This week, we’re gonna get a little casual and throw on our Hawaiian shirts with Kiryu in Yakuza 3. This is also the first one of the series that Jared has not experienced its entirety. We chat about the changes to the remastered version, the story, and the mighty power of the Dad Squat.

This week, we’re getting a little bizarre again. We’re back in the JoJo universe with the live action adaptation of Thus Spoke Rohan Kishibe. We chat about all three episodes, how they make this feel unique from other adaptations of this material and JJBA Part 4 generally, and ultimately what we think about the mini series.

This week, Jared and I chat about the PlayStation Vita, an amazing system despite Sony’s complete and utter lack of support. We chat about the history of it, why it died, what we liked, how some games got a second life on the Vita, and which games were our favorites.

Jared and I are solving mysteries this week! First, we chat about Sony shutting down the PS3, PSP, and Vita digital store servers later this year and what that means for game preservation. After that, we talk about Root Film, the fun story, our theories when we were playing, and how we think it is compared to the spiritual predecessor Root Letter.

This week, Jared and I played a home version of an arcade version of a rhythm game with a hell of a title, as well as a cooperative game where our characters are getting a divorce. The Love Live! games leaves a lot to be desired despite some neat features, and we chat about what the problems with it are. Finally, we played It Takes Two, which has some fantastic moments and gameplay, but the story of it leaves a lot to be desired. I did get to fight a squirrel who tried to Hadouken me though.

This week, Jared and I get to jump back into the world of Yakuza! But first, we chat about Sony’s State of Play. After that, we get to talk about my experience with Yakuza Kiwami 2, including how it connects to Yakuza 0, how it made me sad, catch up with Kiryu & the Tojo Clan, and some absolutely bananas story beats.

This week, we’ve got three very different things to talk about. First, Nintendo had their first Direct since 2019, and we discuss the announcements, what we’re excited about, and what we disagree on. After that, we counter a video released this week that ranked the Love Live! girls with our own completely accurate and objective ranking. Finally, we continue the AL Experiences Yakuza series as we talk about Yakuza Kiwami, the remake of the first Yakuza game. We chat about why the game hits harder after playing Yakuza 0, how to quit your job in under a couple of hours, and how inferiority complexes can get a lot of people killed.

This week, we start down the path of playing through all of the Yakuza games! This is the first part of me experiencing the Yakuza games as Jared plays through them. We decided to start with Yakuza 0, and we discuss some of the goofy side events, the story itself, how tragic it is that Majima cut his hair, and how we went on a major quest to find all the sexy videos.
