Our brains hurt! Chris has come down with more Final Fantasy the poor guy, but he doesn't seem to mind - in fact he's been getting high off the Final Fantasy X Remaster, and tries to push it on Tom, who now knows more than two facts about the game. There's a review of Supermassive Games' Heavy Agenda and the Icarus-esque flight it manages towards greatness, a decent natter about Silent Hill 2's endings, voice acting in Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid 1 and a fun digression into anti-piracy measures.
This week's focus is of course John Dies At The End, a fun if deliberately obtuse film - the kind that is taking you on a very strange trip indeed. The irony is John bites it about halfway through, but comes back - unlike Matt's microphone, which stayed dead. Determined to salvage a very interesting conversation, we chat about Paul Giamatti's involvement, Barkley, Marconi and the twisted soy-sauce itself. We couldn't explain it to you if we tried; much like Arnie Blondestone, you have to see the thing for what it is. Just don't ever look in the corner, a creepy spider thing lives there. We don't talk about the corner. Closing things out, Tom and Chris air their grievances with modern-day supermarkets and their fascination with offloading their jobs onto us! TAKE BACK YER JOBS!
