Duration: 01:08:17 • Size: 31.27 MB

It’s the last episode of the 100’s and what better way to close out the century than with discussions about game announcements? On this episode Matt and Lucas chat about the Disney/Marvel Video Game Showcase, the Ubisoft Forward including the Assassin’s Creed 15 year anniversary celebration, and the latest PlayStation State of Play. They also review LEGO Brawls and NBA2K23 (how could they not?). We hope you enjoy the show and we’ll see you at 200! Read more…

NBA2K23 (PS5)
There's a few things you can rely on in life; Death, Taxes and an annual release of 2K's flagship sports game, NBA2K. 2K's money printer has seen multiple upgrades and tweaks this year but some frustrating changes to the career mode leave us a little disappointed.
LEGO Brawls (PS5)
A LEGO brawler seems like a great idea but this one fails to innovate and falls a little flat. While customising your minifigs is pretty great the gameplay feels a little boring and uninspired. A bit disappointing and hard to recommend against it's competitors in the genre.

Lucas & Matt were joined once again by Karl (aka The Lyrical) from the Game Train Podcast for this episode to discuss the new Detroit: Become Human demo and of course the new massive exclusive for PlayStation – God Of War. This episode is a little long since the guys got a bit carried away about how much they enjoyed God Of War so grab a nice warm drink, make sure you are comfortable, relax, and enjoy the show.

Feel free to let us know if you have any thoughts about either Detroit Become Human or God Of War via email or in the comments below. Read more…

Review – God of War: Ascension

When God of War: Ascension was announced I couldn’t be more excited as I am a giant fan of the God of War series. I’ve played them all and loved them all, so when I heard about Ascension’s March 14 release, the day couldn’t come any sooner. Read more…
