1h 16m · O3C Games · 01 Dec 06:00

OFF WE GO!

Back on the plane, folks, we’re off to South Korea. Perhaps most famous for their mobile titles and MMORPGs, what other games has the land of K-Pop produced?
Dave the Diver! DJMax Respect! …Metal Slug 4?!

ALSO: Loads of top gaming chat covering the new Steam Deck OLED, Sony’s Insomniac’s Marvel’s Sony’s Spider-man 2, Fae Farm, some Evercade and Playdate updates, and a truck load more we weren’t permitted to take as carry on luggage.

Prepare for boarding!

Around the World in 80 Games - Brazil (Episode 6)

After a long flight, our plane descends, loops the outstretched arms of Christ the Redeemer as we touch down in Brazil.

What treats will South America offer on our videogames tasting menu?

Chris gets stuck into indie racer Horizon Chase Turbo, and Jonathan picks through the tabletop referencing Knights of Pen and Paper.

There’s loads more though, OF COURSE.

But, rather than spoil it here, why not give this month’s globetrotting episode a listen? We PROMISE that the episode includes: videogames; jokes that may or may not be funny; and spuriously researched facts.

ENJOY IT

Around the World in 80 Games - New Zealand (Episode 5)

We’re off to Australasia to check out the videogames of New Zealand!

Jonathan staves off ichthyic madness in Dredge, and Chris revisits Shatter, a modernised take on a the brick breaker genre.

But before any of that, OF COURSE there’s a good 45 minutes of waffle about other games we’ve been playing!

Chris has a right old moan about Starfield’s bizarre design missteps. Jonathan plays through almost the entirety of The Legend of Zelda’s formative 2D past. Chris realises that ‘scoring goals, goals, goals is what he does best’ in recent indie release Sociable Soccer. Jonathan sinks 550,000 hours into game du jour Balatro.

There’s more, naturally, but you’ll have to do a bit of the work and actually listen to the fruits of our mouths and brains to find it.

Is that alright? Yeah? GOOD.

Around the World in 80 Games - Poland (Episode 4)

POLAND!

There are so many great titles produced in Poland: Cyberpunk 2077, This War of Mine, Dead Island, Outrunners; the list goes on. which is OF COURSE why Chris spent a chunk of the month playing Teyon’s execrable Rambo: The Game. Jonathan tries a little harder with his homework, smashing through One More Level’s sublime Ghostrunner 2.

Also! Thoughts on modern games like Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, Palworld, and Playdate treat Under the Castle as well as thoughts on old games like Rez (zzz), Lumines (double zzz) and Screaming Mad George’s Paranoiascape (!!!).

Around the World in 80 Games - The Netherlands (Episode 3)

Welkom allemaal!

We’re back on our globe trotting adventure, exploring the games of the Netherlands with special focus on Guerrilla Games’ Horizon series, and Rusty Lake’s… well, Rusty Lake series.

Plus - because we’re good to you lot - Jonathan’s here to tell you all about his recent romp through Dark Souls 3 on the Steam Deck as well as Vampire Survivors copycat Halls of Torment, and Chris has some long tedious updates about his emulation setup. He’s been playing some old tosh via Wii emulation apparently?

GAMES, GAMES, and would you Adam and Eve it, MORE BLEEDIN’ GAMES.

(Bleedin’ Games Murphy? Is that a thing?)
