TMG Podcast 185 - Tom Clancy's Sekiro: Stadia Dies Twice
The TMG Podcast is coming back! Carlos, Migs, and Matthew tackle the recently announced Stadia by Google, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and Tom Clancy’s The Division 2.
What was once a weekly show will either be at the most a monthly show or back to the weekly release. It all depends on how everything goes.
Have a listen below and let us know what you think! This is just the start of the many things planned at Too Much Gaming so feedback will be greatly appreciated.
Resident Evil Requiem delivers in every way that counts. It’s terrifying when it needs to be, provides compelling characters, drops them into unforgettable settings, and keeps you on your toes with gripping combat.
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade is a technical wonder on Nintendo Switch 2. It single-handedly raised the bar on what I thought could be possible on the system, delivering a beautifully realized, engaging, and lengthy quest in the most accessible format yet without sacrificing much on the presentation side.
Code Vein 2 delivers serviceable soulslike combat and flexible builds, but its bloated systems, uninspired open world, and inconsistent performance keep it from standing out in an already crowded genre. It definitely has ambition, but many of its ideas feel more like background noise than meaningful twists, leaving the sequel competent but ultimately forgettable.
While Farming Simulator: Signature Edition hits a few bumps, I definitely enjoyed the variety of gameplay on offer, and it was fun trying to accomplish multiple tasks at once and min-max my time every day for maximum profit.
Octopath Traveler 0 is a mixed bag, with some genuinely likeable characters and engaging story arcs, alongside others that fall flat. You then have a final act that had me banging my head against the wall. Still, its satisfying combat system, strong party synergy, and striking visual style make it an enjoyable JRPG overall.
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond features fairly challenging boss encounters and a nearly flawless performance on the Switch 2, but I have never been so disappointed in a video game.
SEGA and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios put a ton of love and care into Yakuza Kiwami 2, and it runs flawlessly on Switch 2. If you’re like me and itching for a reason to take a plunge into the Yakuza universe, there’s no better time than the present.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is a solid simulator with rough edges that disrupt the flow of learning and experiencing modern flying. Those new to the world of flight simulation will be overwhelmed and frustrated. But for those well-versed in the world of aviation, you will find appreciation for what is available here, even on the PS5 version of the game.
If you can get past Once Upon A Katamari's sticky controls and a general sense of deja vu, the many time periods, customizable cousins, unique challenges, and features make even a decades-old formula feel fresh again.
Bandai Namco and HYDE, Inc. have done right by the fanbase. Everybody’s Golf Hot Shots hits a solid drive with great customization options, ten diverse 18-hole courses, 25+ characters, a plethora of Wacky Golf modes, and even online play.
Battlefield 6 is off to a solid start, as the multiplayer is an impressive offering that can provide hours of enjoyment. This is an online game that can easily satisfy any Battlefield veteran, and could seriously compete for your time and retake its space in an already crowded genre. Just don't get it mainly for its campaign.
Fans of the series will love what has been done here, as this is yet another example of how remakes can succeed without relying on over-the-top visual flair. It’s a perfect game for anyone looking to experience a classic that shaped the RPGs of today.
