CORE 489: Straight Out of Hades
Happy ten years to CORE! Plus, Beau reminds us about a Kojima credit card coming soon. Highlights from TGS like Kojima’s new horror game OD and Capcom announcements including C. Viper in SF6, Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection, Pragmata, and Onimusha: Way of the Sword. PlayStation’s State of Play brought a bag of goodies: Saros, Zero Parades for Dead Spies, Flight Simulator 2024, a Deus Ex remaster, Mega Man in Sonic Racing, Dynasty Warriors 3 Complete, Code Vein 2, Let it Die: Inferno, Chronoscript, new Pulse speakers, and Wolverine. (Which looked REALLY good.) Plus all the usual fun times at CORE.
SHARED PLAY THIS WEEK
Scott and Jon both spent time in Megabonk, which is far better than its looks suggest.
Sonic Racing CrossWorlds was played by Scott and Jon.
Hades II saw time from all of us, with Beau having already played in Early Access and a bit more today.
Borderlands 4 continued, mainly Beau.
More No Man’s Sky, though not much new to report, Beau included.
SCOTT
Plenty of Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor.
Three hours of Metal Gear Solid Delta — very Kojima.
Tried the demo for Slots & Daggers, which will be a day-one buy.
JON
Fortnite remains a regular, especially the Blitz mode.
BEAU
Skate in Early Access.
More Hollow Knight: Silksong.
Some Heroes of the Storm, though waiting on the new patch.

CORE 527: Practical Eve
03:29:12|We have Jon Show mugs in the store! Because why not? Also, what about cloud gaming in all these discussions around hardware prices? Plus, Sony says goodbye to physical media, and at the same time closes a couple stores, and took a bunch of movies away from people. Not great. XBOX will likely follow suit. CyberPunk Edge Runners S2 gets a new trailer. The full roster for Fighting Souls is upon us! We played Stellar Blade, Moonlighter 2, Titanium Court, Sea of Stars, FF7 Remake, 33 Immortals, Supermarket Sim, The Adventures of Elliot, Meccha Chameleon, Astro Bot, EverQuest Legends, Nightreign, and Star Trek Infection VR. Your emails and more!VIDEO: https://youtu.be/dbkhoF4N9k0CORE 526: The Gabe-Cube
03:10:10|Welp, the Steam Machine is here, and it's expensive as we figured it might be with the RAM wars and all. Let's break it all down, and highly discourage Canadians from getting one. :) We also talk about the big games of July, Xbox increasing prices, GTA VI costing too much, Gamestop STOPPING something good, Capcom still trolling with the Engine name, Switch 2 getting pricier too, the Summer Sale on Steam, and all the games we played this week: Resident Evil 9, Thank You For Your Application, FF7 Remake, Pragmata, Meccha Chameleon, Stellar Blade, Astro Bot, Nightreign, Overwatch, Heroes of The Storm and more. Also, Jon shares the right order to play the resident evil franchise in.CORE 525: Address The Pile

GTA6 is STILL happening this year...we think. Sunderfolk is free right now...sort of. We played more RE9, some Forza Horizon 6, Rune Dice, Librarian, Crimson Desert, Mixtape, Pokopia, Mano things in Fortnite, Stellar Blade, Surviving Mars: Relaunched, and more! Plus an email or two!
