There’s a new episode of The Blessing Show up right now. It’s ten minutes of time loop talk where Blessing goes through each of the big time loop games that have released this year and determines which one is definitively the best.
Also, In case you missed it, the first episode of The Arkham Files with Barrett premiered yesterday on YouTube.com/KindaFunnyGames. The first episode is all about how Batman: Arkham Asylum is still a masterclass in design to this day. Episode 2 premieres this Monday, October 18th, and it’s all about how Arkham City truly makes you feel like Batman. AND, to celebrate Arkham City’s 10th anniversary on the 18th, Barrett and Mike are streaming the entire game all day, starting after Games Daily, right here on twitch.tv/kindafunnygames!
