South Figaro Podcast

So some stuff happened during this month's Nintendo Direct. We go on discussing it, in addition to other less-important stuff like Fallout 4. Somestickguy joins in to talk some more Steven Universe, Blue Map talks about how much he likes (?) Clandestine, and LockedonTarget feels it's about time Chun-Li put on some damn pants already.

A week off from spoilercasting Undertale means a mercilessly long followup episode where everyone eagerly talks about what they've been playing. LockedOn, Beeb, Blue Map and Stickguy just can't resist spending endless hours on Assassin's Creed: Syndicate, Warhammer Vermin Tide, 80 Days and many other games while lamenting the absurdly jam-packed week that awaits us. At this rate, we won't survive before the holidays have run their course. Pray for us all.

The game that became an instant sensation across social media and was previously endorsed for hours in this podcast is finally getting a full episode discussion! ThatDudeOverThere, Fencingsax, Beeb and Blue Map join me in discussing the good times we had with Undertale, while Somestickguy sticks around long enough to talk about the bad times. No stone is left unturned (because we asked it politely to turn itself over) as we dive deep into the endings, secrets and moments of this Game of the Year contender.

More and more peeps are getting into Undertale, but we're still not ready to talk about it (yet). LockedOn continues his trip toward Destiny lane while making a pitstop over at Zestiria Avenue. Blue Map brings up yet another game I hadn't heard of, Fencingsax gets into censorship semantics, and I gush about Steven Universe season 1. Also various news bits and "interest pieces", including my attempts to convince everyone how I'm totally not salty over the latest Death Battle outcome. Really, I'm not! Honest!

Well, maybe a little.

Beeb and Blue Map join me for the night to talk about anything tha isn't Undertale or MGSV (while I continue to play the latter during recording). Star Wars Battlefront Beta, Corpse Party Blood Drive, Splatoon and a whole bunch of card game discussion await within.

Thanks to somestickguy's gracious gifting, I am determined to offer my own opinions on Undertale, while LockedOnTarget rolls out his thoughts on Transformers Devastation and Rock Band 4. We also get into the usual discussions involving Konami's increasingly scummy practices as well as my current status on Steven Universe. The 4Kids One Piece rap also comes up for some ungodly reason.

Somestickguy and Blue Map perform a duet of hype as they spin their tale about why Undertale might just be the greatest RPG they ever played. LockedOnTarget also tries to convince me about how much Destiny has improved, Beeb can't stop dancing to Dancing All Night, and I unleash my fury over the most heart-wrenching Konami news yet. Also we talk Anime for a bit, because Sticks is here.

Edit: Fixed a few audio issues.

Fencingsax and I engage in a duet of discussion about the many games I've been playing this month (including those that are not yet available to the public) while we also discuss the latest tiny smatterings of Final Fantasy XV news, the concerning reports of Assassin's Creed Syndicate's performance, and why VR gaming may end up being the next big revolution for one specific genre of videogames.

After getting the requisite Metal Gear Solid V (and Konami bashing) talk out of the way, the gang dives into the growing pile of news during TGS 2015. Join us as we cheer (Gravity Rush PS4) and jeer (Persona 5 delayed) the latest happenings in Japan.

We keep the Metal Gear Solid V train rolling with more (spoiler-free) talk, while desperately trying to acknowledge other notable games this month, including Super Mario Maker and Until Dawn.
