This week’s episode looks at the progenitor of all walking simulator games, Dear Esther, in this week’s Gaming Flashback. They also discuss the upcoming Game Pass games for May as well as voice masking on the Playstation 3 and Xbox. In addition, Scott discusses Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising, the spinoff of Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes that was crowdfunded on Kickstarter.
The news includes:

- Sony reportedly “will not approve any statements” from PlayStation studios on reproductive rights

Let us know what you think.
This year Microsoft believes they’ve got a heavy hitter lineup of titles starting around now until the end of the year including: Gears of War 2, Fable 2, Guitar Hero: World Tour, Rock Band 2 and Fallout 3. They’re also looking at Lips, their karaoke title with a casual appeal to bring on the sales figures this season.
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.
Hi guys.
As always: thank you very much for the episode 🙂
I am playing not that much at the moment, but some rounds of Magic the Gathering Arena and some rounds of WoW are always there 🙂 I also started playing Itorah, which is a very nice Metroidvania game.
Regarding your topics:
Walking Simulators: I really like those games. For me games like “Life is strange” , “Journey”, “Heavy Rain” or “Detroid become human” were awesome and i played all of them. Most of them have a fantastic atmosphere, good story, awesome music and i did not get bored or it feels repetitive.
Fifa:
I cant describe how less i care about that 😀
I never played any Fifa since i had one about 20 years ago for the PS1. The best soccer game of all time still is “World Cup” for NES oder GameBoy 🙂
Starfield:
It seems that i am the only person who is not hyped for that game … nearly all my friends are waiting for it since it was announced.
All the other topics:
Cant say anything useful or interesting about them… sorry 🙂
Keep healthy and keep on with the good work guys.
Greetings from germany,

I’m hoping to see Starfield footage at the Microsoft/Bethesda show in June, even if the game is delayed.
