It was a lot quieter compared to last week for the previews, with Stefan first having a look at Paper Mario: The Origami King which continues to build upon its predecessors, as you can see in his video below.

We’re up to update 1.04 on F1 2020 but still no Mercedes updated livery, well it was there for short time but quickly went back to the old one.
This is the first F1 game I’ve played for a very long time that crashes.

I get some crashes now within the My Team. I’ve posted to the Codies forums and hopefully, some fixes are on the way soon!
