Episode 238 - Is Starfield's Delay A Sign About Xbox? 0
Mar 20, 2023

Xbox announced a date for both a Starfield Direct and a release date for the game. But people online are saying Starfield got delayed. We disagree. We also get into PSVR 2 impressions, Resident Evil 4 Chainsaw Demo, dream video game music projects, and remember just how solid the band Creed was (even if the lead singer went a little crazy).

Episode 237 - Does Playstation NEED Call of Duty? 0
Mar 6, 2023

Playstation and Xbox both have said some weird things during the situation with the Activision/Blizzard acquisition, most recently Playstation has made the claim they need Call of Duty to fund their games. Is this true? We also dig into the Final Fantasy XVI preview footage, gush over Hogwarts Legacy, and painfully remember Tidus' laugh from Final Fantasy X.

Episode 235 - Xbox Has Changed Things 0
Feb 6, 2023
This episode marks a new path forward for TRG with a change to the format. From now on, TRG will recap major gaming news, offer our thoughts, and bring our Deer Patrons into the discussion. This episode, we kick things off by looking at how Xbox is changing things up with a more structured format of a Direct and some big layoffs that have us wondering: is it time to put Halo on ice? We also get in to our Patron write ins to give reco's of Wii U eshop games to snag before the store goes offline and why the future of gaming is primed for a return of Smell-o-vision.
 
Oh, and we are starting a Marvel Snap podcast that launches next week.

Jan 23, 2023

God of War Ragnarok is a meaty game. To help us discuss the themes, we brought on friend and Patron of the show: Nate McKeever (Backlog Breakdown). Before we get into the show, the preshow sees us discussing the recent news surrounding Xbox's layoffs and wondering just what is going on over there. The show proper sees us hinting at future content (including a new podcast) along with discussing the theme of obsession and parenthood as it relates to the characters in God of War Ragnarok. Buckle up. This is a long but rock solid episode.
