You ready for this, Playa?<\/p>\n

Hello and welcome back to the show! Emmett Watkins Jr and Allan Muir have returned to talk about video games once again. This time, in celebration of Back 4 Blood finally releasing, they talk about some of their favorite co-op games of the last few years that have kept them going until the return of Turtle Rock Studio\u2019s classic zombie killin’ gameplay. We shout out everything from well-known classics to underrated indies, so let us know if we picked good ones!<\/p>\n

But first, in the Whatcha Playin segment, Emmett talks about his time with Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl and Slay the Spire and Al talks about his time with Back 4 Blood, New World, and Kingdom of the Dead.<\/p>\n
