Episode description

Similar to movies, Video Games often get blasted into the mainstream and achieve massive success. Other times they enter with a whimper and die out before anyone has had a chance to know what they're about. There is, however, a third, and often compelling, option. Some games come out with little fan fare and eventually grow a following. This can be seen in the Dark Souls series,  many of the Suda51 creations, and Rockstar's Table Tennis. So what makes these games so beloved by those that play them and why did they never achieve the mainstream success that some believe they deserved?

Media Discussed:

  • Evil Dead Rise
  • Super Mario Bros Movie

Video Games Discussed:

  • Final Fantasy Pixel Remastered Collection
  • Resident Evil 4
  • Destiny 2 Lightfall
