IP317: Get Stressed Feb 28, 2017

Show notes

Breakdown:

This week, the team is down one Tony (unless you watch Bonus Content) so we decide to sink in, get familiar with each other, and have some fun.
We have a lot coming to the website very soon! Stay tuned to IrrationalPassions.com for our new logo, new website design, and many, many new things. Especially come PAX East 2017!
This week we catch up with Scott in Dishonored 2, talk about what’s wrong with Nioh and what’s right with Tales of Berseria, and wrap up all our games like Yakuza 0 and Gravity Rush 2 in preparation of Switch, Zelda, and Horizon.
We jump right into games and COMPLETELY FORGET about the Shadow of Mordor sequel. So that’s happening. But we talk about Switch directs, Nindies, and the first impressions of Zelda and final impressions of Horizon.
We jump into questions and talk about Nabeshin playing Tales, and Tony having fun with all our friends. SilverPR catches us up on his life.
We close the show with bets. Plenty of fun video coming this week!

IP316: Yusei, I Say, We All Say Fudo Feb 22, 2017

Show notes

Breakdown:

It’s PODCAST TIME you guys! Griffin Guccione is here, and he wants to party!
PAX is coming up in a few weeks, and if you’re gonna be in the EAST you should come say hi! We’ll be hanging out, taking hugs, writing previews, and drinking a ton!
The website is being updated soon! Stay tuned, but keep that in mind as you visit the page!
This week we have a bunch of games to get through, but luckily not as many as before. We discuss the ups and downs of Nioh, check back in on Tales of Berseria, and Nabeshin tells us just how good Yakuza is.
In news, Steam Greenlight is no more, some Switches get stolen, Zelda is getting a season pass, and Microsoft has a lot going on.
We get a ton of questions this week, which is always appreciated. Something about Taco Bell? Probably.
We wrap the show with goodbyes and Bets, and that’s it!!!

IP315: I Went to the Grocery Store... Feb 15, 2017

Show notes

Breakdown:

This week we are joined by Trevor Starkey, regular guest, and all around best friend.
We are going to PAX East! And there is a ton of stuff on the website! Go check it out!
We have a ton of games to talk about, like the indie collection Trevor has been visiting, a massive Dishonored 2 update, reliving Asura’s Wrath, and going back to Mass Effect.
Alex and Tony break down what works in Nioh, and Alex finishes Resident Evil VII and gets way into Tales of Berseria.
In news, the world is ending because we all don’t like Fallout 4. Not really, but Bethesda did well, Castlevania is getting a TV show, and Destiny 2 confounds us with possibilities. And more news!
We get some tweets, think about life...
AND THEN IT’S TIME FOR BETS.
