Unskippable Dialogue

This week on Unskippable Dialogue, your favourite Irish gaming podcast duo, Pearse and Conor, unpack the biggest reveals, controversies, and chaotic moments from Summer Games Fest 2025. 🔥 We kick things off with the blazing hot sales of the Nintendo Switch 2 – but it's not all smooth sailing. From ghosting screens to a paper-thin launch lineup (where are the games, Nintendo?), we break down why fans are hyped and hesitant. 🏁 Then it's pedal to the metal with Mario Kart World Online – the new mechanics are bold, but the internet's not thrilled with the online changes. Is it the future of karting, or just a crash course in subscriptions? 🧟‍♂️ Next, we deep dive into Capcom's showcase: * Resident Evil 9: Requiem surprise drop * The long-lost return of Pragmata * Fresh faces in Street Fighter 6 Year 3 🚶 And of course, it wouldn't be summer without a bit of Kojima madness. Death Stranding 2: On The Beach has landed, complete with whales, monorails, and metaphysical mail carriers. But is it a masterpiece or a bizarre delivery sim? This episode is packed with banter, bold takes, and the best of gaming podcast chat. If you're into retro games, video game news, or want a good laugh while catching up on the latest in gaming, hit play and don't skip this dialogue. 🎧 Listen now and join the conversation – it's unskippable.

In this episode of Unskippable Dialogue, hosts Pearse McCann and Conor King revisit Stray, the cyberpunk cat-simulator that took the world by storm — and then gently knocked our hearts off the shelf. Originally released as a free PS Plus title, Pearse returns for a second playthrough on PS5 to re-examine what makes Stray such a standout indie hit. From its haunting, neon-drenched setting to the stunning art direction and evocative soundtrack, this feline-led adventure remains a beautifully-crafted gem. But it’s not all headbutts and nap spots — we dig into the divisive moment the cat gets a weapon, and whether this tonal shift derails the immersive worldbuilding or adds depth to the gameplay. As always, we close with our patented Unskippable rating — and yes, Stray claws its way to a full recommendation. Whether you’re a cat person, a cyberpunk fan, or just into games that don’t overstay their welcome, this one’s for you.
