Walk with me here folks. Imagine a highly praised video game featuring a plumber and his hat. Now imagine a sequel to that game... That's right baby TWO PLUMBERS AND TWO HATS! PUT THE HATS RIGHT ON THE LOGO! IT'LL SELL 156 MORBILLION COPIES AND WOULD BECOME THE GREATEST VIDEO GAME OF ALL TIME! If you're confused by this little thought exercise, then why don't you give this week's episode a...

This podcast is 5% allergy talk, 94.5% rap talk, and 0.5% video game talk. Us saying we can "talk about whatever we want" finally goes into full effect in this monthly cooldown. Joseph and R deep dive into everything that's happening in the hip-hop verse including how our favorite rappers all fell off, the trepidation we have about some comebacks, and the art of the beef. If you love hip-hop you won't want to miss this one, if you don't...sorry in...

We get what might ultimately be a thrilling finale to the battle of Grayson as well as a full breakdown of how Europe shamed tf out of the U.S. during Joseph's vacation to the U.K. -------- #FKM Discord https://playerplayerpod.com/discord Websitehttp://playerplayerpod.com/ Twitterhttps://twitter.com/playerplayerpod Intro Music Provided by Aaron Millerhttps://www.instagram.com/themillerchild   Arsenehttps://twitter.com/paxarsenica R https://twitter.com/rbutnotkelly Ash "I am the night.

Joseph tackles his spoiler-free review of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth while Arsene hits up with his extremely fresh opinions on the Hades II tech test before we take a hard pivot to debating why Riku is (or is not) a cooler character than Sora in our Video Game Character tier list.   P.S. - Apologies to everyone for the scuffed audio. Arsene does this funny prank where he hears it for two hours and never says...

I'm worn down y'all. I can't even write a good description.

That is all you get." - Real Quote from Ash

This week, Ash and R stopped by to let us know what games they've played that they think very few others have played. Will you be shocked by a new title you've never heard of or will you be bored out of your mind hearing about the same ol' games you've played? Only time will tell. Actually that's super dramatic. The episode is only an hour long! You'll have your answer in less time than it takes to watch an entire movie. Isn't that crazy? You know that's the problem with you youngins...

Ahead of Joseph heading off to the YouKay we have one final conversation on how to stop Arsene's neighbor.  -------- #FKM Discord https://playerplayerpod.com/discord Websitehttp://playerplayerpod.com/ Twitterhttps://twitter.com/playerplayerpod Intro Music Provided by Aaron Millerhttps://www.instagram.com/themillerchild Josephhttps://twitter.com/th3hoopman Arsenehttps://twitter.com/paxarsenica

Honestly, the level of diversity in this week's cooldown might get us attacked for making this pod too woke. We talk about how Joseph had the solution to Arsene's desk problem all along, why someone needs to step in and ban Chinese finger traps, how Amanda almost killed Joseph, and who would come out victorious between Shrek and Wreck it Ralph. You don't wanna miss this one folks!P.S. - Anybody in the discord who says any variation of "Another Cooldown?!" can go ahead and suck my big toe. And...

This week we revisit FF7 Rebirth impressions before ranting about why bad games are bad for dozens of reasons, none of which are because they are too diverse. Like seriously, we literally ranted about black people in FF16 a year ago and now there's too much diversity? Half the games that come out these days run at 4 FPS and charge you $30 per save slot but we're boycotting games that are too diverse? What are we talking about here?Anyways, we wrap up by revisiting our old games that made a...

Not gonna lie, this cooldown is nuts! I'm not even going to give any hints or previews in the description.

We're back with another banger y'all! Xbox had a pretty nice showcase this week and Square Enix finally released the second installment of the FF7 Remake trilogy. Tune in to hear our initial impressions of Final Fantasy Rebirth, or don't. I don't care, man. It's your life. You gotta live it your own way. If listening to our podcast doesn't bring you joy, then get the heck outta here ya filthy animal. But if it does give you joy.... Oh boy, ya love to see it. It brings a tear to my eye knowing...

If you listen to this podcast that means you're too deep. You know Geoff Keighly's full government name, you know the Switch 2 was internally delayed to 2025 even though it was never announced, and you maybe you even know all the words to the Alan Wake II musical number. So how does one whose brain has been poisoned by such nice and useless video game knowledge talk with a casual? We discuss that as well as one of the best games ever (not our words), Arsene's legendary painter relative, Jury...

Folks, HoopMan sent me a video during the recording of this episode and told me it was very important to watch and share with you all so that's what I'm going to do. I'm also going to put him on blast because the video is the lamest thing I've ever seen! Some young lady working out with a personal trainer and getting frustrated during a failure set? Who cares! From Hoop's description I thought this poor girl was bawling her eyes out from being worked so hard by her trainer. I thought she...

After a two month hiatus, I have finally returned to the world of gaming. I put some hours on Baldur's Gate 3, a couple of Steam Demos, Like A Dragon Gaiden, and one mystery game...

We finally got the business update and it was...about as much as we were expecting. The sky isn't falling, Xbox is still making hardware, but the landscape seems to be changing a bit. We dive into all that was said (and all that wasn't) in this extra beefy episode!. -------- #FKM Discord https://playerplayerpod.com/discord Websitehttp://playerplayerpod.com/ Twitterhttps://twitter.com/playerplayerpod Intro Music Provided by Aaron...

Wow I can't believe Xbox is going down the drain AGAIN. This time might be for good folks. Xbox might never be the same company. Heck, we might not even have Xbox in a couple years. What does that mean for my beloved Game Pass??? Ok in all seriousness though, everybody needs to pump the brakes and slow their narrow behinds down. Stop putting all your blind faith into the people of the internet. Instead put your blind faith in Hoop and I on this week's episode of Player Player: A Video Game...
