The TMG Podcast is back and is ready to talk about all of the video games new and old.

We are getting back into the groove and we are implementing a more focused approach to the podcast. Some big topics in the video game industry might show up every now and then but the games will be at the front of every episode, which will still be hosted by Carlos, Matthew, and probably a member from the team, or a guest or two to provide even more inside in the topics featured.

In episode 194, Carlos and Matthew express what they think about the latest ARPG now out in the wild -- Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem, the craziness within 2017’s Wolfenstein: the New Colossus, and how Early Access action rogue-like game Hades is on track to being yet another masterful title from Supergiant games (Transistor, Bastion).

While the dual-timeline mechanic is engaging, the story’s weak twists, forgettable characters, and technical issues hold it back. A nostalgic revisit, but not a standout entry in the series.
