Xbox “Gameplay Footage” And Overwatch League


This week on Checkpoint XP:
(0:00) XBox Game Stream
COVID-19 has axed the major gaming shows this year. With no E3 this June, XBox is running a series of streams over the summer. The first one was held last week, and they’ve apparently forgotten what gameplay footage means.

(24:00) Streets of Rage 4
