Forget about Concord cosplay… will there be Concord porn?… not likely

As a Millennial who likes spicy food, I feel personally attacked by Gene 🤣

More talk about the attempted assassination on Trump but it's ended with an RIP for Corey Comperatore. In all the excitement people usually forget about him. A fine display of class and grace from the Summon Sign boys. Hold your heads high Summoners.

Gene, answering your question to why the firefighter died during the shooting. We live in a fallen world, sinful acts harm people

The question about the game from your childhood it felt like no one played - for me it’s Urban Chaos: Riot Response. This was Rocksteady’s first game and it was soooo much fun. I picked it up randomly in a supermarket for like half price and I loved it so much. No idea how it holds up but at the time it was awesome. It’s why I would have loved to see them do an original IP after Arkham.

Was just wondering this myself 😅

I’m glad I listen for entertainment and not to be informed. Concord is much better than overwatch. Overwatch was really boring and I stopped playing after launch. I’ve had fun with concord and I’ll be buying 2 copies. I think the tastes in games of these guys is nothing id ever want to play most of the time so I just listen for fun. Plz don’t compare last of us 2 to Elden ring. One is a masterpiece and the other is Elden ring which isn’t playable and lacks depth.

Who was the gaming journalist Lock referred to?

Gene, how the fudge do you manage to get through so many games & work a full-time intense job, and record podcast, and enjoy a sociable life! Every week I hear you say “yea man, I literally just played through x, y & z” whilst simultaneously playing a shitload of other stuff! Tell us your secrets! AND NOW YOU ARE PLAYING DARK SOULS🤣
Drew
Appreciate Gene’s passion

I think Firewalk went the Apex route on character design. Essentially a base character and the better skins the better look. An heirloom/legendary in Apex can really change a character and make them go from pretty standard to stand out. It gives the player something to work towards or spend on. I personally like the art style it's colorful, vibrant, and the 70s/80s space aesthetic is cool. To say you don't like the characters is pretty insane to me we really only know about 3 StarChild, Lennox, and Haymar. To that extent we've gotten 4 min of them interacting. That's like turning on a TV show and seeing 3 people interact and immediately turning it off. Will this game succeed I'm not sure. Is the gameplay strong, I think. Is there potential in the plot it's a galaxy so imo yes. The $40 argument is the strongest and it remains to be seen if that will make or break it, but other than that some premature complaints imo. You might be right but it's easy to go the route y'all are going.

Gene is funny as hell. This man said C-stick clitoris.😂
Caleb Peacock
You were the one preaching the good word this ep bro!
Lockmort
God bless you, Caleb!

The first Luigi's Mansion was the best by far. 2 and 3 are like completely different games.
Caleb Peacock
Oblivion is sooo good man. It’s not just the DB quests but they also had the best thieves guild quests. ES6 will be fine as long as they nail the quests and exploration. They’ll be a ton of people who never liked Bethesda games who will clown on it, but that’s par for the course.

I have to say it every once in a while - easily the best LS intro music.
Ryan Zimm
I enjoyed the Concord beta for what it was....but I'd never pay for a game like that. It needs a campaign to go along with the MP
Shadi Haddad
I am totally in favor of 4 people on Summon Sign as a regular thing.
Jeffrey Rommel
Phew - Brad and Gene dropping the truth bombs this ep! No holds barred
Jaylen Scott
Gene looking kawaii af
Tom Gentry
I never knew I could be so attracted to Gene…….
