The Final Fantasy series means many things to many people. It means moogles, music, and mages. It is a story of destroying gods and a tale of heartbreak. It means cross-dressing, and it means unique combat. In our episode today, we have a discussion on where the franchise is at and where it might go next. We also cover the Pokemon Teraleak and all the other big gaming news for the month!

Garlic, farts, gold, and adventuring. Today, the Raw Dogs are celebrating Wario. From humble beginnings, Wario was bullied on the playground by the villainous Mario. He rose up and became a lord of his castle, saved many innocents from evil clowns, and even started his own video game company. He may love treasure, but we think he might be the greatest treasure of all! BIG THANKS to David Wise for our brand new theme song!

The OG Xbox was a heavyweight of gaming when it launched in 2001.  Sure, it was a giant but packing in a hard drive, ethernet port, and 3000 hours of Halo took a whole lot of power.  Facing huge amount of opposition from Nintendo and Sony, Microsoft managed the impossible and placed a giant green X on the face of gaming. Halo, Fable, Project Gotham, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and the perfect physics of Dead or Alive 3.  There was a whole to love about the Xbox so join as we discuss the legendary tale of monetary loss that changed the face of gaming forever!

Today, we have a special presentation of PopCornDogs recorded at SGDQ last year with Luigi's Apartment and Justin Meli.  Obsessed with bringing terrorist Castor Troy (Nicolas Cage) to justice, FBI agent Sean Archer (John Travolta) tracks down Troy, who has boarded a plane in Los Angeles. After the plane crashes and Troy is severely injured, possibly dead, Archer undergoes surgery to remove his face and replace it with Troy's. As Archer tries to use his disguise to elicit information about a bomb from Troy's brother, Troy awakes from a coma and forces the doctor who performed the surgery to give him Archer's face.

The whispers are back baby! FF7 Rebirth is the followup to the beloved FF Remake which preceded the disappointing FF7 Ever Crisis, the sequel to the much maligned FF7: Dirge of Cerberus which continued building on the world established by the pretty awesome FF7: Crisis Core that chronologically came before FF7: Before Crisis on mobile phones that was released after FF7 Advent Children which brought the team back together from the original FF7 for the PS1. This series has become an unwieldy beast with MCU levels of world building, sometimes to its detriment. But my brothers and sisters in Jenova, this game fucks. Most players clock in around 100 hours of game time with a plethora of side content, great character interactions, and the possibly the greatest Action RPG battle system yet devised. We are hot on this game and we are ready to discuss the lore from top to bottom. Kupu Kupo. Kupo.

A young man returns to his isolated hometown on Crockett Island, hoping to rebuild his life after serving four years in prison for killing someone in a drunk-driving incident. He arrives at the same time as a mysterious, charismatic young priest who begins to revitalise the town's flagging faith.  However, the community's divisions are soon exacerbated by the priest's deeds while mysterious events befall the small town. Neil Diamond, vampires, catholicism.  Shoot it into my veins.

So you found a bag of powder on the ground. This moment happens at every music festival but not every bag of powder is drugs, some of it is actually the spirit ashes of the Misbegotten.

Either way, they are a part of our game and we are going to break down why you shouldn't snort them!

There's nothing more disappointing then putting a vast amount of energy into a game and having the ending fall absolutely flat.

Before our topic, we cover the biggest gaming news for the past month, what we've been playing, and Madame Web makes a guest appearance. We can't get rid of her.

Wow! 100 episodes of Raw Dogs talking nonsense and shenanigans on video games! For this monumental event, we decided to revisit the Pokemon franchise which was our very first episode, so we can see just how much we haven't grown (or evolved to put it in the parlance of our times).

The Coen Brothers deliver a masterful tense thriller about fate, chance, and milk bottles that are still sweatin.  I knowed it a good movie when I saw it, but besides that, I can't give out no information.   While out hunting, Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) finds the grisly aftermath of a drug deal. Though he knows better, he cannot resist the cash left behind and takes it with him. The hunter becomes the hunted when a merciless killer named Chigurh (Javier Bardem) picks up his trail. Also looking for Moss is Sheriff Bell (Tommy Lee Jones), an aging lawman who reflects on a changing world and a dark secret of his own, as he tries to find and protect Moss.

In this episode, we talk Dragon's Dogma and the baffling amount of surprise people still get on micro-transactions. We talk Zelda movies, and patches and updates for games that matter and some that don't. Our main topic this episode is Canceled Video Games. Turns out studios make mistakes some times and many games that should get released never do. Thankfully though, some of these turkeys never saw the light of day! 2 upcoming projects shouted out on this episode: The Storied Sword - https://gauauu.itch.io/the-storied-sword The Red Dragon Inn - https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/slugfestgames/adventure-is-nigh-the-card-game?ref=discovery Contact Us: Twitter: @HOTDogcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hairofthedogcast Instagram: hairofthedogcast To see how you can support us and access a bunch of cool, exclusive perks, visit our Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/hairofthedogcast We appreciate your support!

Somehow, Saw Gerrera has returned.  Believe it or not, EA made some great Star Wars games.  The Star Wars Jedi series is beloved and for good reason.  As far as Soulslike Metroidvanias set in the Star Wars Universe, this really is the pinnacle.  Cool characters, great combat, and fun worlds to explore. Join the Raw Dogs as we reminisce on our experiences with this two games.  Many highs and some lows, but never enough Greez.  We apologize for our Saw Gerrera impressions.

Elden Ring is not an easy game. No matter your skill level, there is no way you are beating this game in under 15 hours, unless you're a speedrunner. They can beat this game in under 5 minutes.   Speedrunning might seem like some forbidden sort of black magic, and it is. You want a flying horse, it's yours. If you want to make a weapon into a machine gun, go ahead and do it. And WTF is a Phase 2?   The Elden Dogs are joined by world record holder, Catalystz, to discuss the world of Elden Ring speedrunning. Hold on tight, because where we are going, we don't need roads!   Catalystz: https://www.twitch.tv/catalystz https://www.youtube.com/@catalystz   Mandatory Viewing: How Speedrunners Mastered Elden Ring (Any% Glitchless) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWpas8jtOFM&t=85s Explaining the Perfect Elden Ring Speedrun (TAS) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VIAN3FECq8&t=1s Elden Ring All Remembrances Speedrun World Record - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBPhMjOOLkU&t=2211s   Contact Us: Twitter: @HOTDogcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hairofthedogcast Instagram: hairofthedogcast To see how you can support us and access a bunch of cool, exclusive perks, visit our Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/hairofthedogcast We appreciate your support!

To hell with new games! We want old ones! In an age of mass layoffs and the money holders afraid to take risks, remakes are a fact of life. As creatures of nostalgia and easy comfort, of course we want to see Barret cussing at people. It makes us happy! The Dogcast this month will be discussing video games that deserve remakes, some lost, some forgotten, and some that we just really want to play again. Before our topic, we discuss the biggest news in gaming for the previous month and discuss what we have been playing, which is Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth.
