Description
GAME NUMBER 100 ON THE PODCAST! And what a unique game to talk about for #100! Killer7, by Suda51's Grasshopper Manufacture and Capcom, is a game unlike any other. An unholy mashup of rail shooter, adventure game, crime fantasy and political drama, you'll never play another game quite like this. Joining me for this episode is Andre from Fine Time podcast, which you can check out HERE or on your favorite podcast app. I highly recommend starting with their great two part series on the Capcom Five (Killer7, Resident Evil 4, Viewtiful Joe, P.N.03 and Dead Phoenix)!
