One Tap Tennis seems to have gotten a hold of everyone this week because Brian starts his Under Your Thumb with the game. It's a much tougher than he had first thought. Then he got more time with Doom on the PS4, thanks to Anthony, and there is a lot to say. Speaking of Anthony, he's up next, but only with one game this week, Witcher 3. The gang agrees, the game still looks beautiful. Justin throws some surprises this week. Yet another tower defense game, Toy Defense, is Justin's opening game. We all groan, but he is confident it is a great version of the game. We'll see... His first real surprise, LA Cops. Justin's memories of the game from PAX East 2015 were positive, yet playing it now... not so much, sadly. He wraps up with another PAX East 2015 game, White Night. A game he wanted to not like, but loved. Gray ends this week's Under Your Thumb and he's played XCOM: Enemy Within and Trials of the Blood Dragon. One there is better than the other. But which?

A lot going on in the Drunken News on the Nintendo side this week. We discuss more Zelda: Breath Of The Wild news and more NX news. We've also got Might No.9's failure, Halo 5: Guardians Warzone Firefight update, and the Sonic Team working on a new game.

E3's over but that doesn't mean the game discussion has to end. Brian leads off this week and he begins with his time with Doom. Seems to be a hot topic these days. Anthony goes off and grabs a ROM Hack called Dragon Ball Z Team Training. A Pokemon-like game. Justin finds himself back in Skyrim, hopefully he'll be able to put it down. He's also been spending his time with Overwatch (like most of us have) and he stumbles on a mobile game. One Tap Tennis. It's pretty good. Gary's still chasing that Witcher III DLC, but then hits us with a surprise. It's Limbo. Then Just Cause 3. Can't say those two belong together.

E3 is approaching and before we get to our hopes and fears for this year's conference we have an exciting Under Your Thumb. First, Brian weighs in this week with his thoughts on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan. The scales are tipped heavily toward one side. He also finishes Severed for the VITA, stumbles upon the game Downwell which is also for the VITA, and ends with Overwatch, where Gary, of course, jumps in to discuss. Moving on from Overwatch, Gary also moves past Uncharted 1 into Uncharted 2. Let's just say he's finally seen the light. Then he put in some time with the Witcher III DLC, Blood & Wine. Lastly, rounding out this week is Anthony. He gives NBA 2K12 a try and finds himself in the "Bri-Cry" section of gaming with Gone Home.

Well, here's the good news: we get Fallout 4 talk out of the way at the top of the show. The bad news? There are some strong dissenting thoughts on the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game. Is it a $50 game? Is it? IS it? Who knows. But beyond that, there is plenty of Overwatch discussion, and Gary wraps up his complete Uncharted 1 play through. Hard to believe, but he's one of the few. Maybe 16%. We don't understand how.

We also have plenty of news this week to talk about, and two listener questions. Do we settle the sandwich debate? You'll have to listen to find out.

Brian's up first this week and he can't stop going on about how pretty Uncharted 4 is. The best Uncharted game? Who knows. Only 16% do, but he's already making his way through the game a second time. After that, he talks Overwatch and Justin shares his thoughts on the game too. Seems like they're having fun. What's also fun (relative) is hearing about more Fallout 4. So, buckle up for that. But don't worry, Anthony's got a few tricks up his sleeve. First, Shadow of the Beast. A game Gary talked about in Under Your Thumb last week. Followed by the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game. A better game than people are making it out to be.

Hey, guys, you know, how are you this week? Life treating you good? Everything going well? Things are definitely going well for Gary as he leads off Under Your Thumb this week with a bit of a shocker. After that wears off, he's got Pokemon X, A Link Between Worlds, extensive Doom thoughts, and Shadow of the Beast. Justin returns to Uncharted 4 and is already on a second playthrough, partly because he took the easy way out to begin with. But you know who doesn't take the easy way out? Anthony. And he's still got plenty of Dark Souls 3 to talk about, and of course the new Fallout 4 DLC. Him and Justin lead an in-depth conversion about it, while Stephen and Gary proceed to drink heavily in boredom.

Then in The Drunken News, I'm sure there were some discussions about Nintendo and the NX, a bad Uncharted 4 review, single-player campaigns being cut, and a few other topics we were drunk enough to handle.

Gary kicks off Under Your Thumb this week and he's back at some more Battleborn. Plus, I guess, because he's a glutton for punishment, Gary goes back and plays Uncharted 1. At least it's The Nathan Drake Collection, if that could ever help that game... But he also spends some time with Doom, with a lot to say about it. Brian follows up with Severed on the PSVITA and then tells us all about his time with Uncharted 4, which leads up to Justin and his time with the game. Newsflash: Sully's still a boss. Finally, wrapping up the segment is Anthony. He's got more Dark Souls 3 things to talk about it. Surprise, Surprise.

In The Drunken News this week we talk more PS4 Neo, Pokemon Sun and Moon, Free-To-Play, price drops, and more (probably less).

Anthony leads off this week with more Dark Souls 3 talk, along with Tropico 5 and Final Fantasy IV. Next up is Justin, and he questions just what was going on at Nintendo of Japan with Paper Mario: Thousand-Year door. He then transitions to Battleborn where Gary jumps in and shares his thoughts. Gary also got a chance to play some Overwatch. Finally, Brian returns and tells us about the Gears 4 mulitiplayer beta, Racket & Clank, and Severed for the long forgotten PSVita.
