Married with Video Games Podcast

Episode 68 - Alan Wake II

Matthew finished Alan Wake II, even managing to platinum the game, and Christina was along for the whole twisty, dark, horrifying ride. Remedy's latest game is all sorts of fantastic for so many reasons and we barely even scratch the surface.

Episode 67 - Sea of Stars

Christina played through the Kickstarted Sea of Stars that had Matt constantly looking up songs from Chrono Trigger. It's the perfect throwback and spiritual successor to that long line of RPGs and we had a ton of fun with it.

Episode 66 - Death’s Door

It's our annual spooky game podcast! While not necessarily spooky, Death's Door fits thematically. Christina had a great time playing and Matthew enjoyed watching (and actually played a bit of it when it came out in 2021).

Episode 65 - Dave the Diver

Christina dove headfirst into Dave the Diver and its scuba/fishing and restaurant management sim, and Matthew came along for the ride. This one throws a lot at you and it's definitely a lot to take in.

Episode 64 - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

It's a long one this time around, with Christina finally having beaten The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom after 100 hours. Matthew was just along for the ride. There's a lot to discuss in this episode, and heavy spoiler alert for the story towards the end of the episode!

Episode 63 - 5 Games We Can’t Wait to Play in 2023

It's another interlude episode! With Christina taking her sweet time with Tears of the Kingdom, we fill the lack of episodes by looking at five video games coming out in the second half of 2023 that we will absolutely be playing.

Episode 62 - Resident Evil 4 Remake

Matthew played through the Resident Evil 4 Remake and neither he nor Christina played the original, so there's no nostalgia lenses going into this one. That being said, it's still a solid third-person shooter!

Episode 61 - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom First Impressions

Christina has played as much Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom as possible with a toddler in the house while Matthew has been forced to sit and watch. These are our first thoughts with no spoilers about the story, but a few mild spoilers regarding items, enemies, and changes to Hyrule.

Episode 60 - Dredge

Christina played through Dredge while Matthew watched and had to deal with secondhand creepiness from this fantastic, Lovecraftian, creepy... fishing game? Yes, fishing game.

Episode 59 - Five Games We’d Like to See as TV Adaptations

Matthew and Christina are doing something different for this episode. With the success of The Last of Us on HBO, we brainstorm five different video game franchises that would make great TV adaptations, with a couple of honorary mentions.
