The Weekly Daily - A Gaming News Podcast

Blizzard's got new problems with their games effectively shut down in China after a "bad break-up" with NetEase. Forspoken released with some rather lackluster reviews. Also, we've been playing FFXIV and are looking forward to leaving Ishgard and the Seasonal Affective Disorder that accompanies it behind.

In upcoming games: Silly dodgeball, dungeon crawler in space, and pretty game about taking pictures and stuff.

AGDQ 2023 has concluded, so we give our highlights. With AGDQ ending, we've concluded our Hades runs, and have our best results for that. Plus, bees.

Upcoming games include: A nice point-and-click from a familiar face, anime tactics, and expensive magic parkour sim (with a side of combat).

AGDQ is in full swing once again! Plus, making plans is hard and our progress in our Hades speedruns.

In upcoming games: One that's familiar, one that's cool, one that's a very popular pirate anime.

Happy New Year! A look at a game demo gets us talking about nostalgia in gaming, and we talk more about our progress in bringing down our Hades runtimes leading up to AGDQ.

Continuing from last week, we talk more about our experiences in FFXI and in our forays into Hades speedrunning.

That's right! It's been a year (and six days) since we started on this adventure. We look back on a year of figuring out how to podcast, ponder on the future of the podcast, and talk about our recent foray into a VERY old MMO.

We're back, Chris isn't sick, and we have some Game Awards to talk about. We recap some of the announcements and other highlights from last week's event.

In the upcoming games, a red panda with PTSD and Slavic mythology.

We're back! This is our first episode back since Pokemon Scarlet/Violet released, so we had notes. Aside from that, Pokemon also has some issues popping up with Pokemon TCG Live, the newer version of their online TCG. Plus, Callisto Protocol has a day 1 season pass that includes... extra death animations? And story DLC, of course. Also, EA's submitted another patent, this time for collusion detection in online games, and Facebook says they've made considerable progress with CICERO, an AI that has achieved "human-level performance" in the board game Diplomacy.

For upcoming games, yet another Square Enix release, Warhammer 40k: Darktide, and the aforementioned Callisto Protocol, among others.

Game Awards 2022 approaches, and the nominees for this year have been announced, with a solid selection for GotY and a new category: Best Adaptation. Plus, Splatoon 3's Pokemon-themed Splatfest ended in a landslide, Dark Souls Remastered is back online on PC, and cheat maker AimJunkies' counterclaim against Bungie for alleged hacking and "clandestine surveillance" has been dismissed by the judge. Plus, regarding the real world, Beck goes on a rant regarding art censorship and the looming threat of worldwide conflict.

In upcoming games: Pokemon, third-person action-shooters, and goats.

This week, we talk about the perils of game reviews from publications, a cool idea that EA patented, and more.

Upcoming games include Norse gods, medieval art, aliens and more.
