However a conversation about the newest iteration of Far Cry sparks a discussion of Religion's place in gaming.

Press X returns for another week of talking about video games and video game culture, as well as deal with Cameron's increasingly more awful transitions.(We kid...but not really they suck but good on him for trying). Avery discusses the rabbit hole of a brand new Overwath event, DJ gives Drawn to Death the big old meh and Cameron abandons the Mass Effect train for the good ole S.S. Persona 5. But beyond the news of the week, the Fate and the Furious came out and the gang stop talking about games to have an indepth discussion about how they feel about the latest iteration in the blockbuster franchise. Also apologies for any technical hicups, we're trying a different recording set up and it caused some unforseen technical sound issues.

Heavy Spoilers Warning this is a review discussion and Avery, Cameron and special guest DJ get into the nitty gritty of the story of Horizon as well as post game reflections about its strengths and weaknesses as a game.
