Money Heist would make a great video game
Taking it all the way to the bank
It's an important day in the Castle household calendar. Indeed, Matthew's been looking forward to today more than his own birthday (which was yesterday, by the way), because today is the day that the fourth season of Money Heist starts on Netflix. What is Money Heist, I hear you ask? Why, it's only the best thing on TV right now, and you should all be watching it instead of that damn Tiger King. Yes, the name is terrible, but this Spanish bank heist thriller (whose original name is the vastly superior La Casa de Papel, or The House of Paper) is one of the most heart-pounding, nail-biting and goddamn sexy shows I've ever seen - if only because its main mastermind, the Professor, is the coolest and most charismatic dude on the entire planet. And it got me thinking. Why aren't there more video games about bank robberies? And why are none of them as good as Money Heist?
