The Weekly Stuff #135 - Talking Deadpool, Digimon Story, Fire Emblem Fates, and more!

After a week off, we return with a slew of topics, including more news on Star Trek and Batman v. Superman, a final check-in from Sean on The X-Files revival series, and more. We talk a little more about Deadpool, now that Sean has seen it as well. For the main topic, we both share some video game stories, as I go through the saga of setting up a new Wii U and give an in-depth review of one of this month’s biggest releases, Fire Emblem Fates. And then, in the middle of all that, Sean starts talking about Digimon Story Cybersleuth, and goes off on the strangest Digimon-related monologue you’ll ever hear. This is a strange episode, folks.

The Weekly Stuff #134 - Deadpool, Random Stuff, and Persona 3 The Movie #3 - Falling Down

This week starts with a barrage of topics, as we talk about the unexpected success of Deadpool, discuss recent games we’ve been playing, check in on the latest Star Trek news and the newest Batman v Superman trailer, and get off on a whole lot of tangents. But the main event this week is our third-annual check-in on the ongoing film adaptation of our all-time favorite video game, Persona 3, as my imported Blu-ray of Persona 3 The Movie #3 – Falling Down is finally here, meaning we can offer our latest review of what has quickly become a can’t-miss film series. We reviewed the first film on Episode 87, and the second film on Episode 107, and as enthusiastic as we were on those occasions, this latest installment may the most engaging one yet.

The Weekly Stuff #133 - The Witness, Gravity Rush Remastered, Smash Bros DLC, and more!

This week is a packed grab-bag style podcast, as we make up for our blizzard-related week off by covering lots of news and goings-on – including the Super Bowl and related movie trailers, Sean’s thoughts on The X-Files revival, and our reactions on the horrifying majesty of Detective Pikachu – before diving into some video game reviews, including Jonathan’s thoughts on the latest and apparently final batch of Super Smash Bros DLC, Gravity Rush Remastered for the PS4, and Sean and Jonathan’s review of indie-puzzle-hit The Witness for the PS4.
