Star Wars Time

Galactic Racer and Gears of War: E-Day launched on the same day, and both landed in the high 80s on Metacritic. In this solo episode, I start with Galactic Racer and ask the big question: does it live up to the best Star Wars game reviews in over 20 years? I get into what critics love about the speed, the handling, and the roguelite campaign, and where the game falls short, including no split-scre...

Matt flies solo this week while Young Nick is out, and there is plenty of Star Wars news and rumor to work through. The episode opens with the supposed leaked details on what The Acolyte season 2 would have been before it was cancelled, and what those details say about the story we never got. From there, the show moves to the report that Jon Watts could direct a film in Simon Kinberg's new Sky...

We're back after a week off, and we dug into one of the biggest debates in the fandom: does anything Disney has made actually deserve S-tier? We ranked every movie, TV show, and animated series since the acquisition, from the sequel trilogy through Andor and the Clone Wars final season, and yeah, we disagreed plenty along the way. If you want to know exactly where the chips fell and which proj...

Nick and I finally sat down and did something we've been putting off for a while: ranking our personal top 10 Star Wars games of all time. No arguing about which one is objectively best, just our own lists, our own history with these games, and the picks that shaped how we think about Star Wars gaming. Some entries were easy locks. Others sparked real disagreement, including a few old-school p...

Matt and Young Nick are back after a hiatus with a stacked news week, kicking things off with a full review of Star Wars Zero Company.

From there the guys break down a newly leake...

Young Nick had to bail last minute, so this week's duel ranking got weird in the best way. Matt still ran the full head-to-head format, ranking all 13 Star Wars movies worst to best, then flipping into "Nick mode" to guess exactly how Nick would have ranked his own list and where the two of them would have clashed. Every saga film, both standalone stories, the 2008 Clone Wars movie,...

Matt and Young Nick dig into the biggest Star Wars rumor of the week: a fresh wave of Starfighter leaks centered on Ryan Gosling's character, Cade, and how he connects to co-star Flynn Gray's character on the mysterious Jedi refuge planet Adaria.

Matt and Young Nick are back after two weeks off and they kicked things off with a quick detour into Dungeon Crawler Carl before getting into the main event. If you know, you know.

From there the guys dove deep into The Mandalorian and Grogu, breaking down the film as a full review and giving their honest takes...

Matt and Young Nick kicked off this episode by putting their pre-season Maul: Shadow Lord predictions and fan wants to the test.
