What I find funny, like Marcel said, is that Max Payne 3 is a really good game. But it's the worst Max Payne of all. It's so generic and spiritless compared to the first and second one. Alan wake was an interesting game too but, I don't know about you Marcel, I find it not as good as Max Payne can be. Mainly because I find the gameplay of Max Payne more enjoyable. And this is why Control is so amazing, it's a remedy game, and the gameplay and gunplay are as good as they where in Max Payne. I'm not even gonna talk about the level design, staging and the amazing use and integration of all the different media in the game world. It feels good to get remedy back after Quantum Break. I was really desapointed on this one. It was interesting, but the game was too short for the price. The gameplay was a bit outdated (even if it was fun) and cutting the gameplay with 25 min of a TV serie every 2 hours, breaks the rhythm of the game. BUT it's still not a "bad" game (especially if you get it for 10 or 20€). Hope you will forgive me this heresy Marcel. The second half about the xbox game pass was so interesting we need a full episode on the subject! (or we riot, like when Matt was away). And finally what Bastian said about Borderlands 3 and Fortnite is so true. I never thought of it this way, you're absolutely right. The visuals of Borderlands 3, the humor, the loots system (even visually the drops are really close) and the genre of the game. I can really imagine Fortnite players going to Borderlands for PvE experience between 2 games of Fortnite. With all the advertising inside Fortnite this could explain the huge success on the epic store. Really interesting episode as usual =)
