Sacred Symbols, Episode 382 | I've Seen the Light and I'm Gaining in Height Now
Added 2025-10-25 04:13:19 +0000 UTCWith Xbox's famous ringworld officially arriving on PlayStation 5 in 2026, we can rest assured that Sony's longtime rival has finally conceded the console space for good. Halo: Campaign Evolved -- clever! -- is a ground-up remake of the smash-hit 2001 Xbox launch title, and it comes with some new bells and whistles, including fresh content and a four-player online-enabled campaign. Microsoft even trotted Halo's community manager out in a PlayStation shirt, promised all upcoming Halo content is Sony-bound, and yielded perhaps their last meaningful franchise to the competition. This gives us much to discuss! Plus: Helldivers 2 dev Arrowhead begins work on its next project, Horizon's live-action movie is slated to film next year and launch in '27, Resident Evil 0 Remake rumors are percolating, we may be waiting a while longer for Starfield's PS5 debut, Electronic Arts scores a renewed deal with the NFL to continue the Madden franchise, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Why does anyone care about Photo Mode? What's our dream PowerWash Simulator 2 DLC? Is it okay to play a game without delving into its greater meaning and themes? Will Chris ever return from New York?

I know it’s very easy to say people are too sensitive to spoilers these days but massively pointing out ‘a twist’ in the story is a pretty significant spoiler without saying anything specific about what it is. Someone like myself then spends a lot of time looking for it and without further spoiling it for anyone else, the minute a scenario started that led to it I suspected it due to this podcast reference putting me on high alert for ‘the twist’ which I don’t think I would have otherwise. Normally you’re the best pod out there for this due to playing alongside the day 1 purchasers but I’d urge you to be more cautious of any flagging of ‘twists’ moving forwards. Thanks! Signed Someone that plays too many games and listens to all your shows.

2025-11-09 00:47:06 +0000 UTCI saw turnstile in 2017 had no idea who they were. I liked them. Few years later and they were huge. Sounds like they went a little bit the way of FIDLAR. Started off off traditional punk but then went to more of a pop sound

2025-10-29 16:51:27 +0000 UTCI don’t know why this is beyond Colin to comprehend but Ghost isn’t woke because it’s a female protagonist. I don’t think anybody actually gives a crap that you play as a female other than it’s kind of funny how PlayStation games do make the next character in their stories females often. The problem is a developer and a lot of the development team is super far left in their political views that they have posted outward, especially about the Charlie Kirk assassination, and the actual voice actor publicly has announced on Twitter that she is an antifa member an extremely far left in her views. It’s just the fact that the people that are making the game have political views that are aggressively anti-American. It’s one of those separate the art from the artist kind of situations.
