This week, I am confused. First, we talk about the surprise announcement for Love Live! School Idol Festival 2. After that, I talk about my time with Return to Monkey Island, and how maybe the friends we made along the way are the important part of the story. Who knows?

This week is our 300th episode, and so as usual, we decided to do something a little bit different for the milestone. We watched some pro wrestling, Jared got to hear my fantastic wrestling commentary, and I saw some familiar faces from either the Yakuza series or through cultural osmosis beat the crap out of each other.

Leave a CommentThis week, I have emerged from gremlin mode to discuss Xenoblade Chronicles 3. After dropping over nearly 150 hours into the game, I talk with Jared about the story, what mechanics have changed, how it ties into the previous games, and what I think overall compared to the other games.
Leave a CommentThis week, we chat about a spooky (ish) game, Ghostwire: Tokyo. We talk about how they used Japanese ghost stories and urban legends to populate the world, how games are automatically better when you can pet cats and dogs, and what it means to be a “fine” game.

Leave a CommentThis week, Jared and I reflect back on our previous selves and our GOTY lists from previous years. We talk about what’s changed, what could have made our lists if we had played them in those years, and what holds up.
