The regular crew is out so Paul holds it down with Nathan, who at the last minute asked if we could do a show. Little did we know, it would be almost 2 hours long!

Nathan has been revisiting Brutal Legend, checking in with his Waifu Shop, getting lost in Dune: Awakening and finding the perfect run in Resident Evil 3(2020) while Paul plays an survival horror throwback game Heartworm and Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound.

In news, Nintendo Indies are shown, the new game Contraband by Avalanche Games is cancelled and RedOctane is coming back to try to bring rhythm games back.

Also, Nathan has a list of issues and you're going to hear about them, damnit!
