This week, Sean and Jonathan try to move ahead talking about silly things despite the rapid fall of Western civilization, with updates on Jonathan’s New Game Plus run of Persona 4 Golden, Sean’s thoughts on ‘something’ and Westworld, and their reactions to two weeks worth of film and gaming news, including the death of the great John Hurt and more announcements from Nintendo. And for our main topic, we give spoiler-free impressions of the incredible Gravity Rush 2, out this month on PS4. As big fans of the original game, this sequel blew our expectations out of the water, and there is a lot to break down – with a lot left to talk about when do a more spoiler-filled discussion in the future.

Enjoy!

The Weekly Stuff Podcast #173 – Nintendo Switch Event, A Series of Unfortunate Events, and more!

It’s time for another episode of The Weekly Stuff Podcast with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman, a weekly audio show that explores the worlds of film, television, and video games. You can subscribe for free in iTunes by following this link. 

The biggest story of the week was undoubtedly Nintendo’s full unveiling of their new Nintendo Switch console, which is arriving under two months from now. Sean and Jonathan break down everything from the event, including everything we know about the hardware, all the announced games, the overall presentation, and more, giving our (fairly different) thoughts on how Nintendo’s showing did or did not excite us for the upcoming launch. We also talk a little bit about some recent gaming experiences and Jonathan reviews Netflix’s outstanding adaptation of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, which debuted its first season this Friday. 

Enjoy!
