Suda51 ist mit einem neuen, absolut surrealen Game zurück. In Romeo is a Dead Man spielt ihr den toten-doch-nicht-toten Romeo- ähm, DeadMan, und das ist nur der Anfang von dieser gamegewordenen weirdness. Jess hat sich in dieses brutale und abgefahrene Abenteuer getraut.

Cette semaine, on commence par aller du côté de Sparte pour découvrir la jeunesse d'un certain Kratos. Mis en ligne surprise à l'occasion d'un «State of Play», God of War : Sons of Sparta tente un nouveau format avec une réussite pas forcément au rendez-vous. On continue avec la nouvelle folie de Suda51, Romeo is a Dead Man. Ca part dans tous les sens, c'est parfois brillant, mais ça ne tient pas très bien debout. On s'y attendait peut-être un peu. On termine avec l'iconoclaste Winnie's Hole, qui maltraite l'ourson gourmant pour un faire un rogue deckbuilder déjanté, et avec Cinicross et son dynamitage de nonogrammes en règles.Jérémie Kletzkine, dans sa chronique jeux de société, nous parle de Magazine.La campagne de financement participatif du Jiknep, c'est par ici : https://www.helloasso.com/associations/assoknep/collectes/jiknep-le-jeu-qui-n-existe-pas-enfin-chez-vousChapitres :0:00 Intro2:54 Les news30:45 Le com des coms44:38 God of War : Sons of Sparta1:03:01 La chronique jeux de société : Magazine1:08:39 Romeo is a Dead Man1:37:57 La minute culturelle1:43:57 Winnie's Hole2:02:56 CiniCross2:17:28 Et quand vous ne jouez pas, vous faites quoi ?Retrouvez toutes les chroniques de jérémie dans le podcast dédié Silence on Joue !

Much Suda about nothing! Romeo is a Dead Man ist der neueste Streich von Grasshopper Manufacture und setzt einmal mehr auf die gewohnte Mischung aus Punk-Attitüde, Kunstexperiment und durchgedrehtem Wahnsinn in Spielform. Die verschachtelte Zeitreise-Story, in der Romeo seine Julia durch verschiedene Epochen jagt, fühlt sich stellenweise wie ein spielbarer Fiebertraum an und feuert mit ungewöhnlichen Ideen nur so auf den Bildschirm. Doch nicht jeder Einfall sitzt, und zwischen Splatter, Blutfontänen und grotesken Bildern leistet sich das Spiel auch klare spielerische Rückschritte. Gerade Fans von SUDA51 bleiben am Ende mit einem bittersüßen Beigeschmack zurück, weil Romeo is a Dead Man zwar unmistakably Grasshopper ist, aber nicht ganz an die alten Höhepunkte des Studios heranreicht. Dieser Cast erscheint in Kooperation mit und bei unseren Freunden von Ink Ribbon Radio Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Romeo is a Dead Man es un videojuego muy particular que reúne mucha de las filias y fobias del Suda 51.

Romeo Is a Dead Man is de nieuwste actiegame van Goichi 'Suda51' Suda, de excentrieke Japanse gamemaker die met zijn studio Grasshopper Manufacture vooral bekend werd met killer7 en No More Heroes. Van die geëngageerde actiegames en het Suda-verse/Grasshopperverse dat daarbij hoort, is vooral Joe van Burik idolaat. Dus bespreekt hij Suda-sans nieuwste game met Donner Bakker en Jochem Visser in deze Mini-Game-aflevering van All in the Game. Romeo Is A Dead Man is vanaf 11 februari te spelen op PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S en X en Windows pc. Luister ook deze podcastaflevering waarin we over Suda51 praten met het Nederlandse gamebedrijf Engine Software, dat met hem werkt. Vragen of opmerkingen? Mail ons! Op allinthegame@bnr.nl 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 Herman en universiteit 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 De Grote Tech Show (samen met Ben van der Burg) elke woensdag dieper op in met gasten uit de techwereld.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In the midst of a fierce winter storm, we hop on the first available flight to Lospass Island and explore Suda51's infamous surrealist adventure game “Flower, Sun, and Rain”. We talk about the game's uniquely mundane structure, examine the ways it borrows from Twin Peaks and David Lynch, and recollect the game's funniest and most memorable moments.
On the latest PlayStation Access Podcast, we are thrilled to be joined by the legendary Goichi Suda!Chatting all things Romeo Is A Dead Man, the unique design philosophies behind the title, and the games that inspire Suda51.We also announce the official name of our gaming club, share our progress on Hollow Knight, and reveal the title for February!

Vous avez fait quoi pour le réveillon ? Parce que nous on est allés sur la lune, on a affronté un pillar man, coupé des trucs avec un sabre et visiblement pas tout compris à ce qu'on foutait là dans Killer is Dead, un jeu pas vraiment de Suda51, mais quand même un peu dans le SudaVerse, c'est compliqué. Heureusement, on a croisé Shambala, qui nous a tout expliqué !Bon, ça n'a pas franchement aidé, mais c'était l'occasion de le retrouver (comme tous les mois de janvier, est-ce le début d'une trend ?)Un épisode dans lequel il est question d'une agence qu'on sait pas trop ce que c'est, un personnage qu'on sait pas trop qui il est, et d'une anecdote sur le colonel Sanders.Les recos du mois : Delphine : Skate storyVincent : AbsolumShambala : Stray ChildernPaul : Darkest Dungeon
The guys take on a collaboration from the infamous Swery65 and Suda51, in Hotel Barcelona. Does it make any sense? Is it fun? Is there any sanity left for either Jason or Jake by the end?

Habt ihr euch schon einmal ausgemalt, was herauskommen würde, wenn zwei eurer Lieblings-Game Designer*innen zusammenarbeiten würden? Für viele Leute, die Fans von Gōichi Suda (Suda51) und Hidetaka Suehiro (Swery65) sind, schwirrte bestimmt schon oft diese Fantasie durch den Kopf. Was würde passieren, wenn Killer7, Deadly Premonition und The Missing in einem Projekt aufeinandertreffen würden?... hmm ..... naja, vielleicht hat sich nicht jeder ein Roguelite vorgestellt. Mit Hotel Barcelona ist die Zusammenarbeit der beiden japanischen Künstler zwar wahr geworden - aber warum ausgerechnet in einem Genre, dass ziemlich auserzählt zu sein scheint?Hagen von Gamers Global und Micha sind der Sache auf den Grund gegangen. In einer Koop-Folge, die auch dort im Feed für Abonnenten auftaucht, erzählen sie nicht nur über ihre Begeisterung für dieses Aufeinandertreffen zweier japanischer Enfant Terribles, sondern auch über die Schwachpunkte des ansonsten spannenden Projektes. Ist Hotel Barcelona ein Geheimtipp oder doch eher eine krude Indie-Randerscheinung in diesem ereignisreichen Spielenjahr?Den Beitrag auf Gamers Global findet ihr hier: https://www.gamersglobal.de/news/335192/woschca-vom-141125-suda51-swery-und-hotel-barcelona-mit-insert-moinDie IGN-Review von Micha ist hier zu finden: https://de.ign.com/hotel-barcelona/148915/review/hotel-barcelona-im-test-roguelite-blut-und-punk Hosted on Acast.
