The Weekly Stuff Podcast #115 - Doctor Who Series 9 Premiere & Destiny: The Taken King


If you’ve been listening to this show for any length of time, you’ll know that Doctor Who is one of our two primary obsessions here. That means this is a pretty great week for the podcast, as not only did Doctor Who return for its ninth (modern) series on the BBC, but the Persona series – the object of our other primary obsession – was shown off at the Tokyo Game Show, with a new preview – and new release window – for the upcoming Persona 5. So there is a lot of excitement and enthusiasm on this week’s episode, and that’s before we even factor in Destiny: The Taken King, a new expansion that is absolutely wonderful, and very exciting to talk about.

The Weekly Stuff #114 - Reviewing Metal Gear Solid V & Super Mario Maker



After looking over the history of the Metal Gear Solid franchise on last week’s show, we dive in full with the latest installment of the franchise, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. This is one of the most acclaimed games of the year, but is it, well…any good? Sean and I aren’t exactly crazy about it, and the many, many, many problems on display with this game make for a lively, heated discussion.

With Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain the big video game release of the past week, this week’s episode dives into the history of the entire Metal Gear Solid series, as we look back on every major entry in the franchise from the original Metal Gear Solid on the PSOne all the way to Peace Walker on the PSP. If nothing else, this is an endlessly fascinating franchise, and there is plenty to discuss and debate as we take a walk down twenty years of video game memory lane.
