This year has seen a lot of good games come out, but not all the same ones. There are so many titles that you have to pick and choose which one is best. It's especially tough with indies like breath of the wildee or sabel because they're more 'ground breaking' than others. This kind of diffusion isn't just for gamers - it also makes me feel like i've missed out on half of the good games this year.
As we near the thrilling climax of 2021, we're taking a seasonal approach to see what games stood out over the last three (or so) months. Joining us this week is Kirk Hamilton (of the Triple Click and Strong Songs podcasts) to dive into this giant leaf pile that is the fall release calendar.
Games discussed: Metroid Dread, Resident Evil 4 VR, Deathloop, Outer Wilds: Echoes of the Eye, Death's Gambit Afterlife, Forza Horizon 5, Inscryption, Archvale, The Binding of Isaac Repentence, and Wildermyth.
