Episodes
Pray, aught. Tell us of your travels, stranger. We're returned for our forty third episode of the podcast. This one doesn't have "Defend the Podcast" in the title; I'm mixing it up. If you don't like it, figure out how to complain to me about it, and I'll consider changing it back.

It's our 4th (?!) annual Best of the Rest Awards! Every year, Ben, Joe and Jamison take some time to give some time to the games of yesteryear that may not have had their moment to shine, so what better time to go over that, than halfway through February! We've compiled seven categories to award games for their feats in Cooperative play, Boss Fights, Introductory Hour, and more! But before we begin the awards, Ben graces us with his Top 10 Games of 2021! What were your favourite titles of the...

Well. We spent the last year talking about the build up of these two games SO MUCH, that those discussions would probably account for 40% of our show over the last year. So, what better way to commemorate that love, than to honour those two games with their own episode. Here's our discussion, once-but-not-for-all, on Halo Infinite and Battlefield 2042. We recorded this early January, after much time to stew. What's your final take on these two games? Let us know!

We've all played the Outer Wilds expansion Echoes of the Eye and get into (albeit light) spoiler territory from 10:00 to 38:00. Then, Ben has played a great many games from Into the Pit, Metroid Dread, and not one, but TWO(!!) JRPGs (Scarlet Nexus and Tales of Arise), we've all played varying amounts of Inscryption, and Jamison is snacking on smaller games like Artful Escape and Sable. To wrap up we chat at length about Battlefield 2042 and... you guessed it, Halo Infinite! Again!
