PS Plus Game Club - Episode 44 Bramble: The Mountain King

This time Jordan and Krissy join Kevin to talk about Bramble: The Mountain King. This game starts out very innocent looking, but quickly takes a very dark turn into material akin to Grimm’s fairytales. The three of them all talk about why that makes the game so interesting and how the game iterates on the nordic stories it is based on. Then they do a quick run-through of the story and break down each of the monstrous bosses that our young protagonist Olle encounters. From Näcken, the fiddler at the lake, to Skogsrå the forest changeling they marveled at them all and you’ll hear why. They also all agree that this game has one of the best versions of “In the Hall of the Mountain King” and makes incredible use of it. If you haven’t played the fairytale Bramble: The Mountain King, we hope hearing about our experience gets you interested.

Trophy Talk Podcast - Episode 147: Pelican Drop

Hello one and all, and welcome back to another episode of Trophy Talk! Can you believe it? The time has finally come to talk about Halo: Campaign Evolved, as Master Chief makes his debut on PlayStation. Does Halo: CE now 25 years old still hold up all these years later? How did the change to UE effect the overall look and feel of the game? What are our hopes and dreams for future Halo projects that could come to PlayStation? Well, Josh and Colin cover all of that, and a good deal more as they camp out on Spartan 117 for quite some time. In addition to the Halo conversation, the crew of course takes some time to re-touch on the ongoing analysis of PlayStation's move away from physical disc production in 2028. Is the proposed blackout of the PSN from August 23rd - August 30th the right way to send a message to PlayStation, and make a difference? Or ultimately, are the die already cast as we march inexorably forward towards a digital only future? Only time will tell, but Josh and Colin do have some thoughts on the matter, and suggest ways to maybe alter some of the more popular methods of protest. On top of all of that there is of course a discussion on what event is coming up next for the Discord and when it begins, a Trophy Talk edition of Cactuar vs. Tonberry, Plat Shout Outs, and what we've been playing. We hope that you all enjoy listening to the episode, and thank you for your time.

Kevin is joined by Kristen (TheGameDame on Twitch) to talk about Supermassive's first and arguably best “horror movie” game, Until Dawn. This episode covers both the original 2015 PS4 version and the 2024 PS5 remake by Ballistic Moon. They start off by talking about what made this particular game so special when it first released and how it took a niche genre and elevated it. They list off which characters and actors they love, hate, and absolutely love to hate. Then they rank this up against the other Supermassive games like Little Hope and House Of Ashes and recommend which ones you should play or skip. To wrap things up they go through a quick spoiler filled breakdown of the story and both list off which characters had some of the worst deaths in the game. Again, this covers both the original PS4 version and the remake on PS5, and we hope you enjoy this dive back into Until Dawn.
