The Weekly Stuff #363 – Hitman 3 Impressions, Genshin Impact, The Stupid GameStop Story & More!

It’s a loose and laid-back week on the show as we catch up on life events, cover one weird and frustrating piece of news, and discuss a few really great games, including our first spoiler-free impressions of Hitman 3, the triumphant capper to IO Interactive’s outstanding ‘World of Assassination’ trilogy, which has been one of our favorite series to discuss on the show ever since this incarnation launched in 2016. We also gush over the many wonders of Genshin Impact, and Sean tells us about coming full-circle on Yakuza with Yakuza 6: The Song of Life. We also cover the stupid GameStop stock story, which is the first and hopefully only time we ever have an extended discussion about fiscal markets on this show. TIME CHART:Intro: 0:00:00 – 0:01:30Stuff: 0:01:30 – 0:33:37News: 0:33:37 – 0:46:47Yakuza 6: 0:46:47 – 0:59:04Hitman 3: 0:59:04 – 1:33:55Genshin Impact: 1:33:55 – 1:52:54Subscribe to our YouTube Channel!Subscribe for free to 'The Weekly Stuff' in Apple Podcasts!Follow Jonathan Lack on Twitter!Follow Sean Chapman on Twitter!
