    Episode 280 - The Keighleys 2025

    It's that time of year again where Geoff Keighley emerges to dazzle and wow us with game trailers and celebrity appearances at his extravagant end-of-year show. Oh, and game awards, given that this is The Game Awards after all. Which games are walking away with all the Keighleys in hand, and which are going to cruelly miss out? Here's all our predictions for this week's show. Follow Checkpoint Chat on...

    Episode 279 - Die Hard, Man

    This week on Checkpoint Chat, games are actually being finished! After many months Sandy is finally done with Death Stranding 2 and cannot contain how much he was into its earnest b******t. Meanwhile Matty has triumphed above and below in Hades 2, which might just be a big GOTY contender going into the last weeks of the year. Follow Checkpoint Chat on...

    Episode 278 - Eyedrop Juice

    This week on Checkpoint Chat, we checked out the long-awaited return of Ryu in Ninja Gaiden 4 while avoiding the mess he's made on the walls, on the ceiling, and pretty much anywhere else you can think of. The Outer Worlds 2 is also out and reminding us that Fallout New Vegas was pretty damn good, and so is this latest Obsidian role-playing game set in capitalist space hell.

    We're back and the game releases have not stopped. This week on Checkpoint Chat we finally get around to checking out Ghost of Yotei and its compelling, yet familiar revenge tale. Matty has finally started losing hours to runs in Hades II after Hollow Knight: Silksong released him from its grasp, while Sandy has been enjoying a different kind of kart racer with Sonic Racing Crossworlds.

    Episode 276 - Good Shooties

    This week on Checkpoint Chat, we're still deep in the inset-filled catacombs while making our way through Team Cherry's Silksong, taking the fight to time itself in Hades 2, and enjoying the good "shooties" that Borderlands 4 is offering with some of the series' best action.

    Episode 275 - Silky Smooth

    This week on Checkpoint Chat it's finally happened; we've played Silksong and it's living up to all the lofty expectations its long development cycle promised. Speaking of expectations, Borderlands 4 is here and attempting to steer the franchise's ship straight again, Prince of Persia gets another great game that is hopefully not going to be overlooked, and Gears of War is... on PlayStation?
