806: PANIC BUTTON

Mike took out Jan. It's finally happened. He's become too powerful. But hey, at least we have another podcast to take our minds off of it. Inside: Impressions of Absolum and Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter, a news roundup including a giant Pokemon leak, and of course... EMAILS!

It's GOLF WEEK but we still got a bunch of games to talk about! We get together to talk about Grubb finishing Baby Steps, Bakalar finishing Cronos, Hades II continuing to wow, Consume Me teaching us all valuable lessons, Steal the Brainrot dominating the brain space of the youth, and LEGO Party definitively being a better party game than Mario Party. We also catch up on the news and hit up all of your emails!

We're back and not raptured at all! We got a whole slew of games to talk about like more Silent Hill f, Clover Pit, Ghost of Yotei, King's Quest 1, Baby Steps, Final Fantasy Tactics, Megabonk, and the biggest release: HADES II. We also chat about the EA Sale for $55 Billion, a new PS5 Pro, and more! Support us directly and get new episodes ad-free by signing up for Giant Bomb Premium at https://www.giantbomb.com/join

Jan's back! Kind of! We hit a few tech snags while recording this one, BUT that didn't stop the usual crew from coming together to tell you all about the new Skate, Silent Hill f, Megabonk, and much more. After that, all the important video game news of the week (Kojima's making... A credit card?) and your emails!

Jan's out on assignment, so BAD BOY OF GAMES MEDIA Mike Minotti is leading Grubb, Dan, and Shawn through discussions about getting knee-deep into Hollow Knight: Silksong, the recent Nintendo Direct cashing in on our nostalgia, all of your wonderful emailed topics of the week, and more!
