Summary

So, listen, we recorded this while Respawn Entertainment--creators of Titanfall and Titanfall 2--were teasing there soon to be released battle royale Apex Legends. So blame that on the loose control that Austin keeps on today's episode of Waypoint Radio, which ranges in topic from yesterday's "Big Game" to M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening. I know what you're thinking. Yes, we do have another podcast explicitly for that topic. Oh, well. Sometimes it goes like that.

We do eventually get to video games, though! Hear Austin and Patrick describe what we're enjoying (and not) about successor-to-Advance-Wars WarGroove, Natalie give her Kingdom Hearts 3 update, and Rob introduce us to another detective board game called Chronicle of Crimes. And yes, eventually, Austin does talk about how great Titanfall 2 is, and shares his hopes for Apex Legends while he's at it.

Discussed: The Happening, Super Bowl LIII, Apex Legends, Titanfall 2, WarGroove, Kingdom Hearts 3, Chronicle of Crimes
