NQcast60 – Mechs-ican Staring Frog


Listen Later


With fan-favorite BJ out on assignment, we use this opportunity to talk about video games. Included in the discussion are Titanfall, South Park: The Stick of Truth, Thief, Infamous: Second Son, Dark Souls and lots more. Things move at a breakneck pace this month, so strap in.

NQcast60 – Mechs-ican Staring Frog
 
First half!


* 3:03 Titanfall (Chuck and Harlo drop some mechs on their Xbox Ones and have mixed feelings on the Next Big Thing™ in online gaming.)
* 28:01 Live From Playstation (Harlo watches in horror as he fails to comprehend people hanging out on their couch and talking to their TV in Playroom on PS4s.)
* 33:34 Infamous: Second Son (Harlo tags Seattle as Deslan in this superpowered version of Marc Ecko’s Getting Up: Contents Under Pressure. Or isit a less funny Saints Row 4? Just pick a good or an evil playthrough. Don’t gray it, dude!)
* 42:20 South Park: The Stick of Truth (The whole crew beat a game, and everyone really enjoyed it! But we’re South Park fans, so we weren’t offended by the extreme insanity of the second half.)
* 1:00:22 Thief (Harlo likes his stealth but doesn’t like the dated gameplay and animations of this reboot. Take the time to listen to the random conversations, though!)


Second Half! (1:07:44)


* 1:07:54 Hawken (Harlo is still in a mech mood so he checked out this free-to-play mech fightin’ game. It’s free, so give it a try!)
* 1:12:02 Ryse: Son of Rome (Chuck loans it to Harlo, and he thinks it’s pretty but repetitious. However, it has a great villain death, so that’s gotta count for something, right?)
* 1:14:46 Lego Marvel (Harlo borrows another game from Chuck and realizes the Lego games need to explain their mechanics, systems and icons better for people that haven’t played a bunch of other Lego games.
* 1:20:19 Dark Souls (Maki jumps into the world of suffering on PC. He gets the appeal but still wishes you didn’t need to memorize a wiki to actually accomplish anything in it.)
* 1:34:19 The Banner Saga (Harlo “loans” this game to Maki using Steam Family Sharing. While it looks gorgeous, neither of them could get into the story or the complex strategy gameplay.)
* 1:37:41 The Swapper and Antichamber (Maki hits the brick wall of his own IQ and puzzle-solving abilities. And due to the nature of these games, he can’t even figure out how to ask for help. Moron.)
* 1:41:11 Dead Nation: Apocalypse Edition (Harlo talks Chuck into playing this PS+ game, just by mentioning Hunter: The Reckoning!)
* 1:43:56 Splinter Cell: Blacklist (Harlo enjoys the co-opiness of this sequel.
