Super Joystiq Podcast 020: Resident Evil 6, Hitman: Absolution, Nights into Dreams HD
This week's Super Joystiq Podcast loves killing zombies (disclaimer: may or may not include Resident Evil 6 zombies/infected/whatever).
First up, Xav, Ludwig, JC, and Richard hit the games they've been playing. Xav talks Hitman: Absolution, Richard and JC relive their childhoods with Nights into Dreams HD, and then it's on to Ludwig's feelings about Resident Evil 6.
After the break, Xav, Dave, and Mike Suszek discuss Xav's examination of sports games' apparent inability to teach the fundamentals of a sport. News closes the show with Alexander, Jordan, Jess, and Sinan covering the latest Nintendo Direct, Cliff Bleszinski leaving Epic Games, EA's recurring trouble making a basketball game, and more.
