Boarding the Hype Train: The Highs and Lows

This week's episode is all about the hype so set your expectations astronomically high and strap in. We've all felt it; the excitement coursing through our gaming veins, the buzz barely containable and then... the game comes out. Sarah, Pierre and Glenn are here to console you, to pick up the pieces and let you know you're not alone. Whether the game met those lofty hopes or whether it all came crashing down around you, they know the feeling. The Boys will also be chatting about the games they've played this week. Pierre's getting lost in every sense of the word in Blue Prince, Sarah's getting lost in one specific sense in Zelda and Glenn's losing his mind over one of the most anticipated games of the year.
