Spooktober is in full swing so it's fitting that Sandy hit the dance floor with a grim reaper in Felix the Reaper, while sending others to the underworld in Call of Duty Mobile. Matty is used trivia for murder and played a bunch of other new mini-games in Jack Box Party Pack 6, which you definitely should get a party around for.

SPOOOOOKY

This week on a roadshow episode of Checkpoint Chat, Sandy's made three new friends in Trine 4 and learnt to think like the Baba Yaga in John Wick Hex, while Matty has discovered just why Titanfall 2 is one of the best shooters you haven't played.

Cats harmed us in the making of this episode.

Movement is the name of the game this week on Checkpoint Chat, as Sandy checks out the improved platforming of Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair and Matty checks in with the frantic football of PES 2020.

Ain't no chance he's hitting any headers with that hair though.

In this week's extra nice episode of the nicest podcast on the internet, Matty and Sandy check in with the adorable Link's Awakening, discuss some issues with game sharing on the Switch Lite and giggle far too much because, well, we made it folks.

*Marcus Fenix voice* NICE!

This week on a busy weekend for Checkpoint Chat, Sandy checks in again with Gears 5 and is learning to love it more and more, Matty is being pleasantly challenged by Celeste's Farewell DLC and the pair discuss how Apple Arcade is a peek into the future for video games.

Just don't mix up your fruits.

It's really feeling like the end of the year now and Checkpoint Chat is feeling it with some hot takes on hot games. Sandy chats about his disappointment with Man of Medan and how Gears 5 is blowing him away, while Matty is still hooked on good Mario Maker 2 levels and is diving into Celeste again for its final new Chapter.

If you're here, we glad you came all this way *stares*.

Back to the weekly Checkpoint bullshit, Sandy takes a trip through spooky woods in Blair Witch and gets anxious in Wilmot's Warehouse, while Matty is deep into the whimsical levels of custom Mario Maker 2 stages. 

SEND US YOUR LEVELS.

Sandy and Matty aren't as busy with new releases this week, with Matty finally getting his hands dirty with Mario Maker 2 and Sandy seeing just how bad Gears POP! can really be.

Press POP to vreem.

After a brief delay to avoid the embargo police, Sandy and Matty are here to fill you in on a host of brand spanking new games including Control, Astral Chain, Remnant: From the Ashes and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

It took 64 episodes but we're finally current.

When Matty and Sandy aren't debating the legitimacy of a Gucci cryptocurrency, the pair check in on the haunting puzzle platformer DARQ and the best smoke spots in Counter-Strike. Gamescom is also this week so the pair also discuss what to look out for.

Stay Gucci.
