The adventure continues as the crew dives deeper into the chaotic world of "Corrupted Fantasy." Christian Ashley, our fearless DM, leads John Erdely and Nick Polk as they grapple with the complexities of their eclectic party, which features the likes of Spyro the Dragon, Kumar, Freakazoid, Samwise Gamgee, and Guan Yin. Picking up where they left off, the group faces the eerie remnants of a devastated Rivendell, where they must confront a corrupted Bilbo Baggins, who's all too eager to reclaim his precious. The stakes escalate when the characters navigate through the Mines of Moria, encountering unexpected twists that you won't wanna miss. As hilarity ensues and decisions take a sharp turn, they must work together to overcome the forces of corruption and forge their path to victory, all while throwing in a few clever quips along the way. Buckle up for a wild ride filled with pop culture references and light-hearted banter in this gripping continuation of their fantasy saga! The saga of 'Corrupted Fantasy' continues to weave a tapestry of chaotic humor and unexpected twists, as Christian Ashley, the DM, leads John Erdely and Nick Polk through the wilds of Middle-earth with a crew that's anything but ordinary. In this session, the players, embodying iconic characters like Spyro the Dragon, Kumar from 'Harold & Kumar', the quirky Freakazoid, the ever-loyal Samwise Gamgee, and the serene Guan Yin, navigate the aftermath of a corrupted Rivendell. The narrative kicks off with a recap of their previous misadventures, where the gang found themselves embroiled in a darker version of the Lord of the Rings universe, facing a half-powered Sauron and a mysteriously altered Bilbo Baggins, who is now a shadow of his former self, thanks to the corrupting influence of a ring that is only half as powerful as the original. As they delve into the Mines of Moria, the tension rises with the haunting echoes of Gollum's voice, and the players must confront their own inner conflicts as they grapple with the seductive whispers of power and corruption. The episode takes a turn for the absurd when the players attempt to heal Spyro after a botched attack, only to be interrupted by a bizarre encounter with Bilbo, who has become a grotesque figure consumed by desire for the ring. The banter flows freely as the characters interact, with Freakazoid's comic relief contrasting sharply with Sam's emotional turmoil over his beloved mentor's transformation. The players navigate this emotional landscape with a mix of wit and humor, creating a delightful blend of drama and levity that keeps the listeners engaged. The stakes are raised as the party must decide how to handle Bilbo's corrupted state, leading to unexpected plot developments that showcase the players' creativity and strategic thinking in dealing with the challenges thrown their way. As the episode unfolds, the group's dynamics come to the forefront. Each character's unique attributes and backgrounds offer rich opportunities for humor and conflict, particularly as they deal with the looming threat of Saruman and the ever-present danger of the ring's corruption. The episode culminates in a dramatic showdown where the characters must face their fears and make choices that will impact not just their fates, but the very fabric of the world they inhabit. The combination of clever storytelling and the players' improvisational skills results in a rollercoaster of emotions, leaving the audience eager for the next installment of this geeky escapade.

What happens when beloved fictional realms get a little too wild? Christian Ashley, the DM extraordinaire, invites co-host John Erdely and guest Nick Polk into the chaotic world of "Corrupted Fantasy," part of the Geeks on a Roll series. Their eclectic party includes fan-favorites like Spyro the Dragon, Kumar from the Harold & Kumar flicks, and even the whimsical Freakazoid, alongside characters like Sam from Lord of the Rings and Guan Yin from Buddhist mythology. As they roll the dice and navigate this twisted tale, they'll face off against familiar foes with a uniquely corrupted twist, all while trying to keep their team intact. Join them for a blend of strategy, humor, and a sprinkle of nostalgia as they embark on a quest that's anything but straightforward. Exploring the depths of corrupted fantasy, Christian Ashley leads a vibrant discussion with new players Nick Polk and John Eardely on the latest episode of Geeks on a Roll. The trio dives deep into the concept of fiction being thrown off course, akin to a narrative roller coaster gone haywire, which sets the stage for a chaotic yet entertaining Dungeons and Dragons campaign. As they embody eclectic characters like Spyro the dragon and the compassionate deity Guanyin, listeners are treated to a fascinating blend of humor and insightful commentary on the nature of storytelling and character development.

Nick, who shares his affinity for dark fantasy through his character selections, contrasts with John's quirky choices, including the loony superhero Freakazoid. This delightful juxtaposition highlights the diverse backgrounds and preferences that each player brings to the table, making for a rich narrative experience that resonates with long-time fans and newcomers alike.

In this episode, Chris Cochrane leads with a $200,000 Star Wars LEGO collection that exploded into lawsuits, arrests, and a YouTube crusade.

First, he previews a packed rundown before digging into the night’s lead story, a consignment deal gone very wrong. From there, the episode runs through gaming, sports, artificial intelligence, and space. Finally, Chris closes with personal updates on recent travel, a new camera, and a media business he is building. The $200,000 Star Wars LEGO Consignment War Chris leads with a sentence he never expected to say on the show. A dispute over a box of Star Wars LEGO has produced a racketeering lawsuit, multiple arrests, and a public statement from the CEO of Patreon. Bryan Mansell and his 83-year-old father, Ed, spent years assembling roughly 780 sealed sets, valued near $200,000. Back in 2023, they consigned the collection to the Keizer, Oregon branch of the franchise chain Bricks and Minifigs, splitting sales 65/35. However, the store changed hands in late 2024, and the new operators allegedly stopped paying and refused to return the unsold sets. From there it escalated fast. Stunt YouTuber Benjamin Schneider, known as “Reckless Ben,” took up the cause and split the claim into about ten small-claims cases, winning default judgments when the store skipped court. Meanwhile, his GoFundMe pushed past $600,000 and his videos drew millions of views. The company fired back with a Utah RICO suit naming Schneider, Mansell, and others, and Schneider was arrested on charges including stalking and trespass. Notably, Patreon CEO Jack Conte refused the company’s demand to pull Schneider’s page, telling Bricks and Minifigs they could “stuff it.” Eventually, the corporate franchisor parted ways with the store owners, cited gross negligence, and invited Mansell to settle. Chris’s own take: had the store simply returned the collection, none of this would have happened, and the owner “kind of deserved” the heat.

Summer Game Fest 2026 Unloads a Stacked Lineup Next, Chris turns to Summer Game Fest, which Geoff Keighley hosted June 5 from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. Capcom opened with a remake of the 2000 cult classic, now titled Resident Evil Veronica, bringing Claire Redfield back for a 2027 launch. Square Enix then closed the night with Final Fantasy 7 Revelation, the remake trilogy’s finale, also targeting 2027. Other reveals included a new Spyro the Dragon, the console debut of Guild Wars 3, and a 2027 window for The Wolf Among Us 2. For the record, Fable and Halo Campaign Evolved appeared at the separate Xbox Games Showcase, not SGF itself. Off script, Chris riffed on the games he is most excited about. He flagged GTA 6, now expected in November at a rumored $100-plus price, alongside new Wolverine, Until Dawn, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin titles. The lineup, he admitted, has him ready to finally buy a PlayStation 5. A World Record Falls at the First Enhanced Games The first Enhanced Games ran May 24 in Las Vegas, openly allowing performance-enhancing drugs and skipping anti-doping tests. Greek swimmer Kristian Gkolomeev swam the 50-meter freestyle in 20.81 seconds, beating the official record and pocketing a $1 million bonus. However, he wore a polyurethane supersuit banned since 2010, so the suit arguably mattered as much as any chemistry. Interestingly, several athletes who said they raced clean still won, including sprinter Fred Kerley and swimmer Hunter Armstrong. Predictably, WADA, World Aquatics, World Athletics, and the IOC all condemned the event and will not recognize the results. Chris, for his part, found the whole spectacle more fun than alarming. An AI Collar Claims It Can Translate Your Dog A startup called PettiChat is selling an AI collar that claims to translate barks and meows in real time at 94.6 percent accuracy. To be fair, it is no obvious scam, with real funding, a working app, and coverage from Forbes and Vice. Still, no peer-reviewed research or independent lab backs that number. Reviewers called the demo footage “undeniably staged,” and the best real science reads broad emotion, not full sentences. Chris agreed from experience, noting that any longtime dog owner already reads their pet’s body language well enough. Microsoft Builds Its Own AI Coding Models At its Build conference in early June, Microsoft unveiled MAI-Code-1-Flash, its first homegrown coding model. The tool turns plain-English prompts into source code and plugs into GitHub Copilot and Visual Studio Code. Additionally, Microsoft previewed a reasoning model, MAI-Thinking-1, on its Foundry platform. The strategy is clear: Microsoft remains OpenAI’s biggest backer, yet it wants to depend on OpenAI less and cut developer costs. The timing is loud, too, since Anthropic just filed confidentially for an IPO and OpenAI is reportedly readying its own. AI Leaders Ask Congress to Screen Synthetic DNA On a more sobering note, the CEOs of OpenAI, Anthropic, Google DeepMind, and Microsoft AI signed a joint letter to Congress. Together, they want mandatory screening at the companies that synthesize custom DNA to order. Their argument is blunt: powerful AI is eroding the expertise that once limited who could engineer a biological weapon. Therefore, they urge identity verification, sequence screening, and recordkeeping written into federal law this session. As Chris put it, when the people building the technology sound this worried, it is worth paying attention. Blue Origin’s New Glenn Explodes on the Test Stand Finally, Chris closes the headlines in space. Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket erupted in a fireball during a static-fire test at Cape Canaveral on May 28. Fortunately, nobody was hurt and no satellites were aboard, though the first stage and some ground equipment were destroyed. That booster was set to launch Amazon’s first big batch of Leo internet satellites, the constellation formerly known as Project Kuiper. Afterward, CEO Dave Limp vowed to fly again this year, while NASA’s Jared Isaacman pushed to move Blue Origin’s lunar lander onto a backup rocket. Meanwhile, SpaceX flew its next-generation Starship Version 3 for the first time on May 22. Chris’s Travels, a New Camera, and a Media Venture To wrap up, Chris shares what he has been up to away from the mic. First, he recaps a hot, sickness-plagued trip to Disneyland in California, then a far better visit to Portland to see Ray. Proudly, he congratulates his brother on graduating and predicts their dad would be proud too. He also gushes about his new Nikon ZR camera, built on RED technology, which he says rivals a Sony FX3 at half the price. Beyond that, he is building a media business with a friend, taking free shoots to network while leaning on directing as his strength. You can find his work on Instagram at @dis.chris. Chris signs off with the usual ecosystem mentions: GNC Insider at geeknewscentral.com/insider, email at geeknews@gmail.com, the show newsletter, and modern podcast apps at podcastapps.com. He also thanks GoDaddy for over twenty years of support and teases a return to a more regular release schedule.

Summer showcase season is officially in the books — and Greg, Ty, and Uly have receipts.This week, the crew digs into the data behind all the hype: which games actually won Summer Game Fest according to Steam wishlist numbers and search trends, and why the top three spots all went to remakes and sequels. Code Veronica taking the #1 wishlist spot gets the full breakdown — Ty explains why the game's weird place in Resident Evil canon is exactly the reason people are losing their minds over it, and the crew goes deep on how RE4 and Code Veronica's release timeline essentially screwed Capcom's own franchise order. Ocarina of Time, Persona 6, Insomniac's Wolverine, Gears of War: E-Day, Kingdom Hearts, and Spyro all get their moment.Then things get real when Greg drops the number: Gears of War: E-Day reportedly cost $400 million to make. The crew breaks down why that figure is almost impossible to recoup — comparing it to Spider-Man 2's $300M budget, which needed 7.2 million copies at full price to break even, against Gears of War II's total lifetime sales of 6.75 million copies ever. Factor in that the game launches Day 1 on Game Pass, Xbox's recent price drop, and that Microsoft is quietly aging out its console ambitions — and this gets uncomfortable fast.Also: a full Resident Evil 6 rehabilitation arc, the correct story order to play RE6 (yes, there is one), a debate on whether RE5 deserves a remake, and the moment Greg admits he's never actually played Until Dawn, Detroit: Become Human, or Heavy Rain — despite knowing every detail about all three. Ty does not take this well.Plus — the 8th anniversary of GZ Chop Shop is coming. July 18th. G Fuel is involved. More details dropping in the newsletter soon.Key Topics:Breakdown of Summer Game Fest's top winners and surprises, including Stellar Blade, Gears of War, and Dawn 2.The cultural significance of franchises like Gears of War and Kingdom Hearts.The impact of search trends and search result data on game popularity.Industry analysis: budget estimates, sales figures, and the feasibility of blockbuster hits like Xbox's $400 million exclusive.The debate over remakes: Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, and the longevity of classic titles.The complex timeline of Resident Evil remakes and their impact on franchise storytelling.Technical and strategic industry insights, including counterfeit perceptions and hardware shortages.The role of game subscriptions like Game Pass in the financial landscape.Final thoughts on upcoming releases, the state of the industry, and the importance of community engagement.Subscribe to the GZ Press Play Gaming Newsletter for the full written breakdown every Thursday: gz-press-play-gaming-newsletter.beehiiv.com

Spyro A Realm Beyond didn't give us MUCH to go on...but it certainly gave us enough to think about to begin hoping for what it could be. From the new flight mechanics, the presentation, the potential minigames...we wanted to talk about what we do, and don't, want from the return of the classic Spyro formula.MORE PLACES TO FIND USCrubscribe ► https://bit.ly/CrubcastGet the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/crubOur Crubcasts are recorded LIVE at https://www.twitch.tv/crub_official every Tuesday at 7pm Eastern, with EXCLUSIVE Pre- and Post-ShowsJoin our Discord ► https://crub.org/joinBlueSky ► https://bsky.app/profile/crub.orgCome join our Steam group ► https://steamcommunity.com/groups/crubclubPodcasts are available on Apple, Google, Spotify, and other platforms are available at ► https://crub.orgSHOW NOTESWe kind of joke about Stewart Copeland "no efforting" the PS1 music, we're just lightheartedly calling back to this short interview from the time.

The Fork In Your Ear Ep#215 Eternia of Games! - Podcast Show Notes Summary 6-13-26 Gaming News – Oops All Games Edition! Tim and Nate kick off with an "oops all games" episode packed wall-to-wall with fresh showcases. They open with the Xbox Games Showcase (June 7). Tim watched with Jessica while making breakfast; Nate and Cara ran it live in the Discord. Key highlights: Gears of War: E-Day (Oct 6, Xbox Series X/S, PC, Game Pass day one, Unreal Engine 5 built from the ground up by The Coalition). The prequel Emergence Day story stars Marcus and Dom. The Coalition's deep Unreal expertise and "from-scratch" approach have everyone hyped for performance and visuals. Tim and Nate debate third-person cover shooters (Nate's not a fan of the mechanic; Tim loves the destroyed world, underground critters, and chainsaw guns). Fable – New cinematic trailer confirms Haley Atwell (Agent Carter) as the long-teased villain Isabel. Jack of Blades gets a surprise tease, hinting at multiple villains. A 30-minute full gameplay video dropped days later showing a talking pig quest, romance options, UI, and systems in action. Delayed to February 23, 2027 (Xbox, PC, Game Pass, and still coming to PS5) to polish and avoid GTA 6. Tim is very excited; Nate is cautiously optimistic but holding judgment on open-world RPG scope. Halo: Campaign Evolved (July 28, Xbox, PC, PS5, Game Pass) – UE5 remake of Halo 1 with core Blam engine (physics/game logic pulled from Halo: Reach) for that authentic "spongy" feel. New Sergeant Johnson voice actor, prequel missions (Assault on the Control Room & Silent Cartographer) locked behind the main campaign, vehicle jacking, new weapons (energy sword, fuel rod, brute spiker), sprint, clambering, 40+ skulls, and a "Remix Mode" for wild enemy swaps/randomization. 4-player co-op (local split-screen + online). Previews are extremely positive; limited collector's editions sold out fast. Tim is all-in on the respectful-yet-improved remake treatment and wants to share it with new players. Other Xbox news: Persona 6 trailer reactions (mixed/underwhelmed), new Spyro game from Toys for Bob (Tom Kenny returning as Spyro, Dragonflight mechanics), Clockwork Revolution (InXile steampunk RPG, Xbox ecosystem exclusive vibes), S.T.A.L.K.E.R.-era title getting Unreal Engine help from The Coalition + Grounded-style cross-world system, new dark Metro game from the Ukrainian team (still developing in wartime conditions), Resonance (Plague Tale legacy?), Minecraft Dungeons 2, new Senua Hellblade-universe action game (Nate loved the first, mixed on the second; Tim was never a fan but this one looks more classic Ninja Theory), Crazy Taxi World Tour (2027, pure arcade nostalgia), and Castlevania: Belmont's Curse (Oct 15 – Tim is already hooked into his veins; Switch 2 version delayed, which upsets him).

Chris and Tim come at you after a week off to talk about a Star Wars movie losing out to a movie made for under $1 Million, a new Spyro game and Nintendo's way at trying to get people to buy the Switch 2. They also discuss to forecast of a big opening weekend for Toy Story 5 and all the things tied to this very successful franchise.
Fresh off the heels of Summer Game Fest, we take a look at the Xbox Games Showcase, where Microsoft showed more of Gears of War: E-Day, Fable, and Clockwork Revolution. Then, we got to check out Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, The Lost Wild, Spyro: A Realm Beyond and more.(00:00) Creature Cast Intro(2:45) Xbox Games Showcase(36:10) Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis (47:25) The Lost Wild(52:50) Spyro: A Realm Beyond(56:10) Aniimo(59:30) OutroWebsite: https://www.consolecreatures.com/Like and follow us on Social Media:Bluesky: @consolecreatures.comYouTube: @ConsoleCreaturesTwitter: @ConsoleCreatureFacebook: @RealConsoleCreatureInstagram: @ConsoleCreaturesThreads: @Consolecreatures
The Xbox Games Showcase 2026 has come and gone, and we were there in person to see it unfold. This week, Luke and Captain Logun break down Xbox's biggest announcements, including Gears of War: E-Day, Halo: Campaign Evolved, Fable, Spyro: A Realm Beyond, State of Decay 3, Clockwork Revolution, Persona 6, and more. We also discuss the atmosphere inside the theater, reactions from attendees, Xbox FanFest, and whether Xbox finally delivered on its promise to "Return to Xbox." Topics include: • Gears of War: E-Day gameplay and October release plans • Halo: Campaign Evolved's visual overhaul and new missions • Why Fable finally won us over • Spyro's return after years away • Clockwork Revolution's growing momentum • State of Decay 3 gameplay impressions • Persona 4 Revival and Persona 6 on Xbox • Xbox's 25th Anniversary hardware reveal • FanFest experiences and meeting Xbox leadership • Is Xbox finally building momentum again?
Are Xbox exclusives officially back, or is this just another strange chapter in Microsoft's gaming strategy? This week on Triangle Squared: A PlayStation Podcast, we react to the latest Xbox Showcase and Nintendo Direct, breaking down the biggest reveals, surprises, and questions coming out of both events. Gears of War E-Day is now being positioned as an Xbox console exclusive, Clockwork Revolution looks genuinely fantastic, Fable brought back Jack of Blades, and Xbox suddenly seems interested in making exclusives matter again. But does any of this actually move the needle? We get into Xbox's identity crisis, whether Game Pass has changed the value of exclusives, what Asha Sharma's leadership could mean after Phil Spencer, and whether PlayStation players should believe these games are truly staying off PS5. We also discuss State of Decay 3, Halo Campaign Evolved, the Xbox 25th Anniversary console, Persona, Spyro, Final Fantasy, Nintendo's showcase strategy, and which company had the best showing overall.

Kevin beskriver sig själv som en drömmare vars dröm manifesterats till månadens spel i Indiespelklubben. PaperKlay är en collectathon som flörtar med forna systemsäljare såsom Jak & Daxter och Spyro. Kevin berättar om sina inspirationskällor och hur han gjorde för att få spelet att vara något mer än en nostalgitripp. Han delar med sig av hur han likt en gaming-MacGyver löste olika problem i spelskapandet som han i princip var själv i. Den självbeskrivna “klassens clown” pratar också om hur det var att möta och försöka tillfredsställa en betydligt större publik än den i skolan.Mot slutet teasar Kevin framtiden där han kommer byta ut kyckling mot en bacondiet i kommande brawler-spelet Pig King.Lyssna på avsnittet för att höra mer om spelets resa och Kevins one-liners!Indiespelklubben samlar FZ:s medlemmar kring ett indiespel i taget. Tillsammans spelar, diskuterar och upptäcker vi spelet genom samtal, aktiviteter, tävlingar och annat innehåll.

Xbox Showcase 2026: Somehow...Exclusives Returned... The Xbox Games Showcase 2026 brought a packed lineup of announcements, including the reveal of Persona 6, a new look at Fable, more details on Gears of War: E-Day, and the surprise return of Spyro. Microsoft also continued to showcase its evolving strategy of bringing more of its games beyond the Xbox ecosystem, while also announcing console exclusives... What does it mean to be an Xbox exclusive in 2026? As Xbox expands its reach across multiple platforms, fans and industry analysts remain divided. Some see the move as a smart business decision that puts games in front of more players and grows major franchises. Others argue that exclusives are a key part of a platform's identity and that moving away from them could weaken the value of owning an Xbox console. In this episode, we break down the biggest announcements from the showcase, discuss what stood out, what was missing, and examine the growing shift toward a multi-platform future. Are console exclusives becoming a thing of the past, or do they still play a critical role in the gaming industry? Tune in as we explore the announcements, the reactions, and the future of Xbox in a gaming landscape where the lines between platforms continue to blur. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Stewart Copeland needs no introduction. But we'll do one just for funsies. He started playing the drums when he was 12 years old joined the band Curved air in 1974 then started the band the Police in 1977 which went on to sell over 75 million albums, win 6 grammy awards be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame and be one of the biggest bands in the world. After the Police he started work as a composer creating film scores for Francis Ford Coppola and Oliver Stone. Then he started scoring video games like Spyro. Over the last two years he's been traveling the world telling stories on a spoken word tour called "Have I said Too Much." We condensed about 50 years of absolutely legendary work into three sentences. There are about 5 million other things that could be listed. But Stewart is coming to Florida and before he does he was nice enough to stop by the show! Doc and Stew talk about how the tour compares to his biography, how he structures his show, what kinds of questions the audience asks, recording synchronicity, Sting's musical ability, working with Francis Ford Coppola, stealing a joint from Paul McCartney, creating Oysterhead with Les Claypool and so much more! Meanwhile on the rest of the show Doc draws a deep line in the sand. If you have more than 2 syllables in your name and refuse to be called a nickname...you. are. wrong. Make sure to listen!

Spyro the Dragon has been found! A long lost giant Spyro statue from Sony's 2000 E3 was tucked away in an Oregon gas station, and he was located by some "urban archeologists" who happened to be big Spyro fans. There is much rejoicing on the internet. So where's Spyro 4? Or a new Skylanders? Watch the podcast episodes on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.
