Resident Evil changed everything.  When originally released in 1996, what was once a niche genre for enthusiasts was now a blockbuster staple in every second home.  All of a sudden people were craving zombies, horrifying monsters and disturbing themes.  It was so popular that Square, far more known for its more traditional JRPGs, decided to throw its hat in the ring and make Parasite Eve.On the surface, the game appeared to be textbook survival horror.  But dig a little deeper and you could see that Square was unable to escape its roots.  Turn based mode happened in a sphere similar to Vagrant Story, upgrades were plentiful and incremental, and the storytelling had more cutscenes than gameplay at least in the early stages.  Thematically this was still horrifying…but under the hood was a different story.Was this blend of genres ultimately successful, giving survival horror a fresh new perspective?  Or is it impossible to reconcile grim resources management with the power fantasy that RPGS almost always offer?On this episode, we discuss:StoryHow does Parasite Eve use real world science to lend an air of credibility to the horrific changes that are happening all over Manhattan?  Does it execute the smaller details well even if the larger picture is a bit silly at times?CombatHow enjoyable is the moment to moment real time combat of Parasite Eve?  The game requires you to dodge attacks, and pick the best moment to strike.  Is this too simplistic or does it work well?ProgressionHow do the weapon and armour upgrades work in Parasite Eve?  Does it provide the player with a satisfying sense of progression, or is it all just a confusing mess?We answer these questions and many more on the 132nd episode of the Retro Spectives Podcast!—Intro Music: KieLoBot - Tanzen KOutro Music: Rockit Maxx - One point to anotherParasite Eve OST: Yoko Shinomura—What crazy weapon upgrade paths do you like to use?  Is the NG+ mode worth playing?  How is Parasite Eve 2 different from the original?  Come let us know what you think on our discord server!Come let us know what you think or recommend us a new game on our community discord server!If you would like to support the show monetarily, you can buy us a coffee here!

🎮 Rejugando 264 – Kojima brilla, Capcom repite y Square Enix decepciona En este episodio, el equipo analiza el Capcom Spotlight, las primeras impresiones de Death Stranding 2 y la polémica del remaster de Final Fantasy Tactics. 💼 Capcom ofrece poco nuevo: Monster Hunter Wilds, Pragmata, Resident Evil 9 y Sagat ybañadores en Street Fighter 6. 🚶‍♂️ Death Stranding 2 fascina (o no): técnicamente impecable, pero muy continuista. ¿Más y mejor o repetitivo? 😤 Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster indigna: sin traducción al español, con filtros cutres y precio de lujo. 👏 Expedition 33 recibe elogios de Square Enix por su sistema de combate. 📉 Xbox prepara despidos y pierde rumbo con su marca. ❌ Hytale, el “Minecraft de Riot”, cancelado tras 10 años. 📱 Netflix borra joyas como Hades o Katana Zero en móviles. 🧟‍♂️ Ubisoft, en juicio por acoso sexual. 🧠 Y Don’t Nod también recorta tras tropiezos en ventas. Todo esto, con risas, crítica y mucho calor veraniego. Porque Rejugando aun no se va de vacaciones. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

🎙️ Rejugando 263: Los 5 mejores juegos de lanzamiento de cada consola + The Alters, Donkey Kong Bananza, Switch 2 y más En este episodio lleno de nostalgia, humor y actualidad, el equipo de Rejugando repasa los cinco mejores videojuegos de lanzamiento de todas las consolas, desde Atari 2600 y NES hasta PlayStation 5 y Nintendo Switch. Un viaje retro imprescindible donde brillan títulos como Super Mario Bros, Halo, Tetris, Sonic, Zelda: Breath of the Wild y muchos más. ¿Qué consola tuvo el mejor arranque? Lo debatimos al detalle. 💻 Además, celebran la llegada de “Bayonetta”, el nuevo PC de gama alta con el que el equipo mejora calidad, directos y grabación, gracias al apoyo de oyentes, suscriptores de Twitch y donantes anónimos. 📰 En la sección de actualidad: The Alters, lo nuevo de 11 bit studios, apunta alto como uno de los indies más impactantes del año: supervivencia, clones, decisiones y mucha narrativa. Donkey Kong Bananza sorprende con su estilo colorido, su mundo estilo Mario Odyssey, una banda sonora llena de guiños, y funciones cooperativas entre Switch 1 y 2. Preocupación por la piratería en Nintendo Switch 2: ya hay debates sobre posibles vulnerabilidades antes incluso del lanzamiento. Rumores sobre PS6 y la nueva Xbox: AMD se une a Microsoft y se habla de arquitectura más cercana al PC, mientras Sony ya planifica su próxima consola. El drama de Alzara: Radiant Echo, un proyecto de Kickstarter que recaudó 300.000 dólares y ha acabado en cierre y silencio. Las novedades de Game Pass y PlayStation Plus de junio llegan fuertes: Crash Bandicoot 4, Sifu, Tomb Raider, Little Nightmares 2, Call of Duty y más. Cine y videojuegos: Death Stranding tendrá película animada, Silent Hill vuelve a los cines, y muchas adaptaciones siguen perdidas en el limbo (Zelda, Gears of War, Metal Gear, Horizon, etc.). 💬 La pregunta de la semana: ¿Qué juego mainstream muy importante tuviste que abandonar porque no lo aguantabas?

🎮 Rejugando 262 – Nintendo Switch 2 rompe récords y Konami sorprende con Silent Hill, Metal Gear y más En este episodio 262 de Rejugando, el podcast se pone las pilas tras el aluvión de eventos veraniegos y se centra en dos bombazos que están dando de qué hablar en el mundo del videojuego: las ventas espectaculares de Nintendo Switch 2 y el inesperado y variado evento Konami Press Start. 🚀 Nintendo Switch 2: ventas descomunales, éxito imparable La sucesora de la mítica Nintendo Switch ha debutado con fuerza. En solo 4 días, Nintendo Switch 2 ha vendido más de 3,5 millones de unidades a nivel global, agotando stock allá donde se pone a la venta. En Japón rozó el millón de consolas, superando con creces el debut de PS5 y arrasando en EE.UU., donde ya se ha convertido en la consola de Nintendo con el estreno más rápido en ventas de la historia. Vicente, uno de los compis del programa, comparte sus impresiones tras una semana de uso: diseño más fino, imanes que generan dudas (pero funcionan), y una pantalla OLED de 8 pulgadas que impresiona… aunque no es perfecta. ¿El gran punto flaco? La ergonomía: largas sesiones pueden hacerte sentir como si te hubieras echado unas partidas en la Game Boy Micro con artritis. 🏁 Mario Kart World: el caos con ruedas… y sin amigos La nueva entrega de Mario Kart es frenética, innovadora y más caótica que nunca. Introduce el modo Supervivencia con 24 corredores en pantalla, físicas nuevas y circuitos que parecen diseñados por alguien con mucha cafeína y poca piedad. Vicente, nuestro piloto del día, lo define como un juego donde la gestión del caos se convierte en habilidad clave. Los ítems ahora exigen estrategia ninja, el salto con rail y las nuevas mecánicas añaden profundidad, y todo fluye como una rave en forma de circuito. ¿Lo malo? No puedes jugar en modo Supervivencia con tus amigos online. Si quieres jugar acompañado, será contra bots. Sí, en 2025. Nintendo sigue atrapada en el limbo online. El GameChat funciona (¡milagro!), pero no sirve de mucho si no puedes competir con colegas de verdad. Por ahora, la experiencia multijugador se siente… incompleta. 🧟‍♂️ Konami Press Start: el regreso del terror y la nostalgia Konami dice “¡aquí estoy!” y se marca una presentación compacta pero llena de contenido. Estas son algunas de las sorpresas que nos dejó: 🐍 Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Se confirma la implementación de una nueva IA para los jefes. Se suma contenido extra como el “Sneaking Pack” (trajes especiales). ¡Y un nuevo modo multijugador online! “Fox Hunt” promete acción sigilosa ambientada en el universo de Metal Gear, aunque aún sin gameplay. 👻 Silent Hill F Terror japonés en estado puro: estética floral y macabra, y una historia que mezcla belleza y horror. Gina, la protagonista, es una chica normal atrapada en un entorno cada vez más siniestro. El sistema de combate será accesible pero tenso, y el mundo parece diseñado con mimo. ¡Ojo! Se han desvelado detalles del HUD, con barra de vida, resistencia y elementos visuales crípticos que prometen jugar con nuestros nervios. 🎉 ¡BOMBAZO! Silent Hill 1 Remake confirmado Sí, lo sabías, pero ahora es oficial. Konami y Bloober Team trabajan ya en el remake del primer Silent Hill. Sin fecha, sin tráiler, pero con hype nivel “te firmo ya”. 🎮 Otros anuncios destacados 🐙 Dark Wings Paradox: un plataformas adorable con un pulpo que quiere volver a casa. Bonito, trágico y lleno de muertes ridículas. 📦 Deliver at All Cost: reparto caótico a lo Mario Kart con paquetes absurdos y físicas descontroladas. Risas aseguradas. 🧙‍♂️ Suikoden vuelve con una remasterización confirmada para Switch 2 y un nuevo título para móviles y Steam: Star Leap. 🚀 Gradius Origins celebra el 40º aniversario con una colección de clásicos que llega en agosto. ⚾ Juegos de béisbol, Yugioh, anime y actualizaciones multijugador que refuerzan el regreso de Konami a la acción. 📢 ¿Y qué más? Como guinda, se confirma que el RPG Dawnwalker llegará totalmente traducido y doblado al español, tanto en textos como voces, lo cual es una excelente noticia para la comunidad hispanohablante.

🎮 Rejugando 261 – Summer Game Fest 2025, Xbox Showcase y State of Play: todos los anuncios, consolas y momentazos ¡Bienvenidos al episodio más cargado de hype del año! En Rejugando 261 repasamos todo lo que ha dejado la “navidad del videojuego”: el Summer Game Fest 2025, el Xbox Games Showcase y el State of Play de Sony. Tres eventos, cientos de juegos y una sola misión: separar el hype real del humo. Capcom se marca un momentazo con Resident Evil Requiem (RE9), que vuelve a una Raccoon City en ruinas con terror más psicológico y un tráiler que nos dejó tiesos. Por su parte, Kojima se pasa de cineasta con Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, cuya intro parece directamente rodada en Hollywood. Y Microsoft, sin avisar, lanza su propia portátil: la ROG Ally Xbox Edition, compatible con Game Pass, Steam y más. ¡Una bestia sin lector físico y con pinta de romper el mercado! Pero hay más: Persona 4 Revival confirma el esperado remake del clásico de ATLUS (aunque aún sin fecha), Final Fantasy Tactics vuelve con lavado de cara pero sin español, y Marvel Rivals, el juego de lucha 4v4 estilo anime, lo peta con Iron Man, Spider-Man y compañía. Tampoco faltan joyas como el nuevo James Bond (007: First Light), los misteriosos Clockwork Revolution y Pragmata, la acción estilo Souls de Nioh 3 o los anuncios más indie, como Tactics Returners o el juego de faros con traumas (literal). Y ojo, que Atomic Heart 2, Sonic Crossroads y Tales of también pasaron por escena. Además, el equipo comparte sus primeras impresiones con la nueva Nintendo Switch 2: buen rendimiento, mejoras visuales y autonomía decente (aunque algunos modelos se calientan más que Kojima en una entrevista). Y sí, también hubo ausencias sonadas: Fable, Perfect Dark, Kingdom Hearts IV y Dragon Quest XII brillaron… por su ausencia. 📦 Si te lo perdiste, este resumen en clave divertida te pone al día de TODO: juegos, consolas, polémicas, momentazos, teorías locas y mucho, mucho salseo videojueguil.

Bastinus Rex propose un univers définitivement à part. Mêlant esthétique PSX, surréalisme et mystères, ses jeux Trip et Carimara ont clairement taper dans l'oeil de Julien qui a mené cet entretien. Ensemble, ils reviennent sur son background sur des jeux hypercasuals, ses premières game jam, le fait d'être solo dev, la technique très do-it-yourself derrière les plantes de Carimara, et bien d'autres choses.

Los mejores E3 de la historia y Nintendo Switch 2 a punto de caramelo 🎮 ¡La emoción se palpa en el ambiente! En este episodio cargado de nostalgia y hype, el equipo de Rejugando se reúne para celebrar por todo lo alto lo que más nos gusta: videojuegos, historia y actualidad con humor y pasión. Con la Nintendo Switch 2 a solo días de su lanzamiento, nos lanzamos a debatir sobre compatibilidades, cartuchos, rumores y reservas canceladas (sí, Game UK, te estamos mirando 👀). También exploramos los cambios que traerá la nueva consola y qué esperar del inminente Summer Game Fest, la nueva “Navidad gamer” donde Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox y compañía calientan motores para sorprendernos. Pero eso no es todo. Hacemos un viaje en el tiempo para revivir los momentazos más míticos del E3: el tatuaje de GTA IV, el “My body is ready”, el debut de Final Fantasy VII Remake, la santísima trinidad de Sony 2015 (¡saludos, Shenmue!) y muchos más momentos legendarios que hicieron historia. 🎵 También celebramos cumpleaños ilustres como Dragon Quest (¡39 años!), Mario Kart 8, Overwatch y otras joyas que nos hacen sentir viejos pero felices. 🎮 Además, analizamos a fondo la demo de Prelude: Dark Pain, un prometedor RPG táctico español que nos ha dejado encantados por su arte, música y su historia oscura y atrapante. ¡Ojito, que aún estás a tiempo de apoyarlo en Kickstarter! 🧢 ¿Pokémon? Claro que sí. Hablamos del nuevo Leyendas Pokémon Z-A, del próximo Pokémon Presents, y especulamos sobre si está cerca una nueva generación. 🧠 Y para cerrar, suenan tambores de JRPG: rumores de Persona 4 Remake calentitos, pistas, actores de doblaje que se despiden… ¡y Atlus en modo teaser! 📌 Si te gustan los videojuegos, el buen rollo, los datos jugosos y un toque de nostalgia, este episodio es para ti. ¡Dale al play y súmate a la fiesta! #NintendoSwitch2 #SummerGameFest #E3 #RejugandoPodcast #Videojuegos #DragonQuest #Persona4Remake #PreludeDarkPain #Pokémon #RetroGaming #PodcastGamer Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

Bienvenidos a un nuevo Expediente GX con Carlos Bon, de Kanagawa Podcast. En el mundo de la creación de contenido, hay muchos tipos de personas, hay unos que se viralizan y se hacen muy famosos por llamar la atención, o por opiniones polémicas, y otros que alcanzan la fama por tener contactos y ser amiguetes de alguien. Pero hay otros que se hacen conocidos, o que consiguen seguidores, por ser ellos mismos, por su forma de ser, por transmitir amabilidad, confianza, seguridad y transparencia. Ése es el caso de nuestro invitado de hoy, un invitado que empezó un pódcast con su amigo, al que no tenía cerca, sino que vivía en otra ciudad, simplemente por el hecho de poder hablar y conversar al menos una vez a la semana, hablando, así, de lo que les apasionaba, de los videojuegos. Así conocimos al amigo que nos acompaña hoy y que viene a hablar con nosotros. Hoy hablamos con uno de los melenas del podgaming español. Hoy hablamos con Carlos Bon de Kanagawa Podcast.

In this week's Gaming Fun Fact we take a look at the PSX - not to be confused with the PS1 (codename PSX). The PSX was a digital video recorder that was capable of playing PS2 and PS1 games. The device had multiple retail revisions and was only released in Japan.Rumors and leaks have been circling an alleged Oblivion remake with the latest information indicating that Bethesda may shadow drop the title as soon as April 2025. Monster Hunter Wilds has had a very successful launch with over 8 million copies sold in the first three days of release. Producer Ryozo Tsujimoto thinks that the game's success is in part due to the title's immersive story.BlizzCon 2025 is not happening, but Blizzard has promised a great show for 2026. In the past five years there have been two in-person Blizzcon events, is the show on its last leg?Defiance, the Syfy TV series with a companion MMO is coming back! Not the show, but the PC version of the MMO is about to be revived by Fawkes. We used to play this title a bit back in the day and it was a good time, so we're happy that it's back!

How much electricity will AI need? To train AI models companies use graphics processing units, also known as GPUs. They are now starting to build larger clusters of GPUs, which requires even more electricity. How much electricity you may ask? AI data centers use about 30 Megawatts of electricity at a time. If you don't understand megawatts, let's just say it's a lot of power. Picture 30 Walmart stores and how much electricity they use at any given time, that is estimated at 30 megawatts. Fast forward five years into the future when there will be more data centers and larger AI models. It is estimated they will require 5 gigawatts of electricity. 5 gigawatts is a huge amount of energy, it is about the same amount of energy needed to power a city like Manhattan in New York. Also, a big concern is within the next five years these massive data centers could consume up to 17% of US electricity. You may be thinking just build more power plants. The problem is data centers can be completed within 18 to 24 months, but to build a power plant can take over three years and that's provided all permits and regulations are met on time. There's also the concern of how do you get that energy to the data centers, you're going to need more transmission lines, but that can take 10 years or longer to get that task completed. Wind and solar are not the answer because data centers need power 24 hours seven days a week and when the sun goes down or the wind stops, there's no power. I see some roadblocks ahead with fast moving AI, maybe we need to slow down a little bit?   Mag Seven capital expenditures could be a big problem! The Mag Seven, which includes Apple, Alphabet, Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, Nvidia, and Tesla has been a group that has dominated the stock market the last couple of years. Much of the excitement around the stocks have been tied to advancements in AI, but there has still been little evidence these companies (outside of Nvidia) have been able to profit from the trend. A major concern I have is these companies are investing tons of money and the big question is how profitable will these investments be? It is estimated Alphabet, Microsoft, and Meta will spend $200 billion on artificial intelligence this year alone and their budgets have continued to grow. If we look at total capital expenditures, also known as capex, the budgets have grown immensely for many of these companies. Amazon is projected to spend around $105 billion on capital expenditures in 2025, up 27% from 2024, which came after a 57% increase over 2023. Microsoft has guided to $80 billion in capex for its fiscal 2025, up 80% from 2024, which was up 58% from the year before. Alphabet estimated capex of $75 billion in 2025, up 43% from 2023, which was up 63% from 2022. Meta has a forecast of $60 billion to $65 billion of capex in 2025, up 68% at the midpoint from 2024, which was up by 37% from the year before. The big problem with major capex is investors won't see much of a difference in earnings, but there will be major hits to free cashflow. Capex is generally expensed or depreciated over time, which means it won't hit earnings in a major way initially, but it could weigh on earnings growth over time as that expense remains for years to come and potentially grows if capex budgets continue to climb. As an example, Meta is projected to see $68 billion of net income this year, but free cash flow could slide 25% to $40 billion. Investments of this magnitude need to pay off, especially considering the high valuations for these stocks. Time will tell if these investments work out for all these companies, but I must say I'm skeptical they will all be winners from this movement 5-10 years from now. Investors need to look at the full picture and understand all the moving parts, which includes how all the financial statements work together. At our firm we don't just look at earnings, we also want to see good cash flow and a strong balance sheet.   Producer Prices come in hotter than expected    The Producer Price Index, also known as the PPI, showed prices in January climbed 0.4% compared to last month. This topped the expectation of 0.3% and led to an annual increase of 3.5%. Core PPI, which excludes food and energy, produced an annual gain of 3.4%, which was lower than last month's reading of 3.5%. While these data points were a little hotter than expected, economists now have inputs to estimate the closely followed PCE report. It is interesting that after the release of the CPI and PPI, which were both higher than expected, estimates for core PCE actually look quite favorable. On a monthly basis core PCE is expected to show a 0.22% increase, which would be a nice deceleration from December's reading of 0.45% and on annual basis estimates are looking for a reasonable 2.5% increase. We will have to see what the actual results look like for the PCE later this month, but with these reports now in hand I continue to believe that while inflation is not at the Fed target, I still don't see it as a major problem.   The True Cost of Credit Card Interest Everyone knows that paying credit card interest is a bad thing, but it's less well known how that interest is accrued.  Interest is calculated using an average daily balance method, which means every single purchase begins accruing interest immediately.  Purchases made on a credit card throughout a monthly statement period increase the outstanding balance.  After a month of spending, if the full statement balance is paid by the due date, which is generally 20 to 25 days after the statement period ends, no interest will be due, even though it was accruing during that time.  This is known as the grace period which is essentially an interest-free loan on those purchases. For example, if you spend a total of $5,000 through a statement period during January, you will not need to make a $5,000 payment until the end of February to avoid any interest. However, if you do not make that full payment by the due date in February, your grace period is void and you will owe accrued interest from the date those purchases were made in January, not from the due date in February.  Also, any additional purchases made in February and afterward begin accruing interest immediately without a grace period, even though those statement periods have not ended yet.  Since interest is calculated using the average daily balance method, the unpaid balance and interest compounds on itself making it more and more difficult to pay off. Credit cards have a monthly minimum payment, which is usually $25 to $50 dollars, which paying prevents a mark on your credit report, but it does not stop interest from accruing.  Credit cards can be a great tool as they can give you points and fraud protection, but those benefits are greatly outweighed when a balance is being carried.   Companies Discussed: Dollar Tree, Inc. (DLTR), Grand Canyon Education, Inc. (LOPE), Mondelez International, Inc. (MDLZ) & Phillips 66 (PSX)

This week on The Free Cheese, we are not ninjas. What happens when a franchise reaches incredible heights and has nowhere to go but outward? A grand adventure to collect the icons of the elements, if you can survive controlling it. We take a look at one of Mortal Kombat's first experiments and see how it holds up.

This week we dive head first into the "Grandfather of Metroidvanias" with "Castlevania: Symphony of the Night". Is this as great as everyone says?

Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. The [6.9%] yield is the average annualized yield to maturity (YTM) across all ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees, as of [8/28/2024]. A bond's yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore a bond's YTM is “locked in” when the bond is purchased. Your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTM is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTM of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity, or if the issuer calls or defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our Fee Schedule at https://public.com/disclosures/fee-schedule.    Bond Accounts are not recommendations of individual bonds or default allocations. The bonds in the Bond Account have not been selected based on your needs or risk profile. You should evaluate each bond before investing in a Bond Account.  The bonds in your Bond Account will not be rebalanced and allocations will not be updated, except for Corporate Actions. Fractional Bonds also carry additional risks including that they are only available on Public and cannot be transferred to other brokerages. Read more about the risks associated with fixed income (https://public.com/disclosures/fixed-income-disclosure) and fractional bonds (https://public.com/disclosures/apex-fractional-bond-disclosure).

Welcome to a somewhat experimental episode of the Resident Evil Podcast where the team looks back specifically at the original PSX trilogy and the influences in horror gaming that our beloved title drew from. This means an examination of some older horror titles that shaped the industry before Biohazard including Sweet Home, Alone in the Dark and Clock Tower with an analysis on what aspects worked to bring the scares in a low polygon era. We then discuss why Resident Evil was so special and despite perhaps not being the first "survival horror" title (albeit the game that coined the phrased), the OG trilogy in particular became the benchmark in jump scares, tension and cinematic gaming. The conversation then switches to the games that were influenced by Resident Evil - and boy are there many! From the obvious like Dino Crisis and Silent Hill, but also some obscure titles like Deep Fear and Run Like Hell that have really flown under the radar! In the news we also share our thoughts on the recent fan film - The Keeper's Diary and theBatman reveals the creation process for his recent REmake mythology!  Musical credit to WackySB for the incredible remixed save room themes (https://tinyurl.com/ye2acphr) Enjoy!
