Sacred Symbols, Episode 134: Stubborn Ghosts
Added 2021-01-22 17:00:05 +0000 UTCIf we're being totally honest, Capcom's recent Resident Evil Village event was largely a waste of time, considering we could have just watched gameplay and gotten a release date without the false promise of an "event." But it was awesome to more thoroughly see the newest entry in the company's long-running survival horror franchise, and we simply cannot wait to play it. Yet, with RE8 now coming to PS4 in addition to PS5, it begs the question: When will publishers and developers more readily say goodbye to last-gen, even if it means leaving behind a whole host of potential customers? We've never seen the industry operate in cross-generational space like this, and so we've much to discuss. Plus: More tiresome Cyberpunk 2077 news emerges, Team Ninja speaks about the future of both Nioh and Ninja Gaiden, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! What's with PlayStation 5's missing entertainment apps? Is Naughty Dog about to go 'high fantasy'? Or perhaps they'll make a Punisher game instead? Is the word "callipygian" the new "thicc?"

2021-01-27 20:21:50 +0000 UTCBro I've never met anyone else that does this. I started as a young child taking apart my bacon egg and cheese biscuits layer by layer. Still do it to this day.

2021-01-23 01:28:06 +0000 UTCChris's point about high school and the American education system in general was spot on imo. My nightmares usually involve me forgetting my locker combo and I really need something important out of it for a class that I can't find hahaha

2021-01-22 20:06:08 +0000 UTCI wish I was lying about my wife's eating practices. I appreciate the feedback! It was hilarious. If you feel that the audience would like more context, ill gladly write in next week. But yes, she is a lovely lady and I knew about this before tying the knot. By the way,, she did eat the cake by layers. LOL
