The List: All The Games... Eventually

SUPER... HOT, SUPER... HOT, SUPER... HOT,... "The most innovative shooter I've played in years!" This week The List reviews another older game that Duncan chose, SuperHot from The SuperHot Team. Just about everyone says it's the most innovative shooter they've played in years (I promise we'll explain that joke in the episode); but, the truth is this game really was innovative and turned the shooter genre on it's head. If you played SuperHot, or even if you didn't, you can tell us all about your experience by writing to us at TheList@EngineWithin.com News Sources: https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2020-07-20-metacritic-now-blocks-user-reviews-until-36-hours-after-game-releases https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2020-07-16-twitch-orders-end-to-us-army-giveaway-promotion-on-its-channel Supported this week by: Hotcorp (SuperHot) You can support the show too!
