As big fans of Giant Squid games, we were both very excited to check out Sword of the Sea when it launched on PS Plus.

It took some time, but Brad finally made his way through the newest entry in the long running Ys Series, Ys X: Nordics. Adol is shipwrecked yet again but this time with ship combat and pirates! Is that enough to keep the series fresh and live up to the high standereds of Ys VIII and Ys IX?
Brad played through what might be the best rhythm game in years with Fresh Tracks. This Indie game based around skiing, music, and roguelike elements creates one of the most impressive games of the year. Not to mention an incredible soundtrack of original songs!
