Ep. 3 - Yoshi and the Back-yarn-igans

"That Odious Beast, Gaming" is back- this time with a brand new recording setup- and the scent of 2019 games is heavy in the air. So grab some headphones and take a walk with us as we discuss some of the games we're most excited for in 2019.

In this episode:

We take a stab at recording the show remotely;

Jonathan swings into new zones in Avalanche's 2015 game, Mad Max;

Jonathan laments the map distribution in PUBG;

Logan expresses complex feelings about Super Meat Boy;

Logan revels in his role as "Staryu Master" in Pokemon Let's Go: Eevee Version;

We discuss development of gore in Resident Evil 2;

We have a superficial talk about the convoluted nature of Kingdom Hearts;

We read some Google questions about Crackdown 3;

We desperately reach to remember the title of Yoshi's Wooly World;

Kirby gets no love;

And we take a ton of time sorting through every other confirmed 2019 title that interests us.

Ep. 2 - Jonathan is the God of War

Welcome to 2019, everybody! At That Odious Beast, Gaming , we're back, and ready to roll into a new year of good vidya games. But first, let's take a moment to talk about what we liked- and maybe didn't like (lookin' at you, Battlefield V war stories)- from the year that just escaped silently into the night. In this episode: Jonathan talks about his time with Avalanche Studios' Mad Max , and Logan misses a pun he really wanted to make. Logan dives deep into Subnautica talk. We take a look at the verb-puzzle presented by Motion Twin's Dead Cells. Jonathan ruminates on the big yikes that is The Last Tiger. And then, we dive into a list of everything we played in 2018. Stay with us, because there are some good ones. (And, in Jonathan's case, several that weren't as good.) You can find us on Twitter at @loganmathew401 and @JonathanNielson
