We’re back with another episode of the Gamesline Podcast. This week, John and Rose sit down to talk about the week in games. John’s been filling out his Pokédex in Pokémon: Scarlet/Violet when he’s not been playing through Fire Emblem: Engage. Rose has been replaying Monster Hunter World, and digging into Dynasty Warriors: Origins and playing through Lorelai’s Game of the Year last year Witchspring R. She also digs a little deeper into her review of Of the Devil.

In the news, Pokémon TCG Pocket trading is a nightmare and Sony removed a single publisher from their platform in their failed attempt at cleaning up the slop from their storefront. Valve went a little further and reiterated their ban on any game that forces you to watch an ad, and it turns out the ESA announced a new conference starting next year that seems a little bit AAAA focused.

We’re back with another episode of The Gamesline Podcast. This week, John is joined by Maverick and Lorelai to talk about all the games they’ve been playing in the new year. John’s been playing Pokémon: TCG Pocket and Hey! Pikmin when both he and Maverick haven’t been digging into the endgame of Metaphor: ReFantasio. Maverick also bought himself a Steam Deck with what money he had left after dealing with the scam that is american Gachapon. Lorelai has spent her time revisiting games from earlier in the year with Dungeons of Hintenberg, part 2 of Fantasian: Neo Dimension, and a ton of Mahjong in every game that had it. In the news it looks like we’re going to get a Recettear HD, Punch-Out!! just might be dead as a franchise, and the Team Fortress 2 comic has ended.

It seems like Scott, Lorelai, and John just couldn’t stop talking about The Game Awards so we’re back with a new episode of the podcast to talk about; you guessed it, The Game Awards. When he’s not painting himself as a living Game Award, Scott’s been digging deep into Mouthwashing and Fallout: London. John’s been playing a ton of Pokémon TCG Pocket and Metaphor: ReFantazio. In her spare time when she’s not buried in Mahjong, Lorelai’s been going hard at the Dynasty Warriors: Origins demo, Virtua Fighter 5: R.E.V.O.’s Beta Test, and Path of Exile 2. She also beat Dragon Age: The Veilguard and Fantasian: Neo Dimension. In the news, when they aren’t talking about The Game Awards the crew goes over Switch 2 leaks, Aardman’s upcoming animated Pokémon project, and the horrible layoffs at Deck Nine.
