Welcome to the penultimate JOE Friday Pub Quiz of 2018
“What have we got to look forward to?” you ask. “Well,” I reply. “Is there really anything to look forward to anymore?
“I mean, the political situation is absolutely dire. We’re destroying the environment and dooming ourselves to an inescapable future. Popular culture is eating itself, churning out the same old shit in shinier packaging.
“Technology is evolving at a terrifying rate and we have very little control over how it’s used against us. The economic divide is a chasm and only getting wider. So honestly, what is there really to look forward to?”
“…we meant in the quiz,” you say.
“Oh,” I reply. “Questions, about stuff. Football, music. That sort of thing.”
“Great. Thanks,” you say.
“Don’t mention it,” I reply. “Er, sorry if that got weird. It’s just this time of year, y’know? Anyway, have a good Christmas.”
You’ve already gone.
I’ll tell you what you do have to look forward to: the PlayStation Classic. It’s the original grey PlayStation console reimagined for 2018. In fact, you don’t even have to look forward to it, because it’s out now!
This week there’s a couple of rounds on classics – classic TV shows and classic albums, to be precise. When you add in the twenty classic PlayStation games preloaded onto the handy mini console – which plugs straight into the HDMI port on your telly, by the way – let’s just say you’re gonna have yourself a pretty classic time.
