Episode 213: Pokemon Sword and Shield, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Review
21/11/2019 Duration: 01h10minVideo games have an unpleasant reputation as the childish refuge of the adult unwilling to accept the responsibilities that life demands of them, of being a series of infantile fantasy worlds into which these modern Peter Pans retreat, but this week Tommy Dassalo, Ben Vernel and Adam Knox are here to reject these claims with reviews of a Pokémon game and a Star Wars game. Also some chat about a couple newsy things and the not-too-hot looking launch of Google Stadia, plus more!Listen to our new premium Bandcamp episode all about the history of Rareware, available now at https://filthycasualspod.bandcamp.com for only $1 (or more if you’d like).Subscribe the YouTube channel for Let’s Plays (including the upcoming playthrough of Until Dawn), highlights and fan videos at https://youtube.com/c/FilthyCasualsIf you’d like to support us on Patreon head to http://www.patreon.com/filthycasualspod for free weekly bonus episodes, early access to Premium Episodes, the secret Patrons Facebook Group

Episode 212: Death Stranding First Impressions
14/11/2019 Duration: 01h13minAfter an arduous trek across unforgiving wilderness and a whole lot of questionable melodrama along the way, Tommy Dassalo, Ben Vernel and Adam Knox are here to bring you their first impressions of Hideo Kojima's long awaited masterpiece(?) Death Stranding. This is a big game that seems to demand quite a lot of its players to get the full experience, so this week the boys are delivering a partial package of their first impressions of the game, along with the news of the week and a little bit of Vietnam chat courtesy of Accomplished World Traveller Benjamin Vernel. It's a long, rewarding slog with a backpack full of Filthy Casuals.Listen to our new premium Bandcamp episode all about the history of Rareware, available now at https://filthycasualspod.bandcamp.com for only $1 (or more if you’d like).Subscribe the YouTube channel for Let’s Plays (including the upcoming playthrough of Until Dawn), highlights and fan videos at https://youtube.com/c/FilthyCasualsIf you’d like to support us on Patreon h

Episode 202: Control Review, Astral Chain
05/09/2019 Duration: 01h06minAnime twins Tommy Dassalo and Ben Vernel are once again joined live in-studio by the grim, introspective director of the Federal Bureau of Control, Adam Knox, to talk the first two big releases of the coming video game storm that is September 2019. Remedy's terrific, if technically troubled take on surrealist sci-fi noir gets a full review, and we give our early impressions of Platinum's classic absurd anime action adventure, as well as news and a tantalising tease over the recent Nintendo Direct that we ultimately shouldn't have bothered with because there were a lot of weird ports and things. Actual talk on that next week though, we promise!Our newest Bandcamp Premium Episode, The History of Final Fantasy, is available at https://filthycasualspod.bandcamp.com, plus our recent commentary of the 2005 Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson film Doom, is available now along with many other special extended episodes.
