Arms

You all know what this is so let's not write an overwrought blurb and cut to the chase. It’s the Game of the Year 2017 as discussed and picked by the happysalad crew. There’s loads of games discussed with some level of enthusiasm but which will give rise to the most?

It's a late and dopey SaladCast this week as Zac had commitments. I know it sounds shocking but it’ll be less so when you find out what he’s committed to.

In this episode, Switch online news, the music of ARMS, Far Cry 5, wheel grinding, Rocket League, Assassin’s Creed history, Overwatch, increasingly spoilery Zelda stuff, some things we didn’t do and... Seaman?

Here's to all those to try and travel on a UK train service. We are a brave and stupid people, willing to submit to the will of those stupider still, the train operators. What we need is an escape from their tyranny. A device which can take us anywhere for less money with the added bonus of privacy and comfort. I present to you the Convenient Arrival Resolver or CAR.

In this episode: Nintendo Direct highlights, Battlefront 2, Aaero, Salt, Overwatch, Team Fortress 2, Call of Duty WW2, Enslaved and Zelda, twice.

With Microsoft shrinking into the corner and Sony standing smug, Nintendo decides now is the time to throw some punches. The Switch is on the way with many a "click" and a few ice cubes.

Also in this podcast: Owlboy, Creeper World 3, Homeworld, Marvel Vs Capcom 3, Ridge Racer 6, Overwatch, Shenzhen I/O, Scalebound and all the Switch games we care about.
