This round's recommendations include: The Vision of Escaflowne Kannazuki no Miko Thunderbolt Fantasy

Baron5X is done being distracted by life so the pod returns! Asher shares the latest ShiftUp gossip which seemes to indicate I had even less to worry about when it came to a Stellar Blade sequel. Then we talk about the exciting Star Fox announcement last week.

The FRG Podcast is back for 2026, now that one of its hosts has gotten over his month-long ailment. And in our time-honored tradition, we take the time to review the Game Awards...from 5 years go. Why? To see how that year's nominees and winners held up against time. Did they make a splash and then wash away in obscurity? Or did they remain as staples in video game culture and iconography? We might not be qualified to answer any of that,t but we have no shame.

Lucky Episode 13 of the year, and our final podcast of the year. Today we go over some of the stories - cough cough controversies - that have sprouted from the 2025 Game Awards the week prior. Games winning too much? Studios caught red handed with their hand in the AI cookie jar? Another damn hero shooter?! Gacha games winning things!? Tune in!

Today on the show we review a varity of game announcements and previews offered up over the weekend of the Tokyo Game Show. We also get into it a little over what a rouge-lite / rouge-like is and if it's gonna ruin Metroidvanias...

Ever wondered what happens when you mix post-workout soreness with passionate gaming discussions? Well I never did so if you did that's weird but no shame.
