The Topic
What makes a good video game sequel? We talk about sequels we like, sequels we don’t like, and sequels that we want to happen. We also touch on whether sequels are evidence of a lack of creativity or not.
What We Actually Talked About
What are the different types of video game sequels? What’s a good naming convention for sequels? Should we sing some classic Veggie Tales songs? Do you remember that Maximum Ride book about global warming? Is James Patterson the EA sports of authors? How does the Zelda timeline work?
