The Gamesline Podcast returns with John, Maverick, and Jackson! John and Jackson are both playing Grasshopper Manufacture’s Romeo is a Dead Man. John also explores Arknights Endfield and older monster tamer games like Jade Cocoon and Robotrek. Jackson supplements Romeo time with 360 classics Tales of Vesperia and Final Fantasy XIII. Maverick talks about his experiences at MAGFest, the Denshattack! demo, and Skate Story and UNBEATABLE.
In the news, Konami legend Shutaro Iida passed away, Phil Spencer and Sarah Bond are out of Microsoft Gaming, EVO is fully bought by Qiddiya City-owned RTS, Bluepoint has been shuttered, and Tencent secretly funded Highguard. But that’s not all! A new .hack is coming, FireRed and LeafGreen are for sale on Switch, Nier: Automata will be continued, Xenoblade Chronicles X got a disappointing Switch 2 edition, and ArcSys made some AI generated border bullshit game.
