Spooky season has arrived! Before we delve into the absolute chaos of October 2025 in the world of video games, we indulge our desire to talk horror films and getting into the Halloween spirit! After that, Brad dives deep on yet another "definitive" version of his favorite game of all time: Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles. Chris Davis and Nick deliver some early impressions of Ghost of Yotei and discuss how Sucker Punch approached the sequel from a design standpoint. Brad also shines some light on an inspired new indie game, Consume Me, which is already sweeping up awards but...

Chris Davis turned 40 but enough about that... October 2025 is poised to be one of the most beautifully chaotic months of gaming that we've seen in a long time. We recorded late this week but it gave us more time to delve into Silent Hill f, another impressive (original) entry in Silent Hill's ongoing comeback tour. Brad also siezes the opportunity to finally talk about Hades II after patiently waiting for the game to leave early access! Of course, there is more Hollow Knight Silksong to discuss as we each move through this difficult game at varying paces. Impressions - Silent Hill f (9:55)...

We dig deeper into Hollow Knight Silksong this week and take the time to debate some of the nitty-gritty design choices that make the experience divisive but brilliant. Chris Davis delivers some final thoughts on his extended playthroughs of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and we briefly discuss the fun we had together last week streaming Peak! In the news, Kojima Productions hosted their own showcase with a host of announcements including a first look at OD: Knock. We also take a closer look at some surprises that hit this week with games like Silent Hill f and Trails in the Sky 1st...

What is there to say? Hollow Knight Silksong is out and we have played a bunch of it. In fact, the game is so good that it brought Ed out of hiding and onto the podcast for the first time since our 2025 Fantasy Critic Draft! After slobbing all over Silksong, we take some time to recap this week's big Nintendo Direct and the abundance of announcements thaat continue to make 2025 one of the wildest years for gaming ever! Metroid Prime 4 and Hades 2 have new release dates and the next Fire Emblem is lookin hot. Banter - Catching up with Ed (7:20) Impressions - Hollow Knight Silksong...

As the clock ticks down toward the looming release of Hollow Knight Silksong, we say goodbye to a bygone era. Strangely enough, that era ends with us revisiting three established franchises with vastly different approaches to modernization. Nick and Chris Davis talk about the impressive - but slightly unambitious - remake, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater and Brad delves into Shinobi: Art of Vengeance which has reinvented the franchise with a shift of genre and a beautiful new coat of paint. Meanwhile, Krispy declares No Man's Sky: Voyagers to be the ultimate expansion which softens the...

This is not a drill. Hollow Knight Silksong not only has a release date... It's NEXT WEEK! As exciting as that is, we have to deal with the here and now. Brad tries his best to talk about Sword of the Sea without mentioning Journey but fails miserably. Nick delves into Heartworm, a 2025 indie horror game that harkens back to the days of PS1-era survival horror and Chris Davis continues his recent love affair with Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 but focuses on the campaign this week. With a little Lumines Arise (Demo), Death Stranding 2, Donkey Kong Bananza, and some Deadlock Beta impressions...
info_outlineBefore diving into the depths of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, we take a detour to return to Blue Prince now that Nick has given himself to the game. Brad talks about the new Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update and highlights Chronicles of the Wolf; a well made homage to classic Castlevania. Chris Davis surprises the group with a game off his extensive backlog (**It's Okami**) and Krispy hit the road recently so he got to spend some time with Mario Kart World, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and Unicorn Overlord on his Nintendo Switch 2! So many video games, so little time...
