So many games and so little time! The guys are back once again and they have pile of games to review including Knack 2, Project Cars 2, Morphite, Pinball FX 3, Everybody’s Golf, and of course more discussion about Destiny 2. Lucas and Matt also had the pleasure of going to EB Expo after it’s prodigal son return to the Gold Coast for the first time since it’s inaugural show in 2011. They share their thoughts on the event as well as inevitable comparisons to PAX Aus. We hope you enjoy the show! Read more…

Knack 2 (PS4)
An excellent sequel which improves upon the flaws from the original. A new co-op mode adds another layer to the game, and extra challenge modes add a bit of fun replayability. A really fun game and great for small kids.
Morphite (PC)
Space exploration shooter which has similarities to No Man's Sky but with clunky gameplay and a lack of polish. Lots of content to explore but it gets repetitive quickly. A little interesting but ultimately underwhelming.

Project Cars 2 (PS4)
Visually stunning, with really strong sound design, but let down by the

Lucas
The Podfather/Convo Controller
Super salesman by day, Batdad and Gamersutra by night. As a self-confessed technology pacifist, he prefers to sit on the console-war fence and play games on his PC.
Matt
PlayStation Fanboy/Motormouth
Electrician by trade and yet also highly skilled at finding time to game around work and family commitments. A PlayStation fanboy with a platinum count and obvious podcast bias to prove it. Thinks DC is clearly superior to Marvel. Has been known to rant.
