Daniel gives his review of 2018 medieval game Kingdom Come Deliverance. Daniel stated while the game has a PS5 patch to make it run smoother and with higher graphical fidelity, the realism of the game’s mechanics made it a bit off putting. Having to make sure the character eats and sleeps can be a step too far in the name of realism. The combat also felt a bit too realistic where the character can barely take any damage without dying, leaving facing enemies a greater challenge than other games.
After putting down and taking a break from Kingdom Come Deliverance, Daniel began to play a much more exciting game, Hi-Fi Rush. This game has some interesting mechanics and is more of a rhythm-action game revolving around music. The game comes from Shinji Mikami, the creator behind the original Resident Evil game. Taking a step away from horror, Hi-Fi Rush is an interesting ride full of musical challenges.
Andy and Daniel discuss solar panels and give their opinions on the technology. Based on the cost and effort to set up and maintain, the guys seem uninterested in trying out the technology at this time, and will wait to see how it develops in the years to come.
Noel gives a scathing review of Keeper, a 2025 horror film set in a secluded cabin in the woods. He states that while the cinematography is great, and the acting is decently believable, the story itself felt flat. The film leaves much to be desired and what it attempts to do with the genre, has been done better in many other films.
Noel also gives his thoughts on a short indie game he beat recently, Nocturnal. Playing on the Steam Deck, Noel picked up that title for under $4 and gives a positive review, stating it was well worth the price to play.
After beating the latest game in the franchise, Noel gives a deep dive review of Resident Evil 9. His experience with the franchise brought much hype to this latest showing from Capcom. As expected, the game delivered exactly what it advertised and showed that Capcom can still make captivating games within the Resident Evil franchise. He highly recommends it to anyone who is a fan of the genre, and the franchise in general.
Andy talks about the passing of Chuck Norris, a larger than life American martial artist and actor who inspired and entertained many across the world. An important figure in the marital arts and film industry, Chuck Norris left a lasting impact on American culture and will definitely be missed.
Andy brings up a recent press conference President Donald Trump had with Japan’s Prime Minister. As usual, there is controversy surrounding President Trump and how his words and phrasing can consistently leave many shocked and surprised. The guys also discuss some of the recent events surrounding the war and America's role within it.
