It may be a new year but we’ve still got the same old Drop Bears over here. Lucas & Matt return bright-eyed and bushy-tailed from the holiday season with an abundance of news and game reviews including Fortnite: LEGO, Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, God of War: Ragnarok Valhalla DLC, and Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. We hope you enjoy the show!

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown (PS5)
Prince of Persia is not only one of the best games Ubisoft has released in a while, but is also one of the best metroidvania platformers in recent memory. This game is exceptionally crafted with excellently balanced platforming and combat, and smooth seamless animation whether playing on PS5 or Switch. The first must-play game of 2024.
Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (PS5)
Avatar feels like another in a long line of Ubisoft checklist open world games. While it can be fun at times and the world of Pandora is beautifully realised, it unfortunately suffers from pacing issues, bugs, and repetitive quest design.

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.

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.
