Hollow Knight: Silksong is nu te spelen en voor miljoenen liefhebbers van de originele game Hollow Knight moet dat nog steeds moeilijk te bevatten zijn. Na hun eerste uitgebreide speelsessies bespreekt Joe van Burik met Niels Kooloos en Metroidvania-kenner Vincent Leeuw de indruk die deze game levert - en dat is niet unaniem positief - in deze Mini-Game-aflevering van All in the Game. Hollow Knight: Silksong is nu te spelen op Windows pc, Xbox One S en X, Xbox Series S en X, PlayStation 4 en 5 en Nintendo Switch 1 en 2. Over All in the GameAll in the Game is de podcast over games voor iedereen. Wanneer er iets speelt in de wereld van games, hoor je dat hier: spannende ontwikkelingen, boeiende onderzoeken en natuurlijk de nieuwste releases om te spelen op je PlayStation, Xbox, pc of welk platform dan ook. Onder leiding van BNR's techredacteur Joe van Burik hoor je gesprekken met andere gamekenners, zoals beursnerd Jochem Visser, techredacteurs Niels Kooloos en Daniël Mol én popcultuurkenners Donner Bakker en Sam van Zuilen. Ook hoogleraar computerwetenschappen Felienne Hermans en universitair docent Laura van der Lubbe schuiven geregeld aan, en je hoort bijdragen van audioproducers André Dortmont en Wesley Schouwenaars. Elke week hoor je minimaal één aflevering van All in the Game. Of juist meerdere, wanneer er veel speelt in de wereld van games. Soms met impressies en analyses over actuele ontwikkelingen en nieuwe games. Andere keren kun je luisteren naar interviews met makers van bijzondere games, van Grand Theft Auto (GTA) tot Baldur's Gate 3 - zowel Nederlandse als internationale ontwikkelaars. Of we praten met e-sport-atleten, onderzoekers en andere experts in de wereld van videogames, in onze rubriek Main Game. En regelmatig laten we iemand van BNR Nieuwsradio aanschuiven om te vertelen over diens favoriete game van vroeger in de Retro-rubriek. In deze podcast kijken we verder dan alleen wat een game leuk maakt: we bespreken juist ook in de culturele, maatschappelijke, economische en technologische impact ervan. Jaarlijks gaat er immers zo'n 200 miljard euro om in de wereldwijde game-industrie, dat is al (vele jaren zelfs) daadwerkelijk meer dan de muziek- en filmindustrie bij elkaar opgeteld Zo hoor je bij All in the Game niet alleen wat je moet spelen - en op welk nieuwe (game)platform - maar kun je daar nog bewuster mee bezig zijn, over praten en natuurlijk van genieten. Of het nou gaat om Super Mario of Sonic the Hedgehog, Fortnite of Roblox, voetbalgames van EA Sports FC of de FIFA, Call of Duty of Battlefield, League of Legends of Dota,of goude oude titels zoals Tetris, Rollercoaster Tycoon, The Sims of zelfs Snake. En we hebben ook aandacht voor liefhebberijen die dicht op games zitten, zoals Dungeons & Dragons, Lego en de films, series en strips rond reeksen zoals Star Wars en Marvel. Het komt allemaal aan bod in All in the Game. All in the Game werd als podcast al in 2022 opgenomen in het archief van Het Nederlands instituut voor Beeld & Geluid in Hilversum - als eerste podcast van BNR Nieuwsradio en één van de eerste gamepodcasts van allemaal. Gezamenlijk met talloze Nederlandse televisieprogramma’s, radioshows, games, websites, webvideo’s en podcast vormt dit materiaal de Nederlandse mediageschiedenis. Over Joe van BurikJoe van Burik is presentator, podcastmaker en techredacteur bij BNR Nieuwsradio. Je hoort hem bijna dagelijks in de Tech Update met het laatste nieuws over digitale technologie, en gaat daar in BNR Digitaal (samen met Ben van der Burg) elke woensdag dieper op in met gasten uit de techwereld. Daarnaast maakt hij onder meer de podcast All in the Game, voor iedereen die meer wil horen over videogames.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Featuring: Ammosart, Ashgar, Belghast, Kodra, Tamrielo, and Thalen   Hey Folks! This week, we are down a Grace, and Bel botches the intro… but we keep moving forward. We start off the show with a brief discussion about Silksong effectively breaking every digital game distribution platform when it released this week. Kodra and Tam talk about puzzler Is This Seat Taken, and Bel reprises the discussion about Path of Exile II Third Edict and how it is actually rather good if you are playing a well-balanced class.  From there, Tam talks about Aero GPX and Sword of the Sea and how they give F-Zero and SSX Tricky vibes. Bel talks about playing Destiny Rising and how it is quite possibly a better Destiny game than anything we have gotten in many years.  We discuss Capes, and then dive into the meaty topic of the week and talk about some of our early interactions with Silksong.   Topics Discussed: Silksong Breaking All Storefronts Is This Seat Taken Path of Exile II is Actually Good Aero GPX Sword of the Sea Destiny Rising Capes Silksong Early Thoughts

And Super Metroid is fucking special. Some will argue this isn't just the best game on the SNES, but the best Metroidvania game ever made.From the atmosphere, to the music, to the controls (minus the wall jumping), Super Metroid doesn't really have a weakness. It's unquestionably one of the biggest NES to SNES leaps ever, and as a listener pointed out, it not only launched the Metroidvania genre, but it still does Metroidvania-ing better than games that came after it. Masterpiece is all that applies here.My boy Dan from Dissect That Film returns to this week to talk about his favourite game of all time, Super Metroid. The first RTG dedicated to Super Metroid was fun, but the audio was bad, even by our low standards. So we're here to right that wrong and give Samus the episode she deserves.And before we hunt bounties, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks what, if any, success I've had advertising RTG on the internet. Am I planning to play Kirby Air Riders? And what am I hoping to see out of the Gears of War movie??Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

This week on Critical Arcade, Nick and Dave don their finest velvet cloaks, pack an unreasonable number of throwing axes, and descend into the shadowy halls of Dracula's castle in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Released in 1997, this genre-defining Metroidvania dropped players into a haunting, labyrinthine fortress as Alucard—Dracula's half-human, half-vampire son who's way too cool to run and instead dramatically glides everywhere he goes.As they explore the eerie corridors of the castle, they'll face off against possessed suits of armor, bone dragons, cursed books, and whatever the hell a Scylla Wyrm is. Armed with swords, spells, and a voice performance that can only be described as “nobly confused,” Dave and Nick will attempt to piece together the bizarre plot, unlock secret passageways, and probably argue about whether the inverted castle is brilliant game design or the work of a sadist.Will Nick finally admit he's completely lost without a walkthrough? Can Dave go five minutes without turning into a wolf by accident? And what exactly is a man, anyway—just a miserable little pile of secrets, or something more?Tune in as the boys dive fang-first into one of gaming's most stylish, spooky, and iconic adventures. Just don't forget to bring a library card—this castle has a lot of reading. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jeremy Parish, Kate Willaert, Chris Sims, and Stuart Gipp open the book on their next collaborative community playthrough (Prince of Persia: The Lost Sands) by discussing the game's heritage and sharing listener thoughts on the first half of the quest.

Metroid is so influential to video games that to call it revolutionary would be selling it short. Mitch, Bryan, and Ryan struggle to limit the discussion to just this very important game because of that. Metroid being the Grandmother of the Metroidvania subgenre is a huge talking point of this episode but we didn't forget to talk about this title that started it all.

This week on Nintendo Therapy, Kevin and Harrison dive into the chaotic charm of Kirby & the Amazing Mirror — a Metroidvania twist on the classic series with multiple Kirbys, a corrupted mirror world, and some surprisingly deep speedrunning cred. We explore its unique development history, visual flair, and whether Missile Kirby is just a little too OP.Plus:Did Sakurai try to negotiate Kirby Air Ride 2 instead of another Smash?Harrison's got thoughts on recent Nintendo decisions (and kicks off our new Nintendo Therapy Couch segment).Harris has lost the feels for exploring and Kevin sets out to conquer his backlog. A fun, thoughtful episode full of nostalgia, rumors, and maybe a pitch for Dark Souls Kirby.#NintendoTherapy #KirbyAndTheAmazingMirror #Kirby #NintendoPodcast #Metroidvania #Sakurai #HALLaboratory #KirbyAirRide #GameBoyAdvance #NintendoRumors #RetroGaming #KirbyFans #NintendoSwitch

Is the planet also forbidden?The Xbox Game Pass "Surprise Me" button is back in control and it has chosen the one-and-only game that will ever be developed by Typhoon Studios. Published by 505 Games, this first-person title is billed as "action-adventure" but feels a bit more like "exploration-survival" to us. If you start with inspiration from Far Cry, add comedy science fiction films, and then mix that with Metroidvania elements, you may start to form an idea of what playing this game could be like. Fortunately for you, Tom and Chris have each dedicated an hour of their busy schedules to do some real reconnaissance on this wild world and are ready to determine if this interstellar investigation warrants increased investment. Join our duo as they discuss and find out if this savage planet is worth your time!What do you think?

One of the most intriguing Metroidvania's in recent years has to be the announcement of Bandai Namco's Shadow Labyrinth, not only because it looks cool, but because it's a wildly different take on the standard Pac-Man genre. Yes, that Pac-Man, the one who eats pucks and runs away from ghosts! Reimagined as a gritty Metroidvania, this game sees you control an unnamed Swordsman, traversing a giant maze, and combining with Puck, a floating orb companion, to unleash powerful attacks! We were excited about the game when it was announced, and our friends at Bandai Namco must have noticed, because they have supplied us with a demo copy of the game that we had Doominal take for a test drive! We're talking about his experiences with the demo, which you can watch in full here, and what worked and didn't! We're also playing a fun game of Metroid A-Z, inspired by Nintendo's awful Nintendo Today app, so come hang out!   Visit OmegaMetroid.com!   Subscribe!

Deze talkshow wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door MSI. Alle meningen in deze video zijn onze eigen. MSI heeft inhoudelijk geen inspraak op de content en zien de video net als jullie hier voor het eerst op de site.Het weekend staat voor de deur. En het belooft lekker weer te gaan worden. Misschien zelfs iets te warm in sommige regio's. Hoe fijn is het dan om iets op je oren te hebben als je straks op het strand of bij de plassen ligt. Vanuit een erg warme studio presenteren wij een nieuwe editie van Einde van de Week Live. Drie hosts, te weten Huey, Koos en Shelly gaan de discussie aan over een groot aantal onderwerpen. Bijvoorbeeld de Donkey Kong Bananza Direct van afgelopen woensdag. Wat vonden ze daarvan? Wat vinden ze van de enthousiaste previews van Borderlands 4? Dit alles en meer komt voorbij in de Einde van de Week Live van vrijdag 20 juni 2025.Wat vonden we van de Donkey Kong Bananza Direct?Er gebeurde deze week veel. Activision wist bijvoorbeeld niet hoe snel ze moesten melden dat Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 geen wall running en jetpacks zou hebben. Waarom was dat zo'n issue? Kojima meldde dat de eerste playtest zo positief uitpakte voor het verhaal, dat hij de boel meteen herschreef. Waarom? En die nieuwe God of War Metroidvania game wordt uitgesteld. Is dit een game die we in de gaten gaan houden of zitten we niet te wachten op Kratos in een Metroidvania? En zit Kratos er wel in?Profiteer van fijne kortingen op bijvoorbeeld de Vector 16 HX en maak kans op 250 cadeaukaart bij de ‘Upgrade Jouw Zomer' actieDe ‘E3'-periode is een speciale tijd.

This week on Critical Arcade, Dave and Nick tap into their inner chakras and dive headfirst into the gorgeously animated, spirit-infused world of Indivisible. When teenage hothead Ajna finds her village burned to the ground and a mysterious power awakened within her, she does what any emotionally stable protagonist would do—she sets off on a globe-spanning quest for vengeance and self-discovery. Along the way, she accidentally starts collecting souls like they're Pokémon, storing an increasingly chaotic cast of characters in her mind palace like it's a supernatural Airbnb. Can Dave survive the spiritual and emotional growth demanded by Ajna's quest, or will he be too distracted by the fact that one of the party members fights with a giant living yo-yo? And will Nick ever stop trying to perfect-parry everything, including environmental hazards? Join them as they punch gods in the face, question cosmic morality, and try to remember which button makes you slide. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Our next 2.5D platformer is another classic PlayStation adventure. We're talking about Tomba! which was developed by Whoopee Camp and released in North America on July 16, 1998. Leap, bite, and throw your way across stunning 2.5D landscapes on a quest to overcome a deplorable cadre of nefarious pigs.The brothers enjoyed the unique event system which brought RPG and Metroidvania elements to the 2.5D genre, but did acknowledge that it was easy to get lost at times. Pete and Tom have vastly different opinions on the music of Bacchus Village, but do agree that the inventory system was brutal. Ant references the classic brothers Eli Manning inside joke when talking about the evil pig boss battles.For this week's poll, the brothers are asking which event from the game would you rather do? a) Assist in healing Baron the dog to gain teleportation abilities.b) Help your monkey friend Charles find his pants to acquire the parasol and learn to swim.c) Do all of the pump rock tasks to restore the tree of knowledge and learn the answers to all your questions.Follow us onX @BrosBossBattlesYouTube @BrosBossBattlesInstagram @BrosBossBattleshttps://brothersandbossbattles.com/

Guacamelee is an indie classic, that released by in 2013 from DrinkBox Studios. This action platformer is a stylish take on the Metroidvania genre and its story and vibes were inspired by Mexican-culture and folklore. You play as a young farmhand-turned-luchador, who escapes the world of the dead using a magical mask. As you traverse these gorgeous map zones, both in the world of the living and the dead, you fight the evil Calaca's minions and gain new powers to push further in hopes of rescuing your dear Lupita. In episode 43 of No Small Games, Kate and Emily return to this classic indie game to see how it holds up today! They discuss the design of the platforming and special combat abilities and, of course, dissect the Metroidvania-style map. They also share their thoughts on the representation of Mexican culture in Guacamelee, relative to the many diverse representations we see today in indie games.
