Defining Duke, Episode 127 | That Was INSANE - Our Reaction To Xbox's 2023 Showcase
Xbox needed a good showcase after all of the bad to remind folks why they bought their piece of plastic in the first place. Well, Xbox's 2023 showcase wasn't just good, it was close to perfect. First party arrived in spades with Fable, South Of Midnight, Avowed, Hellblade 2, Forza Motorsport, and Clockwork Revolution all show...

Our meandering through the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters continues with Final Fantasy II, widely considered the 'black sheep' of the traditional series. But a lot of that hinges on perception, or lack thereof. See, Final Fantasy II took forever to come to the west -- it came to Famicom in 1988 but never migrated outside of Ja...

It's time for a call-in with the newest member of the crew, Gene Park! Will the Apple Vision Pro be a success? How does Gene feel about the current state of PlayStation? Is creating novelizations of games a good idea? Is PlayStation producing good content on the TV and movie side with PlayStation Productions? Hit play and enj...

The PlayStation Showcase left many fans disenchanted, but can Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest deliver some positive energy? It turns out that yes, it certainly can. Spider-Man 2 now has a release date, Prince of Persia, Sonic, and Like A Dragon are all getting new entries, known titles like Mortal Kombat 1, Witchfire, Remna...

2023-06-07 16:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostSacred Symbols+, Episode 301 | Moriarty x Jaffe: On Fanboys, Showcases, and Zelda
Please welcome friend-of-the-show and industry veteran David Jaffe back to Sacred Symbols+. A week or so ago, in the wake of the PlayStation Showcase, I (Colin) emailed Jaffe to ask: What's the deal with all of the fanboys coming out of the woodwork? The scene seemed overrun worse than ever, and I wanted to see if he felt sim...

It's time for more Constellation! This week, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by Sacred Symbols co-host Chris Ray Gun and Last Stand associate producer Ben Smith. Dagan brings a heady topic to the table, one that we spend a lot of time discussing and dissecting: Why, exactly, do we play video games? What draws us to them? Why...

Much has been said about Redfall, but we could never pin down what exactly happened. Sure, we had our assumptions such as Redfall being a product of Zenimax's push into live service games or that much of Arkane bailed on this project in the middle of its development. All of those were guesses but thanks to a report by Bloombe...

Recently, I (Colin) sat down and did something unusual: I played through all of Forspoken. As you likely already know, Forspoken came out this past January as a PS5 console exclusive, and it didn't exactly light the world afire. In fact, it's thoroughly mediocre, a surprise considering the pedigree of both its publisher ...

We're more than a week distant from the recent, highly controversial PlayStation Showcase. And because we recorded our last episode directly after it, we did the best we could shooting from the hip. But with time to think, have our opinions on Sony's event evolved? We spend a lot of time talking about the fallout from th...

Hello! Let's play The Sacred Sales Saga, shall we? For the uninitiated, Sacred Sales Saga is a game we conduct here on +, and it all surrounds the monthly PlayStation Network sales charts. Every 30 days, Sony releases the 20 most-downloaded titles on PSN, and we try to guess that list. We made up a whole scoring rubric a...

The release of a new Zelda feels like an Olympic-level event. This release feels a little different due to the total domination not only in sales but also in cultural saturation. It feels like everyone is playing Tears of the Kingdom, and it makes sense since it sold 10 million copies in just three days. So, while we dive dee...
