You don’t get a new Remedy video game all that often, but Rob, Patrick, and Janet have all played Control Resonant and…well, you should just listen to the podcast. Elsewhere on Remap Radio this week, we’ve got [checks notes] a ton of bummer news, including several studios shutting down, IGN laying off even more people, a truly perplexing story about a studio head’s comments on crunch, and more. At least Chia’s back from Japan and playing Perfect Tides!Links: Moss Dev Shuts Down, Heart Machine goes through Layoffs, Rockstar Union had a Mole in their Discord, Wardogs Dev won't hire people who have been vocally anti-crunch, Nighthawks Categorized as Adult Content by Steam, The Future of MarathonDiscussed: 00:02:33 - Unfortunately we must discuss the horrors 00:04:49 - IGN/Indie Studios Layoffs and Closures 00:44:24 - Wardogs CEO talks crunch 01:16:36 - Rockstar deployed union mole 01:25:00 - Nighthawks marked as adult content by Steam moderation 01:32:03 - The Future of Marathon 01:41:49 - Control Resonant See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
The 13th of September will no longer be known as a Chicago holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice, we will not go quietly into the night. We will not vanish without a fight. We're going to live on. We're going to survive. Today, friends, The Bears Are Back! Join Rob and Patrick for a Sports! mini-pod—seriously, it’s only 20 minutes—about the Bears pulverizing the Panthers. Our hope is to deliver one of these every week (unless we’re already doing a normal Sports!). Library-tier subscribers will get access to them ASAP, while everyone else can hear our thoughts on Saturdays…right before the NFL kicks off again!

Bruno Dias joins the crew to talk about his review of The Sinking City 2 and Lovecraft as author versus Lovecraft as brand. Then the gang gets into our glorious era of privacy annihilating personal technology and engages in a philosophical exploration of Siri Recap and when an audio file ceases to be an audio file. We discuss Kojima's announcement with Microsoft, and what it implies about Sony's relationship to big AAA prestige pieces and creators. You know, things like Wolverine from Insomniac, which Patrick has been playing a lot this last week. It's not great, bub! Then Bruno has been digging into 1000 Hells and Blood of Dawnwallker. If you ever wanted to hear about different ways voice lines and barks are handled at studios, this is the episode for you, because Bruno has spent time in those mines.00:01:18 - Sinking City 2 00:59:44 - TCL’s TV Review Press List 01:28:13 - Hockey Commentator reveals that EA is testing AI voice acting for EA Sports 01:40:54 - 1900 Blizzard Employees Unionize 01:52:22 - Microsoft acquires Kojima Production’s PHYSINT after Sony drops it 02:16:01 - Insomniac’s Wolverine Woes 02:45:57 - 1000 Hells 02:51:49 - Blood of Dawnwalker 03:04:00 - Star Wars Zero Company See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Hey everyone look at this guy. He doesn't know who Miyamoto Musashi is. He doesn't even know about Ganryu! If you mention the Five Rings, he thinks you're talking about Tom Brady. And yet HE was worthy of the Onimusha: Way of the Sword review code? That's fine. We're not bitter. We have other games to play, like Super Mega Baseball, First Light, or Orbitals.01:06 - The Sinking City 2 might be an Evil Within 2-like 06:02 - 80% of Bit Reactor Furloughed 18:22 - The DLSS5 Yassification Machine 38:21 - De-listed games included in Xbox’s disc to digital initiative 49:43 - Onimusha: Way of the Sword 1:22:24 - Super Mega Baseball 1:39:21 - 007: First Light 1:54:27 - Orbitals 2:09:26 - Question Bucket See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

With Grand Theft Auto VI coming later this year, though, there’s an avalanche of games coming throughout September and October. It felt like a good time to check in with Patrick, Chia, and Janet about their individual piles of shame, the games they plan to spend more time with before 2026 is over, and what games they’re looking forward to playing as the year rolls around. It’s, uh, a lot of games.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Rob and Patrick have been digging into Zero Company and discuss the things they are getting from their vastly divergent contexts for it. The gang discuss Tim Curry's passing, Playdate's tariff generosity, and the Paradox founders' taxation takes. Then Janet has been digging Perfect Tides, Baldur's Gate 3, and Blood Dungeon, while Patrick is enjoying the a return to the grimness of A Plague Tale with Resonance. 01:17 - Star Wars Zero Company (Redux) 01:03:20 - Tim Curry's passing 01:05:49 - Doublefine's independent plans 01:09:29 - Xbox Discless Pivot 01:21:44 - Playdate refunds tariff money 01:26:46 - Paradox CEO complains about wealth taxes 01:48:25 - Perfect Tides: Station to Station 02:06:32 - Baldur’s Gate 3 02:15:01 - Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy 02:35:53 - Manual Transmission Games & Rally Car School 02:56:38 - Blood Dungeon See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
So far as we know, nobody is leaking clips from this podcast, but the same can’t be said for Grand Theft Auto VI. Join Patrick, Chia, and Janet as they reminisce about how their parents treated GTA growing up, Netflix’s latest signal they don’t know what to do with video games, and plenty of games talk, including impressions of Netflix’s (impressive!) Unhinged experiment, MiO: Memories in Orbit, Rogue Voltage, Mortal Shell II, and more. Plus, in The Question Bucket, we ponder why developers disable achievements when using options to tweak a game’s difficulty.Links: GTA 6 Suffers Third Day of Leaks, Latest Video Suggests Leakers Have Access to a Build of the Game, Nightschool Shuttered by Netflix, Industry legend Warren Spector is retiring: 'I'm feeling like I've done what I set out to do', Matthew Karch Apologizes to Stella Sacco, School for Poetic Computing, Compulsion Games pulls off management buyout and separates from Xbox | exclusiveDiscussed: 00:00:00 - Intro00:12:19 - The GTA VI Leaks, the Worker's Union, and GTA Histories00:16:32 - gameworkers.square.site 00:34:31 - Night School Shuttered by Netflix 00:38:37 - Unhinged00:55:57 - Saber Interactive CEO Apologizes to Former Employee 01:05:38 - Warren Spector Retires01:09:58 - Harvey Smith starts a new company01:11:10 - Arco recoups it's development costs01:14:21 - MIO: Memories in Orbit01:24:51 - Mortal Shell 201:42:28 - Rogue Voltage01:52:21 - School for Poetic Computing01:57:28 - Compulsion Games is now Independent01:58:37 - Angel Essence02:07:02 - Pin-Crawl02:12:14 - Question Bucket See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Patrick sits down with Nicole Carpenter to discuss her article on the prisoners at Rikers prison and their access to video games. Which games are provided to them, and who gets to make that decision? They also break down the biases people carry about who should have access to games, and how that access changes the prisoners' day to day life.A Virtual Escape for Riker's Inmates by Nicole CarpenterSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
