A special bonus episode of Termite's Buzz all about The Game Awards. Termite took a legendary trip across the country to celebrate TBone's 40th Birthday. I discuss the trip, our experience, the people we met, and review The Game Award show itself. I end the show with my favorite announcement and moments in the show!

Termite's Buzz! A weekly solo show running through what games and/or trophies Termite is pursuing, followed up by some gaming industry news and finishing with a retro video game discussion. This week, an incredible discussion as Termite is joined by none other than the tech wizard, Computer Booter, David! David owns a video game retail store and repairs phones, pcs, video game consoles, and other electronics. In addition to discussing his business as a video game retailer, we dive into the pinnacle of David's prowess—the legendary Frankenstein PS3 Mod. This awe-inspiring modification involves replacing the graphics chip, RSX, of the original PlayStation 3s with those from the newer hardware revisions. Few individuals in the world can boast such a remarkable feat, and we are honored to have David among us.
