Sacred Symbols, Episode 363 | Getting Bent

With Bend Studio laying off 30% of its staff as it gears up to enter a lengthy pre-production stage, it's clear their next release (should it ever materialize) will be on PlayStation 6. This is just the most recent example in a lengthening string of Sony absolutely botching its first party initiative, deploying teams on projects that make no sense, purchasing studios that have never even released a game, and complicating a service game strategy that -- at least on paper -- made a lot of sense...

Defining Duke, Episode 232 | The $80 Xbox Games Have ARRIVED...

The fallout of any Xbox showcase is always our favorite episodes to record as a duo! It gets us all involved and allows to pick with greater detail at whatever is on the community's mind as consuming so many trailers. Well, there's mostly one thing on Xbox fan's minds at the moment and it's if Outer Worlds 2 should be the second ever $80 game. There's no doubt about it that there are more to come, but should Call Of Duty have taken the fall? Is this price tag going to prevent The Outer Worlds...

Defining Duke, Episode 231 | A Slow Year? - Our Reactions To The Xbox Games Showcase 2025

Xbox has been the gold standard for showcases these last two years. Whether it be their summer showcases or Developer Direct, they just seem to have a death grip on the rhythm needed to put on a good show along with well timed announcements. Well, no one stays hot forever, so it was inevitable that Xbox would come down to earth at some point. The question is, when they do, where would they end up? Fortunately, it wasn't terrible! We got a deep look at The Outer Worlds 2 while Double Fine fina...

It's me, Colin! Please welcome storied designer and friend David Jaffe back to Sacred+ for yet another appearance. It's been just over two months since we last did a Moriarty x Jaffe episode, and felt like like it was time to break the dry spell. This long-ranging, often-off-topic episode touches on a ton of items, including plenty of games talk. Chatter concerning PlayStation's crumbling GaaS initiative, the ebb and flow of "convention season," Nintendo's future prospects, the potential of U...

Sacred Symbols, Episode 362 | I Do Believe You're Trying to Wake Me Up

Since we published our previous episode, Sony not only announced it was having a State of Play event, but that event has already happened. Thus, we have much to discuss throughout this lengthy episode, an unexpected surprise for the PlayStation faithful. In short, the most recent State of Play was a great showcase of nearly 30 upcoming PlayStation 5 games, with some PS4 and PSVR2 mixed in there, too. And -- for those that care -- more than a half-dozen of the games are PS5 console exclusive, ...

Sacred Symbols, Episode 361 | The Most Natural Thing, But Nothing We'd Expect

The global economy is in a tumultuous state, inflation has carved away everyone's purchasing power, and prices are almost universally going up. So naturally, PlayStation will follow suit and jack its rates up too, right? Well, no. Instead, they're doing the exact opposite of what seems natural: For their annual, weeks-long Days of Play sales event, Sony has slashed prices on PS5 and PS5 Pro, PSVR2 and DualSense, and even DualSense Edge and the Access controller. Is Sony's boldness in risking ...
