How many AAA title games can you name where they took a right turn and spun the series off in a different direction? Probably a few right? But... were they good spin offs or just a waste of space used to capitalize on the game's name?

Well, fret not, because as they always do on Thursdays, The NPCs are here to debate and sort out the Weekly Topic. And if you haven't guessed it yet, this week's topic is on Top Spin Off Games. How about World of Warcraft coming off the heels of Warcraft III? Or Apex Legends filling a gap in the Titanfall series? Maybe even MegaMan Legends as a spin off to the MegaMan series? Well, you're only going to find out if you sit back, relax, and check out this week's topic episode!

It's good to play some video games right? And it's good to talk about them right? Well thankfully so, otherwise we wouldn't have a Tuesday episode...

In this week's Whadaya' Playin', The NPCs spent a lot of money on video games thanks to the multiple summer sales going on... Out of it, Kyle floats us through Raft,  Preston swoops through Batman Arkham Knight, and Travis jumps into the Midnight Channel in Persona 4: Golden!

In what may be just as explosive as the Songbird discussion, Preston, Kyle, and Travis dig in to a long list of 38 3rd Party Studios to determine who comes out on top! How does Bungie fair in the fight with Halo and Destiny? What about Arkane with Dishonored? Maybe Rockstar, with Red Dead and GTA? Well, you're going to just have to sit back and listen in as The NPCs determine the Top 10 3rd Party Studios!

Mo' Games, Mo' Problems, right?

In this week's Whadaya' Playin', Preston says a lot but not a lot (I think) about The Last Of Us Part II, Kyle dedicates the time to Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Travis loots his way through Minecraft Dungeons!

As the power of the hardware behind video games increases in quality, so do the worlds you come across. Living, breathing environments asking you to jump off the beaten path and explore what it has to offer and indulge outside of story-based missions. Well, that's what The NPCs talk about in this week's topic: Top Open Worlds in Video Games. Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, The Witcher III, No Man's Sky, and GTA V are just some of the games that give you the ability to explore and grow outside of linear play. Tune in and see how Preston, Kyle, and Travis take these games and more and determine their standings in this week's topic episode!

Welcome to another week of The NPCs playing games and tellin' you all about it! This week, Preston finishes up Final Fantasy VII and starts Last of Us 2, Kyle dives into a rather interesting(?) story about Sekiro while rushing along in Animal Crossing, and Travis fills in the crew on the Grounded demo!

The game is a Triple-A title - nothing should be able to stand in it's way of providing you with nothing but pure entertainment, right? That's right, until you hit that one thing that's either so broken or so out of place it puts you off, either temporarily or permanently. That's what The NPCs discuss in this week's topic: Top Games Ruined by One Flaw. Does Twisted Metal's PS3 release frustrate you because any character can drive any car? What about Jedi Fallen Order's somewhat unnecessary Uncharted-like climbing? Or even, what about the lack of a story in Titanfall? Listen in to find out what The NPCs thought!

Welcome to this week's topic episode! We discussed once before that some video games deserve to be movies, but until they get their chance on the silver screen our only option is to sit back and play through some of the most cinematic moments in Video Gaming. Think back to Mass Effect 3 when you were leaving Earth, watching the Reapers blast everything in sight. Or how about God of War 3, when you start the game climbing on the back of a Titan?!

Well that's what The NPCs discuss this week: Top Cinematic Video Game Moments!
