This week’s episode has minor audio issues, but otherwise is okay. Most of the talk is about the Resident Evil 2 remake, and how it’s taken over the world. The crew also discuss the latest Gathering Storm civ, Phoenicia.

The news of the week includes:

  • Capcom shipped 3 million units of Resident Evil 2
  • Valve calls exclusive Metro Exodus deal with Epic “unfair” to Steam customers
  • American McGee confirmed to be working on Alice 3 story, art and design
  • Fallout 76 Survival Mode – PVP Beta starting in March

Let us know what kind of game you want to see remade.

  1. Hi Guys.
    Thanks for this episode, even if i am not so much into Resident Evil, it was interesting to listen to your thoughts about it 🙂
    I played the last RE on PS4 … it was 7? Dont know exactly 🙂
    I finished Hollow Knight, Detroit Become Human and Monsterboy and the cursed Kingdom … made it to 97% without any walkthroughs 🙂 Yesterday i started with Kingdom Hearts 2.5 because i want to play through this until i start KH 3. And of Course: a lot of Magic The Gathering Arena!
    What do you guys think about all these new-old games coming out besides RE? Like Monsterboy or all these HD Remakes of this and that? Do you like it or do you like the original feeling of the old games and do you want to play only graphical blasts in 2019 (like Last Of Us 2, Anthem and such Triple A titles)?
    For your question of the week: i want a remake of Metroid (the original one on NES and Super Metroid for SNES) as well or some GameBoy Games like Gargoyles Quest or Simons Quest 🙂
    There are some Non-Video Games from my childhood (C64 and Amiga) i would love to see as a remake: Apydia, Turrican, Moonstone, New Zealand Story or Baldurs Gate. On the other side maybe these games were good back in the days but would not be good anymore today even with better graphics? 🙂
    Please stay as you are and keep going with the good work.
    Greetings from germany,
    Ralf

Episode 404: Rebel ScumEpisode 404: Rebel Scum

This week’s episode is a little late thanks to unforeseen circumstances, but nothing will stop us from posting new episodes. It’s actually one day late, since last week was a week off, thanks to Podbean limits and Halloween. On that note, this week, Jonah had to erase a spoiler segment about The Force Awakens, but enough remains of the convo discussing other parts of the upcoming movie.

This week’s news:

  • Sony not to offer backwards compatibility
  • Advertising Standards Authority rules Valve misled customers with Grand Theft Auto V Steam Sale
  • The Witcher movie slated for 2017
  • Ubisoft admits poor Syndicate sales are due to franchise fatigue caused by Unity
  • World of Warcraft paid subscribers at a nine year low at 5.5M

The Question of the Week is what we usually ask ourselves, but with all the new games coming out, “What have you been playing this week?”

Yet Another PSP Re-Design?Yet Another PSP Re-Design?

It seems as if this is the third time, but SCEE has announced a new PSP design with eight different bundles being offered. This fall we should see the PSP-3000, which sounds much like a fake Acme cartoon toy, but it’s for reals.

This version will have a built-in microphone, a redesigned (brighter) LCD screen with out-of-the-box Skype abilities. The Swiss Army knife of hand-helds will keep the current outward design with inner tweaks and each bundle will cause 199 Euro.

Is the market really looking for a re-design with these features or is this Sony’s way of competing with “color DS lite” designs. Nintendo re-releases the same product with brighter colors a few years after its release while Sony seems to push a few new hardware features or enhancements.

The end result, DS still beats all expectations in unit sales month after month.

(Thanks, Kotaku)
