Summary

Anime twins Tommy Dassalo and Ben Vernel are once again joined live in-studio by the grim, introspective director of the Federal Bureau of Control, Adam Knox, to talk the first two big releases of the coming video game storm that is September 2019. Remedy's terrific, if technically troubled take on surrealist sci-fi noir gets a full review, and we give our early impressions of Platinum's classic absurd anime action adventure, as well as news and a tantalising tease over the recent Nintendo Direct that we ultimately shouldn't have bothered with because there were a lot of weird ports and things. Actual talk on that next week though, we promise!

Our newest Bandcamp Premium Episode, The History of Final Fantasy, is available at https://filthycasualspod.bandcamp.com, plus our recent commentary of the 2005 Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson film Doom, is available now along with many other special extended episodes. Head over and check them out!

0:32.9	We've missed a couple of weeks here and there of visual communication with each other.
0:37.3	Name one. Oh, when I was
0:39.8	in Japan and Thailand recently and then before that when I was in Europe for six weeks. That's right
0:45.8	off the top of my head. I didn't even have to think about that. I just ran rings around you.
0:50.1	Prove it. Why on earth would you bring something like that up, Ben?
0:55.8	What point were you possibly trying to make?
0:57.8	It's time for us to dial in our foreign correspondent as he is.

1:07.0	Oh, wait a minute.
1:08.6	Ben, can you hear that?
1:10.8	That sounded like it was coming from inside the house.
1:13.9	Yeah, I think this apartment might be haunted.
1:15.9	It's got the same level of echoiness that every microphone when we record in my apartment always does.
