So Final Fantasy XVI happened, and the fellas are mighty impressed. To quote one podcaster, "Game of the last few years". And he might be right, we spend this entire podcast discussing how and why FF XVI works, and inevitably plan for a spoilercast in the future.
Now it's Xbox's turn to show off cool stuff like Fable, Forza, and a bunch of videos that might eventually turn into games like Bioclockwork.
We discuss all the cool and uncool things about the PlayStation Showcase 2023. Spider-Man 2? Great! Phantom Blade Zero? A nice surprise! PSVR 2? Sad trombone. Join Paul and James for all their well formed opinions.
Unfortunately, Redfall also happened. It's the good and the bad, and the bad is also the ugly, but the good is PROBS game of the year? Maybe.
Can Xbox get a solid W someday? For gaming's sake, please use that infinite cashflow to NOT F it up for once.
It's videogames and stuff, what more are you looking for?
Destiny 2 Lightfall, PSVR2, and more Octopath Traveler 2 are rocking - or something - our worlds. Also, we're calling it - Starfield and SpiderMan 2 will go head to head this fall.
Octopath Traveler 2 and some video game stuff, but more importantly we were doin' it live.
The Nintendo Direct consumes our discussion because heck, there was just so much good stuff! Elsewhere, James talks about Octopath Traveler 2, and Paul think Kirby's Return to Dreamland could be a sleeper hit. But will the Switch GBA project finally give us an English Mother 3 release? Nope. Not if Reggie has anything to say about it.
We're just fools living in a post PT era where scary stuff is more boring than scary. But HiFi Rush is surprisingly delightful.
We're back for another year of casting our opinions out into the ether, in pod form. Paul, Rhett, and James talk about Elden Ring, Fire Emblem Engage, and preview the year in gaming. Spoiler: it might be a gooooood one.
We decide on a top ten, and we promise, it doesn't go as you're expecting. We get weird up in here. Opinions are created, changed, destroyed, and rebuilt repeatedly in the space of seconds.
It's exactly what the title says. Game of the year? Forget it. At least until next time ;)
We played God of War Ragnarok, Pokemon, and more, and were shocked how clunky a game from a bazillion dollar franchise can be. The game is rad as hell though.
Hey what can we say. This is an excellent, insightful, and mostly also excellent podcast from the day before Dad of Boy 2 came out. We just... didn't publish it. It's great though. You should listen to it repeatedly.
HEY WE WERE LIVE AND TALKING ABOUT THE VIDEO GAMES. Bayonetta 3, NHL 23, Splatoon 3, AC Valhalla, AND MORE.
What? No, no, you're mistaken, we didn't go on a massive hiatus because the job market was in turmoil. Oh, we did? Yeah you're right. Anyway, we still play HOT new games like Middle Earth: Shadow of War and Session: Skate Sim. Meanwhile, Rhett got a party light and modded The Witcher 3 until it was held together by a single Dandelion song and the hopes of the Skelligan people.
Slap on your virtual mustaches for heavy discussion of Top Gun Maverick, but also video games like Live A Live, Shredder's Revenge, Gran Turismo 7 (which is better now), and much much more!
Diablo Immortal is exactly as slimy as you feared, and then some more just to be sure. Elsewhere we discuss State of Play, the upcoming not-E3, and games like Mario Strikers Battle League.
Everything's good this time with Trek to Yomi, Shredder's Revenge, and of course Sniper Elite 5. We also hear Rhett's pipes. Subscribe on Apple: https://ift.tt/omQW2wZ or Google: https://ift.tt/l7KYVfA Watch on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/pressxtopodcast Intro music from streambeats.com
Let the salt flow free as the hottest takes on earth land directly in your ear holes. Lego Star Wars is the bomb, Elden Ring seems to have no end, and the game pass has games, be they good or not.
Games and what not as Paul finally plays Elden Ring, James wears a Tunic, and Rhett's getting ULTRA wide! And a new business opportunity? Subscribe on Apple: https://ift.tt/omQW2wZ Google: https://ift.tt/l7KYVfA Intro music from streambeats.com
This episode feels good in the mouth and also on the ears with Forza Horizon 5 as played by a racing noob, GT7, Destiny 2, Tiny Tina, and More! Subscribe on Apple: https://ift.tt/omQW2wZ Google: https://ift.tt/l7KYVfA
Some crazy marketing intern decided furry controllers are a good idea, and we're here to discuss the merits of that. Also, Elden Ring has taken over, Kirby and the Forgotten Land is delightful, and WWE 2k22 doesn't totally suck!
Gran Turismo 7 is a fantastic racing game, but it also treats you like you couldn't possibly know what a car is. Elsewhere, the fellas attempt to resist the pull of Elden Ring, and there's no better time to get back into Destiny 2 with The Witch Queen.
Listen to the end if you wanna know why this is called Red. Hint: OH YEAH! Also, Horizon Forbidden West rules, Cyberpunk 2077 kinda doesn't suck now, and your nostalgia will need ALL the pixels in FF6 Pixel Remaster. Also also I straight up forgot to publish this a couple weeks ago. Oops.
This episode isn't actually about soap, it's about Rhett's solution to every problem in Dying Light 2. We also talk about Grid Legends and Pokemon while not talking about Horizon Forbidden West yet. Meanwhile, we ponder the difference between Sonic and Richard Nixon.
Game Freak is changing the rules of engagement for Pokemon games, and we talk about why Pokemon Legends Arceus is the update the series desperately needed. Meanwhile, Rhett keeps up the yearly tradition of playing important games a month too late by playing Inscryption, and Paul goes back in time a few years to revisit Horizon Zero Dawn. Oh, and the Microsoft money dumptruck fleet backed up to Activision HQ, and you know we've got thoughts about that.
We're mixing up a big 'ol batch of Ubisoft Gumbo, where games like Far Creed 6: Assassin's Cry are a thing. There are real games too, though, with Halo Infinite, Windjammers 2, and Solar Ash on the docket alongside a barrel full of news! Join us for a rip roarin' good time as we begin season 5 of Press X To Podcast: Face 2.0.
