Factory Sealed Video Game Podcasts

Factory Sealed’s plot to take over the world is revealed, everyone nerds out over the Final Fantasy 7 Remake trailer, and everyone except Dan decides to preserve their happy childhood memories and stops playing Tomb Raider 2.

Phone sex operator Jess returns, cars are on fire, Super Star Wars is absurdly difficult, and apparently 600 clicks on a screen tell us our top games of all time.

Jess sleeps through the nuclear apocalypse as Eric, Dan and Tom discuss Fallout 4 and accidentally manage to play various versions of Kirby.

Slip into your favorite jammies and snuggle in with Eric and Tom as they whisk you away on magical journey to the whimsical land of PoPoLoCrois.

Chrono Trigger consistently ranks near top in the pantheon of gaming gods, but does it really deserve to be there? We think so.

Silent Hill raises more questions than it actually answers. Questions like “What happened to this town?” and “What’s going on with that radio?” But most importantly, “Have you seen a little girl? Short, black hair? Just turned seven last month?”

Halloween is still a week away, but that doesn’t stop us from talking about loads of cosplay, our favorite memories from working at a game shop, tech decks, and the last half of Psychonauts and how it almost didn’t happen.

Play Battlefront you must – come, make laser noises and learn about the walkey-things. Then lie back, sniff some bacon, and listen as brain experts Eric and Dan delve deep into the mind and talk everything Psychonauts.

With our collective brain power we attempt to answer some of this week’s more pressing questions: What happened to the Tony Hawk Series? Where did Ethan Carter go? And just who is Ronnie Pickering?

The force is not strong with us. We channel our inner pod racer with Star Wars Episode 1: Racer and Jess lights her truck on fire in the process. Eric and Dan finish Metal Gear Solid V and lament over the mixed emotions they are left with.

We get existential with developer Will O’Neill as we wax philosophical about his semi-autobiographical creation Actual Sunlight. We’re are we going? Is this all worth it? Who knows. Just don’t go to the roof.

20 years of PlayStation memories, a few questionable Mario purchases, and two plausibly confirmed myths regarding Mario 3 and the true familial loins from which Bowser Jr. was cast forth. Wot?

Eric and Dan hold the fort as Jess and Tom are possibly currently deceased. Discover whether Crash Bash is a euphemism, how Kiefer Sutherland sucks as Snake, and revel in the debut of the Random Game Generator!

Dan taunts us with his early copy of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain while the rest of us prepare by brushing up on our combat skills with Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions and King of the Monsters.

Often revered as one of the greatest RPGs of its era, The Legend of Dragoon feels more like a summer filled with household chores than a game worthy of such high praise. But does it have enough for us to see it through to the end?

Rocket Knight Adventures sends us wandering down a very dark and twisted path in search of answers to why all the pigs take their clothes off when they die.

We wrap up our thoughts on The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, but not before we dissect the crack-level addictive qualities of Rocket League.

Dan admits he’s wrong for the first time ever as we discuss how despite being the tiniest Zelda game, the Minish Cap may also be one of the best.

We don our running sneakooors and accompany Sonic on his slowest fetch quest yet in Sonic 3D Blast. Unfortunately, we return with only a drunkenly opened suitcase and a single flesh tunnel.

We travel back in time to the land of Turok: Dinosaur Hunter and try to reprogram our brains to comprehend the controls, all while Jess eludes a crazy window stalker.

We’re out to settle the long-standing debate of which kart racer is the best. Mario Kart 64, Diddy Kong Racing, or Crash Team Racing? With a gun to our pouses, we are forced to crown a victor.

Tom regales us with tales of the British government while we pretend to love the entirety of Battletoads, when in fact we only made it as far as we did because we took the time to memorize the first three levels.

It’s actually happening! Our thoughts on the Final Fantasy VII remake, Batman Forever, True Lies, and giant, menacing Haboobs as we welcome Tom to the crew.

8-Bit Baby joins us to discuss lullabies and Mega Man 2 while Dan struggles to figure out why he can’t keep his electricity turned on.

Oliver Aguilar joins us once again in an attempt to explain the plot of Metal Gear Solid to Jess, Eric outlines the particulars of Urban Golf and Potato Baseball, and Dan stuns everyone with just how poorly he pronounces Konami.
