Advertise on podcast: Platinum Explosion: A PlayStation Podcast

We’ve finally played some Helldivers II and are loving it, and so are the devs, with massive success. But enough about the present! We also talked about the future and when the PlayStation 6 could be released.

In this episode of Platinum Explosion, Dylan and Ashley discuss the PlayStation Portal, the success of Helldivers 2, Kojima’s game and movie, the missed opportunity of Dreams on PC, and the possibility of a Dreams remaster.

Is it the end of the console wars like we know them? Xbox might be bringing their games to PlayStation.

We break down all the news from this week’s State of Play.

An Until Dawn movie has been announced, but it seems a bit weird. Dylan talks about how good the God of War Ragnarok Valhalla DLC was and some thoughts on The Last of Us Part II Remastered.

Ding! 400 platinums for Dylan, and we discuss God of War Rangrok getting a surprise free DLC and Rise of the Ronin getting a March 2024 release date.

It’s been a long time coming, but here’s our spoilercast and review discussion for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, so beware of SPOILERS.

Not much is happening in the world of PlayStation at the moment, but we have a release date for the PS5 Slim and a report there was more Venom in the original plans for Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.

We talk about The Last of Us Part II Remastered announcement and discuss whether the online reaction around it is justified.

We talk about The Game Award nominations, the PlayStation Portal coming to Australia, and Sony delaying half its live-service games.

Ashley gives his thoughts on Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name after a few hours of playing, and we also discuss how X will no longer work with PlayStation.

Ashley has finished Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, while Dylan is still playing through the game. They give their week two thoughts on the game and also talk about the upcoming Marvel’s Wolverine game from Insomniac Games being in the same universe.
