Since we've all spent our last few weeks playing Breath of the Wild and Mass Effect Andromeda we decided to get a little caught up on some of the other great games that have come out over the past few months.  These are games we'll get to at some point this year, likely when our current games are finished up or perhaps another slow release period.

We spent quite a few more hours with the newest Mass Effect game, allowing us to give a clearer picture of what it has to offer. 

For this week we were supposed to do Breath of the Wild part 2, but our experiences and thoughts hadn't changed all that much from last week.  For a last minute plan B we figured we would give our first impressions of the early hours of Mass Effect Andromeda.

We talked about the Nintendo Switch last week, so this week we talk about it's only really important launch title Breath of the Wild.  It's the first open world Zelda game and has been getting glowing reviews from nearly everyone. 

There's also a bit of an echo in this week's episode.  Apologies for that, we're still trying to work out the kinks in our new setup.

The Switch is finally out and Switchmas for the TSA Podcast was split into Friday the 3rd and Monday the 6th.  Find out our thoughts on the weird console/handheld hybrid system from Nintendo.

This week Eric covers the PS4's next big exclusive Horizon, adding to an already substantial library of exclusive titles. 

Dan beat Life is Strange as part of his duty for 4 in February and figured it was a good opportunity to have a spoiler filled discussion with Corey and Will on it.

For Eric's Birthday we each bring him a topic of discussion from gaming (or not) that we think he'll like to talk about for his b-day.

For the second time in our history we cover a mobile game as our main topic...just don't expect too much more mobile from us!  We cover Fire Emblem Heroes, Nintendo's third foray into the mobile gaming market and hopefully their best yet.

Episode 289...recorded out of order and live from Dan's livingroom, complete with some background noise!  A little quieter for the recording of the main segment which was well after Nibblebits, Our Weeks, What We Played and Feedback.  Corey nicely covers Resident Evil 7 having played it almost to completion, and the newly released Fire Emblem Heroes is briefly covered during What We Played.
