It's two in love, one not so much in love with Cuphead and you'll never guess who would rather watch the game than play it. Chamberlain enjoyed (!) Knack 2 and dosen't really understand why, Chance cheated on Overwatch with two different RPGs and Alex found another Netflix show to bindge on. Also, EA can go to hell, which is nothing new, but listen this week for a new, terrible reason.
Chamberlain, Chance and Alex are together again and have much catching up to do. Chance plays something other than Overwatch (I know!) and suggests that everyone give Battlechasers a try. Alex finishes up a glowing playthrough of the X-Com 2 expansion and Chamberlain assigns Cuphead as required playing for anyone with thumbs. Agents of Mayhem is much worse than he said a few weeks ago and Knack 2 is not as terrible as they have been led to believe.
Technical difficulties this week leave you with a short dose of a much calmer, happier Chamberlain. All will return to normal next week.
Buy Cuphead!
Things get a bit loud as Chamberlain played Marvel vs Capcom Infinite (poorly) a few minutes before going on the air. Chance has a much more relaxing, sublime time with Hob and Alex confirms that the X-Com 2 expansion is worth the price of admission. Any statements that Chamberlian enjoyed playing Overwatch, even a little bit, are patently false.
Chamberlain is so frightened by Marvel vs Capcom Infinite that he has yet to leave the safety of the practice room, yet still somehow as a losing record. Chance, on the other hand, discovered that he and Alex are an unstoppable machine in Overwatch and have the world groveling at their feet. Or at least the Mercy changes are cool and Alex has a mean Lucio.
Free Steam code this week! Listen now and move fast! Chamberlain (predictably) does not have fun with Overwatch. Chance does well on no sleep and has nice things to say about It and Alex achieves tranquility with Bojack Horseman and Destiny 2. Also Victor Vran is good, it doesn't matter if you have never heard of it.
Chance brings the movie news along with the Overwatch news and talks about not playing Undertale while watching Fences and The Girl With all the Gifts. Alex barely survived his vacation and Chamberlain attempts to declare who can and can't get paid to write about videogames. And then everyone talks about their siblings for some reason.
Chance is remarkably composed this week following the announcement of serious changes to Mercy, one of his two Overwatch mains. He also defends himself well from Chamberlain's needling about loot boxes and their level of evilness. Alex can't get enough of a good thing and plays Hollow Knight again and Chamberlain is slightly disappointed in Rock of Ages 2. It's still silly but did it have to be so hard this time around? Apologies to Drink Box Studios for Chamberlain's awful, awful flub.
There is Overwatch news, something that Chance brings every week. And there is Overwatch love, which Chance more than brings every week. Then there is the less wholesome side of Overwatch internet fandom that Chamberlain stumbled into. He paid the price and so will you. Alex is back to heap more deserving praise on Hollow Knight and Chance almost apologizes for seeing Alien Covenant.
Chamberlain and Chance join forces to pan Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. Alien Isolation is on sale, play that instead. Chamberlain had only Prey to fall back on, a game whose ending is disappointing but was far less annoying to play. Chance still found time for Overwatch and there is a brief, unexplained detour into American Beauty discussion. Alex would be proud.
