In 2021 when Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy launched for PC and current gen consoles, Bryan was experiencing a bit of Marvel fatigue. This made him initially skeptical when Clint urged him to play the latest Marvel video game property, saying it was one of his top games of the year. After learning more and seeing it was a linear 3rd person single player-focused action game (an increasingly rare genre these days), Bryan joined Clint in playing the game and absolutely loving it. Guardians of the Galaxy earns its place among the best games of 2021 by moving away from the MCU’s well trodden territory and blazing new trails for the members of Star Lord’s team. Combine that with subtle narrative, mechanical, and thematic interplay and you’ve got yourself a special game. Listen in to hear what made Clint and Bryan enjoy this game so flarking much!Three Word Reviews:Bryan - Flarking Good TimeClint - True GOTY 2021Show Notes:List of Licensed Music in GotGMusic:Everybody wants to Rule the World by Tears for FearsNever Gonna Give You Up by Rick AstleyDon’t Fear the Reaper by Blue Oyster CultSpace Riders with No Names by Star LordZero to Hero by Star Lord
