It's time to return to the phones! Well, Discord! As I did back in early June, I (Colin) sat down in front of the mic to take your questions, comments, concerns, thoughts, and ideas, live on the air with no notes and no preparation. Not surprisingly, the conversations are wide-ranging. What do I think of the debate around 'ga...

Fresh off the further reveal of the slick-looking timed-PS5 exclusive Deathloop comes word of another Bethesda-published timed exclusive that's being pushed further into the horizon. Tango Gamework's PlayStation 5 horror project Ghostwire: Tokyo has been delayed into 2022, perhaps not a huge surprise, but one worth ...

The Xbox team made the press rounds this week and dove into the likes of controller changes, VR/AR, early access, but most importantly to everyone (and especially Cog!) is that #JustONE! Fans have wanted Xbox to go all out with their single player narrative games and Phil Spencer has just claimed they have more in development...

Through Smart Delivery, a once scoffed at service, Xbox has managed to make the implementation of next-gen updates to current games easier for the consumer. With it being as simple as sliding in your disc, the newest series of consoles now plays the best version of the game automatically. PlayStation enables this as well, but...

There was a time when Ratchet & Clank was one of the mightiest IP Sony owned. But even in its more lax contemporary state, Ratchet has been a consistent, high-quality series from Insomniac for nearly two decades, now. These days, the likes of Ratchet isn't what drives PlayStation -- we need to look at the likes of Horizon...

Memories are structured. There's a place, an event, and perhaps even other people. And then there's the true setting: The year, the era, the month, or indeed the season itself. It's that latter notion that we want to explore in this episode of KnockBack, because the four seasons themselves -- Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter ...

It's back, but with a new twist! Chris may be some kind of wizard when it comes to willing games into existence, but surely he's not right about everything. On this episode of Sacred Symbols+, listeners of the show challenge Chris on numerous topics: His distaste for Kingdom Hearts, the relevancy of his beloved Destiny 2, his...

Dustin came to my home in Virginia just a few days ago to rendezvous (no, not like that, you pervert), and during our wide-ranging discussion, we were settling on precisely what we felt we needed to bring Last Stand Media to the next level. Last Stand is bigger than it has ever been, doing more traffic ...

Sony's newest State of Play presentation gave us a glimpse at some third-party games of varying quality, Death Stranding's PS5 port, a sequel to one of PSVR's most notable adventures, and so on. We also got a deep dive into Arkane's upcoming PS5 console-exclusive Deathloop, and it looks amazing. With its Dishon...

Reports, reports, and more reports! That's a TLDR for you. We have reports on the future of Grand Theft Auto's next entry which will feature an "evolving map" best compared to events in Fortnite. Assassin's Creed joins the fray of single player platforms that will be supported for years. In yet another report, it is revealed ...

For the first time, our very own Colin Moriarty joins the show after a loud week from PlayStation. With three studio acquisitions in the last year, they're moving at a pace we haven't seen a sniff of in the last decade. Xbox has formed into a strong competitor through the likes of Xbox Game Pass and streaming options. With Co...

PlayStation 5's most unusual game is also one of its most critically-acclaimed to date. Returnal -- developed by one-time second party (and now fully-owned) developer Housemarque -- is the culmination of 25 years or so of rock-solid arcadey goodness. But the team that revolutionized the twin-stick shooter and modernized ...

Sony has finally announced a couple of first party acquisitions (and preemptively leaked a third), and while one target has been a very long time in coming, the other is out of left field, indicating that PlayStation is thinking more broadly about how, when, and in what fashion it gets its products into the world. Naturally, ...
