Podcast: The best horses in games
Listen now or hoof it
Horses, that’s this week’s topic. Big galloping buddies full of teeth and flies. Brush ‘em, ride ‘em, put ‘em in your videogame. The RPS podcast, the Electronic Wireless Show, will appreciate it because this episode the pod squad are talking about their favourite saddlepals from the fantastical realms of this bewildering industry. Horses. They’re like big cats.
At least, they are according to Alice B. She reckons a good horse is the creepy horse from Kingdom Come: Deliverance, who appears behind you like a ghost when you call it. Brendan likes Argo from Shadow of the Colossus, even though it’s NOT ON PC YOU IDIOT. And Sin Vega joins us for the first time to sing the praises of the woman who runs around like a horse in real life. Which is ALSO NOT A PC GAME. Honestly, gang, you have one job.
You can listen on Spotify, or above, or go straight to Soundcloud where you can download it for later.
