  • Ep.22 – Splinter Cell: Blacklist & Intravenous 2: Stealth Games Double Feature
    2024/11/08

    Much like making a podcast without being listened to, there's something innately satisfying about creeping through the shadows without being seen. The Last of Us Part 2 kicked us back into a stealth mode and reminded us of the simpler pleasures in life like going prone in tall grass and occasionally making people stop moving. Stealth games, it turns out, are pretty dope, but there actually just aren't that many of them these days. We talk about why we think that is, what happened to the genre, what makes for a good stealth system, whether or not we're on the cusp of a utopian sneaky-mans-eliminating genre revival, and a couple games we've been digging lately - Splinter Cell: Blacklist, and Intravenous 2 (a killer indie spiritual successor). Thanks for listening!

  • Ep.21 – Metaphor: ReFantazio, Silent Hill 2, Disco Elysium Followups and More!
    2024/10/30

    So we uhh punted on Resident Evil 6 - we'll come back to it, I promise! - but we did hop on a couple huge, critically-acclaimed and fairly awesome big recent releases that we had to talk about. Josh has been diving into Metaphor: Refantazio, the new sprawling JRPG epic from the Persona devs, while Drew has been creeping ever-so-slowly through the thick fog and thicker dread of the Silent Hill 2 remake.

    We also do a quick check-in on some of the big recent news stories, including the Disco Elysium fracture studios, the Halo Studios rebranding & engine switch, and the sad downfall of plucky, down-on-their-luck indie developer Ubisoft.

    Thanks for listening!

  • Ep.20 – Resident Evil 5 (is good, actually?)
    2024/10/23

    Spooky season continues with one of the least-beloved entries in one of the most-beloved survival horror series. Despite still being the best-selling game with the words "Resident" and "Evil" in the title, RE5 has a reputation as being not necessarily the nadir of the series, but the moment it began shamelessly trend-chasing and plummeting toward irrelevance. Despite the gleeful dive into full-on action schlock and the story's descent into dumb-even-by-Resident-Evil territory, we both found a lot to like about Resident Evil 5!
