All of the Day

All of the Day is back! Hooray! This week feels like a continuation of last week as far as what we've been up to. Setzer is still tinkering away at Scarlet Nexus until Elden Ring comes out, Cheston is still plugging away at Earthbound (and also at a network test for the wii sports sequel zero people asked for) and Derek finished the Sonic Unleashed epic that was like a year in the making! ...And also played some Horizon Forbidden West. Exciting!

In the news, Nintendo is closing down the eshop for the 3DS and Wii U. Didn't learn your lesson from Sony eh? Platinum is potentially dangling itself out for purchase, physical games are becoming more niche and....despite expecting nothing, Derek was STILL disappointed with some recent WWE 2K news. How will he endure?

In the game segment this week, the prices of some 'rare' games are discussed. There are some real doozies in this one from unexpected sources.

All of the Day returns with a very special...normal edition of the show! This week Setzer continues his march through the Scarlet Nexus bog, Cheston revs up Earthbound for the first time ever and also checks back in with a Xenoblade update and Derek revisits old punching bag Sonic Unleashed and has a shocking new perspective. 

In the news, there was a Nintendo Direct! That's all that matters, right? No? Well, okay, there was also some talk about Sony making a cool new AI that can obliterate pros at racing and MAME (not mugen dammit) celebrates its 25th birthday. The king of emulators! ...Except maybe zsnes of course.

This week's game sees us guessing what franchises will rise from their graves. Will Rock Band come back? What about Banjo-Kazooie or F-Zero or Quake? Our answers will probably (not) shock you!

Welcome back to All of the Day! We took a couple of weeks off because Derek (49ers) and Cheston (Rams) had teams that went deep into the NFL playoffs, but we are back now! This week Setzer wraps up the long and winding road that was Red Dead Redemption 2, Cheston plays some Xenoblade Chronicles and Derek touches on a little game called Pokemon Legends: Arceus.

In the news, wow, there were a lot of acquisitions while we were gone! If we took another week off, Nintendo might have been purchased by Sony or something! ...Let's hope not. The metaverse and whether bad games are better than bland games also gets some discussion.

This week, a price is right style game is played. The boys have to guess the prices of some famous DLC. How much did Horse Armor cost? How about Protoman in Mega Man 9? Who wins a...BRAND NEW CAR? Or nothing at all but bragging rights really?

All of the Day is back again! This week, Cheston gets to experience fatherhood for a second time by welcoming in his second child! Despite this, he had time to get himself wrist deep into Paper Mario. Derek played the classic Ninja Gaiden Black and Setzer is still beating the Red Dead Redemption 2 drum...which he might be doing for a while yet.

In the news, NF...just kidding, no NFT news this week! Yay! But we do talk about microtransactions in Halo again and Microsoft wishing for a way to universally ban problematic people. It should be noted that this episode was recorded BEFORE the Microsoft/Activision mega acquisition so that is not mentioned at all. The topic of Roblox and monetizing children is also broached. Just what everyone wanted, adult men talking about Roblox!

For this week's little game, we have fun with IGN's Top 100 games list. Could we do better? Not likely. But hey, we try to futz around with it a little bit anyway.

All of the Day returns! This week, Setzer bounced right off of Control but then fell head first into a Red Dead Redemption 2 hole. Cheston decided to get back into Dicey Dungeons again and Derek has takes on Deathloop and the long promised complete visit to Balan Wonderworld. Seriously, don't play that game unless you hate yourself like Derek does.

In the news, would you believe there's more NFT talk? Because there is! Also the Playstation VR 2 was announced and E3 2022 is going to be online only...again. Probably for good? Well, who can say. "All Takes Considered" is also played. Finally, NPR meets video games, a truly blissful marriage. Is there a reason to do a faithful remake? Is Halo's shitty open world good, actually? Is IGN's Top-100 worth reading? Find out!

All of the Day is back for the new year! We are back to normal after two weeks of game of the year nonsense. Derek played a bunch of old games during the break (specifically Ocarina of Time and Mario 64), Setzer got wrist deep into Dishonored 2 and Cheston talks about the critic approved version of 12 Minutes, Overboard. And also a bunch of other stuff.

On the news front, NFT discussion is back yet again. The boys also discuss a possible Death Stranding 2, Nintendo taking a hacker to court and the analogue pocket. After the news, the boys play a prediction game for 2022. What will get delayed? What will the critics say gets game of the year? What do they think will actually be the game of the year? Who is gonna get fired this year and why should it be Bobby Kotick?

All of the Day returns again with the final episode of 2021! Recoil in fear as Derek, Cheston and Setzer unveil their top favorite games of 2021. Derek and Cheston go the traditional route of "best games released in the calendar year 2021" while Setzer opts for the "best games I played in 2021." Not going to spoil the listerinos in the description, but it's safe to say that Metroid Dread, Psychonauts 2 and Deathloop are all very well represented.

Hello and welcome back to All of the Day! After a signature week off, the crew comes back to discuss the rest of Shin Megami Tensei V, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, FFXIV Endwalker, Deathloop and a whole heaping helping of Halo discourse.

In the news, It Takes Two gets sued! How bizarre! Also it's alleged that a new Dragon Age is coming eventually and a strangely high number of xbox cloud players elect to use touch controls. Insanity. The boys also play a game of "naughty or nice." Who gets coal? Who gets presents? I'm sure you can figure it out.

All of the Day is back again with special guest...Setzer? He's back! This week the boys chat extensively about Halo Infinite, dip their toes into Shin Megami Tensei V and get deep into the thick of it with NFTs (again), Bobby Kotick (again) and WWE 2K (again.) Hey, it's holiday time, reruns are cool!
