GAMES JAMES BREXIT BREAKDOWN
The Call Of Duty World League is back, bringing competitive COD to the masses.
It returned with a new-look franchise model. There are now 12 teams spanning the globe, comprising the best players, all scrapping for points to be crowned champions.
The action will continue next weekend at the Olympic Copper Box Arena in London. Tickets available at callof dutyleague.com.
It’s been years in the making, but Brexit is finally here. The will of the people has been delivered, or something.
To celebrate – if that’s the right word – PanicBarn and No
More Robots have released Not
Tonight: Take Back Control Edition.
The game, set in a post-Brexit dystopia, is effectively a bouncer simulator.
In this on-the-nose version of what could be a near-future Britain, Albion First – a far-right party with fascist sympathies – is in control.
Even though you were born in the UK, your grandparents were not. So you have to earn your living via unforgiving door jobs or you get cast out. It’s as simple as that. Heavily inspired by 2013’s Papers, Please, Not Tonight seethes with a sense of dread and trades on the idea that something might go wrong for you at any time. Your choices run deeper than who you let into the clubs you are guarding as you weigh up a life on the breadline, or no life at all. Not Tonight offers an uncomplicated message about our fragmenting society, and in its brooding, depressing 16-bit frame lies a unique and grim reflection of where the UK might be going.
