On this week’s Video Games 2 the MAX its the final big release window of the year and Sean is discussing both Super Mario RPG Remake and Persona 5 Tactica with early impressions of both titles.
Randy Isbelle also joins Sean once again for this episode and he’s been playing some games too. So he’ll have thoughts on the indie darling Cocoon, as well as some of the big recently released games Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, Super Mario Wonder, and Alan Wake Remastered as well.
Also, The 2023 Game Awards Nominations are out and the guys give out some early predictions, which games were truly snubbed, should the categories be expanded, and if changes should be made to the voting process.
Plus, thoughts on the most recent Nintendo Indie World Direct, unfortunately, more layoffs at Digital Bros and Embracer Group, The Witcher animated series, and more!
