Part two of our FPS series takes us from 1999 to 2003. The evolution of the FPS gains serious momentum when a certain title from Bungie studios debuts as a launch title for Microsoft's Xbox. I think we're just getting started.

Witness the humble beginnings and rise of one of the industry's most popular genres, the first person shooter. Part one shoots and bunny hops it's way through the 90's, you ready?

Resident Evil VIII Village, Starfield, RE4 Remake. Sparkeys tries to convince us of the merits of Virtual Reality gaming. Is $499.99 too much of a barrier to entry? Have you seen Barbenheimer yet?

Bryan invites his wife Erika back to discuss their recently completed playthrough of Final Fantasy XVI. In this spoiler-filled episode we discuss what it was like to experience our mutual game of the year and how the culmination of all of the elements led to what might be Erika's single favorite game of all time. Come to me Ifrit!!

If there's one thing we like doing almost as much as playing games it's scoring them. Reviews are as old as media itself, often leading to wildly different outcomes. What makes up the DNA of a level-headed review score? Is there any such thing as true objectivity?

Starfield facing competition this September? Cyberpunk 2077 wasn't broken at launch? Is Bryan out of line for comparing The Lord of the Rings: Gollum to Halo Infinite? These are the questions that keep us up at night, but hopefully, they just keep you entertained.

No one would have guessed during the Xbox One generation that Microsoft's console would become home of the RPG. What once looked like a bleak future now seems like an embarrassment of riches.

Joshua and Bryan haven't seen eachother in person since before this podcast was created in 2019. Here in person for the first time to discuss Xbox's banger of a showcase is Josh, Bryan and the return of his brother Crayton. It just works.

Geoff is back with his dead eyes and a new surprise. Find out what we thought of the showcase as we start with the C tier announcements and work our way up to the A tier. It's the summer of games!

2023 has been a banger of a year for video games and we're only halfway there. Joshua has finished Jedi Survivor while Bryan has finished Tears of the Kingdom. Which is better?
