Mostly Normal Gamers Podcast

James and Jon talk about the wonderfully confusing Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth. Jon has also played Pepper Grinder and is struggling with whether or not to finish Lies of P. James and Jon also played Tales of Kenzara: Zau...our reviews are mixed at best.

Yeah, I know, it's a lame title but a good episode. Promise! Jon finished the surprisingly long Dave the Diver and the frenetic and fun Neon White.  James played through the newest installment in Silent Hill and Celeste 64.  We also chat about Assassin’s Creed Mirage, the latest PlayStation State of Play and do some trivia!!!

While Angie’s been living out her fantasies in Hogwars Legacy, Chris put plastic on his windows...he also played some video games. Sayonara Wild Hearts, Donut County, he battled old age in Fortnite Festival, Alan Wake 2, Monster Hunter World, PuzzMo, Cocoon.  I think he’s making up for some lost time.  They also talk about the Game Shark which no one has done in 30 years and more lay-offs (sad face).

In the search for something that hits, Jon’s been playing ALL THE GAMES!  James has been playing some Mario RPG and Baldur’s Gate 3.  James is also on BlueSky now so he’s inarguably the coolest person on this podcast now.

Chris and James jive games…once they figure out which episode they’re on!  James has been playing Spider-Man 2, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, It Takes Two, Alan Wake and Slay the Princess.  Chris got to go to the M+ Dev Conference in Madison, WI! They also talk about PCs or something for a bit…I don’t know, I stopped paying attention here;-)  Chris has been rocking TOTK, KOTOR, Venba and Marvel Snap.  Lastly, they get into The Game Awards nominees for this year and, sadly, more layoffs in the video game industry.

Pay no attention to what Chris says, this is Episode 182! Chris and Angie catch up on some TOTK.  What can we say, it’s a great game!  Angie’s also on the precipice of finishing Luigi’s Mansion 3.  Chris has been playing Cocoon, Chicory, and KOTOR.  They also talk about the Microsoft acquisition of Activision/Blizzard/King.  What game do you want Xbox to bring back from Activision?

Angie and Jon catch up for the first time in awhile! Jon's been playing Cocoon, Spider-Man 2 and Plague Tale: Requiem. Angie has been playing some things and having a hard time finishing them. We hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween!!! Also, thanks to Charlie_Raven on pixabay.com for the spooky sounder I added this week.  Enjoy!
