157: Monster Hunter, The Banner Saga, and Indie Game Discussion

Hey, we're nothing else but consistent every week, regardless of who shows up. This week it's a three man cast, and two of the regulars with Brandon Cox stepping in for a missing Brian and Gary. But, it's okay, we make due anyway. First up is Anthony, and he's got Monster Hunter on the brain, yet again. Stephen is still trying to wrap his head around how intense the game actually is, and Brandon really can't really make heads or tails of it. That's to be expected, though. Then Brandon's up and he has a fair amount of indie games to talk about. Guacamelee!, The Banner Saga, Limbo, and Gone Home are all on the agenda. Plus, we have a great discussion on the importance of indie games and their benefit for gamers and the industry.

The Drunken News this week mostly consists of the Nintendo Direct, so don't miss out on that!
