This week they went over the Lionhead studios closure, where Myles shared his personal opinions on one Peter Molyneux, and they even plumbed the depths and covered the announcement of Frogware’s foray into the insane with their next Lovecraftian title, and so much more!

MONG Podcast 113 | The Fireside Firewatch Firecast
The crew decided to take a departure from the norm this week by only covering one story each and taking that extra time to do a nice little spoilercast. Can you guess what it’s on? Probably, if not, it’s Firewatch. However! Before the Firewatch spoilercast, they covered the news of the beautifying of Knights of the Old Republic, the revival of Carmageddon, and the continued news of the Kojima-Del Toro dream team! So join us for another fun week of talking about our beloved hobby, games, and jokes. Apparently Parrapa the Rappa was on one caster’s mind!

Pneuma: Breath Of Life Review
A WHOLE NEW WORLD
Puzzle games these days seem to be centralized around the mobile marketplace. Titles like Candy Crush Saga and Bejeweled have millions of downloads because of their bright colors and simplistic gameplay. It’s been quite a while since a first-person puzzler was released to the world, or if there has been one, I haven’t noticed. So I was fortunate that Pneuma: Breath Of Life crossed my path. Deco Digital Studios did a fantastic job of creating a world that not only looks amazing, but is filled with tough yet manageable puzzles and an interestingly philosophical storyline.

MONG Podcast 112 | Should Duration Determine Price?
Have you ever picked up a game and been finished with it 3 hours? Well the MONG Podcast crew have too and that was the Thought from Nowhere this week… kinda. They went in on the question of if a game’s duration and features should determine its cost. The answers may shock you, or seem absolutely reasonable because Myles, Adam and Jordan are quite reasonable human beings. Regardless, they did cover some actual news as well. Kojima made a return to the podcast with Norman Reedus’ possible tease of a collaboration to come, Watch_Dogs 2 has been confirmed to little fanfare, Quantum Break had a bevy of news this week and Dark Souls III is getting pre-order incentives while the enemies of Dark Souls I are being made to look silly. On top of that, Bethesda has confirmed, priced, and divulged information on the Fallout 4 DLC and last, but most certainly not least, is that PlayStation VR will be on the market this Fall! If you’re not excited, you. Should. Be. Continue reading MONG Podcast 112 | Should Duration Determine Price?

On the second episode of the Flashback Arcade, Middle of Nowhere Gaming Associate Editor Esteban Cuevas (@colorwind), Associate Writer Charlie Savidge (@cnsavidge), and Executive Editor Shawn Richards (@littlebighamm) delve into the RPG classic Final Fantasy VII.

MONG Podcast 111 | Diamonds in the Rough
Everyone should be happy I’m devoted to making this look good or I would have just typed “Gone to Play Firewatch” here and left to do just that. HOWEVER! I’m in it to win it and so is everyone else on this week’s episode of the MONG Podcast! The crew goes through and covers topics from the week including the return of the Overwatch beta, the reveal of The Culling, Metal Gear Solid V’s upcoming DLC, Firewatch photos, David Gaider taking the throne and what happens when you smash two portals together while inside of them in Portal… personally, I think the computer should have crashed hard and never turned back on.
