Dialogue Options-A Video Games Podcast

Greetings listeners! As mentioned last episode, this week's show was just so big that we decided to break each segment down into individual episodes. You can find all the news in our Dope or Nope episode prior to this one. This part contains our Quest Log, which we decided to do a bit differently with Brod joining us on the show. We start off by checking in with our two PlayStation 5 owners, a...

Greetings listeners! First up I wanted to give you a heads up about how this episode is going to work, we were once again joined by Brod from Hunting Seasons and had such a blast recording that we ran a little long. So we've decided to make consuming the episodes easier we'll break it up into two parts! This part contains another juicy dose of Dope or Nope as we cover the recent State of P...

Greetings listeners! This week on the show Joel and Kyran are joined by their good friend, who they definitely don't pay for the right to say that, Brod of the Hunting Seasons Podcast. We've combined forces to work our way through Nintendo's return to the general Nintendo Direct format for the first time since September 2019, we knock out the headlines with the power of a fully functio...

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode of the podcast, this week focusing entirely on the games we've been playing! Now that Game of the Year is finalised for us we can start moving into more regular episodes. Kyran has been playing the PS5 version of Remedy's Control and has spent a little time living the life of a deadly shark in Maneater. Finally to round out the episo...

Greetings listeners! It's that time of the year again! Join us as we sit down and talk about the greatest games of the year 2020, except with a small change. This year both Joel and Kyran sat down and wrote up their Game of the Year lists and recorded them ahead of putting together this year's show. Joel's list starts at 9m54s and Kyran's at 24m28s. It was our first time really try...

Greetings listeners! A new year is upon us! Hopefully one that is kinder to all of us, especially after 2020 spent so much time kicking our collective butts. We decided the best way to welcome in the new year was by taking a look back at 2020's video games and doing our annual video game battle royale (which we actually missed last year, foolishly). So we've assembled a list of 22 game tha...

Greetings listeners! First of all, sincere apologies for the delay! As mentioned in the episode, we had fully intended to record this last week but Kyran came down a little sick so we had to push back. We're back now though!  In our Quest Log we take a look at the highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 and our very early impressions about the game. We also use this opportunity to look at the disast...

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode and its one of the one's we look forward to for most of the year. The 2020 Game Awards, hosted by Geoff Keighley, are right around the corner and that means it is time to sit down, scour through the nominees and pick who we think will win. We've got stakes and the winner will get to pick a game for the loser to play, which we'll lo...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode we're only talking about one game! Sucker Punch's PS4 exclusive from back in August, Ghost of Tsushima. We're joined by our good friend, Brendan Hill, to talk about how much fun we've been having with the free multiplayer expansion that the game received a month or so ago. The mode contains a raid (which we're yet to do), four-pla...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode we've been playing a surprising amount of games! First up, having now reached the game's credits Kyran and Joel sit down to talk about Hades for possibly the last time outside of inevitable Game of the Year discussions (SPOILERS start at 8m15s and run to roughly 13m45s) as well as touch on their time with the recently released demo for Hyrule...

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode of the show, this week we've got a relatively slim Quest Log after how stacked last week's was. We briefly touch on how we are still incredibly hooked on Supergiant's Hades, then Kyran talks about his time with the demo for the newest Kingdom Hearts game, Melody of Memory, and how he's been finding Minecraft's Steve now tha...

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode of the Dialogue Options Podcast and this time we've got a jam packed Quest Log episode! We sat down last week to record but realised not only had there not been a great deal of news we could cover on top of us not really having had the chance to play a great deal so we decided to take the week to just play some games. The move paid off a...

Greetings listeners! This week's episode was delayed by a week after our previous recording suffered from some classic Audacity meddling and our desire to try and avoid that weird feeling of déjà vu that comes from discussing the same topics again. In our Quest Log we talk heavily about the full 1.0 release of Supergiant's Hades coming to Switch and PC as Joel welcomes Kyran into the rogue...

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode, featuring our thoughts on Obsidian's latest early access game, Grounded, which is currently available on Xbox Game Pass for Xbox One and PC (plus available for purchase on Steam). We talk about how we feel after a few hours of running around a huge backyard and just how awful spiders can truly be. Meanwhile, in the Bonus Round we do a rou...

Greetings listeners! We're back with a new episode of the show, in our Quest Log Joel talks about his fond trip down memory lane shredding it up at the skate park with the Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 + 2 remasters, Kyran has dabbled with a neat little SNES throw back JRPG called Chained Echoes, and the boy talk about their very early impressions of the release version of Marvel's Avengers and t...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode of the show Joel has been working up a sweat with Beat Saber and beating up people in River City Girls, whereas Kyran has been grappling with the concept of what is a floor and what is a ceiling in the visually distinct puzzle game Manifold Garden. In Dope or Nope we may have reached the conclusion of the Summer Game Fest (Maybe? Who actually knows a...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode of the show we've got a healthy dose of Quest Log, Joel offers up his early impressions on Thunder Lotus' Spiritfarer and how he's finding it, Kyran talks about how they're feeling about the new Battletoads whilst also offering his thoughts on how the game fares a bit further in, and the boys talk about how they found teaming up in th...

Greetings listeners! We are back with another episode of the podcast and this time around we've got more of a tradtional episode for you! Starting if off with a packed Quest Log featuring our brief spoiler free thoughts about Ghost of Tsushima, revelling in the chaos of Fall Guys and individually Joel has conquered Carrion and Kyran has been cruising though a Freaker-filled world in Days Gone....

Greetings listeners! We're back with another episode (delayed for a day so Kyran's internet could be fixed) where we'll be covering more of Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest.   Up first we have Nintendo's first Partner Showcase, a new initiative going forward where they'll show off select games from their development partners in smaller videos presumably for quicker turnaro...

Greetings listeners! On this week's episode we take a look at some more Summer Game Fest presentations, notably we look at the Devolver Digital and Ubisoft Forward that took place over the weekend. Devolver continue committing to their ridiculous lore and come up with a show that we found pretty entertaining, which helped to alleviate the fact that it was rather light on the game announcements...

Greetings listeners! Welcome to a brand new episode of the show where we attempt to pick through the MANY streams from the last week and a bit in order to highlight some of the games that called out to us. There were so many games announced and shown across the Guerilla Collective, PC Gamer Show, Future Games Show, EA Play Digital, Day of the Devs, and New Game+ presentations that it would be near...

Greetings listeners, It's been a weird couple of weeks and suffice to say it was nice to have video game news to be excited for when Sony announced that they'd rescheduled their highly anticipated reveal for the PlayStation 5. Join us as we break down the games they showed, talk a little about each of them, discuss the console design and finish up by talking about the presentation as a who...

Greetings listeners, This week is finally the week that we're dropping our Final Fantasy VII Remake spoiler-filled special, featuring three hours of discussion across a bunch of different facets of the game (and definitely not all of them, so expect more if Kyran has his way). So, it should go without saying that if you haven't played Final Fantasy VII Remake you should probably steer clea...

Greetings listeners! On this week's show we skip the Quest Log and dive immediately into the Bonus Round to talk about a few of this week's video game announcements. Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest is still kicking along and saw the unveiling of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2 (a remastered release for the two classic games) and Epic's first footage of Unreal Engine 5 running on a PlayS...

Greetings listeners! On this week's show Joel and Kyran having spent some time punching people in Streets of Rage 4, Joel has been spending some time running along walls in Ghostrunner, and Kyran has taken a trip back to Sotenbori with Yakuza Kiwami 2. Joel has also successfully reached the credits on Final Fantasy VII Remake as we move one step closer to blowing that bad boy wide open, and ha...
