This episode of the Sockscast starts with the somber news of Satoru Iwata's passing, while at the same time looking forward to the impact he left on the industry as a whole. We're joined by Michellybells this episode, as she makes her Sockscast debut, filling us in on King's Field, a weirdly obscure Japanese-only Famicom title, and a host of other topics. Rhete's running blind through a forest and lamenting the impending doom of Flash, and Polly is a good speller! All that and a NEW Sockscast correspondent!

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross talk about the first stretch of King's Field IV: The Ancient City. Continuing our Origins Suite, we now turn our attention to King's Field, which is the other big fantasy series that From Software is known for. We opted for King's Field IV because it's a standalone story, and also because it's the most accessible. Take a listen to hear more, as we talk about everything up through the first encounter with some Guardians.

De stellingen van deze week hebben temaken met het ontbreken van de Playstation Eye als standaard accessoire bij aankoop van de Playstation 4 console zelf, en de recente aankondigingen van spinoffs in de Dues Ex en Halo franchises op mobiele platforms. 00:36:54 - De 'Hidden Gem' in je verzameling Iedereen heeft wel een game in zijn of haar verzameling die niet zo bekend of zelfs ondergewaardeerd is, maar waar veel speciale waarde aan gehecht wordt. Toch? De Button Bashers in ieder geval wel; Steef trapt af met 3D Dot Game Heroes (37:57), Niels houdt zijn Nintendo DS schuin met Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (44:31), en Michael gaat naar de oorsprong van de gerenommeerde Souls games met King's Field (49:41). 00:58:11 - Afsluiting

Back in 2009 my world was invaded by a black phantom. This black phantom was called Demon's Souls. A spiritual successor to King's Field which stood apart from all other games of it's kind. In part due to it's design, but mostly due to it's difficulty. Most people after playing this game seem to recall the old days of gaming; when you knew whatever you played was going to kick the crap out of you across the street. I even reviewed Demon's Souls back then. I gave it a Buttered Toast which is basically a 2/3. Since then I've returned to playing it and as I stated in the musicast I'm 4 play-throughs in. Anyway Please enjoy this weeks Musicast. Oh! Also visit preparetodie.com to pre-order Dark Souls which comes out October 4th.

If you've payed even a scant amount of attention around here you've probably picked up on the general enthusiasm and fervor some of us have for From Software's "Soul" series: Demon's Souls and Dark Souls. We once did an experimental episode of the podcast which featured some footage of co-op in Demon's Souls, way back in episode 22. Of course Dark Souls has been released since we did that, so in this episode we broaden the topic to include that game as well as its predecessor series: King's Field. This episode is about the appeal of these games, and what makes their experiences meaningful. We talk about the effectiveness of their atmosphere, the density of their combat, and the exhilarating ridiculousness of their PvP. Furthermore, someone will die at the end of this episode!
