EXP Podcast #443: Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice Debrief

Maybe she's born with it...

This week we take a journey to the north and debrief on Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.  This game was flying beneath our radar, but we couldn't be happier that we made the time to play it.  Do yourself a favor: grab some headphones, carve out a few hours, and thank your lucky stars that you don't live under the constant threat of being stalked by Fenrir.

EXP Podcast #442: Titanfall 2 and Mecha Boredom

"I'm cool, right?"

This week on the EXP Podcast, we pay a visit to Titanfall 2 and wonder where everyone went. Was it the dull brown of the landscape that cleared the room? Would this game be more popular if it had brighter colors, cooler names, or banana rockets? The answer is clearly yes.

Everything is better with banana rockets.

EXP Podcast #441: Considering a Comeback

Come back!  This guy's been missing you.

Sometimes, you play a game once and then bounce off, never to return.  Other times you see the potential, but are put off by a weird mechanic.  And sometimes you're just too damn lazy to leave the house and interact with other human beings.  This week, we discuss some games we're considering returning to.  Some of them we've finished, others we originally gave up on.  We also invent a new Pokemon Go mechanic that would be as dangerous as it would be entertaining.

The battle lines are drawn...

The endless war between Mayonnaise and Ketchup continues in this EXP Podcast debrief on Splatoon 2.

Ketchup listeners, this one's for you. Mayo fans, maybe come back next week.

EXP Podcast #439: Nothin' but a PUBG Thang

Looks like the Resident Evil 4 dlc is live

Summertime means relaxing on an island.  After murdering the 99 other people on that island of course.  This week we dive out of a plane and into Player Unknown's Battlegrounds.  Along the way we learn about abbreviations, Twitch drama, and that there's a high correlation between a game having someone's name in the title and its quality.
