News broke not that long ago that famed Hong Kong action director Corey Yuen (Yes, Madam!, The Transporter) had actually passed away a few years ago, so we decided to pay our respects by watching his final North American directorial effort, DOA colon Dead or Alive – and it rules?? Join us as Corey Yuen gives us the glorious trash masterpiece we could have hoped for, complete with babes, brawls, and Eric Roberts’ flowing locks.

This week, we talk about how Uforia: The Saga 2’s grating soundtrack ruins an otherwise pleasant game, how Darkest Dungeon 2’s approach to its characters makes suffering with them that much more fun, and how Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure cleverly breaks up its brain-busting puzzles into bite-sized chunks.

This week, we talk about why we’re drawn back to old games, the empty calories of Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition, and the fun but hollow world of Rolling Hills: Make Sushi, Make Friends.

We’re having a grand old time under the sea this episode, as David talks about how Another Crab’s Treasure is one of the most pleasant soulslike games he’s played and Susan discusses the horrors found in the depths of Still Wakes the Deep. We also open the show trying to answer the burning question of the summer: Are video games doing ok right now?

This week, we’re diving into Stellar Blade (aka the Snyder Cut of video games), revisiting Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door after kind of not liking it back when it came out, and the archaic pleasures of old adventure games with Famicom Detective Club.

This week is full of cool indies. We talk about Simogo’s latest hotness, Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, survival horror throwback Crow Country, and the secret-filled Animal Well. David also talks about Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past, because he has a problem.

This week, Anthony summoned the power of Grayskull and brought forth a commentary track for Cannon Film Group’s 1987 cult classic Masters of the Universe. David and Susan aren’t quite sure what the power of Grayskull even is (or why He-Man is apparently barely even in the movie that’s about him) but Anthony’s sure to explain in great detail.

This week, we discuss how the recent Fallout TV adaptation ends up sticking the landing despite a rocky start, and we talk about how Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is giving people the warm PS1 RPG blanket everyone said they wanted.
