NXpress #33: ‘Super Star Wars’ and ‘Life Is Strange’
This week we bring you five segments so be prepared for a longer than usual episode. We begin with our predictions of the 2015 Video Game Awards before moving on to a quick holiday gift guide for our listeners to consider when shopping this Christmas season. We also take a look back at Super Star Wars which features mostly run and gun gameplay, although it has stages which feature other challenges, such as driving a landspeeder or piloting an X-wing. And closing off our show is a non-spoiler and spoiler discussion of Dontnod’s indie hit Life Is Strange. Joining us this week is Popoptiq’s Games Editor, Mike Worby. And be sure to check out the sweet NES hat Rick talks about at this link.
