297: Onimusha: Way of the Sword, PlayStation's Weird Year
This week's pod looks at Onimusha: Way Of The Sword, another excellent game in Capcom's banner year. I also spend a while discussing PlayStation's fumbling of their alleged console war victory via their failed multiplayer strategy, the physical game backlash, Concorde, Bluepoint, PSVR2, Hunter's Gathering, and the twin straws that broke the camels back as far as perception of the platform: kicking Hideo Kojima to the kerb, and 2026's main PlayStation release Wolverine turning out to be just okay.In the roundup: Alien Breed's anniversary, Combolands, Moomintroll, Mortal Shell II, Nighthawks, Well Dweller.Join the Patreon to support the show and get awesome extras: http://patreon.com/gaminginthewildCheck out the video about forthcoming indie releases: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfeZs8Oqk50Follow on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/gaminginthewild.comInstagram: http://instagram.com/gaminginthewildTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gaminginthewild Follow the Steam Curator page: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/43457463-Gaming-in-the-Wild-%2528unofficial%2529
