147: Hob, South Park, And Super Paper Mario

147: Hob, South Park, And Super Paper Mario Well, you know what they say, start the New Year with a bang. And by bang, we mean down one man. Wouldn't you know it? Gary broke his foot once again, and both of them, in another tragic volleyball incident. Guess you aren't able to play on ice. Food for thought. Let's get started, and first up is Stephen with Super Paper Mario. It has some issues, but he's only an hour or so in. The real issue was the batteries in his Wii remote. Garbage. The game looks good, has some of the same humor from previous games, yet falls flat so far on the combat system, as it was radically changed from Paper Mario for the N64 and Thousand Year Door. Next, Anthony, and he's got Dark Siders 2. It's pretty much a Zelda, but with simpler puzzles. The combat system isn't too bad either. He's enjoying it. Then there's Brian. He checks out Hob, the game in which Gary was signing the praises of. Brian? Not so much. You want to explore? Good luck finding anything. He also finds the combat system extremely frustrating. It looks good though. Then South Park: Fractured But Whole. It's a South Park game for sure. The humor is there and much more. The last Drunken News of 2017.
