It was only a matter of time before we talked about the insanity that is Rust. There's nothing quite like running naked through a field with nothing but a rock to protect you from the elements... and dudes with Kevlar vests. We also talk at length about Bravely Detault and Hearthstone (the gateway drug to WoW... Pray for Krispy). We also discuss our thoughts on the recently debuted gameplay for Evolve, the next-gen co-op shooter from the creators of Left 4 Dead. Share your thoughts about the games and discussion topics featured on this week's podcast! We want to know what you think!

    Great podcast, I am really hyped for Evolve especially after how disappointed I was with LD42 hopefully this game is as fun and fresh as the original L4D was. Rocksteady making a game in general is a plus for regardless if its Batman or not but apart of me is hoping for a batman game outside the Arkham series I think its time to move on.

    All this talk of Rust has finally swayed me, if I had the money (and friends) I'd pick it up in a heart beat.

    That was a great discussion about Rust, especially the footage. I'm pretty torn on the game. I was listening to Cocktail Time and they were saying that there's a lot of gamers craving this kind of 'emergent' gameplay. I'm not so sure. The fact that you have to pour so much time into these games and there's such a high learning curve makes me think that these DayZ-esque games will only gain a foothold for a relatively niche audience. Personally, I'm not a big fan of these types of games, but I'm glad there is the option for those who want it. I just don't think these kinds of games will make the leap to more of a 'mainstream' audience.

    Great podcast guys. I really like Rocksteady Studios and all, but I actually really do want another Urban Chaos game before we ever get another Batman game haha.
