In this special Premium Episode, The Filthy Boys take on one of the most important, terrifying and complicated facets of the human experience: the construction of a top 10 list. How Letterman did it night in and night out we will never know. We respond to a listener question and lay out our 10 MUST-PLAY games in this MIGHT-LISTEN episode.The reason we're releasing it on the regular feed in place of a normal episode? Basically Ben's recording fucked up, and Tommy's sick, and Adam is operating on Greenwich Mean Time. We've dropped this Premium Ep to tide you all over until next week, hope you don't mind! Send your good vibes to Tommy. Peace and love, peace and love.All of our stuff is at filthycasuals.com.au

We're over halfway through 2024, so it's time to take stock of where we've been, where it looks like we're going, and where we are right now. Where we are right now? Recording a podcast.

The others will include looking back at great games like Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth, Dragon's Dogma 2, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, Balatro and more besides, as well as looking forward to games like Metaphor: ReFantazio, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, and more besides those too. It's been a crazy year, so thank goodness there have been some fun games to talk about. Have a listen to us do that, why don't you?Patreon - every new episode ad-free and a world of bonus podcastsBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch

Something a bit special this week, as we've got a genuine world exclusive video game announcement and preview. We had to pull a lot of strings, but we've managed to land a no-holds-barred interview with video game designer Tommy Dassalo about his new game Super Dassalo Land for the Game Boy Colour. By the way, I'm writing this in sort of a silly way but this is 100% real. Tommy's been working on an honest to goodness video game and we talk to him all about it, its retro design inspirations, the process of creating it, and where does he get his ideas from. All of these hard-hitting questions and more on this week's episode of Filthy Casuals.🌏 Get Exclusive NordVPN deal here ➼ https://nordvpn.com/filthy It’s risk-free with Nord’s 30-day money-back guarantee! ✌Patreon - every new episode ad-free and a world of bonus podcastsBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch

The Year of Luigi may have been many Dark Moons ago, but the big man in green is back and his definition is high enough that Tommy's gone in to have a look at what Luigi is up to in that Mansion of his. Less high is the definition of the Dwarves in Dwarf Fortress, but still higher than they used to be, and it's been enough to entice Ben to see what they're up to in that mountain of theirs. Kinitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess is nearly out too, so we've had a look at what the demo could be up to in that games console of...its? We've got some games to play this week is what I'm saying, as well as some news out of Capcom and Sega about Crazy Taxi going massively multiplayer, Dead Rising going remaster mode and development of Resident Evil 9 going ahead. We talk about all this and more, so come have a listen to what we're up to in that podcast studio of ours.🌏 Get Exclusive NordVPN deal here ➼ https://nordvpn.com/filthy It’s risk-free with Nord’s 30-day money-back guarantee! ✌Patreon - every new episode ad-free and a world of bonus podcastsBandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch

If an Erdtree falls in the forest, but the one person around to hear it is currently rolling around non-stop, will they be able to hear it? Just one of the thought exercises we get into this week, including examining deep questions such as what would it be like if one were to remaster Yooka-Laylee already? How many demoes of Rift of the Necrodancer and Metal Slug Tactics must a man play before he has played a full game? What is Beyond Good and Evil 2? And a question as old as time: do Ben and Adam like the Elden Ring DLC Shadow of the Erdtree? Put on your round glasses and get ready to stroke your chin as you listen to another philosophical episode of Filthy Casuals.Patreon - every new episode ad-free and a world of bonus podcasts Bandcamp Premium EpisodesYouTube - including live streams and Let's PlaysTwitch
