Ep 497 - Double Fine's Keeper wows us with the adventures of a walking lighthouse. Huber and Gabby report back after more substantial time with Battlefield 6. We explore the depth (perception) of Little Nightmares 3, and preserving classic Resident Evil wasn't a sure thing.

This week I'll be talking about Double Fine's Keeper. Huber and Gabby will have some more thoughts on Battlefield 6 now that public servers are live. I'm hoping to get some time into Little Nightmares 3 with Huber. And there are a few more th...

2025-10-09 00:53:32 +0000 UTC View PostI still have a lot of catch up to do on games, but otherwise I think I'm getting back to normal after the last few months of travel. This week I'm looking to chat about Carimara, Isla has a preview for the new Heroes of Might and Magic, and Huber's been poking at a few things, including Battlefield and Dying Light. So, we'll see what he's ready to chat about as we get closer to show.

Bloodworth's last stop at TGS was for the all-new Let it Die, and he walked away a believer after getting a couple runs with the wacky weapons and enemies of this descent into hell.

At this year's Tokyo Game Show, Critical Reflex set up a version of No, I'm Not a Human with a physical door to let in humans or blast visitors, and Bloodworth had to give it a try.

Isla has finished the new Silent Hill three times, and while it feels like a true successor to the series legacy, the rich story is hindered by potentially tedious structure and combat.

This week I am going to try to put some time into Borderlands 4. I've also got No, I'm Not a Human staring me down, as well as a few other things I can't mention just yet. Not sure how much of the Nintendo Direct we'll get into since it happened on a Friday, but if you have any related questions, fire away!

Ep 492 - Nintendo has somehow been awarded patents for some laughably common ideas. Meanwhile, we check out the time-bending horror of Cronos, the new Kirby upgrade, and Adventure of Samsara. And of course, we dig deeper into Silksong now that we've had more time to play.

2025-09-09 14:12:35 +0000 UTC View PostThis week is probably going to be a little wild after Easy Chillin'. I'm still trying to finish up Cronos, but I feel pretty good about it so far. We'll probably get a little deeper into Silksong. I know Don has put some time into the Kirby expansion, and there are a couple other things that we might try to hit.
