Jason hitches a ride back to the Borderlands-does the gameplay make up for the technical issues? Geoff is loving Silksong, but for how long? Chris is building roads to the future in Death Stranding 2. And Nintendo announces the latest in... Virtual Boy?
A little indie game came out, took the world by storm, and it is a buggy mess! See what our panel of gamers thinks about it and if it being so good is bad for the industry.
