Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we begin a new series on 2010's Deadly Premonition. We first set the game in its time, and talk a bit about Japanese creators breaking out and establishing more auteurist inclinations, before turning to the first part of the game. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Up to/through the police station Issues covered: announcement of our October schedule, singing reviews, 2010 in games, horror games or things in the space, the place in the console cycle, Tim's understanding of the game going in, an indie-developer feel, amortizing investment to earn out, a shift in Japanese development, a surprising game coming out of nowhere, the blogosphere, American pop culture, a difficult creator to follow, Dark Cooper, the HD transition and switch to widescreen, making UI for HD, the victim in the tree and all its symbology, the discipline of the first scene, quick cutting in cinema, York and Zach talking about Tom and Jerry, holding on uncanny valley faces with the la la song, chasing photorealistic faces, stereotypes, the long table beautifully framed, the difficulty of sustaining a Lynchian show, an open world game with driving, a schedule of events and a populace with routines, the connections between characters, a "yes" game, a town being a character, the frustration of the schedule, an open world town vs an open world forest, something being best as a game, making choices and the feelings you have making them, walking simulators and systemic richness, Brett and Tim differ, portals being aligned for you, level and systems design not talking. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Erik Wolpaw, Portal/Portal 2, Defeating Games for Charity, Alan Wake (series), Resident Evil 5, God of War III, BioShock 2, Halo: Reach, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Fallout: New Vegas, Civ V, Dead Rising 2 (and series), Metal Gear: Peacewalker, Starcraft II, Amnesia: Dark Descent, Limbo, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Mass Effect 2, Red Dead Redemption, Darksiders, Heavy Rain, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, Battle Royale, Swery65, Hidetaka Suehiro, Access Games, David Lynch, Twin Peaks, Aksys Games, Stephen King, Control, Remedy Entertainment, Fatal Frame, Suda51, Grasshopper Manufacture, 2K Games, Ken Levine, The Elder Scrolls (series), Neo Geo SNK, Hideo Kojima, Konami, Hironobu Sakaguchi, Shenmue, Clover/Platinum, CapCom, Killer 7, Viewtiful Joe, Gathering of Developers, Ion Storm, Shinji Mikami, Ninja Gaiden Black, Giant Bomb, PlayStation, Interstate '76, Naomi Watts, Beyond Good and Evil, Crystal Dynamics, Tom and Jerry, Quentin Tarantino, Top Gun, Sleep with Me (obliquely), Gilmore Girls, The Last of Us, Ashley Johnson, Juno, Elliot Page, The Shining, Batman, Northern Exposure, Mark Frost, The X-Files, Ashton Herrmann, The Red Strings Club, LucasArts, The Walking Dead, Gone Home, Dear Esther, No Man's Sky, Mike, Quake, Spelunky, Calamity Nolan, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.  Next time: More of Deadly Premonition!

Lykkedes det Bloober Team at skabe deres mest ambitiøse spil til dato?Cronos: The New Dawn er et tredjepersons sci-fi survival horror-spil, udviklet og udgivet af Bloober Team. Et studie, som har stor erfaring med gysergenren og er især kendt for Layers of Fear, The Medium og ikke mindst remaket af Silent Hill 2, der udkom sidste år.Du spiller som The Traveler, der rejser tilbage i tiden til en postapokalyptisk udgave af 1980, hvor hele verden har været ofre for det, der kaldes "The Change" - en katastrofe, som har omdannet mennesker til monstrøse væsner. Her skal du høste sindet fra udvalgte personer, inden de selv bliver ofre for The Change.Cronos: The New Dawn påbegyndte sin udvikling i 2021, efter udgivelsen af The Medium, og er uden sammenligning Bloober Teams mest ambitiøse projekt til dato. Spillet er inspireret af film som 12 Monkeys, Annihilation og den tyske tv-serie Dark - samt computerspil som Dead Space og Alan Wake.Lykkes det Bloober Team at levere et produkt, der er lige så fantastisk som deres referencer?Alt det, og meget mere, skal vi finde ud af nu.I denne episode deltager Jacob Ege Hinchely, Lau Eskildsen, Nikolaj Mosegaard og Morten Urup.Tusind tak, fordi du lytter med.

TFIYE Ep #198 Spooky Circus & The RR (Grok 3 Summarization Transcript) The Fork In Your Ear Podcast Episode Summary – July 19, 2025   **Fork in Your Ear Podcast Summary – Episode Recorded August 9, 2025**   In this lively episode, hosts Tim K.A. Trotter and Nate Foo dive into a mix of personal anecdotes, pop culture, gaming, and tech developments, delivering their signature blend of humor and insight.   **Life Updates**: Tim shares his recent battle with a prolonged illness that left him bedridden for days, reflecting on the frustration of wanting to game or watch TV but being too sick to enjoy it. He also recounts a memorable date with his wife at a “spooky circus” by Cirque Italia, a raunchy, R-rated spectacle with sword-swallowing and trapeze acts. Another highlight was their visit to the iconic Double R Cafe in North Bend, Washington, famous from *Twin Peaks* and *Alan Wake*. Nate discusses surviving Southern California's triple-digit heat and a past AC failure, while both hosts lament aging and slower recovery times.   **Technology**: The conversation turns to AI advancements, focusing on Open AI's ChatGPT-5, which promises enhanced coding capabilities but has faced criticism for underperforming and ethical concerns like cloning itself. Tim praises Grok's new image and video generation features, showcasing its ability to create lifelike animations from single images, though it struggles with consistency in content moderation. They speculate on AI's future in entertainment, predicting a shift toward user-generated, high-quality content.   **Gaming**: The hosts discuss the passing of Bethesda's Julian LaFay, the “father of the Elder Scrolls series,” and Sony's move toward multi-platform game releases, with PlayStation titles like *Helldivers 2* coming to Xbox and Switch. They explore the evolving console wars, noting Nintendo's dominance in the portable market and the trend of companies like Capcom making games available across all platforms. Tim shares an encounter with a 65-year-old gamer playing a Switch 2, highlighting Nintendo's broad appeal.   **Entertainment**: Tim gushes about *Fantastic Four: First Steps*, praising its 1960s aesthetic and faithful adaptation of the comics, though he's puzzled by its lack of connection to the MCU's 616 universe. The upcoming *Spider-Man: Brand New Day* sparks excitement with its practical stunt work and return to a street-level story featuring villains like Mr. Negative and the Punisher. The *King of the Hill* revival on Hulu is a standout, with its time-jump approach and aged characters feeling fresh yet nostalgic, though some voice acting changes are jarring. *K-Pop Demon Hunters* on Netflix surprises both hosts with its infectious music and charm, becoming a family favorite. Other highlights include *Twisted Metal*'s absurd fun, *Dexter: Resurrection*'s gripping return, and the news of Gina Carano's settlement with Disney over her *Mandalorian* firing.   The episode wraps with Tim's enthusiasm for *Donkey Kong: Banana Bonanza*'s emotional ending and a nod to upcoming gaming plans, despite technical hiccups during recording. A heartfelt shoutout goes to friend Greg Smith, whose grandmother is in the hospital, urging listeners to send positive vibes.   **Runtime**: Just under 3 hours.   **Sign-off**: “Get forked!”   Join The Fork Family On Discord: https://discord.gg/CXrFKxR8uA Find all our stuff at Remember to give us a review on iTunes or wherever you downloaded this podcast from.

That said, these folks are no strangers to making games and have previously brought you the likes of Max Payne, Alan Wake, and (surprise!) Control. Set six years after the events of that single-player title, the developers have allegedly crafted this game to stand on its own.

De twee gaan het hebben over een aantal onderwerpen. Komt er bijvoorbeeld nu wel of niet een nieuwe, echte, old school Xbox console? En is de gelekte prijs van de ROG Xbox Ally (X) te hoog of niet? Ook wordt er gekeken naar het falen van Final Fantasy XVI op de Xbox en het succes daarentegen van de PC-port van Stellar Blade.

Dan presenteren we steevast vol trots EvdWL, onze uitgebreide vodcast over al het game gerelateerde nieuws van de week. In GK Daily praten we je in 20 minuten bij over wat er zich allemaal afspeelt in de wereld van videogames. Het hoofdonderwerp betreft MindsEye. De game van mede GTA-bedenker Lesly Benzies. Het spel werd met veel tamtam aangekondigd, maar lijkt ongenadig hard te gaan floppen. Naar verluidt zou er een half miljard dollar in deze productie gestopt zijn. Dat lijkt ons veel te veel.

Most Excellent 80s Movies Podcast

David Lynch's Dark Suburban MasterpieceJoin hosts Krissy Lenz and Nathan Blackwell with special guests Andy Nelson and Pete Wright as they dive into David Lynch's controversial classic Blue Velvet (1986), a film that exposed the dark underbelly beneath idyllic small-town America.When college student Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan) discovers a severed ear in a field, he's drawn into a twisted mystery involving nightclub singer Dorothy Vallens (Isabella Rossellini) and the terrifying Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper). The hosts explore how Lynch creates a jarring contrast between 1950s suburban aesthetics and the disturbing criminal world that exists beneath the surface.The panel discusses how Blue Velvet serves as Lynch's most accessible work while still containing his signature surrealism. Unlike his later films that abandon traditional narrative structure, Blue Velvet follows a relatively straightforward detective story, making it an excellent entry point for viewers new to Lynch's filmography. The film's lasting impact can be seen in later works like Twin Peaks, which further developed many of the themes and visual styles first explored here.Dennis Hopper's unhinged performance as Frank Booth remains one of cinema's most memorable villains, with the hosts noting how Hopper reportedly told Lynch, "I am Frank Booth," when accepting the role that many actors had turned down due to its disturbing nature.Topics Discussed:The film's juxtaposition of 1950s idealism with 1980s darknessLynch's signature visual style and sound design techniquesThe voyeuristic themes and Jeffrey's seduction by darknessIsabella Rossellini's haunting performance as Dorothy VallensHow Blue Velvet compares to Lynch's other worksThe famous "Pabst Blue Ribbon" sceneLynch's influence on subsequent filmmakers and mediaEach host's rating of the film (on a scale of Pabst Blue Ribbons)The episode concludes with deep-cut recommendations including The Reflecting Skin (1990), John Cheever's short story "The Swimmer," and the video games Alan Wake and Control - all works that share thematic or stylistic elements with Lynch's universe.Whether you're a Lynch devotee or curious newcomer, this episode offers fascinating insights into a film that continues to disturb and captivate audiences over three decades after its release. --We couldn't do this without your support of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Podcast!

In 1996, the world of video gaming was forever changed by the release of Capcom's “survival horror” masterwork “Resident Evil” on the Sony PlayStation. In fact, the term “survival horror”, now a common-place name for a subgenre of horror gaming, was originated by “Resident Evil”.Survival horror itself can be defined as a genre of video games with a focus on surviving in a threatening, often supernatural or disturbing environment, with an emphasis on a more vulnerable central character, tension, limited resources and combat as a last resort.Sound like a vast number of great horror games that have come since the original “Resident Evil”?Whether it's the steeped in atmospheric dread of the “Silent Hill” franchise, the cosmic Lovecraftian terror of the “Dead Space” games, the nerve-frying corridors of the “Amnesia” series or the Stephen King-esque small town horror of “Alan Wake” and its sequel, the influence of “Resident Evil” has played a pivotal role in forming horror gaming. In this episode I am joined by the stars of the most recent “Resident Evil” games. They have taken the three most iconic characters of the franchise and not only made them their own, but also brought real gravity and psychological complexity that has helped redefine the series and what we thought we could expect from it.Welcome Nicole Tompkins who plays Jill Valentine in the “Resident Evil 3” reimaging and the animated film “Resident Evil: Death Island” as well as Daniela Dimitrescu and Elena in “Resident Evil Village”, Jeff Schine who plays Carlos in the “Resident Evil 3” reimagining and Chris Redfield in “Resident Evil Village” and Nick Apostolides who plays Leon Kennedy in the reimagining's of “Resident Evil 2” and “Resident Evil 4” as well as the TV mini-series “Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness”.We discuss their approaches to adapting these legacy characters, the indelible imprint of the franchise, how it's not as different from film acting as some may think, as well as their most requested line readings. Let's explore the dangers of Raccoon City and beyond, survive a world of endless zombies and undead Doberman's, expose shadowy secret evil organizations and visit a village of crazed occultist with Nicole Tompkins, Jeff Schine and Nick Apostolides! ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

That's right, we're tackling the Sonic RPG Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood and finally we get stylus based controls and dialogue trees in our sonic games! Plus this game has all sorts of deep cuts: there's Vector from Knuckles Chaotix on the 32X! Big the Cat! Cream! Rouge the Bat! Who will be next? Fang the Sniper? Espio the Chameleon? The sky's the limit! Also: Maybe if GameStop focused less on woke and more on wake, Alan Wake that is. She seems like a SNES girlie. I don't like a tude dude! Vanessa's good nice water cooler chat! 8 year olds can fly planes, but not very well. This Week: Finish Chapters 1 & 2 of Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood! Next Week: Finish Chapters 3 & 4!
