All of the Day

All of the Day returns with just a standard episode! No gimmicks just the hits! This week Cheston talks about the second Gameboy Advance Castlevania game and Derek discusses Live a Live before briefly touching on Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Setzer is still in a Monster Hunter hole so nothing new on that front. On the news side, things that are potentially worse than microtransactions are discussed. Also, is playing a lot of games bad for your mental health? No. Well, okay, we discuss it anyway.  Intro theme: Battle! vs boss from Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Outro theme: Megalomania from Live-a-Live Twitter: @allofthedaypod Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com

All of the Day is back! This week, we do a little something different and discuss the mechanics in games that drive us bonkers. We bitch about things like lousy awards for quest items, overuse of experience points and the scourge that is known as ice levels. Who likes to slide around everywhere? What will join the prestigious Redem...err...All of the Day Hall of Shame alongside Banjo Nuts & Bolts and Marvel vs Capcom Infinite? Well you'll just have to listen to find out! Intro theme: Rolling Start from Daytona USA Outro theme: The Segata Sanshiro theme from a Japanese advertisement campaign for the Sega Saturn email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day returns! Sorry we aren't more consistent but good lord it's been a busy summer for us. But hey, we're here now. Setzer finally gets his hands on Monster Hunter Rise, Cheston plays the hottest game of 2020 Fall Guys and Derek plays another musou! Also he got a steam deck and that'd discussed briefly. I hope you enjoy emulation chatter! ...I know I do! In the news section, the contents of Nintendo's secret vault gets discussed. Also Bioware's dumb e-currency bites the dust which means the much beloved Cerberus Cerberus network is no longer functioning. RIP. No game this week but next episode we're gonna try an alternate format so look forward to that! Intro theme: Ice Cap zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (Possibly done by Michael Jackson) Outro theme: Birthday Cake from Jet Set Radio Future email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day is back with everyone in attendance! Derek discusses some Castlevania and Persona 4, Cheston dishes on TMNT: Shredder's Revenge and also Castlevania and Setzer also discusses Cas...just kidding, he talks briefly about Breath of the Wild before asking for buying advice on a meme game from pandemic's past.  There is no news this week so the fellas keep it loose and play a little game. Why does Atlus hate money so much? What does Star Field make you think of? Lots of questions are answered! We also go in depth on some food hot takes. Who knew crinkle fries were such a contentious issue? email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Big Apple, 3 p.m. by Tee Lopes from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge) Outro theme: The Tragic Prince from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

This week, it's a slightly different episode. Derek and Cheston break down the Microsoft fake E3 conference and then make predictions for a Nintendo Direct that, as of the writing of this blurb, hasn't happened yet. We'll see if and when it does!  email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Burn My Dread from Persona 3 Outro theme: Iwatodai Station from Persona 3

All of the Day is back after a recording snafu killed the most recent episode. Hey, no troubles this time! Derek discusses the new release Rogue Legacy 2 and the ancient release L.A. Noire, Cheston gives a book report on Reggie Fils-Aime's autobiography and then a movie review on the Uncharted movie and Setzer finally has a chance to break down Breath of the Wild. Anything is possiblllllleeee. In the news this week, Activision-Blizzard's inclusion algorithm gets mocked. The topic of what franchises should or shouldn't be milked also gets brought up. Oh and...do I smell a sequel to the switch? No? ...Well hey, maybe someday. The game this week sees the boys talk about a variety of recent controversies and assigning SPF grades based on how much help they need. It's not so confusing when you hear it play out! email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @alloftheday Intro theme: Nate's theme from Uncharted 1-3 Outro theme: Bink's Sake/Brew instrumental from One Piece

All of the Day is back! It's been a couple weeks so Derek has brought a lot of games to the table. Triangle Strategy, Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Chrono Cross to be exact. Meanwhile Cheston found himself wrist deep in Lego Star Wars and Tunic! Setzer took the time to finally complete the FF XIV expansion. It was a long time coming boys but he liked it so the wait was worth it. In the news corner, super games are discussed. What even is a super game anyway? Well, we'll find out! The pricing of the latest Sonic port is also discussed along with the burning question of "why the hell don't they port Saturn games ever?" Also Kingdom Hearts 4 was announced. I'm sure nobody could be excited for that one.  In the games section, old franchises the boys would like to see revived are brought up. There are a lot of dead IPs out there apparently!  email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Sonic Boom from Sonic CD (U) Outro theme: You can do Anything AKA Toot Toot Sonic Warrior from Sonic CD (JP)

All of the Day is back! Our weekslong Elden Ring discussion is over so now KIRBY KIRBY KIRBY HE'S THE STAR OF THE SHOW. Derek and Cheston both got a lot of time with the new Kirby game! Derek also got wrist deep into Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin while Setzer got a bit deeper into Final Fantasy XIV. About dang time! On the news side of things, press F for E3 because it has gone under! ...for 2022 at least. There's also a new video game subscription service coming down the pipeline so the fellas use this chance to rank some of the more well known subscription services in gaming. Sadly we neglect to rank Sega Channel. Sorry Segata bros. Intro theme: Through the Tunnel from Kirby and the Forgotten Land Outro theme: Marbule (Home World) from Chrono Cross Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

Hello and welcome back to All of the Day! I swear one day we will stop being so inconsistent. Until then! Cheston has finally cleared Earthbound after like a 20 year odyssey and has also put in some time with that there kirbeh. Setzer very briefly got into Final Fantasy XIV and Derek very briefly got into Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. Once again, Elden Ring dominates the 'what have we been playing' segment as both Derek and Setzer finished the fight! What did they think? ...Well spoiler they like it a lot. In the news...not much is going on this week so the fellas talk about the dumpster fire that is Gran Turismo 7 and then spin that off into a conversation about grinding in general. Nobody really likes grinding...or do they? Well Derek loves Disgaea so there's at least one. email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Shadows Rising from Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin Outro theme: The First Hunter from Bloodborne

All of the Day is back! This week, Derek finishes up Horizon Forbidden West, Cheston plays roughly 80 games and Setzer finally buys a Switch. Oh and a little game called Elden Ring came out. I'm sure a thing or two is said about it.  In the news, truthfully there isn't much this week but Babylon's Falls player count did not go unnoticed by the boys. Two whole maps are also being added to Halo. Wow! Then there's also some fun kicking around of ollllll Dragon Age 4. Poor game is due for a win any day now! Finally, in our game, Chef Chesteau is back! We choose between the most unfortunate horizon title, whether Metroid Prime 4 beats Dragon Age 4 out the door and whether the Switch OLED or Steam Deck is the definitive portable gaming system. Among other things. Exciting! Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @alloftheday Opening theme: Erdtree Knight from Elden Ring Closing theme: RIP from Triangle Strategy

All of the Day is back! Hooray! This week feels like a continuation of last week as far as what we've been up to. Setzer is still tinkering away at Scarlet Nexus until Elden Ring comes out, Cheston is still plugging away at Earthbound (and also at a network test for the wii sports sequel zero people asked for) and Derek finished the Sonic Unleashed epic that was like a year in the making! ...And also played some Horizon Forbidden West. Exciting! In the news, Nintendo is closing down the eshop for the 3DS and Wii U. Didn't learn your lesson from Sony eh? Platinum is potentially dangling itself out for purchase, physical games are becoming more niche and....despite expecting nothing, Derek was STILL disappointed with some recent WWE 2K news. How will he endure? In the game segment this week, the prices of some 'rare' games are discussed. There are some real doozies in this one from unexpected sources.  email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Opening theme: Eliminate the Others from Scarlet Nexus Closing theme: Franky's theme from Earthbound/Mother 2

All of the Day returns with a very special...normal edition of the show! This week Setzer continues his march through the Scarlet Nexus bog, Cheston revs up Earthbound for the first time ever and also checks back in with a Xenoblade update and Derek revisits old punching bag Sonic Unleashed and has a shocking new perspective.  In the news, there was a Nintendo Direct! That's all that matters, right? No? Well, okay, there was also some talk about Sony making a cool new AI that can obliterate pros at racing and MAME (not mugen dammit) celebrates its 25th birthday. The king of emulators! ...Except maybe zsnes of course. This week's game sees us guessing what franchises will rise from their graves. Will Rock Band come back? What about Banjo-Kazooie or F-Zero or Quake? Our answers will probably (not) shock you! email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro music: Mute City (melee version) from Super Smash Brothers Mleee Outro music: Metal Gear Solid main theme from Metal Gear Solid

Welcome back to All of the Day! We took a couple of weeks off because Derek (49ers) and Cheston (Rams) had teams that went deep into the NFL playoffs, but we are back now! This week Setzer wraps up the long and winding road that was Red Dead Redemption 2, Cheston plays some Xenoblade Chronicles and Derek touches on a little game called Pokemon Legends: Arceus. In the news, wow, there were a lot of acquisitions while we were gone! If we took another week off, Nintendo might have been purchased by Sony or something! ...Let's hope not. The metaverse and whether bad games are better than bland games also gets some discussion. This week, a price is right style game is played. The boys have to guess the prices of some famous DLC. How much did Horse Armor cost? How about Protoman in Mega Man 9? Who wins a...BRAND NEW CAR? Or nothing at all but bragging rights really? Intro theme: Gaur Plain from Xenoblade Chronicles Outro theme: We Are! (instrumental) from One Piece Game theme: The Price is Right theme song (pls no bully viacom) email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day is back again! This week, Cheston gets to experience fatherhood for a second time by welcoming in his second child! Despite this, he had time to get himself wrist deep into Paper Mario. Derek played the classic Ninja Gaiden Black and Setzer is still beating the Red Dead Redemption 2 drum...which he might be doing for a while yet. In the news, NF...just kidding, no NFT news this week! Yay! But we do talk about microtransactions in Halo again and Microsoft wishing for a way to universally ban problematic people. It should be noted that this episode was recorded BEFORE the Microsoft/Activision mega acquisition so that is not mentioned at all. The topic of Roblox and monetizing children is also broached. Just what everyone wanted, adult men talking about Roblox! For this week's little game, we have fun with IGN's Top 100 games list. Could we do better? Not likely. But hey, we try to futz around with it a little bit anyway.  Opening theme: The Tower of Dawn from Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time Closing theme: The Flutter from Mega Man Legends News intro theme: Dr. Light's Laboratory from Mega Man 8 Game intro theme: Grunty's Furnace Fun from Banjo-Kazooie Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day returns! This week, Setzer bounced right off of Control but then fell head first into a Red Dead Redemption 2 hole. Cheston decided to get back into Dicey Dungeons again and Derek has takes on Deathloop and the long promised complete visit to Balan Wonderworld. Seriously, don't play that game unless you hate yourself like Derek does. In the news, would you believe there's more NFT talk? Because there is! Also the Playstation VR 2 was announced and E3 2022 is going to be online only...again. Probably for good? Well, who can say. "All Takes Considered" is also played. Finally, NPR meets video games, a truly blissful marriage. Is there a reason to do a faithful remake? Is Halo's shitty open world good, actually? Is IGN's Top-100 worth reading? Find out! email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Opening theme: Jim Milton Rides Again from Red Dead Redemption 2 Closing theme: Chapter 6: Clocktower from Balan Wonderworld News intro theme: Setzer's theme from Final Fantasy VI Game intro theme: Grunty's Furnace Fun from Banjo-Kazooie

All of the Day is back for the new year! We are back to normal after two weeks of game of the year nonsense. Derek played a bunch of old games during the break (specifically Ocarina of Time and Mario 64), Setzer got wrist deep into Dishonored 2 and Cheston talks about the critic approved version of 12 Minutes, Overboard. And also a bunch of other stuff. On the news front, NFT discussion is back yet again. The boys also discuss a possible Death Stranding 2, Nintendo taking a hacker to court and the analogue pocket. After the news, the boys play a prediction game for 2022. What will get delayed? What will the critics say gets game of the year? What do they think will actually be the game of the year? Who is gonna get fired this year and why should it be Bobby Kotick? Opening theme: Cruis'n Blast Theme Song from Cruis'n Blast Closing theme: Windmill Hut from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time News interlude: Setzer's theme from Final Fantasy VI Game Inerlude: Grunty's Furnace Fun from Banjo-Kazooie Email: Allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day returns again with the final episode of 2021! Recoil in fear as Derek, Cheston and Setzer unveil their top favorite games of 2021. Derek and Cheston go the traditional route of "best games released in the calendar year 2021" while Setzer opts for the "best games I played in 2021." Not going to spoil the listerinos in the description, but it's safe to say that Metroid Dread, Psychonauts 2 and Deathloop are all very well represented. Intro theme: Gbraakon Escape from Halo Infinite Outro theme: I from 12 Minutes. Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod See you in 2022.

Welcome back to All of the Day! For the second straight year, the boys break down a bunch of arbitrary categories and hand out a bunch of arbitrary awards. Yes, we liberally ripped off old Giant Bomb. They're not using it! Awards for the following are given out: Best Old Old Game (i.e. Best Game Not Released This Year That Had Some Significance to Us This Year For Whatever Reason) Best New Old Game (i.e. Best Remake, Remaster, or PORT) The One That Got Away Award for Game You Wish You Had Played (or played more of) Best Mario Party Mini-Game Best Moment or Sequence The Sensory Subjectivity Award for Best Art Direction Best Delay Setzer Memorial Award for Scam of the Year Worst Cameo Worst Trend Golden Caca Award for Worst Game You Played This Year Next week will be our overall games of the year.

Hello and welcome back to All of the Day! After a signature week off, the crew comes back to discuss the rest of Shin Megami Tensei V, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, FFXIV Endwalker, Deathloop and a whole heaping helping of Halo discourse. In the news, It Takes Two gets sued! How bizarre! Also it's alleged that a new Dragon Age is coming eventually and a strangely high number of xbox cloud players elect to use touch controls. Insanity. The boys also play a game of "naughty or nice." Who gets coal? Who gets presents? I'm sure you can figure it out. Intro theme: Battle - Demon King Castle I from Shin Megami Tensei V Outro theme: God Hand ending credits from God Hand email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day is back again with special guest...Setzer? He's back! This week the boys chat extensively about Halo Infinite, dip their toes into Shin Megami Tensei V and get deep into the thick of it with NFTs (again), Bobby Kotick (again) and WWE 2K (again.) Hey, it's holiday time, reruns are cool!  Intro theme: Battle Theme 9 from Shin Megami Tensei V Outro theme: The theme from Return of the Obra Dinn Twitter: @allofthedaypod Email> allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com

All of the Day is back yet again! The missing Setzer arc rages on as Derek discusses Metroid Dread, Mario Kart 64 and Super Robot Wars 30. Cheston counters these with Super Metroid, Curse of the Obra Dinn and Kirby's Adventure! Wowza! On the news side, EA/Ubisoft/Square getting into NFTs maybe gets discussed. They also play their third game in a row by placing odds on things like "will overwatch 2 ever get released?" and "will 10,000 players log in to see Spidey in the Avengers game?" Spoiler alert, the answer to those questions is 'no.' Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Butter Building (Smash Wii U/3DS version of a Kirby's Adventure song) Outro theme: Honeylune Ridge: Escape from Super Mario Odyssey 

All of the Day is back at ya, much like Kirby! This week Cheston and Derek discuss Metroid Dread, Mario Party, Mother 3 and Back 4 Blood. Wait, one of those games isn't a new release!  In the news portion of the program, the boys talk about Blizzard, the ever increasing number of Marvel AAA games (including a new one by Amy Hennig's new studio) and a rumored WB Smash Brothers game. Will THIS be the platform fighter to dethrone the king? Well, probably not, but why not try! They also play another game this week, Saints or Sinners. Derek and Cheston talk about four things and either damn them to hell or grant them salvation. This features at least 95 minutes of Derek bitching about the live action Cowboy Bebop series so please look forward to it. Intro theme: Canyon Strike from Cowboy Bebop (PS1) Outro theme: Theme of Love from Mother 3 email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day is back after a bit of a hiatus! We hope to be more regular after getting this one out. We wanted to wait for all three of us to be free to do episode 50 but life would not cooperate, so Cheston and Derek pushed ahead and put out the milestone episode. Setzer can get even in episode 100! Anyway, this week Cheston finally plays a Yakuza and Derek plays two lengthy ass video games. They also play a game (kinda, its status as a game is up for debate) and go over some headlines. A different format for a special episode. E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Dearly Beloved ~Swing Version~ from Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory Game intro theme: Grunty's Furnace Fun from Banjo-Kazooie Game outro theme: Persona 5 Battle Victory music from...Final Fantasy X!? Ah, I kid, it's Persona 5. Outro theme: Theme of Samus Aran from Metroid Dread

All of the Day is back again! Two weeks in a row, what the hell is this? Setzer took the week off but in his stead we have Goose! You may remember Goose from such podcasts as...that one Redemption Arc we did on wrestling.  For what we've been playing, the main thing discussed is Scarlet Nexus - though Banjo-Kazooie and Batman are both discussed as well. The main event is the news, where we discuss the Mario casting in great detail, the N64 NSO lineup and the new Mario Party coming out soon. We have hot takes on Yoshi's Story! E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @alloftheday Goose's Twitch: nate2764 Opening theme: Jungle Japes from Donkey Kong 64 Closing theme: Sloprano from Conker's Bad Furday

Hello and welcome back to All of the Day! The podcast took a week off while Derek was off galivanting in Florida, but the boys are back! Derek dishes on all the Sonic shit he's been playing, Cheston borrowed Derek's PS5 and has hot takes on various Playstaton exclusives that he played and Setzer...played not much of anything!  In the news, Apple v. Epic is discussed, the crazy money laundering operations of Genshin Impact and Star Citizen are also broached and the KOTOR remake is discussed in detail. Exciting! Opening theme: Studiopolis Act 1 from Sonic Mania Closing theme: The Airbuster Phase 1 from Final Fantasy VII remake Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day is back! Everybody went and got (the non-covid) sickness last week so we skipped out, but we're all better and ready to chat! Derek tackled No More Heroes 3 and also dishes Psychonauts 2 with Cheston. Cheston also discusses 12 minutes and accidentally (?) vouches for incest. Setzer opens the way back machine and has some takes on Guild Wars 2. Apparently a lot of people still play this game, who knew! In the news this week, haptic controllers and the PS4 to PS5 game pipeline is discussed. WWE not being happy with 2K being delayed also gets a mention, specifically so Derek and Cheston can bitch about 2K games again. Also, would you believe it, but Sonic has made a joke of himself. Again! Setzer caps it off with some Destiny news! Oh that zany Bungie, what did you do this time? E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Opening song: Battle with the Tamini from Guild Wars 2 Closing song: City Escape from Sonic Adventure 2

All of the Day is back! Two weeks in a row, what the hell is going on? This week, Setzer puts a wrap on Bioshock, Cheston plays roughly 85 million things with the Ascent and 12 Minutes being the highlights and lowlights and Derek rips out his blade katana to play some No More Heroes. Did you know a new one of those comes out soon? Amazing. Meanwhile in the news, A NEW GPU CHALLENGER APPROACHES. Also the CoD mines get mentioned again, we break down Mega Man Universe and we revisit the Epic vs everybody in tech lawsuit. We heard the outcries with our shorty last week so we delivered one of our longest episodes yet! email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod (Derek accidentally just says @alloftheday this episode, how embarrassing) Intro theme: N.M.H. from No More Heroes Outro theme: Insomnia from Neo: The World Ends With You

All of the Day has returned! Just a 1 week getaway this time so you didn't escape us for too long. This week Cheston got wrist deep into some picross, Setzer tried to wrap his head around Bioshock and Derek hit up some new releases with discussions on both Great Ace Attorney and Neo: The World Ends With You. Is there a Kingdom Hearts connection? Probably not, but it still rules. On the news side of things, a devious Titanfall hacker gets discussed and Nintendo destroys a rom site owner for selling roms. Only Nintendo can sell you roms, idiot. Oh, and apparently Metroid turned 35. Since Zelda turned 35 this year, Nintendo doesn't care but hey, we gave our favorite crawling robot some love. Opening theme: Sherlock Holmes - The Great Detective of the Foggy Town from Great Ace Attorney Chronicles (I guess it'd be Herlock Sholmes in this case...but hey, I'm going by the song title youtube gave me) Closing theme: Twilight River from the 26th best Wii U game Pikmin 3 e-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day is back following a brief hiatus for summer related activities. Family! Who needs it! This week Setzer talks the Halo Infinite beta as well as Mech Warrior Online, Cheston dishes on the latest Mario Golf as well as Plague Tale and Derek addresses whether Squidward Sword is worth a revisit. Spoiler: it is!  In the news, the guys missed a bunch of stuff. They very briefly discuss the Activision Blizzard fiasco and also touch on the Steam Deck and the future utility of gaming devices. They call it the "third epoch." I guess that's one way to sound important. Intro theme: Skyloft from Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Outro theme: You Go Girl 2020 from Disgaea 6. Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod    

The third installment of Redemption Arc is here! Cheston and Derek are back to celebrate the 20th birthday of the gameboy advance, a system many think is the greatest portable of all time. So to celebrate, the boys rank portable Nintendo hardware revisions. We stick to Nintendo because we don't know how to rank things like the Wonderswan! Sorry PSP Go/Shitty Screen Vita! 

All of the Day is back yet again, this time with 50% less Setzer. That's right, it's a Derek and Cheston only episode today. This week Cheston discusses Bug Fables while Derek dishes on the DLC for DBZ Kakarot. The pair also chats about Sony and Microsoft making purchases and also the lack of Mass Effect or Dragon Age at EA's fake E3 thing later in July.  Twitter: @allofthedaypod email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Intro theme: Cha-la Head cha-la (orchestral) from Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Outro theme: Where Adventurers Gather from Bug Fables

All of the Day has returned! The lads took a bit of time off for summer shenanigans but they have come back with lots to chat about! Setzer played damn near every indy game that received a demo at E3, Cheston found out that Metroid can't crawl as he finally completed Metroid Zero Mission and Derek gave Disco Elysium another spinaroo. He apparently also played Ratchet & Clank: A Rift Apart but he forgot to mention it! Maybe next time boys. The boys also break down their E3 picks, as well as who won the zany E3 prediction contest. What did they think of the conferences? Did they shit on Ubisoft? Did Mech Warrior 5 sponsor this podcast? All that and more will be answered at some point in time. Twitter: @allofthedaypod e-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Intro theme: Brinstar Depths from Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Outro theme: Ballad of the Goddess from Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

The long awaited second episode of Redemption Arc is here! Things are slightly different than last time as Cheston and Derek talk about a conference instead of an actual game. Hey, it's E3 week baby, we gotta milk it for all it's worth. The two remember Nintendo's E3 2008 being a miserable experience but is it as bad as they remember? Was there something from that show that redeems it and puts it back in the good graces of...well...us?  Find out!  Intro theme: level 1-1 from Super Mario Bros. (Wii Music E3 2008 cover)

Do you like shows where folks makes predictions for E3 despite not having media contacts? Then boy howdy do we have a program for you! This week the boys forego the usual format to make predictions about E3. Nintendo, Microsoft, Square and...Miscellaneous predictions will be broken down and mocked accordingly. Did you know the people on this show have no reverence for Ubisoft...? Well I suppose it took only 41 episodes for that to come out. There's a fun scoring game we came up with too, the winner of it is expected to have a score of like -100. Hey man, we're opposed to scoring in all forms. email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Back Fire from Final Fantasy Tactics Outro theme: Yell Dead Cell from Metal Gear Solid 2 (SSBU version)

All of the Day is back yet again! It's a two-man episode this week after Setzer got a serious case of rabies. Thoughts and prayers everyone. This week Derek mostly talks about Nocturne while Cheston discusses the surprising Knockout City and continuing struggles with MLB The Show. Hey, no Setzer, more baseball talk was an inevitability. On the news side of things, a bunch of shit got announced. Did you know there are a lot of Dragon Quest games coming out? And a Virtua Fighter 5 remake was put out on PSN *check calendar* yesterday! Also Blizzcon got cancelled. Do the boys shit on Blizzard again? ...Duh! Twitter: @allofthedaypod Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Opening theme: Normal Battle (Town) from Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne Closing theme: Super Sonic Racing from Sonic R

All of the Day is back again! Derek digs deep into Final Fantasy XIV Shadowbringers, Setzer gets back into boomer shooters and Cheston revisits the Mass Effect trilogy. Too bad the FFXIV reaper joke was made last week because it could be made again! The discussion of whether the Quarians deserve it or not is also broached. On the news side, the fellas dig deep into Blizzard. Why do they feel like a shell of what they used to be? Final Fantasy and GPU news is also discussed. Crypto people may keep their mitts off GPUs in the future! 3080s here we come baby. Twitter: @allofthedaypod Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Opening theme: The End (reprise) from Mass Effect Closing theme: Amaurot Overworld Theme (Neath Dark Waters) from Final Fantasy XIV

All of the Day is back again! Last week the boys were all occupied with life but the gang is back together to discuss this week in video game news. Did you know Sony charges for funds lost on crossplay? Or that the Aussies took a break from shitposting online to discuss micro transactions and the like? And Giant Bomb is collapsing, who could forget that?  Derek spent his two weeks playing Resident Evil games, destroying the big tiddy vampire in style. Cheston tried Super Mario Party online to middling results and Alan Wake to slightly better results and Setzer...didn't play much of anything. Pft, does he have a life or something? Opening theme: Blue Fields from Final Fantasy VIII Closing theme: Like a Dream Come True from Persona 4 Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day is back again, this time in pog form! ...For children out there, 'pog' refers to weird cardboard disc things that had a minute of relevance in the 90s and not the phrase 'poggers.' This week Derek finishes Nier, Cheston breaks down the new Pokemon Snap and Setzer goes OFF SCRIPT and discusses anime. How exciting! He also dishes on Titanfall 2 just in case you needed more video game chatter. In the news, Sony and Microsoft appear to be staying the course. Activision is also staying the course. The course in this case means shuttering interesting studios and making them slave away on one of their giant IPs. Consistency! Also Super Mario Party got an update. Why? Who can say. Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Opening: Airport from Gundam Wing Endless Duel (SNES) Closing: Home Mabule from Chrono Cross

All of the Day is back again! This week the boys discuss some pretty zany Yoko Taro comments, Psychonauts 2 and whether or not Tim Schafer is a hack fraud and Sony proving that bullying is the correct path! They won't listen about backwards compatibility but at least you can buy PS3 and Vita games for...a couple of more years I suppose. On the game front, Derek played Nier. NOTE: He gets Gestalt and Revenant mixed up. The one most North Americans played was actually Gestalt, which stars Papa Nier. Hey, he told ya he never played it before! Setzer doesn't like Horizon Zero Dawn and Cheston talks MLB the Show. Fun times! Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Opening theme: Song of the Ancients ~ Devola from Nier: Revenant Closing theme: Whirling Cafeteria (Day) from Disco Elysium

All of the Day is back again! It's a slow news week, but boy howdy do the boys pick on Sony again. Sorry! Sorry! This episode was recorded on Sunday, April 18, which means that the news that Sony walked back on the PS3 and Vita stores did not make the cut. Sorry again! Anyway, the topics of what games are even gonna come out this year is broached. Turns out...not much. But we have Nier at least! Derek finally gives his thoughts on Monster Hunter RIse, Setzer finished up Tyranny and Cheston gives some more thoughts on A Way Out and also Dragon Quest XI S. It's a bitch-heavy week so be ready! Opening theme: Unflichable Courage from Dragon Quest XI S Closing theme: Every day's a sale! Every sale's a win! from Nier Automata E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod

All of the Day is back again! Setzer got a little sickly so it's just Derek and Cheston this week. The boys spend a lot of time breaking down what was a pretty middling week from Sony: from a former exclusive title launching day one on Microsoft's game pass to more Sony Japan departures. They also squeeze more talk about the PS3/Vita/PSP store closing. Wow! On the gaming side, this week Derek mostly talks about It Takes Two but also sneaks in a teensy bit of Monster Hunter Rise talk. Cheston is almost done with Mario 3D World and decided to wash the taste of that down with some Sam and Max Save the World remastered. They changed some dialogue but he seems to dig it so whatever!  Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Magnamalo Theme from Monster Hunter Rise Outro theme: W.A.R.P from Sam & Max Save the World (Remaster)

Cheston and Derek are on a quest to play an assortment of games that made players groan. Their objective? To determine if their reputation is earned, or if the games actually deserve to experience a redemption arc. First up is Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, the 2008 entry in a franchise of beloved 3D platformers that decided to eschew the genre altogether in favor of...cars? Buckle up.

All of the Day is back again, this time in pog form! Okay, not really. This week Derek played Tales of Berseria (not to be confused with the trails of franchise), Setzer continued his indie odyssey and also finished Prey (2016) and Cheston completed Crash 4 and dipped his toes in the indie well with Genesis Noir. Neat!  On the news side of things, the boys talk about a bunch of early revisions of PS2 games getting leaked, Sony shutting the door on PS3, PSP and Vita digital storefronts, the rebranded Xbox network and Valve no longer being afraid of counting to 3? Maybe? Twitter: @allofthedaypod email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Opening theme: Magilou the great sorceress from Tales of Berseria Closing theme: Toadman's theme from Mega Man 4

All of the Day is back yet again! Two in a row, nobody must be entertaining guests this week! Kind of a slow news week but we discuss stuff like Activision being scummy and Sony purchasing EVO. Also we've all played the hellscape that is Balan Wonderland now! So we've all got hot takes on that. Setzer spent this week playing some Prey, Cheston got wrist deep into Crash 4 and Super Mario 3D World (two games that have gotten play on this podcast already) and Derek finished Last of Us 2 and has his own takes on the game we're all tired of hearing. Yay! Email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Into the Tunnels from Prey Outro theme: Off-Balance from Crash 4: It's About Time

All of the Day is back again after another week off caused by family visitation! Derek, Setzer and Cheston discuss the big EA Ultimate Team scandal, the development of the Yakuza franchise and the least shocking game failure perhaps of all time. Even more than Anthem! This week Setzer wraps up his Fallout 76 exodus, Cheston gets wrist deep into Balan Wonderland (the demo, which I guess is infamously bad) and also finished Control and Derek sticks to type and plays Bravely Default 2. Shocker!  Twitter: @allofthedaypod E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Intro theme: Elvis special move theme from Bravely Default 2 Outro theme: Dishonored main theme from Dishonored

All of the Day is back yet again! This week Setzer takes us on a long odyssey through his Fallout New Vegas and 76 adventures, Derek digs into Persona 5 Strikers finally for further confirmation that he is indeed a musou guy and Cheston talks about Control and Mario Odyssey! Those are basically the same game, right? On the news side of things, a bunch of Final Fantasy and Pokemon games were announced so you know the fellas had something to say about that. Plus: Anthem died on the way back to its home planet and Epic says lootboxes are dead and offers a little (very little) something for those who indulged in em.  E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: The Turks theme from Final Fantasy VII Outro theme: Last Surprise from Persona 5 Strikers

All of the Day is back again! The boys gather and huddle in warmth to discuss the news in gaming this week. The Prince of Persia remake was delayed! Graphic technology is gettin' crazy! Some of the EA crew have said that the Mass Effect 3 ending is bad, actually!  This week, Setzer is back at New Vegas...this time in hardcore mode. Cheston got a Series S and details the exciting new console experience and Derek...true to form, played Kingdom Hearts. Finally! A Kingdom Hearts discussion on this podcast! E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Opening theme: Simple and Clean orchestral from Kingdom Hearts Closing theme: Moon River from Bayonetta 2...and many other places but THIS version of the song is from Bayonetta 2.

All of the Day is back after a week off! The whole crew is back this time, including a couple of choice drop ins from Cheston Jr., to discuss all the latest happenings in the game industry. Did you know there are developments in technology that can alter your brain? Or the the Nemesis system was patented and that's why nobody has tried to make anything quite like it? Setzer got wrist deep into Fallout New Vegas for the first time this week, Cheston finally finished Mario Galaxy and Derek gives us his thoughts on the long anticipated playthrough of Sekiro. E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Buoy Base Underwater from Super Mario Galaxy Outro theme: Guardian Ape from Sekiro

All of the Day is back! This week, Setzer is the one who is missing so Derek and Cheston take charge and discuss the news of the week, including Microsoft's bizarre decision to increase and then renege on an XBL price increase. Cheston spent most of his week playing Mario Galaxy and thinks maybe it was rated a little low in our Mario rankings and Derek played 13 Sentinel, a game so good that he looks down on publications that don't rate it highly!  Intro theme: High Alert from 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim Outro theme: Honeyhive Galaxy from Super Mario Galaxy Twitter: @allofthedaypod email: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com

All of the Day is back! It's just Setzer and Derek this week. Cheston was supposed to come but he got into a Switch related incident. Shameful. Regardless, this week the boys discuss the booming Nintendo economy and a brave new world for Star Wars games. Wouldn't it be neat if something outside of the standard AAA fare got ahold of Star Wars? Alas, enjoy climbing your AT-ATs to unlock the rest of the map. Setzer played more Jurassic World: Evolution and Derek played .hack //G.U. Apparently offline MMOs are more fun in theory than in real life.  E-mail: allofthedaypodcast@gmail.com Twitter: @allofthedaypod Intro theme: Will Power from Persona 5 Outro theme: Sonic Boom from Sonic CD

All of the Day is back for this exciting new year! 2021, or 2020-2 depending on who you ask, sees us pretty much doing what we did at the end of last year. Derek, Setzer and Cheston discuss some of the news that came in while we were doing game of the year stuff - Cyberpunk drama, Nintendo news, Halo Infinite still coming to the Xbox One...you know how it is. As for what we've been playing, Derek has finally taken the Cyberpunk pill and has thoughts on the experience, Cheston went wrist deep into Dicey Dungeons and Setzer got into Jurassic World Evolution! Did you know that game is actually pretty good? I had no idea. A brave new world where licensed games aren't automatically trash.
