Jake Martin and co-host Landry Smith return after a long break to discuss the current “state of play” for gaming, including major shifts at PlayStation and Xbox, the Switch 2's early momentum, and how PC and console experiences are increasingly converging. They share frustrations with rising subscription costs and debate whether subscription models help or hurt creativity. In Landry's new segment “Let's Fix That,” they call out digital storefront “slop”—misleading, low-quality, and explicit shovelware flooding PlayStation and Nintendo shops—and suggest stronger curation and publishing limits. They wrap with what they've been playing, including Landry's praise for Xenoblade Chronicles X and Jake's surprisingly addictive time with Pokémon Pokopia.Timestamps:00:00 Intro01:48 Show Rundown and New Segment02:30 State of Play10:54 Are Game Subscriptions Worth It?14:06 PC vs Console23:14 Lets Fix That - "E-Slop"38:32 What Are Ya Playin'?38:50 Xenoblade Chronicles X44:27 Pokemon Pokopia54:48 Wrap Up and Plugs

Ondertussen moet, zoals we wel vaker meemaken, een nieuw deel in een serie pas op de plaats maken voor een iets ouders.

Een paar dagen later en een paar kiezen lichter nemen we plaats aan de podcast tafel. Maarten begon verdoofd aan SOMA maar kwam erachter dat Control beter bij zijn staat van zijn paste - al was het geen liefde op het eerste gezicht. Keez kreeg een cadeau van Nintendo en veegde daarom alles van zijn bord. We vinden elkaar deels in de laatste bespreking van Gameclub game Neon White: een gemankeerd meesterwerk? Ook duiken we het in het nieuws: Phil Spencer verlaat Xbox en Playstation sluit Bluepoint. Roerige tijden. Tot slot in de canon deze week een echte Maarten klassieker. Holy Mozes wat een hoop.

¡Muy buenas a todos, supeficientes! ¿Queréis pasarlo bien? ¿Queréis ser felices? El mundo dice: ¡NO! Y es que en esta ocasión, no tenemos ni una sola buena noticia que daros. Lo sentimos mucho, pero es lo que hay. Microsoft trae cambios importantes en Xbox, que muy posiblemente acabe llamándose "Copilot Gaming" o algo así. Sony cierra BluePoint, así porque sí. Nintendo la lía con la Nintendo Switch 2 Edition del Xenoblade Chronicles X, y con unas ROMs de Pokémon a precios locos. A ver si en el siguiente colamos aunque sea UNA buena noticia. No prometemos nada... ¡¡¡SUMERSIÓN!!!
W 942. odcinku audycji Gramy na Maxa podsumowaliśmy najnowsze premiery oraz gorące newsy z branży gier. W tym wydaniu skupiliśmy się na kilku bardzo różnorodnych tytułach – od mrocznego humoru z kotami w roli głównej, przez galaktyczną rozwałkę, aż po muzyczne hity i zmiany kadrowe na szczytach Microsoftu.Rozpoczęliśmy od rozmowy o naszych ostatnich powrotach do klasyki oraz testowaniu nowości na Nintendo Switch 2, gdzie sprawdziliśmy m.in. Xenoblade Chronicles X. Następnie zagłębiliśmy się w świat piratów w demo gry Windrows, którą porównaliśmy do Sea of Thieves i niefortunnego Skull and Bones, chwaląc jej elementy survivalowe i system ścinania drzew rodem z Valheim.Głównymi punktami programu były jednak dwie recenzje. Pierwszą z nich było Mewgenics – długo wyczekiwane dzieło Edmunda McMillena. Omówiliśmy skomplikowane mechaniki tego turowego roguelike'a, w tym hodowlę kotów, ich mutacje oraz niesamowitą ścieżkę dźwiękową, którą uznaliśmy za jedną z najlepszych ostatnich lat. Drugim ważnym tytułem było High On Life 2. Przeanalizowaliśmy zmiany w stosunku do pierwszej części, w tym nową mechanikę jazdy na deskorolce, która dodała grze wertykalności, choć mieliśmy pewne zastrzeżenia co do poziomu humoru w kontynuacji.Nie zapomnieliśmy o fanach zabawy w grupie – zrecenzowaliśmy Let's Sing 2026, oceniając zestaw utworów i funkcjonalność aplikacji na smartfony. Na koniec omówiliśmy trzęsienie ziemi w Xboxie, czyli odejście Phila Spencera i przejęcie sterów przez Ashę Sharmę, zastanawiając się, co to oznacza dla przyszłości marki.Czasówka:[00:01:15] – Przywitanie i zapowiedź głównych tematów odcinka.[00:02:00] – Wrażenia z Xenoblade Chronicles X na nowej konsoli Nintendo.[00:03:53] – Omówienie gier retro na NES oraz Mortal Kombat Legacy Collection.[00:07:24] – Prezentacja i analiza dema gry pirackiej Windrows.[00:13:06] – Rozpoczęcie segmentu o Mewgenics i analiza ścieżki dźwiękowej.[00:17:21] – Wyjaśnienie mechanik walki, mutacji oraz systemu "emerytury" kotów w Mewgenics.[00:33:50] – Recenzja High On Life 2 i dyskusja o założeniach fabularnych.[00:42:26] – Omówienie nowej mechaniki deskorolki i wertykalności rozgrywki w High On Life 2.[00:48:05] – Podsumowanie i ocena końcowa High On Life 2.[00:50:18] – Recenzja Let's Sing 2026: analiza listy utworów i modelu VIP Pass.[00:55:58] – Komentarz dotyczący zmian kadrowych w Microsoft: odejście Phila Spencera i nowa szefowa Xboxa.[00:58:51] – Zakończenie audycji i zapowiedź GnM Plus.Włączcie się i spędźcie z nami kolejny wieczór w rytmie grania — tylko w Gramy na Maxa!

This week, the Legend of Zelda series turns 40 years old! We discuss our fave entries (it's hard to narrow it down!) and what we'd like to see from Nintendo to help celebrate this momentus occasion. We also delve into the Virtual Boy, with the Online Classics physical release happening this past week. What do we think of the system, the setup, and the games? Nintendo surprised us with a few announcements last week, including a Switch 2 Edition for Xenoblade Chronicles X and new Pokémon release to look forward to. Plus, we have our usual Kirk's Corner and the games that we're playing. Enjoy the show!
In dieser Episode sprechen wir mit Holger über die neuesten Entwicklungen im Bereich der Videospiele und Küchentechnologie. Wir beginnen mit einem Test des Valensina Wabo Energy-Getränks und teilen unsere ersten Eindrücke. Anschließend gehen wir auf unsere Erfahrungen mit der Tomb Raider Collection ein, insbesondere mit Tomb Raider 3. Wir diskutieren die Herausforderungen und die unbarmherzigen Elemente des Spiels, die es im Vergleich zu seinen Vorgängern deutlich schwerer machen und plaudern über die Charme der 3D-Grafik und des Tons, der bei der Spielerfahrung eine entscheidende Rolle spielt. Die Unterhaltung wechselt schnell zu Holgers Plänen für eine neue Küche, einschließlich der Herausforderungen, die damit einhergehen, und seiner Überlegungen zu Elektrogroßgeräten. Wir erörtern die Vorzüge einer modernen Küche, die nicht nur funktional ist, sondern auch die persönlichen Bedürfnisse des Kochens berücksichtigt. Dabei kommt das Thema der verschiedenen Elektrogeräte wie Backöfen und Geschirrspüler auf, wobei Holger uns von seinen Recherchen und den Angeboten erzählt, die ihm beim Kauf zur Verfügung stehen. Darüber hinaus teilen wir Neuigkeiten über Holgers Unboxing eines neuen Nintendo Zubehörs im Virtual Boy-Style sowie die spannenden Updates zu aktuellen Nintendo-Spielen, wie dem neuen Patch für Skyrim und der Switch 2 Edition von Xenoblade Chronicles X. Während Holger eine umfassende Analyse des neuen Zubehörs präsentiert, erläutert Arne seine Erfahrungen mit VR-Spielen auf der Switch und die Effektivität von Nintendo's Virtual Reality Implementierung. Wir reflektieren auch über die aktuellen Trends in der Spieleentwicklung, insbesondere die Herausforderungen, die viele Entwickler erleben, wenn es um die Veröffentlichung ihrer Spiele geht. Dies führt zu einer Diskussion über den Einfluss von großen Unternehmen in der Branche und die Aspekte, die dazu führen, dass Teams nach einem erfolgreichen Release aufgelöst werden. Abschließend ermutigen wir unsere Zuhörer, an unserem Gewinnspiel teilzunehmen, bei dem es tolle Preise im Zusammenhang mit der dritten Staffel von „Star Trek: Strange New Worlds“ zu gewinnen gibt, und wir geben einen Überblick über die neuesten Updates in unseren eigenen Projekten. Das Gespräch ist ein lebhafter Austausch über unsere Leidenschaften, aktuellen Trends und die manchmal chaotischen aber spannenden Welt der Videospiele und Technik.

On this week's Random Encounter, we're discussing a mobile-based gacha spinoff of a beloved JRPG and a Wii U classic that has finally made its way to a modern console!Persona 5 has more than its share of spinoffs, including Persona 5 Royal, Persona 5 Strikers, Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight, and Persona 5 Tactica, and now there is a new game to add to the list: Persona 5: The Phantom X. This mobile and PC game is a full-fledged JRPG, but one with dozens of gacha mechanics in the way of a smooth gameplay experience. Was Audra able to get over these revenue traps to enjoy the solid game beneath?And then Ben is here to talk about the first 100 in RPGFan history: Xenoblade Chronicles X! This classic JRPG was released on the Wii U, where no one really played it (but to be fair, no one really played the Wii U either). But now it's available on the Nintendo Switch, so no one has an excuse not to play this spectacular early entry in the long-running, beloved Xenoblade series!

Welcome to episode 163 of the Kit & Krysta Podcast. We are getting so close to the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct and things are heating up. Today we want to talk about 10 questions Nintendo MUST answer for us to feel satisfied after this Switch 2 Direct. They haven't confirmed very much about the system so they need to clearly communicate a lot of things to us in this Direct. We will have a separate predictions video that you can look forward to next week as well and of course our big reactions on April 2. Also in this episode, we're playing Xenoblade Chronicles X! Does this game hold up 10 years later? There's also some news we want to talk about including the official timeline for Sonic. Does Sonic need a timeline? We wrap it up with questions from our lovely Patreon subscribers.

Living here in New LA, fighting villains from afar. You got to find first gear in your giant robot car. The Xenoblade saga on Switch is now complete with the inclusion of Xenoblade Chronicles X (Xenoblade Cross if you're nasty). But it's been 10 years since the original release on WiiU; has it aged well? The very idea of video games "aging well" is a concept invented by tech-capitalists so don't ask me that. Instead ask "How much of the current open-world RPG landscape do we owe to it, do the gameplay elements designed for the WiiU transpose to the Switch well, and exactly how fantastic a game is it?" All these questions and more will be answered by Kat, Nadia, Eric, and Victor on this interstellar episode of Axe of the Blood God!
