Brian, Rick and Matt dive deep into this '90's-era, comic-inspired, morally-devoid, open-world, super-dude action game and revel in the freedom of movement and wide range of epic combat options. Of course, no amount of car-throwing, copter-jacking or disease-tendrilizing can overcome brutal and blatantly manipulative boss fights, like the final one in Prototype.
Still, epic is good.
This episode also marks a new audio set-up, which will require some fine tuning. For anyone who's a fan of Rick's sultry voice: draw a bath, light some candles, and listen up.
Matt's music recommendation: Survivalism, Nine Inch Nails
Rick's reading recommendation: Black Hole, Charles Burns
Brian's food and drink recommendation: foie gras, gin with squid ink
Next week: We retro-review Secret of Monkey Island
