Number 29 - Super Mario Odyssey, Saints Row IV, NiGHTS into Dreams…

This week:

Chris attempts to chip through his backlog, SMASHING through Thumper with the highest possible ranks, MEANDERING through the middle third of Alice: Madness Returns, RESETTING and RESTARTING Forager, one of the trio's favourites of yesteryear.

Minty YO-YOs between loving and loathing the new Paper Mario and the Origami King, praising some of the changes to the series wider design whilst resigning himself to finally accept that Mario's 'Story' may have finally been retired.

Jonathan eschews many of Minty's criticisms of Paper Mario, bowled over as he is by the game’s song and dance numbers, as well as Mario's car 'which is a big shoe'.

And then:

Entering the 20s now; oh boy, oh boy!

Hear how and why Jonathan managed to 100% the FIFTY HOUR platform epic Super Mario Odyssey, within a 72 hour stretch!

Gasp in amazement as Minty links a daily walk past a pair of bus stop advertising hoardings to the gleeful, self-referential escapism of Saints Row IV!

Let Chris wiffle and waffle about the near-unclassifiable NiGHTS Into Dreams…, (Jonathan's 30th favourite game!) and glow at the thought of Sega Saturn synchronicity and serendipity!
