About the Podcast

The long-awaited remake for one of the most beloved Video Games of all time is finally here. Final Fantasy VII Remake is an ambitious and exciting game that doesn't just remake an old game but attempts to go beyond what a remake is. While it has its fair share of issues, it's fun and tactical combat, expanded scope and cinematic visuals brings Midgar to life. 

 About the Episode

This episode is entirely a review for 2020's Final Fantasy VII Remake. Initially teased in Son'y 2015 E3 Conference, it changed developers over the course of development and split into multiple games. Remake only covers the initial chapters that took place in Midgar, and was originally around 5 hours long.  Final Fantasy VII Remake is 40 hours long.

Demon's Souls is finally getting a remake from Bluepoint Games, but these days it's far from the best in the series. So this had us wondering how much should change in the Demon's Souls Remake? We'd argue a lot. We also discuss our early impressions for the Last of Us Part II, speculate on PS5 pricing and why we're excited for Spider-Man Miles Morales & Horizon Forbidden West!

About the Episode

Demon's Souls is From Software's first Souls game, and a Playstation 3 exclusive title. Bluepoint Games, best known for remaking Shadow of the Colossus for the Playstation 4 are developing this remake of the game and it has us very excited!

There have been some great remakes for many games in the last few years. From the incredible Final Fantasy 7 Remake to the Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy. But what do we think should get the same treatment? We also discuss Sony's latest State of Play as we're very excited to finally play The Last of Us Part 2! It gave us a great look at the new open environments, gameplay additions and new systems to see just how it's improved over the original. We also discuss if Geoff Keighley's Summer Games Fest will replace E3!

About the Episode

Sony's digital events are called "State of Play" which can cover a few or a single game. The one featured in this episode focused on Naughty Dog's upcoming (at the time) game, The Last of Us Part 2. The sequel to the beloved PlayStation 3 exclusive, The Last of Us. 

Summer Games Fest is a multiple month-long event featuring game announcements, and it aims to replace E3 as it was cancelled because of certain events. Where companies like Microsoft and Bethesda would showcase their new games.
