Factory Sealed Video Game Podcasts

The force is not strong with us. We channel our inner pod racer with Star Wars Episode 1: Racer and Jess lights her truck on fire in the process. Eric and Dan finish Metal Gear Solid V and lament over the mixed emotions they are left with.

We get existential with developer Will O’Neill as we wax philosophical about his semi-autobiographical creation Actual Sunlight. We’re are we going? Is this all worth it? Who knows. Just don’t go to the roof.

20 years of PlayStation memories, a few questionable Mario purchases, and two plausibly confirmed myths regarding Mario 3 and the true familial loins from which Bowser Jr. was cast forth. Wot?

Eric and Dan hold the fort as Jess and Tom are possibly currently deceased. Discover whether Crash Bash is a euphemism, how Kiefer Sutherland sucks as Snake, and revel in the debut of the Random Game Generator!

Dan taunts us with his early copy of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain while the rest of us prepare by brushing up on our combat skills with Metal Gear Solid: VR Missions and King of the Monsters.

Often revered as one of the greatest RPGs of its era, The Legend of Dragoon feels more like a summer filled with household chores than a game worthy of such high praise. But does it have enough for us to see it through to the end?

Rocket Knight Adventures sends us wandering down a very dark and twisted path in search of answers to why all the pigs take their clothes off when they die.

We wrap up our thoughts on The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, but not before we dissect the crack-level addictive qualities of Rocket League.

Dan admits he’s wrong for the first time ever as we discuss how despite being the tiniest Zelda game, the Minish Cap may also be one of the best.

We don our running sneakooors and accompany Sonic on his slowest fetch quest yet in Sonic 3D Blast. Unfortunately, we return with only a drunkenly opened suitcase and a single flesh tunnel.
