The Fish and the Furious

Star your engines, The Internet's Worst Gaming Podcast races back with a brand new episode! Join hosts Loki Jarson and Jo Stizzy as they give their first impressions of Forza Horizon 6. Is it better than the previous entry, or merely more of the same? Is there such a thing as a "too easy" game when it comes to racers? But first, another new release, Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight has Stizzy feeling like a mini-Caped Crusader. Is it worth $70? Just how many different Jokers are there anyway? Then, Subnautica 2 launches in early access. It's already a runaway hit, but will insulting players lead to eventual financial ruin? Do you need a gun to shoot sharks or can you just avoid them? Finally, Sony announces that Destiny 2 will end updates soon. is this merely the end of one live-service game, or are Marathon and Bungie about to be killed as well? All that plus: Ubisoft can't get out of it's own way with Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced, PlayStation+ has yet another price increase, and nobody bought Saros or Ghost of Yotei. Enjoy today!

A Fox a Dragon and a Harpy

The Internet's Worst Gaming Podcast soars into space for this latest episode! Join Hosts Loki Jarson and Jo Stizzy as they discuss Nintendo's newest Star Fox game, which is not a new game at all, but a remake of Star Fox 64! With an announcement of increasing prices, is there any real chance for the Switch 2? Why should the average gamer bother with the console? Then, Sony commits to using even more AI-assisted tools to speed up production, but after cratering sales of the PS5, plus BILLIONS wasted on Bungie and Marathon, can they even make it to the next-gen? Who even bought Saros? Finally, Ryu Ga Gotoku studios unveil their most ambitions project yet, Stranger Than Heaven. After stumbling with their last game, Yakuza 3 Kiwami, is the future of the beloved studio brighter than the Heavens or bleaker than hell? Do we really need 2 Snoop Doggs? All that, plus: Wuchang gets a new owner, Pragmata sales go past 2 million and anita sarkeesian rears her ugly head once more to ruin another game! Enjoy today!

The Pragmatic Pirates of PC Gaming

Arr, mateys! The Internet's Worst Gaming Podcast returns from the depths of Davy Jones' locker! Can you tell we're excited for another remake? Join hosts Loki Jarson and Jo Stizzy as they discuss Ubisoft's next big game: a remake of Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag. Will this modern update keep what made the series great or will Tencent's interference keep it from the heights it once had? First up, though, is some bad news about Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, as the studio that made the game closed down. (post recording update: it might come back with all new devs under a western umbrella, story still developing) Then, Capcom's latest game, Pragmata has already sold over a million units. Is this "dad space" game worth all of the hype? Is there some secret agenda behind it? Plus, former Sony exec Shuhei Yoshida spills the tea on his old employer. Was he fired or did he leave voluntarily? (post recording update: PlayStation may have implemented DRM features right after we say in this show that they didn't, story still developing) Finally, Stizzy bought a brand new desktop PC! Does this mean the podcast will go full "master race?" (probably not) It's a rum-soaked episode, enjoy now!

Loki Jarson vs Sony Playstation

The Internet's Worst Gaming podcast returns! Join hosts Loki Jarson and Jo Stizzy as the discuss the latest and greatest in gaming including: Marathon continues to struggle, while Crimson Desert continues to soar. Can game journos get anything right in this modern day? Live-service giant Fortnite finally starts to show cracks with lower player numbers and Epic Games firing 1000 people. Is this a sign that the live-service genre is finally petering out? Plus, Loki loves Life is Strange: Reunion and kinda doesn't like Resident Evil 9: Requiem. What is the future (if any) for these franchises? Finally, PlayStation announces a moronic venture to put players in Gran Turismo 7, and all they have to do is sign away their likeness rights. Does this idea, along with a new "dynamic" pricing structure in their online storefront mean yet another disaster for Sony? All this and even more in this latest episode, enjoy today!

Nvidia vs the Internet

The Internet's Worst Gaming Podcast is back in down-scaled audio! Join hosts Loki Jarson and Jo Stizzy as they cover the latest and greatest (and worst-est) in gaming news. Ubisoft, Crystal Dynamics and WB games layoff even more people. Will there be anything left of these once great studios? Nvidia shows off their new AI tech DLSS5 (deep learning super sampling) ! It was met with nearly universal hatred. Is it just another AI-laden gimmick or the future of the industry? Finally, Crimson Desert from Pearl Abyss released to critical disdain but commercial success. Is the game worth all of the hype surrounding it? Do "professional" video game journalists have an axe to grind? All this and more on this episode, enjoy today!

One Hundred of these Things

It's the Internet's Worst Gaming Podcast 100th* episode spectacular! Join hosts Loki Jarson and Jo Stizzy as they take a brief look back on what it took to make it this far and how far they still have to go. Then, crazy news in the gaming world, like: Nintendo sues the United States government! Is this the dumbest move Nintendo has ever made? Highguard officially shuts down, while Marathon launches to less than stellar numbers. Will any studio learn the live-service lesson? Sony might stop porting their games to PC. Is this because they never made any profit on there in the first place? Xbox announces a new console. Will it be an exorbitant price? Finally, Resident Evil 9: Requiem is the biggest launch in franchise history. Is the game actually any good and does retconning 30 years of history matter when you get so much critical praise? All of this and so much more on this 100th episode extravaganza! Enjoy today! (*it's actually like the 108th episode, but don't worry about that)

Who Needs CEOs Anyway

The Internet's Worst Gaming Podcast returns with news too big to fit into this headline! Join hosts Loki Jarson and Jo Stizzy as they chat about the biggest Xbox news in years: Phil Spencer's retirement. Plus, with heir-in-apparent Sarah Bond resigning, what does that mean for the future of the Xbox brand? Can new head of Xbox, Asha Sharma, turn it around for Microsoft's beleaguered gaming division, of will she stay the course? Then not to be outdone in the realm of bad decisions, PlayStation announces the closure of Bluepoint studios. Did Sony kill one of it's acquisitions over even more live-service gambles? What does this mean for the newly announced God of War trilogy remakes? All that plus whether or not Highguard was backed by Chinese conglomerate Tencent, Ubisoft fires even more people in an effort to stay afloat, and the guys go over some highlights from PlayStation's State of Play including a new Dead or Alive fighting game, a John Wick game, and Metal Gear Solid 4 being 'let free' from the PS3.
