Checkpoint Chat

It's E3 week and you know what that means! Wild, inaccurate guesses for each of the press conferences, as Sandy and Matty both gush about their dream reveals and first looks at some new games. 

What are your wildest guesses? Let us know!

We're back from a small week break and better than ever! Matty has finally plunged into Sekiro and is really damn good at it, while Sandy loved shooting foul-mouthed aliens in Void Bastards. News is also packed this week as E3 approaches fast!

If you listen really loudly, you can almost see this podcast.

READY FOR THE APOCALYPSE? You shouldn't be, as Matty and Sandy dive into the disappointing sequel Rage 2 and breakdown how many of its elements just don't work. The pair also discuss just ridiculous a Microsoft and Sony partnership sounds, and then answer just one single question. Just one. We're sad.

The releases have finally slowed down for a week, letting Sandy dive head first into Sekiro Shadows Die Twice for death after death after frustrating death. Speaking of, Matty is back to his bullshit in Celeste as he tackles the hardcore B-Sides, and the pair check in on a busy week of video game news.

Just keep walking...and shooting.

Still not over that awful Sonic trailer? Neither are we, but Sandy makes some space to talk about a much better zombie shooter in World War Z, while Matty is still hacking away at Days Gone. Then the pair combo up their fatalities and chat about how incredible Mortal Kombat 11 is (terrible working conditions aside).

GET OVER HERE...and listen to this great show.

It's all about those freakers this week on Checkpoint Chat, as Sandy and Matty dive deep into their time with Sony's latest exclusive, Days Gone. There's also a light sprinkle of Mortal Kombat 11 before the pair go over the week's news and answer the most important question: Chocolate or Strawberry Nesquik?

Stay tuned to our social channels for a chance to win your own copy of Days Gone later this week!

WE REACHED 50! This week on Checkpoint Chat we're celebrating without cake, finally getting the chance to delve into both Katana Zero and SteamWorld Quest as they fight for your attention in a packed April. Matty is neck deep in Resident Evil 2 finally as well, and just waiting got X to give it to him.

What should we do for 100? Definitely not lying cake.

It's a quiet week at Checkpoint Chat, but only because Matty and Sandy are playing lots of games that they can't talk about yet. Matty did scale Celeste finally and Sandy is jazzed about Jedi Fallen Order, so don't leave just yet.

We also have a lot of Red Bull. A LOT.

This week on Checkpoint Chat, Matty is back (and married!) and he's brought with him thoughts on Celeste and how great the 2018 platformer is. Sandy dives into the simple and delightful puzzle game Islanders, and the pair discuss the fiery debate surrounding Sekiro, difficulty options and accessibility. 

Never take your shoes off during a flight.

Ask us tomorrow and these might all be different, but today Matty and Sandy dive into their own personal top 10 games of all time, including appearance from Portal 2, Journey, God of War and more!
