Caty wrote about The World Ends With You when it launched last week, and she has some extended thoughts on the controls, the endgame, and the music right here.

Then Mike Williams joins in to talk about Assassin's Creed Odyssey's bonafides as an RPG, its romantic options, and the troublesome problem of microtransactions.
