Podcasts about Metal Gear

While Lauryn is deep behind enemy lines (i.e. quite sick), Nicholas is busy organizing things back home in Mother Base, while trying not to bore all the new recruits with lectures on Maoism vs. Marxism-Leninism. In this rare solocast, he'll dive into Metal Gear's Cold War revisionism, discuss the effects that a more technologically constrained platform in the PSP has on gameplay mechanics, and wrap things up with a more philosophical interrogation of what "Outer Heaven" means as an ideology, even if Big Boss claims it isn't one.

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels.  It's been a hot minute, but we finally have the full crew back in the house once again, and per usual, we've got all sorts of gaming goodies to dig into, so let's get things rolling... Kevin & John get things started off with a quick recap on some of the games that they had a chance to experience, after taking a recent trip "up north" with their band, Boss Fight, to record some new tunes after 10+ years away from the studio! After that, Randall & John are diving into the tail end of Kojima's involvement with the Metal Gear series, as they've both been playing quite a bit of Ground Zeroes & The Phantom Pain, respectively. Finally, Randall closes us out with a little FPS action, after taking some time to revisit the first game in Microsoft's flagship franchise, courtesy of Halo: Campaign Evolved, which was released earlier this year.   Timestamps: Gaming "Up North" (w/ Kevin & John)  -  00:02:36 ↳  Outlast  -  00:02:51 ↳  Nidhogg  -  00:06:24 Metal Gear Solid V + Ground Zeroes  -  00:13:48 Halo: Campaign Evolved -  00:30:11   Thanks for taking the time to listen!  If you'd like to find us elsewhere on the Internet, you can find us at: 

The Fork In Your Ear Ep#222 "Ionic The Hedgehog" - Podcast Show Notes & Summary 9-26-26 Tim and Nate spend the first ten minutes fighting a Discord refresh, a hiss they blame on forced suppression, and a Windows accessibility crosshair that PowerToys cannot kill. Then the ring lands on Life: first day of fall floods Tim's plugged gutters, a USPS driver does an Austin Powers turn in his driveway because Washington will not let carriers reverse more than a foot, and Nate trades a Mustang insurance bill for a 2019 Hyundai Ioniq they immediately name Ionic the Hedgehog. Dream Nate gets a tattoo without telling Mrs. Foo. Amazon cargo e-bikes with fake pedals unload patio furniture in Burbank heat. Games dump after the last episode posted — Diablo 5, StarCraft Dominion, more No Man's Sky, Famitsu wishlists, Kojima's canceled Metal Gear-shaped "Fizzint," Bungie saying "we're listening" again, and Xbox shoving Halo under an Activision Call of Duty team while Halo Studios shrinks to "community support." Tim's HTML RTS playtest is up to 0.58 with dumber-AI rehab. Tech is iPhone Duo vs Z Fold 8 and a missing telephoto that keeps Tim off the fold. Entertainment is Lanterns going feral, Mayday being exactly Ryan Reynolds, Paramount-Warner getting waved through, Darkwing Duck coming back without Jim Cummings, Kara's Spaceballs DVD, and a Reddit stranger who archived Wizard's Rule episodes 0–40. Get forked.   Detailed Show Notes

Blizzard had some major announcements at Blizzcon 2026 including Diablo V coming in 2029, a new Starcraft game coming in 2030, Diablo getting an animated show with Netflix, Diablo coming to Diablo IV, and the announcement World of Warcraft Forever too. Are Sean and Marc excited about for anything announced? Is Marc going to hop into the new/old WOW? XBOX also made news this week by literally saving Hideo Kojima's upcoming PHYSINT which is believed to be his original take on the action espionage genre since he last worked on a Metal Gear game. Sony made a statement about why they canceled the game too. What does this say about where Sony's at? And should there be faith in XBOX at all with this? Considering we haven't seen much from OD which is Kojima's horror game that also is being funded by Microsoft. Plus, Grand Theft Auto VI increases Netflix signups, some game delays, SEGA doing more Netflix adaptations, Moss developer Polyarc closes down, the big IGN layoffs, and more!

PlayStation says it "parted ways" Kojima Productions and won't be publishing its Metal Gear spiritual successor PHYSINT. Journos say its because it went over budget, but gamers think Kojima's stance on physical media might've been the real reason. Apparently Sony is reigning in expense since they lost their shirts on Concord. Now he's with Xbox, which is also cutting costs... so the costs probably weren't the issue after all...

Hideo Kojima mantiene vivo Physint después de que PlayStation cancelara el proyecto y Xbox aceptara publicarloPor Félix Riaño @LocutorCoSony tenía un nuevo videojuego de Hideo Kojima para PlayStation. Se llama Physint y pretende recuperar el género de espionaje y acción que hizo famoso al creador de Metal Gear. Pero PlayStation decidió abandonar el proyecto.Kojima contó que recibió la noticia de forma inesperada en junio. Su estudio pasó los siguientes tres meses buscando otra empresa que financiara y publicara el juego.Ahora ya tiene una: Xbox.Microsoft va a publicar Physint. Además, Xbox ya trabaja con Kojima en otro videojuego llamado OD.Entonces, ¿por qué Sony dejó escapar un proyecto anunciado como una gran exclusiva de PlayStation?Pero Sony puede tener razones económicas para haber dicho adiósLa historia comenzó públicamente en 2024. Sony y Kojima anunciaron Physint como un nuevo proyecto para PlayStation. Kojima presentó la idea como un regreso al género de acción y espionaje después de décadas vinculado a Metal Gear.El proyecto también quería acercar videojuegos y cine.Pero en junio de 2026 ocurrió algo que el público no conoció hasta ahora. Según Kojima, PlayStation Studios comunicó a su empresa que iba a cancelar Physint.Kojima Productions decidió buscar otro socio.Xbox tenía una ventaja: ya conocía al estudio. Microsoft también va a publicar OD, el otro gran proyecto que Kojima tiene en desarrollo.Sony no ha explicado públicamente una razón concreta para abandonar Physint. Por eso, las explicaciones sobre dinero siguen siendo hipótesis.Analistas citados por IGN apuntan hacia los costos de estos grandes videojuegos y el rendimiento comercial de Death Stranding 2.Una estimación de Alinea Analytics sitúa sus ventas alrededor de 2,5 millones de copias. Sony y Kojima Productions no han publicado una cifra oficial equivalente.También existe otro problema: Physint parece estar lejos de terminarse. Kojima había calculado que su desarrollo todavía podía necesitar entre cinco y seis años.Sony tenía que decidir si quería mantener durante años una producción costosa cuyo rendimiento comercial todavía era incierto.Kojima decidió continuar.Su estudio buscó un nuevo socio durante aproximadamente tres meses y llegó a un acuerdo con Xbox. Microsoft va a publicar Physint y mantiene también su colaboración en OD.El acuerdo va más lejos. Xbox y Kojima Productions anunciaron que también van a explorar proyectos conjuntos para cine y televisión. No dieron detalles sobre esas producciones.El cambio también obliga a replantear partes de Physint. El proyecto estaba vinculado a recursos de Sony, incluido el motor gráfico Decima y la participación prevista de divisiones cinematográficas de la compañía.Ahora Microsoft y Kojima Productions tienen que encontrar su propio camino tecnológico y audiovisual.Hideo Kojima tiene una relación de décadas con PlayStation. Sony publicó Death Stranding y Death Stranding 2. Por eso este cambio tiene un peso especial para ambas marcas.Además, Xbox queda ahora vinculada a los dos próximos videojuegos anunciados de Kojima Productions: OD y Physint. The Verge señala que Physint no se espera antes de 2030.Sony decidió abandonar Physint. Kojima quiso conservar el proyecto y encontró otro socio. Xbox va a publicarlo.La razón exacta de la decisión de Sony sigue sin conocerse. Los costos, los largos tiempos de desarrollo y las ventas estimadas de Death Stranding 2 ofrecen posibles explicaciones, pero ninguna está confirmada por PlayStation.¿Sony evitó una inversión demasiado arriesgada o dejó escapar uno de sus proyectos más prestigiosos?Sigue Flash Diario en Spotify.Bibliografía:ForbesXbox WireIGNVarietyGamesIndustry.bizViceThe VergeConviértete en un supporter de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/flash-diario-de-el-siglo-21-es-hoy--5835407/support.

Night-time insects of late summer with some added texture and sporadic notes. Spend the night in the backyard! Whether you're studying, working, reading, sleeping, or unwinding after a long day, this immersive ambient soundscape provides the perfect background soundtrack. No talking, no interruptions—just late summer bug chatter. Ignore the World. _____It's our third installment of late summer sounds from my backyard. The main audio was recorded over the last weekend in August. As this episode is the third installment of “A Dying Summer's Suburban slumber,” I've gone rogue and added some texture and other elements. I've got a bunch of naked night bug episodes—as in no sound (this is a family show). To me the bugs are always more fun when the temperatures get lower and affect the frequency over the night. With the weather as warm as it has been, the bugs are naked and loud.Speaking of naked, I have been thinking of Lee Iacocca—look, I probably needed two more paragraphs to segue between nude insects and the former businessman (and Snoop Dogg commercial co-host—**** that could have been my segue).What would Lee Iacocca make of our current world? No, kidding WGAS—sing out loud “Lee Iacocca… made some cars” to the tune of “Jeremy” by Pearl Jam and now you have the same tic as me! “Jay-EE-AR Tolkien, wrote some books” also works.Gawd, I had to read Lee Iacocca in high school… I skimmed about as much as I could stand, and bull****ed my way through the report. Iacocca's book cover (swagger) was presented to empty Chick-O-Stick wrappers and the other gunk at the bottom of my book bag most of the time it was in my possession.And to continue the household brand name theme— I don't give a **** about transitioning properly! Let me tell you about one of the first internet fandom-fueled movements I remember.It was late 1996 and I was a college dip****. Sophomore year, Redman's Muddy Waters forever in my cassette player. Slothing around a snowy Vermont campus in baggy jeans, XXL Pure Playaz t-shirts. It was almost time to return home for Christmas—my dad cryptically mentions over the phone that he would be sending me back after the holiday with enough breakfast for the final semester.“What?”Dad explained he was in possession of a multitude of Unfrosted Strawberry Pop-Tarts value packs. And I would be inheriting most of them. “Awesome.”My father fluctuated between bemused and proud of my sister's advocacy—while lording over a stockpile of breakfast sweets. Apparently, my younger sister had been part of SOS, a group of online Sailor Moon fans not happy with Sailor Moon syndication time slots in the United States. The distributor planned to shutter production (adaptation and dubbing for American audiences) because the show wasn't performing well.And the SOS decided rather than boycott something to save their new favorite show, SOS would stage a procott on a day in December 1996 to display their purchasing power. They chose Unfrosted Strawberry Pop-Tarts and the campaign made waves. I don't know the ramifications of what SOS accomplished overall, but Sailor Moon is still in the zeitgeist and I got a lot of Pop-Tarts. PS: Homage cover art this week inspired by Iron Nest, a video game that gives you the keys to an early 1900s Metal Gear with Myst vibes and a fantastic liminal space to inhabit. Plus, their cover art rocks—not an ad, just fanboy ****. PPS: It is a game about a fictional war, and while war runs counter to the philosophy of this podcast... I haven't felt like I was back in Myst since Riven, and I stunk at Riven.

In comparing Death Stranding with its sequel, we come to a dichotomy of two gameplay experiences: a lonely one that matches what the games say about their protagonist and one in solidarity with other players that seems to confuse what the story has to say about what is happening in Kojima's world. We look at two conflicting narratives, then: the story of gameplay, where the game shines, and the story of the game's dialogue and cutscenes, where it... well... doesn't.

As it's episode 80, we thought we'd mark the occasion with a bunch of 80's games! The book club is a triple decker this month, with Alex Kidd in Miracle World on the Master System, Metal Gear on the MSX2 and the arcade version of Golden Axe!The first half of this huge episode gets a bit more serious mind you, as we discuss Sony's extremely controversial decision to cease all production of physical media from 2028 onwards, and the kind of ripple effects this will have on the industry going forward. Once again, we outline the importance of video game preservation and what an all-digital future means for still being able to play games even four or five years after their release.Luckily, normal service resumes in the second half, as we discover how Alex Kidd once completely scuppered Tibbs' chances for romance, Ollie quickly loses interest in Tellybugs, Twitch blatantly lies to use by pretending we have friends, and we laugh at another Sony gaff, as they introduce their newest mascot - an anxiety-ridden cartoon bear designed to take the Hello Kitty fanbase by storm.. Yes, really.Plus, Denshattack!!, Penny's Big Breakaway and gardener's corner asks can plants feel pain? (no).podemup.live | @PodEmUp | podemup@gmail.com

Now that our boy Kojima has been taken out of Konami and Metal Gear, we have to wonder whether you can take the Metal Gear out of the boy. In this episode, we consider what it means to start a newly independent studio that can't help but rehash all the good and the bad of the games that made you who you are. Is Kojima trapped in a kind Metal Gear samsara? Listen and find out!

Time to wrap up our discussions on the Death Stranding Novelizations (at least until October when the first volume of the DS2 novels releases). We honestly had such a great time with these books. Not only were they a great way to revisit and reconsider Death Stranding, but there was quite a lot specific to the novel worth discussing! Join us for that after Danny puts Austin's knowledge of the final lines of all of the Metal Gear games to the test... for reasons. Mostly because we just can't help ourselves from talking about AC!D 2 again.Episode 89: "I have SODOM"

This week's episode is the beginning of my Metal Gear replay and is all about the very first Metal Gear, originally released for the MSX2 before eventually making its way to the NES, Commodore 64, and PC.

Ich spreche mit Paul und Micha über die Geschichte des japanischen Publishers, dessen Spiele uns schon lange vor der gemeinsamen Arbeit in der Redaktion beschäftigt haben. Wir gehen mitsamt einiger Geheimtipps und reichlich Anekdoten chronologisch vor, starten in den 70ern, cruisen durch die 80er mit Contra und Gradius, die reichlich mit Spielen gefüllten 90er, natürlich geht es auch um Castlevania, Metal Gear, Silent Hill sowie PES, bevor es irgendwann Mitte der 2000er die ersten Krisen gibt.

Episode #426 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Bedroth shine a spotlight on the career of Nobuko Toda, a composer whose work has quietly shaped some of gaming's biggest franchises while rarely receiving the recognition afforded to many of her contemporaries. After studying at Berklee College of Music and joining Konami in the early 2000s, Toda became an integral part of the company's music team, contributing to everything from Metal Gear and Pro Evolution Soccer to lesser-known projects that showcased her incredible versatility. Throughout the episode, we explore the many sides of Toda's career, from her early Konami years through her later work. Along the way, we celebrate a composer whose music can be intimate, unsettling, heroic, reflective, and exhilarating, often within the span of a single soundtrack. From iconic franchises to hidden gems, this Composer Appreciation episode is dedicated to an artist whose contributions to video game music deserve far more attention than they've traditionally received. Email the show at bgmaniapodcast@gmail.com with requests for upcoming episodes, questions, feedback, comments, concerns, or any other thoughts you'd like to share! Special thanks to our Executive Producers: Jexak, Xancu, Jeff & Mike.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we continue our series on Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. We cover lots of topics, delving into stealth and AI systems, objectives and their communication, and other thoughts. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Another mission Issues covered: whether it was designed for a controller, graphic fidelity holding up, the fixed function shading pipeline, the crossover between audio and visual meters, what's going on with the light meter, ambient noise affecting how quickly you can move, adjusting eyesight, layering mechanics into a mini-game, sprinklers everywhere, hose extraction, trip lasers, using a body as a laser avoider, a key that isn't a key, interrogation mechanics, consequences for not interrogating, multiple paths to information, forgetting the vision modes, the marketing targets for particular consoles, dynamic mission objectives, motivating spaces through pattern language, having to mark up the world to tell you what's important, a digression into climbing anywhere, "what map?," not wasting space, clockwork levels, a globetrotting set of ops vs single-location games, Brett has a good point, contrasting flavors, just jumping in and having the briefings paper over travel, the attract mode, benefitting pacing. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: XBOX, Pulp Fiction (obliquely), PlayStation 3, Clint Hocking, NOLF 2, Max Payne, Metal Gear (series), Three Men and a Baby, Poltergeist, Eternal Darkness, Mission: Impossible (series), Entrapment, Sean Connery, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Dishonored, Prey, Hitman, Die Hard, Assassin's Creed, Crazy Climber, Cairn, Jusant, Hideo Kojima, Reacher (series), The Gray Man (series), The Hunt for Red October, Quiller (series), Shadowlord-72, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia. Next time: More TCSCCT! Errata: Apparently there were in fact multiple shader units on the original Xbox, and supported Pixel/Vertex 1.1 shaders. We regret the error. (Fixed function was still a thing, though, I'm just not remembering the details correctly.) Twitch: timlongojr and twinsunscorp YouTube Discord DevGameClub@gmail.com 

It seems like forever ago that we promised to cover the Ape Escape/MGS3 mini-games. Well we're finally making good on that promise by playing Snake VS Monkey and Mesal Gear Solid (we love a pun that makes no sense in English). Join us as we get up to some monkey business, talk movie references, eulogize the mini-game, and... get excited about the new Lego Batman game? All of that plus we talk about our favorite music from Metal Gear and Death Stranding.Episode 84: Monkey Quibi

Featuring: Michael "Boston" Hannon, Paul "Moonpir" Smith, and John "MusiM" Beauchamp Running Time: 40:25 Livestream: YouTube In this month's episode of TVGP's Game Club we hop on a codec call to chat about Metal Gear Solid!

Our next game is Chrono Trigger!

En este episodio de GeekastVG hablamos sobre la legendaria guerra de consolas de la sexta generación: Dreamcast, PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube y Xbox.Analizamos cómo la PS2 se convirtió en la consola más vendida de la historia con más de 155 millones de unidades, el fin de Sega como fabricante de hardware tras la caída de Dreamcast y cómo Microsoft revolucionó el gaming online con Xbox Live.También discutimos:

All good things must come to an end, and so too must Policenauts, an absolutely banger from the halcyon days of early Kojima. Time for Jonathan and Ed to put an end to the corruption on Beyond and get our girl Karen the bone marrow she needs. Then stick around as we throw our favorite Kojima characters into the worlds of mini-golf and Resident Evil, and once and for all put an answer to the question everyone's been asking: who is the Leon Kennedy of the Metal Gear world?Episode 83: The Come Corner

Hideo Kojima would trade it all for space. New legal filings reveal the Metal Gear creator's SpaceX ambitions. ​The industry's most famous auteur is looking at the stars. Legal documents from the Musk vs. Altman lawsuit reveal that Valve's Gabe Newell personally lobbied Elon Musk to get Hideo Kojima into a SpaceX facility. We explore Kojima's "Creative Gene" philosophy and why the man behind Death Stranding and Metal Gear is willing to sacrifice his career for a trip to orbit. Learn more about your ad choices.
