Challenging Games

Video Games

This week on the show, Luke, Fin, Ronnie and Jakob talk all about games that are difficult! Not just, like, ‘sort of hard’ – we’re talking about those games that make you want to throw your controller against a wall. The type of game that is intentionally created to be difficult to truly test your resolve. Isn’t that right, DARK SOULS?? So why do people play these games? What about them is so captivating in spite of the fact that they are so painfully challenging to play in the first place?

Also on the show, Ronnie gives his verdict on the new Ratchet and Clank, while Jakob goes back to his JRPG heritage with his review of Nights of Azure! On top of that, new Call of Duty and the new Battlefield were both announced this week, so the news is packed too! Don’t miss another fun episode of your favourite gaming show.
