Hack ‘n’ Slash!

Video Games

This week on your favourite gaming show, it’s Hack ‘n’ Slash week! Arguably one of the more underrated genres… is it an actual genre, or more of a style of combat? Either way, we can’t get enough of ’em, so Luke, Tom, Viv and Rachel discuss what is so appealing about the genre itself,some of their favourites and some games that you might not necessarily think are Hack ‘n’ Slash… but totally are!

Also on the show this week, a new type of investment crowdfunding is available, PAX Australia and EB Expo 2017 dates have been revealed and we also have three big reviews for you! Rachel has lost a giant chunk of her life playing Halo Wars 2, Luke gets frustrated all over again with the fantastically challenging Nioh and Viv gets her vertigo on all over again with Gravity Rush 2! Don’t miss it all in this fantastic episode!
