This week, we’re talking Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade hitting different under COVID, Star Wars: Knights of the old Republic giving us some old school RPG goodness, Deep Rock Galactic’s casual conquistadoring, a retro motorsport anime, and going for a damn walk. Just go do it already. Log off. Still listen to this though.

Check out our friend Manny’s stuff!

The end is HERE. Well, for 2021 at least. Join us as we take one last look at our holiday games playlist, the stuff we liked that are *crucially* not games, and one last round of questions for the road to either chill with on New Years Eve or ring in the new year with. Happy New Year!

Happy holidays! This week, we’re taking it easy and talking about a couple of the games we’re still checking out like Dead Cells, Guardians of the Galaxy, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Generation Zero. We’re also giving a few non-gaming options to stream while you’re pretending to have a headache when visiting family. <3

After a lackluster 2021 Game Awards, Paul returns home with a renewed perspective on the games media circus and cools down with Halo Infinite’s campaign, Cam ventures into the calming (?) wilds to pet robot dogs in Generation Zero, and we take a peek into the future with that Unreal Engine 5 Matrix demo.

Surprise! It’s a Wednesday drop because Paul’s off to LA to hang out with the Fanbyte crew in-person. Before that though, Cam and Paul chat more Halo Infinite, Solar Ash, Pen15’s brilliant final season, and the joys of unpacking and making a new place feel like home.

With Cam on the ISS this week, Paul’s joined by our friend Renata Price, Staff Writer at Kotaku, to talk more Halo Infinite, Shin Megami Tensei V, Guardians of the Galaxy and more. Plus we give you PLENTY of non-gaming recommendations to keep you covered while you recover from those booster shots and answer all of your questions. And yes, we go over our top songs of 2021, don't worry.

For this Thanksgiving, we’re here to help you avoid weird family members or help endure any travel with more chat about Halo Infinite multiplayer, the disappointing launch of Battlefield 2042, Life Is Strange: True Colors, and Sable. Throw in some solid non-game recommendations, a couple of your questions and you might just need a nap after this one.

This week, we’re joined by Fanbyte’s Head of Media, John Warren, to chat about Halo Infinite, The GTA Remastered collection, Circuit Superstars and a few non-gaming options that include a documentary, some music, and TV so you can put that damn controller down for a little bit. Plus find out whose job we’d love to trade with...
