Episode 124 - Comrades Die Twice 1:25:39

20 hours назад1:25:39

1:25:39

It's Matt's month to choose the game, so we all played Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Truly one of the all time great games, and debatably FromSoftware's most thoughtful game. Unique and demanding combat and a challenging story that has us rethinking the "blessing" of immortality.

The Comrades round up the major gaming news from February. Major tech and gaming companies flip-flop on DEI initiatives, EA CEO Andrew Wilson believes Dragon Age: The Veilguard should have stayed a live service game, Uncle Phil Spencer concedes the console war once and for all, and Sony had a State of Play that left most people thoroughly whelmed.

1:11:57

The Comrades sit down to discuss season 2 of Arcane. Did it live up to the standard set by the stellar first season, which still holds our highest rating to date? For a show that invented lesbianism, it's sure got a lot going for it. Hosted by: @ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠bennybox427⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠cutthemike⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ @ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠whatsyourengel⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Matt.

What happens when you adapt an arcade game from the 1980's about giant animal monsters doing 9/11? A pretty entertaining movie featuring the Rock, that's what! Hosted by: @ ⁠⁠bennybox427⁠ ⁠⁠⁠ @ ⁠⁠cutthemike⁠⁠ @ ⁠⁠whatsyourengel⁠ ⁠⁠⁠ Matt. Theme music by Nico ⁠⁠patreon.com/campaigncomrades

13 weeks назад1:19:36

1:19:36

It's Ben's month to pick the game! We all play 2022's indie rpg, Citizen Sleeper. It's a game about androids, capitalism, ordinary people, and most importantly: mushrooms. How would you survive in the crumbling ruins of corporate exploitation? Hosted by: @bennybox427 @cutthemike @whatsyourengel Matt. Theme music by Nico patreon.com/campaigncomrades…

1:25:32

The Comrades bring together a grab bag of gaming news from the month of November. Elon Musk sticks his grubby little fingers in every gaming story, Xbox rolls out a brilliant new ad campaign, Sony intends to buy FromSoftware parent company (but only for the anime waifus), and the console war shifts to handhelds.

Episode 114 - Don't Worry, Be Angry Bird 1:08:20

1:08:20

The Comrades are really scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to video game adaptations with this one. What to say about the Angry Birds Movie? Well, for starters, it is deeply unfunny and will make your kid an anti-social weirdo. Surely this thing wasn't good/profitable enough to warrant a sequel...

The Comrades bring you our favorite news stories from the month of October. Game Freak gets real freaky. The big publishers and platforms are still trend chasing.

The Comrades sit down to watch the 2006 Silent Hill movie. Is it as bad as Rotten Tomatoes says it is? Is it a misunderstood masterpiece of adaptation storytelling? Or is it just a pretty mild stock horror film? Let's discuss. Hosted by: @bennybox427 @cutthemike @whatsyourengel Matt. Theme music by Nico patreon.com/campaigncomrades…
