamewank next week!!!
