A chunky episode featuring plenty of games: Halo Infinite is quite good, Metroid is a timeless series, Forgotten City is a great loop game while 12 minutes is not, Demons Souls is hard, Hot Wheels Unleashed tickles the inner child, Forza Horizon may have grown stale, and a lot more.

Nick is joined by the classic 2v1 trio of Josh and Alex to talk about Metroid Dread. Spoilers from 32:30-45:40. And the absurdity of Resident Evil 6.

Surprise! Axiom Verge 2 has released. Back 4 Blood is whelming, Evo happened, Halo Reach holds up. Mario Golf is just golf and Magic Arena is worth your time.

Playstation 5 is still hard to get but a lot of them are in the wild and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is a reason to seek one out. Mario Golf shoots a bogey on content. There's a new Nintendo Switch that isn't new. Risk of Rain 2 leaps into 3D and Guilty Gear Strive is G O O D.

Whiff Punish provides the comparison between Hideo Kojima and Suda 51 you didn't know you wanted.

Backlogs abound as the year starts slow with new releases. Hitman 3 is Great but is a candidate for the continuing issue of Service Games. Are dialogue choices in games a good thing?

There's a lot to discuss this episode (again). The world braces for Cyberpunk 2077's release (someday), new consoles are upon us, maybe more games should use Early Access models & game peripherals are challenging. On top of all of that, games! Gears 5, more Hades, Spiritfarer, Gris, Star Wars Squadrons, Star Renegades, Dragon Quest 11, Astrobot Rescue Mission, Deliver Us the Moon, & Mudrunner Swag!

Mounds of flesh coalesce, developing thoughts of murder and dreaming of escape while tricking others into thinking it's just like Them. Amidst the terror, violence and confusion, the only evidence of the creature's path? Bleeding buttholes in the walls. Among Us works, Gears Tactics kind of works, Xbox dumps a ton of money into Bethesda's lap, Carrion is disgusting but cool, Post Void is fast, Monster's Expedition is chill, Steamworld Heist is smart, Wonderful 101 is thrilling, & more.
