Other topics include Kevin finally watching Age of Ultron and Tenet,...

For the last several months, Xbox has been continuously throwing body blows at PlayStation. Whether it be the continued awesomeness of Game Pass, the purchase of Bethesda, or getting PlayStation's own first party MLB game onto Game Pass on day 1, Xbox has been aggressively going after the clear winner of the last generation. Now it seems that PlayStation is punching themselves as well. A Last Of U...

MLB The Show '21, from Sony San Diego, will be on Xbox Game Pass on day 1... Game Pass is officially out of control, and the guys give their full thoughts on what it could mean going forward. Other topics include, Ratchet...

Concerning reports about the upcoming closure of the PS3, PSP, and Vita stores were officially confirmed by Sony on Monday morning. The PS3 and PSP stores will go offline in July, followed by the Vita store closing in August. Of course these systems are extremely old, but this once again brings up the topic of Sony's near-complete lack of an acceptable solution for backwards compatibility. Simply...

2021 continues to be wild. The Snyder Cut is real and out, Bethesda is officially with Xbox (along with some confusing quotes from Phil Spencer), and a new TMNT beat-em-up is coming soon!

Housekeeping - 00:10 Should Kevin Play the Zelda Oracle Games? - 1:35 Kevin's Last Week - 3:30 Snyder Cut Spoiler-Free Review...

The guys get together coming off the high of last week's interview with Colin Moriarty to discuss the most concrete reports about the rumored Switch Pro. The rumored upgrades sound great, but does anyone really need a 4K Switch? Take 2 also shed some light on what this year's PS5/Series X port of GTA5 may look like, and it doesn't sound like a simple copy and paste move. They also give their thoug...

The interview we have been teasing for a few weeks is finally here! Colin is the main reason that we started this podcast over 5 years ago, and he was nice enough to sit down with us for an hour. We cover an array of topics including our dogs, Habroxia 2, Cyber Shadow, Bluepoint's next project, retro games, food, and more! This interview was the highlight of our podcasting career and we hope you e...

Nintendo held its first full Direct for the first time in nearly 18 months, days before the 35th anniversary of its second biggest franchise in The Legend of Zelda, and it was.... something. We love Nintendo, they have been a huge part of our lives since 1987, and we want them to be successful. It is because of that love that we have to call them out when it is merited. This is one of those times....

Many assumed that E3's cancelation last year (along with horrible leaks of personal data from the ESA) that the industry showcase was dead and never to return. For 2021 at least, that isn't true as the ESA is planning a 3 day digital event in June and hopes to have all it's heavy hitters in place for said event. The guys are excited to have another year of their predictions special, but can't shak...

EA announced this past week something that many thought would never happen, that they were bringing back a College Football game!

We also got a release date for the Mass Effect Legendary Edition, along with a list of the enhan...

The guys have been looking forward to the release of Cyber Shadow ever since it was first announced. A retro side scrolling action game that seems to combine Ninja Gaiden, Contra Hard Corps, and Mega Man?!? LET'S GO! In reality, Cyber Shadow is one of the most difficult games in recent years and how you respond to that difficulty will determine your enjoyment level of the game. Sean has beaten it,...

Last week, Capcom held their Resident Evil Showcase giving a lot of details about Resident Evil Village, the reveal of the RE: Verse multiplayer component, a PS5-exclusive Maiden demo, and hints at another demo coming in the near future. Reports are also suggesting that we all may be waiting longer than expected for the inevitable RE4 Remake. The guys run through everything that was revealed, incl...

For the first time in seemingly forever the guys actually had some news to discuss, and said news was pretty big. Not only was Lucasfilm Games announced, but they also announced a new open world story-driven Star Wars game from Ubisoft, and a freaking Indiana Jones game from MachineGames! Both games are seemingly years away, so for now all we can do is speculate on what they will entail, and what...

2021 is shaping up to be quite the year for gaming, as the new generation of consoles continue to gain traction with some monster titles coming over the horizon (heh!). Before the year gets away from them, the guys wanted to sit down and make some predictions for what is to come this year. From surprise reveals, to delays, to acquisitions, and game of the year predictions, the guys run the gamut w...

It's time for what is always one of our favorite episodes of the year, our Top 10 episode! Sean still hasn't recovered from Kevin's bombshell of Death Stranding being his 2019 Game of the Year, but will the guys be in more alignment on what their 2020 choices are? From 8-bit throwback adventures, to PS5 showcases (with some The Last Of Us Part II arguing thrown in), this episode doesn't disappoint...

The guys are back after their Christmas break to recap everything from the last couple of weeks. They played A LOT over these two weeks, including Miles Morales, Fenyx Rising, Ghost of Tsushima, Demon’s Souls, Black Ops Cold War and even Uncharted 4!

The Game Awards is in the books for another year and, while the show is still a little bit too long, there were some awesome reveals to talk through along with going back over our predictions for the show. Before all of that, the guys have to talk about the disastrous console launch of Cyberpunk 2077... 343 also broke their silence earlier in the week, confirming that they are targeting fall 2021...

It's time for our annual tradition of prediction the winners of Geoff Keighley's baby, The Game Awards. Before predicting the winners, the guys run through what reveals they hope to see. Metal Gear Remake? Breath of the Wild 2? Metroid Prime 4? In reality, they're probably setting themselves up for disappointment. Other topics include OSCAR ISAAC BEING CAST AS SNAKE, their continued journey throug...

After being announced a year-and-a-half ago, undergoing an interesting name change, and a challenging dev cycle due to COVID-19, Immortals Fenyx Rising is finally here. The guys were lucky enough to get the game early (thank you Ubisoft!) so they could entertain you with their impressions so far on this combination of old school God of War and Breath of the Wild. Sean also beat Demon's Souls this...

Watch Dogs: Legion (one of Kevin's most anticipated games this year) is finally here, but unfortunately it isn't living up to the hype. Kevin details the myriad technical issues he has experienced, along with his thoughts on the "play as anyone" gimmick, and the rest of the game so far. The guys also played through the Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity demo to see if it would tickle their fancy bef...

As we get closer and closer to the kickoff of Next-Gen, the slow news weeks roll on. We are definitely in the calm before the storm, but that doesn't mean there's nothing for us to talk about! Let's talk through our gaming habits, Kevin revisiting a game from 2019 to see if it got any better, PS5's fan being optimized over time, and interesting job openings at Kojima Productions and Sucker Punch....
