Final Fantasy XVI Review
[I’m not sure which of the two disclaimers to start with so I’m just go with this one: nothing in this review says you have to dislike something you like. No disagreement about the quality of something encourages or invites you to get mad, you can just shake your head and move on.][This review c...

Everything Everywhere Once A Week (9/01/2023)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week.The discourse is genuinely pretty rancid this week and it was one of the few times where I was hoping Twitter or X or whatever the hell they call it now actua...

Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week.

Everything Everywhere Once A Week (8/11/2023)
Hi! This is normally where the newsletter would be, but it takes a small backseat for this week and next week as I, you know, get married and stuff. We'll be back after that to cover whatever needs to be covered.On a side note, that FFXVI review is still in progress and, uh,yeah
Everything Everywhere Once a Week (8/04/2023)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week. This may be the most old man thing I’ll ever say, but is it me or are there just fewer types of candy bars at the fronts of grocery stores these days? Like...
Everything Everywhere Once A Week (7/28/23)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week. I’ve been playing a lot of Final Fantasy XVI recently and, well, I’ll finish that game before I give final thoughts but man do the first 8 hours of that ...
Everything Everywhere Once A Week (7/21/23)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week.

Everything Everywhere Once A Week (7/14/2023)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week. Apologies for the really scattered cadence lately. Turns out planning a wedding, shipping a game, and writing a book all simultaneously tends to just eat up ...

Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week. We took a little time off, to get sick and get better, but we’re back to start discussing video games again. And I suppose, after finishing Zelda, start ac...

Wow, we're back! We've gone to Summer Game Fest, gotten sick (unrelated), gotten better (related), and played some video games in the meantime! This week, Imran is joined by Natalie, Nerium, and Michael Higham to talk about going to Los Angeles for what used to be E3 and now isn't, the r...
Everything Everywhere Once A Week (6/02/2023)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week.

Materia Possessions - Episode 14: Top Tiers of the Kingdom
We're back because we were really busy playing Tears of the Kingdom!Considering that really all we've been doing the last few weeks is playing the new Legend of Zelda game, it makes sense this week's episode will be primarily focused on that. GameSpot's Michael Higham, Fanbyte's ...
Everything Everywhere Once A Week (5/12/2023)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week.

Everything Everywhere Once A Week (5/05/2023)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week. It’s Cinco de Mayo, which a lot of people use as an excuse to pack bars and pretend there’s a reason for it. It always kind of struck me as odd when we c...

Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week. This week, we’re going to cover the general news, but I’ll also start with a review of the Super Mario Bros. movie. Yes, let’s all jump back into a Chr...
Everything Everywhere Once A Week (3/31/2023)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week. I expected that I’d do an “E3 Edition” of this newsletter eventually — presumably around, you know, E3 — but it seems we’re getting into it far e...
Materia Possessions 11 - Total Recall
This week, a slightly smaller crew gets together because the universe has decided that Andrea and Natalie can never be on the same podcast. Natalie soldiers on despite this, though, and joins Imran and Michael Higham to talk hands-on impressions of Tekken 8 (in a segment we like to call Talkin' ...

Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about the goings on in the video game industry over the last week. We’re a day later than usual today because I wanted to write about GDC, the game developer’s conference, but that meant having to actually attend GDC thr...
Everything Everywhere Once A Week (3/17/2023)
Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a weekly newsletter about everything that’s happened in the video game industry this past week. Well, usually, but not a lot has actually happened this past week solely in games. Those that did are also kind of bummers! So this week, I’m go...

This week, John, Andrea, and Nerium listen to Imran recount his food crimes in pursuit of a Diablo IV beta code. We also talk about Sons of the Forest, Final Fantasy Theatrhythm, Octopath Traveler II, and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Is it a very easy Soulslike or a very difficult one? Or does the game ...

Hello and welcome to Everything Everywhere Once A Week, a newsletter driven by your Patreon contributions. This week, I’m writing the newsletter from Atlanta, Georgia while I do research on a book about Yoko Taro’s Nier and Nier Automata titles for Press Run Publishing. That book should, in theo...
Like A Dragon: Ishin!
It used to simply be a fact of the video game industry that not every title would make it over from Japan. I would flip through the Game Players magazines or Next-Generation or what have you and oggle their import pages with simultaneous wonder and bafflement. There would be so many games that just ...
