Digitec Podcast Episode 123: The $100 Xbox
Microsoft has developed a new Xbox, but does not want to release it. Studio Ghibli will soon make "Star Wars". "Black Panther 2" touches Luca. "Pentiment" makes me a fan of squiggly fonts.
An Xbox that can only stream. That is Project Keystone. We explain in the podcast why Microsoft does not want to release the new console for the time being. The nominations at the Game Awards are also a topic of conversation. We definitely would have had a few other suggestions. We do agree, however, that a "Star Wars" adaptation by the legendary Ghibli studio is a good idea.
In "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story" the name says it all. The biography doesn't take the facts too seriously - not at all. More emotional is "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever", which, despite the superhero story, finds room to pay tribute to the late actor Chadwick Boseman.
One of the most unusual games of the year is called "Pentiment", set in 16th century Bavaria. It is a declaration of love for writing, an examination of faith and a thriller.

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.
