Video Game Subscription Roundtable - DTNS Special

We talk to Scott Johnson, Trisha Hershberger, and Max Scoville about games as a subscription service. Does it work well, is it a legitimate alternative to buying games for serious gamers, how do the different services compare to each other, and will this be how we access games in the future? 


Starring Tom Merritt, Scott Johnson, Trisha Hershberger, Max Scoville
