Hey All!
Note: We are recording this episode on Tuesday instead of our usual Wednesday due to the LSM event in Texas, so be sure to fire in your questions sooner than usual <3
Great ways to get your write-up used: Be pithy, be topical, and be insightful. Walls-of-text, posts littered with poor grammar and punctuation, etc., are promptly (though respectfully) ignored.
As this is an Xbox podcast, be sure your submission makes sense within that realm....

KnockBack is technically about anything, and we've naturally focused a great deal of our energy on video games. But there are other technologies vital to our childhoods that have nothing to do with our beloved consoles or handhelds. This episode of KnockBack is dedicated to that tech. What TVs did we grow up with? VCRs? What were our first stereo setups, and when did we finally get a Walkman? Did we have a home theater? When did computers enter the picture, and how did we interact with t...

We're in the throes of the 2023 season, and it's time once again to consult the charts. (Remember! You can play at home with us at https://www.sacredsalessaga.com; you just have to be a $5+/month Patron and connect your account to Discord.) This month, we try to make sense of an increasingly hectic situation. Hogwarts Legacy is obviously going to dominate, but how will Atomic Heart fare? How about Like A Dragon: Ishin! and Wi...

NOTE: The video version will be out shortly. Sorry for the delay!
Sony has never so much as acknowledged the existence of the British team known as Ballistic Moon, but that hasn't stopped sleuths from figuring out as far back as last summer that they're working on a PlayStation exclusive called Project Bates. But in recent days, something interesting happened: Sony kinda-sorta referred to Ballistic Moon as a first party team in a job listing, which they later amended. A...

Much as been said about gaming's most popular subscription service. While many have detracted its boons to the game development scene, Game Pass has stormed on to surpassed 25 million subscribers. At the same time, it seems Xbox has been caught talking about both sides of their mouth. In an admission to the CMA, Microsoft has stated that game sales do fall off across 12 months titles in Game Pass. While some see this as a mark of defeat, it only seems to highlight the lack of knowledge many o...

We're pleased to welcome a very special guest to this episode of Constellation: The man behind all of Last Stand's music, Ramon Narvaez (aka Colin's best friend since freshman year of college). This week, Dustin asks what our pet peeves are, and what trivial human behaviors drive us mad. Dagan discusses the ups and downs of drinking alcohol, and our various bouts with it (or lack thereof) over time in our respective lives. Ramon goes into the nerdy weeds to outline how Last Stand's soundtrack...

Hey, everyone!
It's me, Matty. We're just 10 days from the Last Stand Media event in Texas. With things quickly approaching, I have an update I wanted to share with all of you. This isn't to make things entirely about me but after speaking with the gang we thought that it's important to get the message out as soon as possible to keep things transparent. With that, here goes nothing!
Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend the event in Texas. I'll spare the details for Defining...

Episode 5 of The Last of Us' first season on HBO represents the midpoint of our adventure, and it's here that the danger continues to ratchet-up. Trapped in Kansas City and surrounded by an unfolding rebellion that saw the destruction of FEDRA in the area, Joel and Ellie must coordinate with a couple of fellow survivors in order to escape the area and continue their westward journey towards Wyoming. Join Dagan, Micah, Dustin, and Colin (that's me!) for a lengthy chat.

Welcome one, welcome all! I'm sure at the top of 2023, we didn't think any episode of this nature would be produced for DDU until the likes of Minecraft Legends, Starfield, or Redfall dropped! With the surprise release of Hi-Fi Rush, we all have happily gathered to go through the ins-and-outs of this rhythmic, charming action game. Joining for that is Lord Addict as we comb through our favorite levels, bosses, and character moments in this GOTY contender!

Welcome on in to Ben's very first mailbag episode! For those who don't know, Ben is the Associate Producer at LSM and you all had a pile of questions for him. How do parents have time to play games and still have a job? Did Ben bury any bodies when he was a mayor? Speaking of bodies, which serial killer does he think did it best? What are his biggest gaming achievements? Is Ben really the only reason LSM is still in business? Come and find out!

The brand-new Harry Potter adventure Hogwarts Legacy will very easily go down as one of 2023's best-sellers, a testament to its high quality and faithful treatment of the so-called Wizarding World. But its success is also a triumph for reason and truth, and a major defeat for the outrage machine that tried to destroy it via a distorted game of telephone. Nestled within the maelstrom is nonetheless a heck of a game, and we're eager to talk about Avalanche Software's release in-depth. Plus: Bio...

We haven't heavily discussed the Xbox-Activision deal in months following many of us being fatigued from constantly revising it. Since December, we said it would take something truly noteworthy to move it into our headline and given the current scuttlebutt across the community -- it appears now is that time. The CMA has made its stance clear that Xbox will have to relinquish plenty to get the deal done, but how much is too much for the two seeking to make a deal? With calls for divestiture an...

Welcome -- one and all! -- to another episode of our conversational podcast, Constellation. This week, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by Last Stand's duo of producers, Dustin Furman and Ben Smith. Dustin tells us the tale of how he fell in love with his wife, and wonders how and when we knew we knew we loved our significant others. Ben asks about so-called 'kid money', or the cash young people earn and spend. How did we raise funds as children and teens, and how do we feel about the ever-gr...

The fourth episode of HBO's rendition of The Last of Us is a little slower and frankly less notable than what preceded it. But that doesn't mean it isn't great television in its own right. By leaving a coastal, occupied city and entering the barren interior of the United States, Joel and Ellie open themselves up to an entirely new brand of fundamental danger: Other survivors. The so-called Infected are the least of their worries. This episode also allows the pair to explore their increas...
