Factory Sealed Video Game Podcasts

A rare case of "seriousness" overcomes the crew with the Returnal of General Spendington to discuss accessibility in video games, Resident Evil 8, and our favorite tinfoil hat video game urban legends.

We were hoping to find a spaceship at the end of Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader, but all we found was a crappy Buick.

Issac Clarke is just a footlong away from surviving the hideandseeknomorphs, babynomorphs and jumpnomorphs of Dead Space 2; all that he needs to finish them off for good is for Eric to finish watching Wayne's World first.

Even eating the largest wheel of cheese has never left us wanting to fart nearly as bad as playing Oddworld: Soulstorm. But how much does a missing fart really affect the rest of the game? As it turns out... a lot.

Context is everything - particularly when Mike launches a podcast about his dreams (and possibly other parts of his body) while the rest of us play through classic Final Fantasy VII spin-off, Crisis Core. Anyway... here's Wonderwall.

We discuss both the State of Play and the State of Mike's Lawn, as well as update our fantasy league standings

Eric and Zack talk about poor financial decisions and proper friendship etiquette while holding each other's feet to the fire in a forced trudge through Dark Souls 2

It's another special romantic edition of Factory Sealed! Take a seat, relax, and let us bring you your game of the month - Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance. And for afters, we've got a very special box of chocolates for you.

The whole Gamestonks adventure attracts our attention as Eric dabbles in the stock market, and everyone unsuccessfully tries to explain how it works to Dan. Meanwhile, the lads start a new venture, competing against each other in a video game draft league for the next year!

Looking for the ultimate getaway? Join us as we visit Isle Delfino (in Mario Sunshine) where you can bask in the sunshite, butter your feet, and be accused of rampant vandalism.

Time's are a changing! This is just a quick announcement regarding the new show we just launched called Factory Sealed - Sidequests.

It's the very first episode of Sidequests, part of the Factory Sealed Podcast network! Join Eric, Dan, Tom and Mike as they list their top 10 games of 2020, tell you what we're all about, and get started with our exciting new venture!

A mysterious house filled with puzzles, monsters, and a suspicious man in tight denim shorts waiting to put holes in our discs awaits us as we tackle the Gamecube remake of Resident Evil.

Expect much splurging about the PS5 just before Vincenzo Valentine is back from his Italian Escape to battle the forces of Deepground in Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII.

A new generation is upon us, but we're still in a dream as we play stealthy jungle classic Metal Gear Solid 3: Snek Eator, while Eric is forced to stymie his excitement over getting a PS5 a week before everyone else.

Who needs professionals qualified to do their jobs? We can get through Fatal Frame (well, Dan can) armed only with a camera and a giant ladder borrowed from a decorator.

Two become one as Eric and Mike freshen up with a new scent, share some pillow talk about the PS5 and Xbox Series X, and spank some monkeys in Ape Escape.

Back in the day we only had the PS5 to pre-order, filthy cakes to buy, and Nazis to shoot in Return to Castle Wolfenstein...and we were happy. And we were grateful.

We're getting all hot at the thought of playing Parasite Eve, but then our temperatures really start flaring off the scale because of Mike's very interesting shower designs.

We've got a significant hard-on for several games this week, including Mortal Shell, Fall Guys, Salt and Sanctuary, and Microsoft Flight Simulator, but it unfortunately gets downgraded to a semi for the second half of Grandia.

The Summer RPG returns once again as we join Justin and Sue for an adventure through the first half of Grandia! - Also included is an extended discussion on unusual bathroom hygiene/snacks, easy mode t-shirts, and Mike's massive Xbox fanboy.

This show is a triumph and we're making a note here - huge success, as we tackle Valve's puzzling classic Portal.

Samoose is once again loose aboot this hoose as we boot up Metroid Prime, gush over the big PS5 reveal, and give Eric a very special new job in our impromptu band.

Alan's constantly losing his trusty flashlight and fighting against both a nonsensical plot and a Dark Presence as we tackle Remedy's psychological thriller, Alan Wake!

It's finally here! Final Fantasy 7 Remake is out and we've all beaten it! Join us for both a spoiler-free analysis and - if you've finished it - a full spoilery chat too! Hey, at least it isn't Zelda.
