A reimagining of the original Star Fox 64 adventure with a focus on the asymmetric action of piloting a vehicle and battling foes at the same time with an independent view. Features a mix of new and familiar locations with all new missions and gameplay elements.
"Negative Chromostereopsis" is one of the words I learnt this year and so are “post-truth” and “Brexit”. But while there's a lot of bad stuff to take away from this year you can also learn about the great year of games we’ve had and the SaladCast is ready to educate you. There’s also some sucky stuff for balance and fun but let’s celebrate! This special SUPER-LONG episode has us figuring the best of the best that we saw and honoring them with possibly the least prestigious GOTY on the internet.
Something something something podcast. Something something hurray!
In this podcast: Zac gets a large mug and new kettle, Rob figures out what he wants from Starfox, Dan Gears on, the point of Early Access is debated, Overwatch is judged, Call of Duty and Battlefield announce new games with bad names, Pizza is mentioned, more of The Witness gets witnessed and Rocket League gets the jam.
This one's for all you marathon runners. Had we put this out ahead of the race we’d have got the average person through around 13 miles. You can call your own cab from Tower Bridge though.
In this episode: Rob goes blind, Zac dislikes Overwatch, betas are not played, Factorio gets modded, Metal Gear sells a car, Starfox divides, puzzles get witnessed and Titanfall gets a sword.
To all those who went to EGX 2015, I have to clap my hands. Finally a show where the crowd isn't composed of annoying idiots who barge their way through to get anywhere, treading on toes as they do. You make music concerts look thoroughly uncivilised... which is probably the point in a lot of cases but I’m still impressed. See you next year my people.
Needless to say there’s a lot of EGX coverage this week but there’s just enough time for Zac to cover his tabletop adventures too.
