#60: High Praise

Absent Minded Podcast

Ghost of Tsushima released two weeks ago to critical and audience acclaim and Sucker Punch has been rewarded in kind as the title became the fastest selling original IP for PlayStation selling over 2.4 million units in just three days. Surprisingly though, the release is making some of the biggest waves in the country its story is based in, Japan, where it's doing unusually well among gamers that tend to spend more time on mobile devices than home consoles. Even esteemed Yakuza series director Toshihiro Nagoshi has nothing but nice things to say about the release, surprised only that a Western studio so successfully depicted the atmosphere of its era and setting. Travis and Ethan delve deeper into their time in Tsushima before following up on new information coming out after the Xbox Game Showcase last week, a milestone community achievement in Metal Gear Solid V, the return of G4, and the Nintendo "Gigaleak" the company suffered just days ago.
