    The Final Episode... for now

    Is this the end?! Sort of... Player Vs. Podcast is going on indefinite hiatus, but we've still got a great episode. In a fortunate throw back, we dive deep into the mysterious Return of the Obra Dinn (long time listeners may remember the demo was one of our favorite game of the week selections). We talk a little bit about Read Dead Redemption 2, Spider-Man, and No Man's Sky Next, and a lot about video game working conditions and the features arms race.  Thanks to all our supporters over the years! You never know, we may pop up on your feed from time to time when we feel the need to talk about whatever Masahiro Sakurai has been up to. Music: "Intro" by Slime Girls, "Main Theme" from Return of the Obra Dinn Follow us on Twitter at: Josh - @hitherejosh Chris @chrsreyestweets Sarah - @SarahDLowe ‏ Ruben - @DokHoliday7 ‏

    Player Vs. Podcast 59: Twenty(E)Three and Me

    E3 predictions after the biggest announcements have already come out? You know how we do. Sarah, Josh, Chris, and Ruben talk about their E3 pipe dreams as well as Cultist Simulator, Pokemon Quest, Bloodborne, and Pandemic Legacy. We're all over the map in this month's Out of Bounds! We cover BTS' chart topping new album, Avengers: Infinity War, DNA testing, and karaoke. Music: "Intro" by Slime Girls, "Oxuria Memoth" by Ralp

    Player Vs. Podcast 58: Kratos, Father of the Year

    Sarah, Chris, and Ruben kick things off with mobile games talk, some good (Florence) and some not so good (Hogwarts Mystery). Ruben gushes about God of War, eventually leading to some discussion of the rise of dedicated photo modes and capturing the perfect Kratos selfie. Out of bounds hits on Nintendo Labo (still kind of a video game), Avengers:Infinity War, and the Netflix show Aggretsuko.  Music: "Intro" by Slime Girls, "Healing" by Big Bang Boom, "Chased by a Running Chupacabra" by Son of a Bit!

    Player Vs. Podcast 57: Fleshy Gun Trophy Case

    With more playtime behind it, Josh, Chris, and Ruben finally talk about, y'know, hunting monsters in Monster Hunter World. We get caught up in the bullet physics of Player Unknown Battlegrounds, gush about Slay the Spire and card based genre-bending, and take shots at Final Fantasy XV while being intrigued by the Pocket Edition remake. Ever play a "historical public bathroom simulator?" Check out FGOTW The Tearoom and listen to us talk untold queer history, Twitch politics, and fleshy dick-guns. Cap it all off with discussion on Black Panther, rock climbing, and hanging out with your Pops. Music: "Intro" by Slime Girls, "Funky Element" from www.bensound.com

    Player Vs. Podcast 56: Monster Hunting (With Queer Overtones)

    We haven't played too much of it, but that doesn't stop us from talking Monster Hunter: World! Celeste gets called out as an early GOTY contender and we jump back into Horizon Zero Dawn with the Frozen Wilds DLC. Everyone has a little high school flashback with our visual novel game of the week, Butterfly Soup. Out of Bounds covers a wide range this week with talk on Devilman Crybaby, Distant Worlds, Movie Pass, and Friends at the Table. Play next episode's free game, The Tearoom.

    55: Better Late Than Never

    Sarah, Chris, and Ruben couldn't let the greatest year of video games (ever) pass by without comment. GOTY lists are so last year, but that doesn't them from giving props to Horizon Zero Dawn, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and Super Mario Odyssey. They also make resolutions to rescue PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, and NieR: Automata from the game backlog pile. In the second half, they talk Rogue One vs. The Last Jedi, Awesome Games Done Quick, and weekly livestreams from Adobe. The recommended game of the week for next time is Butterfly Soup. Music: "Intro" by Slime Girls, "AM2R Title" (modified) by Milton Guasti, and "Uplifting Pop" (modified) by Sounds Like An Earful

    Player Vs. Podcast 54: Ladies Night

    Josh, Ruben, and Sarah perform a hat trick by all playing games with a female lead. Ruben chills with his robo-pals in Horizon: Zero Dawn. Josh gets chills from the voices in his head during Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. Sarah is decidedly unchill during the jaw-clenching, finger-swiping combat in Severed. Other honorable mentions include NieR: Automata and Nex Machina. We goofed and couldn't play the FGOTW this time, but we WILL play Lost Memories Dot Net by Nina Freeman and Aaron Freedman for next time. We also binge Avatar the Last Airbender, Game of Thrones, and the graphic novel Montress in this week's Out of Bounds. Music: "Intro" by Slime Girls, "The Runaway" by Kronstudios

    Player Vs. Podcast 53: Digital Cooking Has Low Steaks

    The gang is back just in time to cover this year's leaner, meaner E3 (spoiler, Nintendo won). Josh gushes about Nier: Automata, Chris feeds on chaos in Overcooked, Sarah answers the question, "what is Magikarp good for?" in Magikarp Jump, and Ruben punishes himself with more Mass Effect: Andromeda. Everyone discusses endless gratification in Sort the Court before breaking down Wonder Woman, Master of None, Terrace House, Get Out, and 70s synth music. MUSIC: "Intro" by Slime Girls, "The Unexplained" and "You Don't Have To Walk A Begonia" by Mort Garson
