Now I know what the Breaking Bad cops felt as they chased Walter White and Jesse Pinkman through the deserts of New Mexico.

I love the references in video games, movies and series. Not because they are happy (that too), but because of the mental pleasure their discovery provides. I usually expect them from any business, but I admit I wasn't prepared to find them Too bad during playing Expeditions: MudRunner game To present you his analysis.

Expeditions in Arizona's Grand Canyon led me to discover a crashed plane and a ghost town that could be very clever references to Uncharted and Red Dead Redemption respectively. I know they're not, but let me enjoy making a little space in my mind for these silly things.

After successfully completing several quests and building some bridges, I took a look at the expedition list out of curiosity and to make some notes for analysis. What a pleasant surprise I was when I discovered an expedition called Too bad! My eyes grew wide. My first instinct was to grab my phone to send a photo to a friend, but a faint voice rang in my mind: “Block, you idiot! You can’t say anything.” But now I can.

Expeditions: MudRunner x Breaking Bad

I know what many of you are thinking: “Surely the only reference is the name of the expedition.” Well, no! The mission description says that his name is a biologist Brad Cook He took his mobile laboratory into the desert without warning and after ingesting unwanted substances. Cook is a reference to Jesse Pinkman's nickname: Cap'n Cook, Brad is a scientist (a biologist, not a chemist) and I don't think I have to explain the rest.

Being on an exploratory and research mission, I'll go with the trusty Cotco Canyon SR-i. I pull it out quickly. It's the perfect opportunity to try out the Don 71, the stroller that reminds me of the panda seat my mother had when she was little. I loved that car with all my heart…even though its safety measures were almost anecdotal.

I equipped my Don 71 with protections and other accessories to make it as practical as possible. My plan was to record the entire expedition for the interesting article, which you already have on VidaExtra, and tell you all about this: the experience of finding the reference and what the mission is like.

You choose an exit point at Arizona. I use the drone to explore the terrain and create a mental route. I could put in waypoints, but I like the gameplay I share to be as clean as possible. I activate four-wheel drive and make the first descent until I reach the river. There, I deliver the materials needed to build the two least identical platforms in history and thus form an improvised bridge. I almost flipped over when passing through them.

I climb up a small stone path and reach the first investigation point. The drone's camera is placed in a top-down view. I have to align the green circles correctly to define the tire paths. Information reveals that Brad went far into the desert. I am neither short nor lazy, I continue on my way.

A small trail with funnel shaped rocks almost led to my doom. I try to go in a straight line, the shortest path, thus breaking Showrunner's golden rule: the shortest path is usually the path that pays the most. Claudico after wasting time and fuel. I ended up passing through the area on the left and progressing without too many problems (some scratches) to the exploration area. Take out the drone and complete the ratio by flying over the area.

Now, I face what looks like the final stage: a valley with a winding canal and some bushes. I find an old white tent and caravan next to a small lake. My eyes widened again: “It’s Walter and Jesse’s caravan Too bad“I say almost screaming out loud.

It's not just a similar caravan. It's not even a pre-determined caravan. There are two chairs and three blue barrels around her, the curtains are drawn and the car door has the same sheet metal-covered openings as the original caravan in the series. The only thing missing is the smoke to make it absolutely perfect.

I got $12,450, and the joy of finding Walter White and Jesse Pinkman's caravan (Too bad) in Expeditions: MudRunner game. For over a week I've been dying to tell this story, especially since this video game will likely become one of the greatest forgotten games of 2024. How I enjoyed it! I will continue to enjoy it.
