The Tangent - 141: Super Mario Odyssey Spoilercast

It's just like old times this week. And by old times I mean, before we ever uploaded any podcasts. The original three are here to bring you the games we played this week and the news the only way we know how, drunk.

Anthony opens with a return to a recent classic, Pokemon Ultra Sun AND Ultra Moon. Yes, he picked up both. Not much has changed and that's really for the worse, because the text is still excruciating long winded. However, what he really wants to do is bring all his Pokemon into this game. We'll see how that goes. Brian lets us know that he beat Wolfenstein II and to be frank, he had some issues with the overall game. Bland characters, no interesting plot. You get the gist. I'd listen to hear his whole hot take on the game. He also stepped back into Horizon: Zero Dawn as it received an expansion pack, The Frozen Wind. I don't think Brian can get enough of it. Lastly, the three of us talk Super Mario Odyssey in this spoilerific discussion. Is this game as good as it's made out to be? I'd listen to find out.

In the drunken news it's basically pile on EA this week. And boy, do they deserve it. I'm sure you've heard the news, and if not, we give an excellent timeline of events, in a saga that rivals only that of Star Wars.
