  Episode 252: There's Talk of Toys

  Sep 29, 202658 min

  No one told me there were to be toys today! We're taking a look at a few games based on toys, though. First up, is Milestone's Hot Wheels: Infinite Rush, their follow-up to Screamer. After that, it's back to Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight for its Mayhem Mode roguelite DLC. We're also going pretty in-depth with the Master Collection version of Metal Gear Solid 4. And to top it all off, some good news coming out of Bungie. Check out the show on BlueSky @MarkersOnTheMap.

  The gaming adventure rages on! As the industry shifts and changes in front of our very eyes, it's time to do a little catching up with some positivity, namely Metroid Ravenous' announcement and a product we never saw coming. Then, it's back to business as we take a spoiler-free dive into Marvel's Wolverine, the new PS5 exclusive from Insomniac. With a packed final few months of 2026 approaching, there's no shortage of games leading to the big release in November. Check out the show on BlueSky @MarkersOnTheMap.

  Episode 249: Remake the Future

  Jun 16, 202655 min

  Sonic and Popeye, together at last. This week, we delve into the other two summer showcases: the Xbox Summer Showcase and the June 2026 Nintendo Direct. Both feature a mind-boggling number of trailers, reveals, and updates to games coming out on... most platforms, aside from a few exclusives. A lot of remakes are headed our way, including Ocarina of Time, Star Fox, Halo, and Persona 4, and a lot of brand new things are happening, namely Persona 6, Xenoblade Genesis, Clockwork Revolution, and Orbitals. It's another two excellent conferences to round out one of the best so-called "Not-E3s" that we've seen since they've begun. And, along with all this, a small discussion on that Star Fox demo! Check out the show on BlueSky @MarkersOnTheMap.

  Episode 248: Seriously Stellar Summer

  Jun 9, 20261h 7m

  We're that much closer to Evangelion Kart. This week, it's absolutely incredible how many awesome things got announced at Sony's State of Play and Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest Showcase. Among those announcements and reveals, are God of War Laufey, Stellar Blade Blood Rain, and Final Fantasy VII Revelation. And those three are just a small sample of an endless barrage of premieres, updates, and gameplay from some of the coolest things the industry has cooking up. There's Star Wars, Wolverine, Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, and even Cuphead. And, no joke, that's still just scratching the surface. Not E3 is back and it delivered.
