Hello there folks! It's time for a new month of experiments from The HUGE Crew! This week we kick off our next project: "Worst of the Best"!

What is this strange new thing I hear you asking? Well I'm glad you asked! In "Worst of the Best" the host presents a game that they think is the worst entry in an otherwise great series. The group discuess the pitch and eventually puts it to a vote!

Our first entry is: Pyre by Super Giant Games! (Yes, we know that Super Giant Games is a company and not a video game series. You'll have to tune in to find out how Ben spins this one!)

The HUGE Crew is finally done with Dead Space 3! We've gathered the survivors to meet up and do a regular podcast about beer and video games before we dive into this month's new project.

This week on the podcast Evan, Tim, and Matthew talk about: John Wick 4, The Mario Movie, Evil Dead Rise, Stellaris: Ghost Signal, Mortal Kombat 11, Magic The Gathering, and more!

Come back next week and join us for the start of our next month long project: The Worst of the Best! We'll be playing and discussing the "worst" game in an otherwise good series. First up: Pyre by Super Giant Games!
