PCP The Returnaling 〰 It Takes Four 〰 Periodically Gaming
Manage episode 310627355 series 3065154
In this podcast, we take deep dives into two new PS5 titles. It Takes Two is a corny romantic two-person local cooperative game. Returnal is an atmospheric first person shooter featuring bullet hell difficulty and no easy mode. Both games are long, but neither outlasts its welcome. How do these very different games handle pacing and story ambiguity? There are also reviews for Killer Queen and No Man's Sky: Expedition 2 (Beachhead).
