Digitec Podcast Episode 119: Microsoft works on Xbox Mobile Game Store as competition to Apple and Google
The Xbox Game Store is to become an independent mobile gaming alternative to the App Store and Google Play Store. "Black Adam" brings entertaining entertainment and "Plague Tale Requiem" tells a rat-infested drama.
Microsoft wants to gain a foothold in the mobile gaming sector and is planning its own app store. The takeover of Activision Blizzard is the decisive piece of the puzzle. Netflix is also investing further in games and flirting with the cloud.
Floating above the clouds is Dwayne Johnson in and as "Black Adam". Luca can't quite say the same about himself after his visit to the cinema.
Simon tried out the unusual handheld Playdate and gave the associated crank a good twist.
Too much turning and pushing is why I can't praise Plague Tale Requiem to the skies. The dark drama is nevertheless worth a visit.

Being the game and gadget geek that I am, working at digitec and Galaxus makes me feel like a kid in a candy shop – but it does take its toll on my wallet. I enjoy tinkering with my PC in Tim Taylor fashion and talking about games on my podcast http://www.onemorelevel.ch. To satisfy my need for speed, I get on my full suspension mountain bike and set out to find some nice trails. My thirst for culture is quenched by deep conversations over a couple of cold ones at the mostly frustrating games of FC Winterthur.
