Loot Level Chat

Back to normal this week, folks, with Mick, Steve, Lyle and Kieran chatting about a few new games, Legacy of Kain: Ascendance and Super Meat Boy 3D.
Talking about these games leads into a longer chat about legacy sequels, and the lads blast through a whole bunch of classics and not-so-classics.

Sadly we were unable to record a regular podcast this week, so please enjoy this free version of one of our Patreon-only LLC DLC episodes, where Mick, Kieran and Steve attempt to rank all the Resident Evil protagonists.
Regular scheduling will return after the Easter break! Enjoy.

In a bumper episode this week, Mick, Lyle, Kieran and (occasionally) Steve go through some of the massive franchises, companies and games that are celebrating milestones in 2026.
From Gears of War and Halo, to Pokemon, Resident Evil and the Legend of Zelda, there are some very important birthdays this year, and the lads go down a whole bunch of nostalgia holes.

This week we chat about a few things like Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug Hunt and Thomas & Friends: Wonders of Sodor, but mostly it's an Open World-themed episode and Mick talks everyone to death about Crimson Desert for a solid hour.
It's a wonder Lyle made it through - but whether you love it or hate it, it is a game that warrants discussion. For an hour. And he could have talked more.

Welcome back, everyone. It's a bit of a packed show this week, as Mick, Lyle, Kieran and Steve dig into videogame spin-offs and which ones stand out.
And while they're on the subject, Kieran gets into the cosy new Pokémon spin-off Pokopia, and Mick has some opinions on Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection.
