There are few experiences as disappointing as figuring out that a game is supposed to be funny.

We've got Resident Evil on the brain after playing the magnificent remake of Resident Evil 2. So we decided to turn our attention toward a different kind of adaptation... Capcom's first attempt to expand the RE continuity into CGI film.

Resident Evil: Degeneration takes place shortly after RE4, and it has Leon and Claire teaming up to clean up another T-virus mess. Also a mess: this movie. It's confusing and boring, and we ended up wishing it was just a game instead.

Let the circle be broken.

SuperGiant is a studio we really love. We've covered both Bastion and Transistor on this show, so when William Rouse executive-produced an episode about Pyre it was a wonderful chance to complete the SuperGiant collection. And while there is plenty to love about Pyre's world, visual design, and music, we felt that the fantasy basketball came up a little short. Listen in to learn the specifics on why we felt the way we did, and give the game a shot to see if it lands the same for you.
