Send us Fan Mail While he didn't spend this week relaxing in an open world game, David Radd did play more of the extensive content of Injustice: Gods Among Us and wondered why enemies had so much health in The Adventures of Batman and Robin for the Genesis.  Tuesday tried desperately to get their Rogue-lite fix in Conan Chop Chop and continued venturing into a demon infested Tokyo in Shin Meg...

Send us Fan Mail After saying goodbye to his PS4, David Radd played the (extremely short) origins for Cyberpunk 2077 on his PS5 and played the excellent story mode in Injustice: Gods Among Us.  Meanwhile, Tuesday finally picked up Shin Megami Tensei V and counted the Castlevania references in Vampire Survivors.  In news, the government probe into Activision Blizzard expands, Bobby Kotick set up se...

Send us Fan Mail While not watching the controversy-riddled Winter Olympics, David Radd was playing the perfectly adequate pathfinding game (which is not a Souls-like) Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight and noting that Lana Wachowski is talking directly to the audience in the technically impressive The Matrix Awakens: An Unreal 5 Experience.  Meanwhile, Tuesday likes the gameplay in the Triangl...

Send us Fan Mail The threat of more acquisitions looms large, but in the meantime David Radd and Tuesday play two disappointing "run-it-back" sequels by Inti Creates in Mega Man 10  and Luminous Avenger iX 2, while Tuesday illuminates in excruciating detail the problems with the different characters in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.  In news, Nintendo reports on its successful quarter...

Send us Fan Mail Hyper Scape might be shutting down, presaging the potential of other future Ubisoft service games, but David Radd is protecting NPCs which he can't control in Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn and finished up the surprisingly long Guardians of the Galaxy.  Meanwhile, Tuesday must truly be desperate to come to Enter the Gungeon for fun and plays another Inti-Creates game in Master Blas...

Send us Fan Mail He's still wringing his hands over Bobby Kotick leaving Activision Blizzard on his terms, but he also took out time to read the word "suzerain" over and over again in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn and continues to enjoy the banter between Drax and Gamora in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy while Tuesday is playing some Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 and reflecting on a world...

Send us Fan Mail David Radd might not be buying anything from EA, but he is finally returning to Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn to confirm that the Greil Mercenaries are better than the Dawn Brigade, enjoys the banter between Drax and Gamora in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy and tries to get all the references in Astro's Playroom.  Tuesday meanwhile doesn't like Eren in Attack on Titan...

Send us Fan Mail Tuesday retroactively adds Doki Doki Literature Club Plus! to their top 5 games of 2021, but David Radd didn't forget any of his top games from last year, instead turning over The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds where he purchased all the tools he could as soon as he could, is awestruck by the power of Rick, Kine and Coo in Kirby Star Allies, remembers when Valve relea...

Send us Fan Mail Umbrella Corps doesn't seem like a game for anyone, not even Resident Evil fans, but David Radd ditched that game to play the pixel-art pathfinding game Dandara: Trials of Fear Edition which really wears its influences on its sleeves to the fairy tale-like World War I story 11-11: Memories Retold.  Meanwhile, Tuesday torches all enemies as the black mage in Chocobo's Mys...

Send us Fan Mail When not in a GameStop getting frustrated by the selection, David Radd is taking a few tentative steps in NiGHTS Into Dreams... while completing Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty, and is thoroughly disappointed by Tearaway Unfolded's third act.  Meanwhile, Tuesday's ventures in Yu-Gi-Oh! games naturally leads to Shadowverse: Champions Battle, a fascinating if g...

Send us Fan Mail While gritting his teeth through the hosts of Nintendo's Indie World, David Radd finishes up on Mafia: Definitive Edition and finally finds some good cars while encountering two false endings in Tearaway Unfolded.  Meanwhile, Tuesday played some Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel: Dawn of the Battle Royale!! which oddly does not have a battle royal mode and somehow only achieves success wit...

Send us Fan Mail While hoping that Skeleton Man is listening to the podcast, David Radd plays the game starring  Skeleton Man (named Sir Dan) in MediEvil for PS4 and remarks at how bad cars controlled in the 1930s in Mafia Definitive Edition.  Meanwhile, Tuesday can't help but explore side-quests and get into trouble in World of Horror while trying to make a deck out of cast-off cards in Yu-G...

Send us Fan Mail While wondering why Untitled Goose Game was a suggested holiday gift for "gamers" in 2021, David Radd experienced all the set up and almost no pay-off for Gravity Rush Remastered's story, played the greatest take on Defender of all time in Resogun and manages to Slay the Spire in one attempt.  Tuesday, meanwhile, is pushing the activate button along every wall to tr...

Send us Fan Mail While wondering about the veracity of many modern "gameplay" trailers, David Radd has been summoning dragons (yes really) in Dead Island: Retro Rampage while being thankful for the slower game mode in Ghostrunner,  Tuesday, meanwhile is dealing with friendly fire in Helldivers and wonders if they're actually playing Resident Evil 6 in Resident Evil: Revelations 2&ap...

Send us Fan Mail While wishing and waiting for a future of embracing hybrid game conferences, David Radd played a truckload of games on Game Pass, including 12 Minutes and its bizzare final-act twist, River City Girls and its terrible dialog, It Takes Two and its gameplay variety, Ori and the Unearned Emotional Moments,  and Mighty Goose with his pig companion: Commander Vark.  Tuesday, meanwhile,...

Send us Fan Mail Insomniac's Wolverine game is getting the writer from Spec Ops: The Line, but that game is still years away.  In the meantime, SNGP host David Radd has been enjoying breaking rocks in Super Stardust Ultra and is baffled by the low-res graphics and imprecise gameplay of A Boy and His Blob.  Tuesday spent some time with David getting in some First Class Trouble, though lets be...

Send us Fan Mail As much fun as the online Squid Game of trying to snag a PS5 is, David Radd has also been getting some co-op ninja action in with Shadow of the Ninja, plays a round of Mario Golf: Super Rush, and feels a bit let down by The Walking Dead: A New Frontier.  Meanwhile, Tuesday takes out hordes of Ridden (don't call them zombies) in Back 4 Blood and also tries out some Children of...

Send us Fan Mail The Switch Online + Expansion Pack launch is a bit of a disappointment, but we have other games to play here at SNGP!  David Radd played some Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn but spends more time complaining about the YOU and ME and HER: A Love Story VN he was watching simultaneously and enjoys taking pictures of ghosts but doesn't like trotting back and forth across a dilapidated J...

Send us Fan Mail Everything's gone pear-shaped, but fortunately we like fruit at SNGP.  David Radd is redoing whole turns in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, is done with Alien: Isolation long before the credits roll and wonders why all these Japanese villagers are delivering lines in poorly-acted English in Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly.  Meanwhile, Tuesday learns about time-zones in White Day...

Send us Fan Mail Crafting elements do not a crafting game make, but David Radd isn't worrying about that too much while playing Alien: Isolation - Prepare to Hide Edition while he fusses over the Greil Mercenaries equipment in Fire  Emblem: Radiant Dawn.  Meanwhile, Tuesday travels deeper into horror in White Day: A Labyrinth Named School and Siren while realizing that Guilty Gear Accent Core...

Send us Fan Mail Another week, another Ubisoft live-service game was announced in Ghost Recon Frontline, but David Radd isn't worrying about that since he's talking about how Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn's story needs the context of Path of Radiance and experiences a game without any context in the horror Looney Tunes title that is The Evil Within.  Meanwhile, Tuesday enjoys Super Monk...

Send us Fan Mail The Bayonettacast never ends here on SNGP but David Radd's time with Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice does, and he ponders if The Evil Within is a comedy and specifies his take on a (theoretical) Fire Emblem: Radiant Duology remake, while Tuesday dives into the demo of Yoko Taro's latest game Voice of Cards and tries to tolerate a Soulslike in Darksiders III.   In news, Activis...

Send us Fan Mail In this week's SNGP, David Radd has plenty of follow-up thoughts on Metroid: Samus Returns before talking about the amazing lead up to Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice's final act, confirms that Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn has too many units, and runs into Trine 3's abrupt ending while Tuesday probed some earthlings in Destroy All Humans! and likes the environmental design i...

Send us Fan Mail In this SNGP, David Radd returns to Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and is reminded of how great it is and continues to not use Meg in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, while Tuesday has mixed feelings on the single-player content in WarioWare: Get it Together.  In news, a lot came out in a recent Platinum interview, including about Bayonetta 3, Star Fox Zero for Switch and that the Astral Cha...

Send us Fan Mail In SNGP 12, what's lighting up our system comes at the start when it should; David Radd gives an update on Metroid: Samus Returns and pokes at Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, while Tuesday finishes Boyfriend Dungeon and has mixed feelings on Dead Cells.  In news, Toshiba confirms that chips will be in short supply which means scarcer consoles, the Tripwire president trips over his...
