RadioRadar+ podcast 35: The long Division episode

Games covered this week: The Division, The Witness, Marvel's Lego Avengers, Resident Evil Zero HD, Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain

The RadioRadar crew spends an episode unpacking The Division's dense New York plague-ground, the wobbly construction of Marvel's Lego Avengers and whether one of Resident Evil's oddest games holds up in an HD treatment. Ludwig finally talks about the ending of Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain (don't worry, there's a spoiler warning) and Anthony convinces Susan to both watch and never watch Terminator: Genisys.

Hosts: Ludwig Kietzmann, Susan Arendt, Anthony John Agnello
