## Resource

Welcome to Active Reload! This week, James and Grant come back to the show, and James has a little bit of a surprise: he's a newly anointed PC gamer! He has joined the "PC master race". He discusses his experience so far and whether people should jump into the PC ecosystem or not. Also, it's going to be a huge month of August for games with plenty of releases! The guys go through which ones they're most excited for and where they'll be playing.
