Defining Duke Ultimate, Episode 29: The State of Cyberpunk 2077

The maligned RPG Cyberpunk 2077 has continued to try and crawl itself back to the pedestal of which it sat up for a long while. Failed patches, continued controversy, lies, and deceit have led to customers being angry with the heads of CD Projekt Red and it doesn't seem to be letting up. With pat...

Sacred Symbols+, Episode 113: A Little Inspiration

Many of you miss Fireside Chats, Last Stand's original podcast that ran from 2017 until 2019. Within, I interviewed all sorts of people from all walks of life, and while I still chat with folks about games, I wanted to make an exception today and expand the net a little. Welcome popular YouTuber ...

KnockBack, Episode 184: The Last Days of Summer and Back to School

The summer is all fun and games, but 'back to school' always looms on the horizon. The further we get into the dog days, the closer we get to the next grade, and it's those weeks -- usually in August, but sometimes in July or stretching into September -- that are our focus during this episod...

Sacred Symbols+, Episode 112: The Writing (and Playing) of Trigger Witch

We love our indie games here on Sacred Symbols, as you know, and I (Colin) would like to take a moment today to discuss one of them in-depth: Trigger Witch. The reasons I want to discuss this title, not surprisingly, are manifold. For starters, it's really fun. It's a twin-stick shooter abou...

Sacred Symbols, Episode 163: Liberty, Vice, and Everything Nice

These slow summer days have been suddenly interrupted by a most-tantalizing rumor: PlayStation 2's classic trilogy of Grand Theft Auto games are migrating over to PS4 and PS5, reworked and modernized (though not remade!) for a new generation. Yes, it's true that GTA 3, Vice City, and San Andreas ...

Defining Duke Ultimate, Episode 28: Back 4 Blood Beta Deep Dive

Over the weekend, we got to lay our hands on arguably Xbox's largest third party investment across Day One Game Pass titles. That game is the highly anticipated Back 4 Blood which aims to carry the Left 4 Dead torch which is sorely missing a third entry. With this void remaining present, Turtle R...

Sacred Symbols+, Episode 111: Call-In With Colin III

It's been about a month since we did a Call-In With Colin episode of Sacred Symbols+, so we figured it was high time to return to the format. On today's episode, we talk to callers from all over the godforsaken place about topics they bring to the table. If only Resistance or Killzone can return,...

Let's Plays: An Indefinite Delay

Hey!

I wanted to take a moment to write to you today to share an unfortunate piece of news: We’re indefinitely delaying (cancelling, really, but more on that later) our planned Let’s Play series.

KnockBack, Episode 183: Iron Man (2008 Film)

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is pretty much the biggest thing to ever hit cinemas, but it started innocently enough back in 2008 with Iron Man, the Jon Favreau-directed, Robert Downey Jr.-led superhero flick that's... well... pretty damn good, actually. Indeed, it only grossed half a billion dol...

Sacred Symbols prides itself on being an expert (and silly) location for games analysis, but when it comes to technology -- the actual hardware itself -- we're not quite as expert. That's why it's good to call in someone like today's special guest. Thus, we ask you to please welcome Tom from the ...

Sacred Symbols, Episode 162: Distant Horizon

The news out of Sony-owned studio Guerrilla is bad, at least if some recent rumors are true. Horizon: Forbidden West -- once promised for both PS4 and PS5 this fall -- is likely going to come out in 2022, instead. This leaves PlayStation 5 fairly barren for the rest of the year, with only the lik...
