We take a thorough look at the nature of soft power, how it can be used, and whether or not a country truly needs it to explore China's soft power deficit and what can be done to fix it. While China does have SOME soft power, arguably its lack of the charm of its neighbours and rivals means its culture and ideology is often met with suspicion or outright rejection. This can lead to difficulties when interacting on the global stage, for example when it comes to pandemic management, border relations, or the promotion of language and culture. Do small wins like the success of the video game Black myth: Wukong present a way out for China's cultural tzars? Or is the hand of the state just too heavy to allow the organic spread of a rich cultural heritage that has the potential to bring China into a new era of prestige and attractiveness?Chapters (00:00) Introduction - South Korea's soft power boom(04:50) What is soft power?(17:22) How soft power can be used and the failure of Confucius Institutes(26:52) Does China need or want soft power?(41:25) Consequences of China's lack of soft power(47:50) Missed soft power opportunities(52:45) Black Myth: Wukong and a potential new era of Chinese soft powerSupport the showSign up for Buzzsprout to launch your podcasting journey: https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=162442Subscribe to the Sinobabble Newsletter: https://sinobabble.substack.com/Support Sinobabble on Buy me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Sinobabblepod

Have you ever been so excited for a game to come out that you just couldn't stop talking about it? Have you ever played a game so good that you needed to tell everyone how great it was? Well, for Beat of the Month crew member Melbro, this happens a couple times a week. And this episode is to celebrate these games - Hype Train Games! And boy oh boy are there a lot of games to cover across all sorts of different genres.Let's see...we've got Sifu, Death's Door, Elden Ring, Split Fiction, Street Fighter 6, Inscryption, Spider Man, Blue Prince, Little Nightmares, Neon White, Balatro, Black Myth Wukong, and about a dozen more games. There's something for everyone! However, not everyone agrees with Melbro's enthusiasm for these games, so it leads to some lively conversation. So grab your ticket for this speeding locomotive and join us - for Hype Train Games!
Its that magical time of year, when all the games are announced, and the big 3 come together! I'm talking about, wait, no, E3 is gone, but its spirit lives on, in this disjointed days of virtual press conferences. Xbox had their Games Showcase and didn't show any of the tentpoles, Summer Games Fest knocked it out of the park with Resident Evil 9, and IGN Live tried to fill in some gaps. Plus, The Phoenician Scheme, Predator Killer of Killers, and Ballerina from the World of John Wick all get reviewed.
Vil Xbox' håndholdte konsol kunne hamle op med Switch 2? Xbox har annonceret deres første håndholdte konsol, ROG Xbox Ally, som de laver i samarbejde med Asus. Men er den attraktiv nok til at konkurrere med Nintendo Switch 2, en maskine, som allerede nu slår alle salgsrekorder? Det snakker vi om senere i episoden – en episode, hvor vi også reagerer på Xbox Summer Showcase og kigger på PlayStations seneste regnskab, som angiveligt lover flere fyringer og aflysninger af spil.I denne episode diskuterer vi blandt andet:- Reaktioner på Xbox Summer Showcase- Debat om håndholdt Xbox- The Outer Worlds 2 vil koste 80 $- Reaktioner på Summer Game Fest- Danske Out of Words ser vanvittigt ud!- Black Myth: Wukong udkommer til Xbox- Forgotlings er udskudt til starten af efteråret- Discounty udkommer til august- Nintendo Switch 2 slår historiske salgstal- Nyt Splatoon-spin-off-spil annonceret- The Legend of Zelda-filmen udskudt- PlayStations regnskab tyder på flere aflysninger af spilOg meget, meget mere!I denne episode deltager Rasmus Lund-Hansen, Nicolaj Jyde, Michael Emcken, Nikolai Fog og Morten Urup.Tusind tak, fordi du lytter med!

Currently Playing returns with a first ever live in person recording! Daniel talks to his friend Marcy (musician, teacher, world traveler) about the game Black Myth: Wukong which is based on the Chinese novel Journey to the West. We take a deep dive into the origins of the company behind the game, Game Science, and their connection to the story and Chinese culture before discussing some of the finer details of the gameplay and the challenging Soulslike subgenre. Since Marcy was able to record in person he joined Daniel for playing Streets of Rage 4 which made the classic "couch co-op" game feel more alive, and then Marcy challenged Daniel to play Transistor. We end the show a little unconventionally as well by playing some of Marcy's unreleased music as background and then the also unreleased single Monsters.0:00:00 - Welcome to the Show, Marcy!0:07:44 - What Are You Playing?

Spring is here! Last year around this time we did an episode on Nature Games to celebrate the warmer weather, and this time around we are doing an episode on Bug Games! For some games with bugs as the main focus we've taken a look at PS5 launch title Bugsnax and Wii game Deadly Creatures. We also continue Spiral's journey into Naughty Dog games with his take on The Last of Us 2, and Melbro has the latest hype game in his backlog - Black Myth: Wukong. Things get rounded out as usual with some Bug Game trivia. So grab your bug net and your bug spray and join us for this episode on Bug Games!
What happens when Ridge Racer makes a nostalgic return, and Forza finds itself on the unexpected shores of PS5? Welcome to episode 118 of the Game Jojo podcast, where gaming surprises abound, and technical hiccups are part of the journey. We tackle the latest news from Nvidia, dive into the Spider-Man 2 buzz, and grapple with the unfortunate layoffs at EA, speculating on the causes and consequences. Sony's controversial move to take down a fan-made 60 FPS patch for Bloodborne sparks speculation on future plans, while Xbox's evolving strategy on exclusivity shakes up the gaming landscape.Join us as we humorously navigate rumors surrounding the Nintendo Switch 2, ponder the size of game cases, and debate the sacred 60 FPS standard for modern gaming. From upgrading hardware from a 1060 Ti to a 4070 GPU, to examining "Multiversus" and its identity crisis, our conversation is as diverse as it is engaging. We dissect the impact of microtransactions, compare Intel and AMD processors, and offer insights into the nuanced decisions.From the revival of Skies of Arcadia to the sales success of Black Myth: Wukong, there's plenty to celebrate and speculate upon. We touch on the VR scene, the latest MetaQuest headset rumors, and Xbox's cross-platform future.

We did it. We made it through Black Myth: Wukong. This game had its ups and downs in the difficulty of its bosses (and there are plenty). But if you like Soulslike games and a challenge, you'll enjoy it.

In 2022, approximately 8,500 people lost their jobs in the games industry. In 2023, that number rose to 10,500, and just last year it ballooned to an unfathomable 14,600. Will it be worse this year? That's currently unknowable, but one thing's certain: Industry playing and spending habits are radically changing, and the newest victim of the environment (and loads of really bad choices along the way) is Warner Bros. Games, which shut down three studios (including the vaunted team Monolith Productions, cancelling its Wonder Woman project in the process) while declaring it's all-in on very specific IP, but nothing more. Is WB Games' meltdown a cautionary tale? Or is it a simple example of more-of-the-same? With seven out of 10 PlayStation 5 players playing at least one of the 10 most popular games on the platform -- and with an astonishing 40% of playtime on PS4 and PS5 spent with those 10 games, and those 10 games alone -- we are nearing an inflection point. There are too many people making too many games alongside too little interest in much of what's being released, and frankly, the bloodletting is nowhere near finished. We discuss. Plus: PSVR2 gets a major price cut, THPS 3+4 Remastered leaks via ratings, Black Myth: Wukong sells huge on PlayStation 5, Sony-published Midnight Murder Club gets a release date, and more. Then: Inquiries from our beloved listeners. How hyped are we for Death Stranding 2? What do we make of the rumors of a God of War-related announcement slated for March? Could we define the term "Eurojank"? Will Chris ever get another haircut again in his entire life?

We're back! 2024 is so last year; it's now time for us to dwell here in 2025... and perhaps even beyond. The holiday season was pretty quiet news-wise, but there were fairly substantial exceptions in the form of two lengthy interviews published by legendary Japanese games publication Famitsu, conducted with both of PlayStation's recently-installed co-CEOs. On the one hand, Hermen Hulst was peppered with questions about Helldivers 2 and Concord, the future of Sony's single-player initiatives, and whether PlayStation fans can expect more games to travel off-platform. On the other hand, Hideaki Nishino was prodded for answers on topics like the future of cloud gaming, the success of PS5 in the wake of PS4, and even when we might see a hypothetical PlayStation 6. Obviously, we're left with much to discuss. Other news of note includes another delay for Assassin's Creed: Shadows, early rumblings of a potential new emulation solution for PS3, compelling evidence of a forthcoming remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, a turned-down pitch for Dead Space 4, and much more. Then: Listener inquiries! Why were so many people convinced Black Myth: Wukong was a PS5 console-exclusive title? Is it necessary for a True Yakuza Fan to play all titles in the series? 10 years on, how has Colin enjoyed his decade of media independence?

After two weeks of R&R, the Duke boys are back! Plenty happened while we were away. Everything from Oblivion Remake leaking (again) to a supposed Xbox console dropping in 2026 circulated, so we have much to pick up at the start of the new year. For starters, a Developer Direct looms and the lineup could be stacked if it's to include The Outer Worlds 2, Fable, DOOM: The Dark Ages, and South Of Midnight as expected. The question on the tip of everyone's tongue is simply this: "What is the mystery fifth game appearance?" In year one, it was Hi Fi Rush. Year two gave it to a rare third party appearance in Square Enix for Visions Of Mana. The Duke debate what could show up! We also dive into Xbox's sudden competition with Valve as they've lept headfirst into challenging Windows with their own OS. How has this accelerated Microsoft's plans without a handheld ready? Plus, grim estimates of Xbox's current console sales and, even worse, Xbox's sales hits to Game Pass titles!

The world of gaming sure didn't slow down for turkey week as the Dukes has plenty to dive into! It begins with the handheld wars. Steam, ASUS, Logitech, and many others have thrown their hat into the ring, but most await what Xbox and PlayStation will do. Recently, it was confirmed that an Xbox handheld is in development, but now Bloomberg has suggested that PlayStation is working on their own too. With the rise of PS Plus and streaming, PlayStation is slimming down the gap between them and Xbox on many features. What will Xbox need to do beyond timing its release well to compete with a company as synonymous with handhelds as Nintendo? More importantly, will Xbox and PlayStation find any success in a market that has seen very little handhelds sold in the scheme of things. We're far removed from the days of the Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance, and PlayStation Portable. So, what gives? The Dukes sink their teeth into this juicy rumor. Naturally, we discuss the evolving situation including Avowed and its art director. Has the situation gone too far and what action can be taken on both sides to mitigate this disaster? The talk is complicated and so we peel it back layer-by-layer as we get into the thick of another fantasy game caught in chaos. Plus, more on Xbox's new Game Studios lead, Call Of Duty's 4 year development cycle, and much more! Please keep in mind that our timestamps are approximate, and will often be slightly off due to dynamic ad placement. 0:00:00 - Intro 0:25:01 - Avowed director Carrie Patel spoke to Gamesradar on Obsidian's next game versus the competition 0:34:59 - 4 year dev cycles for Call Of Duty are the new norm? 0:42:37 - S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 has already sold 1 million copies 0:48:27 - Square Enix wants Final Fantasy VII Remake on Xbox 0:57:51 - Craig Duncan is officially the new head of Xbox Game Studios 1:00:09 - Black Myth Wukong getting “surprises” later in the year 1:02:03 - The Witcher 4 has entered full production, Cyberpunk 2077 has sold 30 million copies, and a new animated Cyberpunk show is on the way 1:08:09 - Casey Hudson's studio, Humanoid Origin, has shut down 1:23:03 - Baldur's Gate 3 profits insight 1:28:48 - Balatro made a looooot of money 1:32:29 - Top 20 best selling games for October in US 1:37:31 - What We're Playing 2:09:08 - PlayStation's handheld has leaked 2:35:24 - Avowed drama recap 3:05:18 - Game Pass Pick Of The Week Learn more about your ad choices.

The industry was recently set alight by a pair of articles from newswire Reuters indicating that Sony is interested in buying Japanese media conglomerate Kadokawa Corporation, and indeed, Kadokawa itself has since confirmed the reporting. Such a move has massive implications for Sony's increasing dominance in the anime and manga spaces, and it's likely this attempt at M&A is squarely focused on that first and foremost. But acquiring Kadokawa could be a huge boon for the PlayStation brand, too, considering it owns the likes of Spike Chunsoft and Acquire, and perhaps most importantly a controlling share in FromSoftware, too, the prolific studio behind Elden Ring, Bloodborne, Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, Armored Core, Sekiro, King's Field, and more. Should Sony nab Kadokawa, does that mean FromSoft would join PlayStation Studios as a proper first party team? Could further emphasizing Sony's Japanese identity provide a valuable path forward for PlayStation? Other news this week includes fresh PlayStation 6-related rumors, word out of Square Enix concerning Final Fantasy VII Remake: Part III and a potential 2D-HD version of Final Fantasy VI, PlayStation Portal's awesome upgrade to allow cloud gaming without PS5, and more. Per usual, we wrap things up with inquiries from our beloved audience. What are our thoughts on this year's iteration of Geoff Keighley's Game Awards? Which difficulty settings are most appealing to us in the titles we play? How does Colin deal with any negative feedback surrounding the games he writes? In one listener's quest to invite another to be his Best Man, could it be that their shared romance is the real story?
