137: Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, Sonic Mania and Gamescom 2017

What do an old school platformer, Devil May Cry and Chloe Fraser have in common? Nothing really other than they're all parts of this week's games! We review Sonic Mania on the Nintendo Switch, the latest Sonic game which melds the best of the best together into one neat little package. We also review Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. This game is from the creators of Devil May Cry and is considered a AAA indie game. It's 1 part walking simulator, 1 part fighting game and 1 part awesome. Then we have the game we've all been looking forward to...Uncharted: The Lost Legacy. In this game, we play as Chloe Fraser with our sidekick Nadine from Uncharted 4. It's still a blast of a game and we share our insight. In our news segment, we talk about Microsoft in talks with Sony on crossplay, a new game reveal, some updates for Splatoon 2 and the HTC Vive price drop. Then Bethesda dropped the price of Brink because "why not?" Our discussion this week is on two big conventions. One was in our home of Dallas/Fort Worth: Quakecon 2017. It's the biggest LAN party around and we attended to check out what games they had to offer (included Wolfenstein 2), the competitions and of course the amazing PC rigs. Then we go over all the news and events from Gamescom 2017. It's quite a bit and we break it down the best we can. There's a lot of good stuff in there so you don't want to miss it!
