Welcome back for another episode of the ongoing celebration of being a Nerd, the weather in Queensland is starting to cool off a little. It takes an extra couple of minutes to cook your feet on the concrete now. We have another wonderful episode full of fantastic material for everyone, and believe me when I say everyone. Before we go further, we wish to have a moment to farewell the Mars Opportunity Rover, the gutsy little robot that could, and did for 15 years, so long and see you soon. First up Buck is excited to tell us about the World Science Festival happening this year in Queensland. There are events all around the place ranging from Chinchilla (the dinosaur capital of Australia) to the northern coast in Townsville and Gladstone not just in Brisbane. Buck is like a kid in a candy shop trying to work out which events he wants to attend. Check it out there are so many things to do and see it is totally amazing. There are even films being shown at GOMA (The Gallery of Modern Art) that you can look forward to. The Professor has news about the jobs cut at Activision and the ramifications of it. Also a rumour about job offers circulating for the recently unemployed. This is another major studio/publisher that is facing trouble with declines in sales, share price and general profitability. Wonder when they will start to listen to the customers and make games fun again. Also just bring back games with great storylines, not everyone wants to play a battle royale. DJ has found an amazing movie for us to all go and watch, titled Wandering Earth. It is a Sci-Fi from China on a big budget and is looking well worth watching. We will let you know what we think, but remember we encourage you to make your own decisions not just be sheeple and follow mindlessly what some cretin says. We also have the games being played and the lists of shout outs, remembrances, birthdays, events and general banter. Also we are sad to announce that no one was interested in the date with the DJ.EPISODE NOTES:World Science Festival Brisbane 2019 - http://www.worldsciencefestival.com.au/?gclid=Cj0KCQiA14TjBRD_ARIsAOCmO9b4a4oCKRet7RwIKcYPNs3VXlKlj2QXL7RbnpOZNd7SY9MhDCuDrD4aAmynEALw_wcBActivision Job Cuts - https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-02-08/activision-is-said-to-plan-job-cuts-as-sales-of-key-games-stallWandering Earth the movie - https://www.flicks.com.au/reviews/chinese-blockbuster-the-wandering-earth-might-be-the-best-sci-fi-movie-of-2019/?fbclid=IwAR23djvIMpwbHdA_moWg7qnkyrVqkLERcukORh978SxohkKI-QdOefsIRZIGames currently playingProfessor– Wargroove - https://wargroove.com/DJ– Apex Legends - https://www.ea.com/games/apex-legendsBuck– The Elder Scroll V: Skyrim - https://store.steampowered.com/app/72850/The_Elder_Scrolls_V_Skyrim/Other topics discussedTotal Recall (1990 movie)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_Recall_(1990_film)Solaris (2002 US movie)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solaris_(2002_film)List of Activision games- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Activision_video_gamesActivision Blizzard shuts down King’s Seattle studio- https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-02-13-activision-blizzard-reportedly-shutters-kings-seattle-studioFurther info about The Wandering Earth- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wandering_EarthShadow Raiders (TV Series)- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_RaidersWar Planets (Toy Series)- http://www.virtualtoychest.com/warplanets/warplanets.htmlWorld Engine (Shadow Raiders reference)- https://shadowraiders.fandom.com/wiki/World_EngineWargroove now on Steam- https://store.steampowered.com/app/607050/Wargroove/Apex Legends will have Solo and Duo modes- https://www.pcgamer.com/au/apex-legends-could-soon-get-solo-and-duos-modes/Achievement hunter playing Apex Legends- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yfm5TYQdMC0Gary Larson Art- Thagomizer - https://i.imgur.com/Fv9wXyX.jpg- Dinosaur Cranial Capacity - https://i3.wp.com/i.racjonalista.pl/img/strony/larson1.jpgShoutouts16 Apr 2018 - Gary Larson – The man behind the name the “Thagomizer” a feature of stegosaurus anatomy, was coined in a Far Side cartoon - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Larson24 Jan 2019 - Hayao & his son Goro Miyazaki are making 2 new Studio Ghibli movies - https://screenrant.com/hayao-miyazaki-studio-ghibli-new-movies/11 Feb 1999 – Final Fantasy VIII turns 20 - https://thespinoff.co.nz/games/12-02-2019/final-fantasy-8-is-the-best-and-weirdest-final-fantasy/Remembrances7 Feb 2019 – Albert Finney, English actor who worked in film (Annie (1982), Erin Brockovich, Big Fish, The Bourne Ultimatum, The Bourne Legacy and Skyfall) television and theatre.
