Support The Gaming Duo on Patreon for audio game reviews graded on the Kelvin Scale, plus free blog content:https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheGamingDuoDisney just confirmed a full hour-long "Deep Dive Into Kingdom Hearts" panel at D23 on August 15th and we don't think that's just a nostalgia reel.This week on The Gaming Duo, Kelvin and Rob dig deep into the speculation. Is a full hour too long for just a 25th-anniversary retrospective, or does that runtime all but guarantee new Kingdom Hearts 4 footage? Kingdom Hearts 3 got its Big Hero 6 reveal at a past D23 could history repeat itself, or is Disney saving the real news for Gamescom Opening Night Live just ten days later? We also debate whether D23 finally delivers a release window (even a vague one), how much classic Disney/Pixar world content we'll actually see given Quadratum's original, Tokyo-inspired setting, and which returning faces Luxord, Young Xehanort, or the masked figure who might be Vali from Dark Road are most likely to get fleshed out on stage. We even ask whether Kingdom Hearts 4 launching day-one on Switch 2 changes how big a showing this game needs.Plus, Square Enix's newly announced Kingdom Hearts Collection [I–III] heading to Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series consoles.Will Kingdom Hearts 4 finally get its release window? Let us know what you're hoping to see.

Another weekend of Anime Expo has come and gone, and with it came a LOT of things from all corners, a true cornucopia of styles for just about everyone: take your pick, be it green yuri with Nirvana or nice boats with School Days... yes, really, as well as plenty of manga to come later this year and next year, TRIGGER leading us on with the fourth Imaishi/Nakashima project coming soon, AnimEigo giving everyone an appetizer plate before Discotek takes over Otakon, a first look at the new Star Wars Visions project, and some info on Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2 as was always planned (ahem ahem) and the reveal of more STEEL BALL RUN coming in the fall so everyone can stop breathing down Netflix's necks. (They haven't, they're still asking for more.) And if ALL OF THAT isn't enough, the first hour of this show has plenty of pre and post AX news items worth talking about, like some classic (and modern classic) movies coming back to theaters, new projects from Madhouse, Sunrise and SHAFT, and Kasagi Lobo coming very soon, a new middleman company in AniBiz launching, BANANA FISH leaving Amazon for Netflix and with a new (made by humans) English dub, the return of an old "online" title and also the unexpected return of an old "galactic" friend via Kickstarter (link down in the description) to make this a very long show that will hold all of you over until Otakon next month.

Kelley picks up her truck and yeets it at a monster. Ryan is just going to giggle in the background while we talk about Rogue Trader. Robert nose-dived off the end into complete bonkers. All that and Matt is over the boring parts; let's go faster, go faster!  Remember, every time a Square Enix mobile game gets shut down, a dozen angels get their wings. Question of the Week How do you feel about Sony and Microsoft finally pulling the plug on physical games? Check out the show notes here! The post RPG Cast – Episode 818: “Domino’s and KFC Are Mocking You” appeared first on RPGamer.

Sony made the bone-head play recently of discontinuing physical disc production of video games starting in January 2028. So next year is the last year we may have physical DQ games. Especially with Square Enix only using Game Key Cards on the Switch 2. We have thoughts.

Eight years ago, a broken heart and a bar called Sugars turned into the GZ Chop Shop. This week, Greg, Ty, and Uly celebrate 8 years on air by diving into PlayStation's plan to kill physical games in 2028, the billion-dollar UK lawsuit that could reshape the PlayStation Store, dynamic pricing, Xbox's leadership shakeup, and a real console-wars history lesson — plus the origin story of the show itself.KEY TAKEAWAYSSony is ending physical disc production in January 2028 — every future PlayStation game will be digital-only, which strips away the one built-in price comparison consumers had against the PlayStation Store.Sony faces a UK monopoly lawsuit (reported near $2.7B) alleging the PlayStation Store's 30% commission and lack of retail competition make digital prices "excessive and unfair" — on top of an already-settled $7.85M U.S. case over lost voucher competition.Dynamic pricing is coming to PlayStation Store — the same game could cost you more or less depending on your purchase history and genre preferences, with no outside storefront to compare against once physical is gone."Owning" a digital license isn't the same as owning a game — Yakuza Zero and the Kingdom Hearts All-in-One collection have both been delisted from PS Store, and physical PS Vita purchases have a hard shutoff date looming.Xbox's leadership is in flux, and the crew digs into what that means for whoever ends up being blamed if Game Pass's economics don't hold up long-term.A real console-wars history lesson: why the Xbox 360 outsold the PS3 lifetime (and why that one-year head start matters more than people remember), and how Nintendo profits off pure brand loyalty (Labo, we're looking at you).Square Enix is moving upcoming titles to "game key cards" on Switch — a cartridge that's really just a license key, not the actual game data.8 years, 241+ episodes, zero hiatuses — the crew looks back at how a bad breakup and a bar conversation turned into a full media brand.CHAPTERS00:00 — Intro: 8 years of the Chop Shop + anniversary housekeeping01:00 — G FUEL Giveaway details (prize pack + $50 Steam Gift Card)02:00 — PlayStation's censorship baggage, revisited03:41 — Sony's billion-dollar UK monopoly lawsuit04:41 — Dynamic pricing, explained plainly06:22 — GTA 6's price tag and the industry domino effect07:03 — Digital "ownership" is a rental — the GamesRadar take that broke us11:26 — The Crew (Yakuza Zero) delisting precedent13:14 — Kingdom Hearts All-in-One quietly disappears from PS Store20:12 — How to actually protect your physical/digital library before the cutoffs hit22:57 — Xbox's "we told you so" moment29:00 — Is Microsoft trying to sell off Xbox?31:00 — Xbox 360 vs. PS3 vs. Wii — the real lifetime sales numbers41:41 — Nintendo's untouchable formula (yes, we all bought the Labo)44:52 — Days Gone, Sunset Overdrive, and games we'll never get sequels for45:26 — Square Enix's game key card move — bad news for physical Switch collectors53:54 — [Redacted for decency — you'll know it when you hear it]54:22 — 8 years of GZ Chop Shop: the actual origin story1:08:00 — The wildest guest requests we've ever landed1:14:16 — Where we want the show to go next1:19:15 — Outro + how to enter the anniversary giveaway⚡ G FUEL affiliate link

Following the podcast drop for ‘Side A,' which is available on both YouTube and RSS feeds, Player 1 vs The World's Life Is Strange fan-made show continues with the second part of this episode. The Lost Records Journal co-hosts Adnan Riaz and Adam Evalt discuss how Sony's physical disc production decision could impact Square Enix's Life Is Strange franchise, including Don't Nod Entertainment's 2015 title on the PlayStation 3.

It's a brand-new week, and that means it's time for the return of Player 1 vs The World's StrangeCast podcast! The Lost Records Journal co-hosts Adnan Riaz and Adam Evalt return for the first part of an all-new episode, with Deck Nine's Life Is Strange: Double Exposure and Life Is Strange: Reunion both taking the centre stage for this side of the podcast.

Bonus Episode #71 of BGMania: A Video Game Music Podcast. Today on the show, Bryan and Kyle explore The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, Square Enix's ambitious new HD-2D action RPG that blends real-time combat, exploration, and time-travel into an epic adventure spanning a thousand years. Throughout the episode, the duo shares their thoughts on Elliot's journey across multiple eras, the satisfying blend of action and puzzle-solving, the memorable cast of characters, and the game's beautifully crafted world as it evolves through history. They also discuss how The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales expands the possibilities of the HD-2D style beyond traditional turn-based RPGs, before closing out the conversation with a celebration of the game's outstanding soundtrack. Note: This episode was recorded before the news broke about physical discs and games going away in January 2028, so the discussion we have that stems off a side-conversation on Grand Theft Auto VI is purely coincidental, but very timely. 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.

In this episode, Chris Cochrane leads with a $200,000 Star Wars LEGO collection that exploded into lawsuits, arrests, and a YouTube crusade. Additional stories cover Summer Game Fest 2026, the first Enhanced Games where doping is allowed, an AI collar that claims to translate your dog, Microsoft’s new in-house AI coding models, an AI-industry letter urging Congress to screen synthetic DNA, and Blue Origin’s New Glenn exploding on the test stand. – Want to start a podcast?

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.

Huey, Jelle en Koos zorgen voor een verkoelende en verkwikkende editie van Einde van de Week Live. Ze hebben het in deze aflevering onder andere over de reveal van de GTA 6 cover, de officiële mededeling van PlayStation dat hun first party SP-games nu exclusief worden en de specs van de Steam Machine. Dit alles en meer zie en hoor je voorbijkomen in de Einde van de Week Live van vrijdag 19 juni 2026. Post reveal GTA 6 cover op X binnen no-time 10 miljoen keer bekeken Andere topics die in deze video voorbijkomen zijn een patent voor een nogal aparte controller van PlayStation, een toffe actie van Square Enix om Japanners te motiveren hun inkomstenbelasting op tijd in te leveren en de eerste beelden van de shooter No Law die gemaakt is met behulp van de meest recente versie van de Unreal 5 engine.

Keer terug naar een sterk verbeterd Elder Scrolls Online, waar de nieuwe content voortaan gratis is The Elder Scrolls Online is al 12 jaar lang een van de meest populaire MMO’s van het moment.

Drakengard has a reputation for being bad, unplayable, interesting and edgelordy to a certain extent, and we can confirm that some, but not all of those, are correct. Drakengard challenges the player in ways that most games don't, driving you crazy alongside the protagonist.

According to a former Square-Enix exec, the company is worried about how OLD the average Final Fantasy and JRPG fan is. Most Americans who bought Final Fantasy VII Rebirth were over 35. What they're not taking into consideration is that that audience has MONEY to spend. See also the Final Fantasy Magic: The Gathering sales. So will Square-Enix drop the middle aged men to chase Gen Z? Watch the podcast episodes on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels.  We've got the full crew in the house once again, and we've got all sorts of gaming goodies to discuss, so let's get into it... John gets things started off with a handful of RPGs that he's been digging into recently — including a couple of recent indie releases, alongside a couple of modern day entries to the genre from the veterans over at Square Enix. Randall takes over from there, and shines a little light on a semi-forgotten retro game from the legendary developers over at Treasure. Finally, Kevin closes things out with a spotlight on one of his all-time favorite competitive multiplayer games, as he revisits the original Super Mario Strikers on GameCube for the first time in ages.   Timestamps: John's RPG Bonanza  -  00:01:28 ↳  Deltarune  -  00:01:43 ↳  In Stars And Time  -  00:07:13 ↳  Dungeon Encounters  -  00:12:14 McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure  -  00:18:12 Super Mario Strikers  -  00:28:04   Thanks for taking the time to listen!  If you'd like to find us elsewhere on the Internet, you can find us at:   

Square Enix has confirmed the English voice actor for Sephiroth has been recast for Final Fantasy 7 Revelation. Plus, 007 First Light hits a new sales milestone.

The Dragon Quest 40th Anniversary livestream has come and gone, and the reaction from fans has been... mixed. After years of silence, Square Enix finally reintroduced Dragon Quest XII, but the announcement raised lots of questions. Why was the game rebuilt from the ground up? What happened during development? Could starting over actually be the best thing that ever happened to the project? Joining me this week is Darryl from Final Fantasy Union as we discuss the Dragon Quest XII reveal, Square Enix's latest financial results, Capcom's remarkable resurgence, and the development philosophies that have separated Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy for nearly forty years. We also dive into the development history of Chrono Trigger, the legacy of Yuji Horii and Hironobu Sakaguchi, and why some classic RPGs continue to resonate with new generations of players decades after their release.

Er zijn van die games die je al overweldigen voordat je überhaupt de controller hebt opgepakt. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is zo’n game. Het middendeel van Square Enix’ ambitieuze driedelige remake van het origineel uit 1997 is kolossaal van opzet, bomvol content en soms zelfs iets té veel van het goede. Toch geldt: zodra je […]

Nos encaminamos a un nuevo programa con el reto de seguir siendo diferentes, porque tú —que ya nos conocemos— también eres diferente…Como diferente es la historia de quien cruzó medio mundo para llegar a los callejones de Akihabara y rescatar mundos que nunca llegaron hasta nosotros: nuestro invitado de hoy, don Luis García Navarro, más conocido como Luis Shinyuden…El valenciano que antes de fundar su propia editorial ya había adaptado al español títulos de Final Fantasy para Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS y PlayStation 4 trabajando para Square Enix y Nintendo, dio el salto para crear Shinyuden: una editorial hispano-japonesa radicada en Ome, cerca de Tokio, especializada en editar en físico y en castellano clásicos japoneses que jamás vieron luz oficial en España. Desde Traysia —un RPG de Mega Drive inédito ahora en una edición de coleccionista impecable— hasta el mítico Zero Wing, ese shooter cuya traducción zarrapastrosa al inglés alumbró uno de los primeros memes de la historia de internet ("All your base are belong to us"), Shinyuden está construyendo un catálogo que ya suma más de cinco títulos confirmados, con joyas como Sol-Deace, Slap Fight CC y la inclasificable novela visual de 1989 Gaudí: El Viento de Barcelona, ambientada en la ciudad preolímpica…Y en cómics, con Don Víctor también viajamos al píxel y la viñeta: y repasamos algunas de las obras que mejor han captado esa fusión…Escuchar audio

This week on Nintendo Pow Block, ⁠Edward Varnell⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Corey Dirrig⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ discuss what is driving investor concern and whether this is simply short-term market reaction.Edward and Corey also discuss Nintendo's new “Choose Your Game” Switch 2 bundle, Nintendo's promise that more major first-party games are coming, and new data around early Switch 2 adoption from Tomodachi Life. They also talk about rumored Unreal Engine 5 support for Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, new Star Fox amiibo features, and how Nintendo is handling pricing, game releases, and overall momentum during the Switch 2's first year.Capcom is celebrating another record-breaking year with Resident Evil surpassing 200 million units sold, raising questions about long-term franchise dependence versus sustainable growth. Square Enix is continuing its aggressive multi-platform push with a clear focus on Switch 2 support, while Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii teases a possible reveal during the franchise's 40th anniversary livestream. Meanwhile, Sega officially steps away from its “Super Game” initiative, signaling a shift back toward traditional development strategies.They also talk a little bit about Ken Levine's comments on diminishing returns in graphics, ConcernedApe expanding Haunted Chocolatier's scope, and Moss coming to Switch and Switch 2 without VR.

In the world of PlayStation, this past week was one of mystery. For instance, the director of Uncharted: The Lost Legacy seems to be rather blatantly teasing a new Uncharted game on Instagram. But is he actually? Meanwhile, the promise of PlayStation on PC seems to have gone totally up in smoke, with the quiet removal of related iconography from the PSN. Could it be a sign of things to come? Plus, Sony's aggressive new position on the PlayStation Store continues to bear fruit, as even more games are deleted and unpublished that never belonged there to begin with. Are we finally getting the storefront we deserve? Other news this week includes intrigue surrounding an interview with Sony CEO Hiroki Totoki, changes incoming for PS5's UI, potential teases for remakes or remasters of Persona 1 and 2, the wet fart that was the Tales series' 30th anniversary, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Do you have to play the original Resident Evil trilogy on PSone to be a "real" fan, or do the remakes suffice? Why is Square Enix so hesitant to do anything with Chrono Trigger? With Capcom's Pragmata right around the corner, what are our last-minute thoughts? Is Dustin hiding his PlayStation Trophies because he's a fake gamer?
