369 - Your Stoat Demands a Sacrifice

Fred wrapped up Astro Bot with 307 rescued Bots and took a detour into Inscryption, thinking it’d be a quick card game. 24 hours later, he finally beat it and has a lot to say.

Jake is still on Avowed and started Jedi Survivor, appreciating its Dark Souls-like combat that demands patience over button mashing.

So, there’s been a lot happening. Metro 2033 just hit its 15th anniversary, and 4A Games confirmed a new entry is on the way — though they’re taking their time, saying it’ll be “ready when it’s ready.” Expect more news in 2025. Meanwhile, Life is Strange: Double Exposure didn’t do so hot financially, but apparently Dragon Quest 3’s success softened the blow. Honestly, this might be the end of Max’s story.

In other news, the PS Portal is expanding its game library, now letting you stream over 50 PS1 and PSP titles without needing a PS5. And have you seen the new Silent Hill F trailer? It’s set in 1960s Japan and looks creepy as hell — plus it tackles some heavy themes like gender discrimination, child abuse, and graphic violence. Definitely not for the faint of heart.

Oh, and guess what? Power Wash Simulator 2 is happening, though still no VR support. Also, Space Marine III is in development, which is pretty exciting. Lastly, Jason Blundell, known for his work on Call of Duty: Black Ops and Zombies, started a new studio called Dark Outlaws Games. Curious to see what they’ll cook up.
