“Dammit, Link” cursed Zelda, “Just jump! You’ve got a bloody parachute!”. Link didn’t answer. He never did. Zelda kicked him over the edge. “Father was right”, she said.

Episode 72! This time, deKay, Kendrick and Zo discuss the fortuitously timed (for once) Sony Not-E3 Presentation and the games therein, Kendrick’s new telephone (look, we’re short of content), and Nintendo being sued because of lootboxes in Mario Kart Tour. And we played some games! Including these ones:

• Doctor Who: An Unlikely Heist/Hidden Mysteries
• Advance Wars 1+2
• The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
• Control
• Lyrica and Lyrica 2 Stars Align
• Afterimage
• Fantasy Zone Complete Collection
• Tales of Zestiria

And, for some reason, we talk about food in video games which naturally, of course, leads to books and videos about countries that no longer exist and abortion rights. We don’t make the rules. (We do make the rules).

“Welcome to Episode 71”, said the creepy man at the gate in the torn and dirty mouse suit, between puffs on his dogeared cigarette. “Enjoy your stay”.

Another episode already? Who thought that would be a good idea?

In this episode, deKay, Kendrick and Toby put their lips to their microphones and aurally kiss them with such delicious topics as Starfield being exclusive to Microsoft-related Gaming Platforms, Call of Duty on the Switch, Counterstrike 2 (already? Only seems like weeks since the last one), the Evercade EXP and! Startling observations from and/or about these actual video games! It’s like we almost know what we’re doing.

• Animal Crossing (with some BIG NEWS)
• Ori and the Blind Forest
• Metroid Fusion
• Vostok Inc
• Pikmin Bloom
• The C64 Mini
• Procession to Calvary
• Like a Dragon: Ishin

Plus other stuff like what we normally do. Listen, yes?

Yes, yes. We know the last episode was a mere shadow of a proper show. A snifter. A tease. Well, we’re back with a Real One, you lucky, lucky people.

In Episode 68, which somehow unexpectedly became a Chinese New Year Special, deKay, Toby, Orrah and Kendrick do chats about How To Speak Chinese Proper Like, Wo (like “oh-woah”) Long Fallen Dynasty (and related Chinese history), the death of Stadia, tech layoffs, AND! Games! Such as:

• Football Manager 2023
• Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus
• Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands
• Baldur’s Gate Enhanced Edition
• Animal Crossing (obviously)
• Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes
• Vampire Survivors
• Valkyrie Elysium
• Panorama Cotton
• Monster Hunter Rise
• Bayonetta 3

Plus, as you should expect from us by now, so much deviation we’re surprised we haven’t ended up on someone else’s podcast by mistake.
