Astro's Playroom, Hades and 2020 Holiday Gift Guide

Brett dives into the game that comes onto the PlayStation 5: Astro’s Playroom. It’s a short-lived experience but a ton of fun to play. It takes full advantage of the DualSense controller with a ton of exciting gameplay mechanics. Austin jumps into Hades as it was getting a ton of awards for The Game Awards and finds himself really into this rogue-like game from Supergiant Games.

We talk about Alanah Pearce’s new job with Santa Monica Studios working on the new God of War. We also explore the new updates coming to both Star Wars Squadrons and Marvel’s Avengers. PlayStation may also have their own version of Game Pass in the works.

Every year we have our holiday gift guide for gamers. This year we explore the best video game, hardware and software deals for 2020. It’s a lighter year overall, but we still have plenty to talk about despite being unable to pick up the mainline hardware.
