Coming at you in the dog days of summer is an all new episode of Video Game Realness! Join Delvin, James, Michael and Cameron as they discuss what they’ve been playing this summer and the games that they’re hyped for this fall. Along the way the guys also discuss Re:Code Definitive Edition, the Pokemon World Championships, Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite, and more!

To wrap things up, Michael also provides a review of the upcoming Boss Fight Books release of Final Fantasy V by Chris Kohler (starts around 2:14:10, or 2:12:35 in our web player—sorry it’s being kind of screwy!). You can check out the Kickstarter here, or pre-order the book on their website here.

Show Notes:
This is what we were laughing about

The gang’s all here — finally! — and they’re discussing the Nintendo Direct from the beginning of April, the delay of Zelda on WiiU, as well as some of the other hottest Sony & Microsoft news from the last couple of weeks.

Later in the episode, Michael brings out his copy of The Metagame, so Cameron, Delvin and Michael play a quick round. Michael then offers a review of the game. To learn more, visit the website.

This week on VGRealness, the crew is all together for a JAM PACKED episode! Michael hosts (a relatively hashtag-less episode) this week and introduces a new segment, Review Corner. To kick off this new segment, he covers The Powerpuff Girls: Defenders of Townsville.

As always, the boys cover the news of the week, starting with some of the big news items out of GDC.

For the big discussion topic this week, the guys cover the similarities and differences between Japanese RPGs and Western RPGs. What are the main themes behind each and what are the things that we like and don’t like about each? Which do you prefer? Are you team JRPG or team WRPG?

To close out the episode, it’s the return of Phoenix Down — the segment where the crew talks about a game series that they want to see come back with a sequel!

DON’T FORGET! Our Smite God Pack contest closes on Wednesday March 26. See episode 33 for details.

After a one week hiatus, the boys are back to chat your ears off about PS4, Blizzcon and other news highlights.

Join Cameron, James, Michael and Delvin as they share what games of the week they’ve been playing as well. Michael gives us the T on his PS4 and shares his impressions on Killzone: Shadow Fall, Knack, Resogun and more.

Also, in this week’s episode we’re using our new microphone, so apologies for the sound levels this week (auto volume was turned on by accident). We will work it out in the coming weeks.
