Sacred Symbols, Episode 377 | Holding Out For A Hero
🕑 Added 2025-09-19 16:00:29 +0000 UTCThe internet is alight with word that a State of Play (or perhaps even a proper so-called Showcase) is right around the corner, and with it the purported reemergence of Insomniac's Wolverine, first revealed way back in 2021 alongside Spider-Man 2 (which itself came out two years ago). Is our clawed, self-healing, and somewhat short friend about to reemerge from the shadows, perhaps with a 2026 release on PlayStation 5 in tow? We're about to find out, along with -- perhaps! -- confirmation of a Venom title, too (and presumably much more). Plus: Ghost of Yotei and Helldivers 2 find themselves sucked into recent social events, Tencent hits back at Sony over its Horizon-based lawsuit, Borderlands 4 is a technical mess for many (and Randy Pitchford won't shut up about it), Hell Is Us' director calls Silksong's surprise release "callous," and so much more. Then: Listener inquiries! Would we ever attempt something as challenging as a company Top 100 Games of All-Time list? What are some potential launch games for PlayStation 6? How does one display their physical games collection when there isn't enough room for all of it? Is Dustin about to move into the poorhouse?

Colin, Correction. Avocados From Mexico is in fact the brand name for avocados that also happen to be imported from Mexico.

The thought of Colin walking six miles through the rain like the fuckin’ shinobi he is
Bailey Callis
Rubs me a bit wrong how serious and somber last week was, and now Colin's just joking around pretending like he wasn't having an existential crisis about the show

The voice actress is the same VA from THE MEDIUM, Colin. (Cronos topic)
Jose
The voice actress for Cronos is not the same that for Returnal. Kelly Burke worked on Cronos. Jane Perry worked on Returnal. They sound nothing alike.

Why the outer wilds shade Colin that I'd say has one of the best cases for best game ever made I think it not being top ten is criminal

Only the French could whine about an indie company shadow dropping their release date. Guys, ignore them, as a British man, I can tell you with more insight; this is exactly how the French act. They are the biggest, rudest moaners.

Black Flag is my favorite assassin's creed game. But I really enjoyed Odyssey as well. If they can blend those 2. Oh man, im day 1.

RIP Charlie. Love the show and Chris staying. Keep up the good work guys.

Regarding cross gen games, there are currently only 4 exclusive PS5 games that are locked to the console: AstroBot, Demons Souls, Destruction All Stars, and Death Stranding 2. 2 of those were early in the generation, 1 is coming to PC eventually, and AstroBot makes sense being a PS5 exclusive. The rest are on PC, or you have a nicer version of a PS4 game on PS5. It absolutely is going to be a situation of "the game is available on PlayStation". I just cannot see how with so few exclusives in 5 years that haven't migrated to PC (yet) that they'll try to make a game that is truly only available on PS6. Even Physint will be on PS5. Watch.
