The Tangent - 112: The Plight Of The Pleb

Anthony starts us off and we open with some Breath of the Wild talk. Everyone is still loving the game (expect maybe, Gary). All of us have put 50-plus hours into the game. We're all just having fun messing around in the game. Justin follows with some MLB updates. He figured out some things in the settings. Made the game better for him, I guess. He also picked up The Witcher 3 Complete Edition. No access to his old save file, however. Probably for the best as he's going to keep it for a back burner game. Brian then lets us know about a new game he played called Flinthook. It's a 2D side-scrolling Metroidvania game. There is a hooking mechanic and a mechanic to slow down time. Very difficult. Brian had actually played it at PAX East. Last up is Gary, and he's still playing Uncharted 2. He's close to the end, so he's now safe to say it's better than the first. We were all shocked. What we weren't shocked about is how much those shotgun guys suck. Gary also wanted to let us know that he repurchased Bullet Storm on the PS4. No regrets. Then again, no ultra settings.

Who knows what was going on in the Drunken News: Game Show Edition this week, but we all found out someone's affinity for GameStop. Points were lost. Some of the stories we discussed: Nintendo to launch SNES Mini, Fallout Cosplayer Taken into Custody By Police, Breath of the Wild’s first 100 percent speedrun, Star Wars: Battlefront 2 release date, and more.
