TMG Podcast #202 - Sid Meier's Sean Bean Tactics

May 28

We have most of the TMG present as we talk about the games that caught our attention recently. Miggy, after his 100+ playthrough of Final Fantasy 7 Remake, went back to the original game and found a new perspective of the 1997 JRPG classic.

Matthew shares his thoughts on Gears Tactics and XCOM: Chimera Squad together with Migs, who apparently is appreciating a KOF gacha game. Then, we have Carlos jumping into the Civilization VI rabbit hole and finding Sean Bean is everywhere in that game.

Times are changing and episode 202 features the new intro and outro music for this weekly podcast.
