Assassin's Creed vs. a Train That Does Backflips

from The Besties Hosted by Russ Frushtick, Chris Plante, Jeff Grubb

This week’s games represent two ends of the video game spectrum. On one side, we have Denshattack, an indie game about a train that performs skateboard-style tricks in a fantastical version of Japan. On the other end, we have Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced, a decadent remake of a beloved but dusty Ubisoft open-world game. Guest Jeff Grubb from Giant Bomb helps us chat about these two very different delights! Get the full list of games (and other stuff) discussed at www.besties.fan. Want more episodes?
