Bros and Consoles

Hey everyone, welcome to the Bros and Consoles podcast: a show where my co-host, Michael Pontoriero, and I talk about the video games we love and why we love them!

Hey everyone, welcome to Ready and Waiting -- our review-centric mini-series for the Bros and Consoles podcast! In the past, Michael and I may have given longer impressions of games we've finished/completed within our normal episodes, but it felt right to start breaking out the reviews into their own specific episodes to really give these games and the teams behind them the recognition they deserve. Hence, a brand new mini-series! (Kinda, haha) This episode, I review Paradise Lost, by the dev team 'PolyAmorous' and publisher 'All In! Games'. For full disclosure, a review code for the game was given to me for the PS4, and I played the game on my PS5 via backwards compatibility. Bugs mentioned in the review were experienced after the day-one patch, but may have been patched or polished if further patches have been released since March 24th, 2021. As always, feel free to reach out if you guys and gals have any questions, comments, or feedback for the show!

Hey everyone, welcome to the Solo Gaming Updates -- my quarantine mini-series for the Bros and Consoles podcast! I still wanted to put out episodes for you all while Michael and I are currently unable to record normal episodes together, so in 2021 these mini episodes will be coming out every Thursday until the normal weekly series can come back in all its gaming glory! Be on the lookout for new episodes to pop up likely in the afternoon on those days, and check my Twitter for updates (or listen to the previous episode) if there doesn't appear to be a new episode showing up on time as well. There's always exciting games coming up on the horizon as well as plenty of trophy talk to be had! ^_^ This episode, I dive into the announcements from the Square Enix Presents showcase, a PlayStation Indies spotlight, and even the reveal of the next gen PSVR controllers! Lots of cool things to talk about, as well as a whole bunch of exciting games coming out this week and into the near future! As always, feel free to reach out if you guys and gals have any questions, comments, or feedback for the show!
