Author: Sheridan Media December 11, 2024 Duration: 59:26

Welcome to Active Reload! On this week's episode, James and Grant have a bunch of first impressions for you! Starting off, the guys talk about their experiences with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, from the stealth to the accessibility they break down what the positives and negatives so far. Also, Marvel figured out about hero shooters about ten years too late and made their own! Grant and James both give some differing opinions on that new release. For the final first impressions, Path of Exile 2 has released a paid $30 beta for what is going to be a free to play game(?????), and according to Grant it's really good! Finally, a new trailer for the new NetEase game Ananta came out and very obviously was spoofing on both Grand Theft Auto 6 and Spider-Man and it's got a lot of people excited, but the boys are both skeptical.
