Hey Allies! I've got a game! As we learned last week, the top 10 Switch titles have sold insane numbers. But can they stack up against these ENTIRE FRANCHISES? Your goal is simple. Guess whether each franchise has sold more or less than one single Switch game. For example, how does the whole Xenoblade series compete with #10 New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe's 16.2million? It's 8million LESS @ 8.2million. Persona vs. #9 Tears of the Kingdom's 18.5m (1.5m LESS @ 17m) Like a Dragon vs. #8 Super Mario Party's 19.4m (0.6m MORE @ 20m) Metroid vs. #7 Pokémon Scarlet/Violet's 22.7m (1.4m LESS @ 21.3m) Age of Empires vs. #6 Pokémon Sword/Shield's 25.9m (0.9m LESS @ 25m) Devil May Cry vs. #5 Super Mario Odyssey's 26.4m (2.6m MORE @ 29m) Horizon vs. #4 Breath of the Wild's 30.7m (2m MORE @ 32.7m) Dark Souls vs. #3 Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's 31.8m (1.6m MORE @ 33.4m) Kingdom Hearts vs. #2 Animal Crossing: New Horizons' 42.8m (6.8m LESS @ 36m) Street Fighter vs. #1 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe's 55.5m (6.5m LESS @ 49m) Other franchises that have been outsold by MK8D include Megaman, Uncharted, Crash Bandicoot, Ratchet & Clank, Gears of War, Last of Us, Forza Motorsport and Half-life. Thanks for playing, THIEF

Let’s play a game – One of these Games is NOT like the others… Greetings Allies, I assume we’ve all seen at least one episode of Sesame Street in our lives, yes? So there used to be a segment a long time called “One of these things doesn’t belong.” We’re gonna do something like that. I’m gonna list a bunch of sets of three games or series, your job is to find the odd one out. Bonus points if you know WHY they’re the odd one out, and remember, this is me you’re dealing with, the right answer might not be so obvious. Is this game gonna be good? Is it gonna suck? I dunno. I’m just writing this on the fly at 7 in the morning because I’m bored and need to keep myself entertained. I hope you like it though… Love and Respect, R.F. 1. Splatoon/Animal Crossing/Kirby (Answer: Kirby. Splatoon and Animal Crossing are made by the same development team.) 2. Double Dragon/Final Fight/Battletoads (Answer: Final Fight. Battletoads and Double Dragon were in a crossover together, Final Fight was not part of it.) 3. Resident Evil/Silent Hill/Parasite Eve (Answer: Parasite Eve. Not only is Parasite Eve an RPG with Survival Horror elements, but it was also based on a novel.) 4. Lemmings/Mario vs Donkey Kong/Pikmin (Answer: Lemmings. While all three games deal with managing multiple creatures at once, Lemmings is the only one that doesn’t have a specific character commanding or controlling them) 5. Chrono Trigger/Final Fantasy VI/Secret of Mana (Answer: Secret of Mana. It’s the only one of the three that isn’t in the Hall of Greats. You should fix that.) 6. Spider-Man/Shadow Man/Turok (Answer: Spider-Man. All three of these games are based on a comic book series, but only Spider-Man was created by a major publisher like Marvel.) 7. Doom/Hexen/Quake (Answer: Hexen. All three of them are FPS games made by id, but Hexen is specifically set in a dark fantasy world, whereas the others are sci-fi horror.) 8. Baldur’s Gate/Diablo/Path of Exile (Answer: Baldur’s Gate. While all three are isometric RPGs, in Diablo and Path of Exile you play as a singular character. Baldur’s Gate lets you recruit a party.) 9. Final Fantasy VII/Resident Evil 4/Super Mario RPG (Answer: SMRPG. All three of these games have very big remakes that have changed a lot of the mechanics and improved the overall designs….. But Super Mario RPG isn’t out until November 17th.) 10. Castlevania/Metroid/Zelda (Answer: Metroid. I bet I got Damiani and Brad with this one, but Zelda and Castlevania had side scrolling action-RPG games in the 80’s. Neither one of them would be considered “Metroidvainias.” No, seriously, Simon’s Quest isn’t a Metroidvania.)

If all videogame production stopped today and no new games ever came out, do you think you could live out the rest of your days as a satisfied gamer or would you miss the thrill (or burden) of keeping up with new game releases?

Hello Allies :) I'll keep mine simple. What's one of your fondest memories in an Elder Scrolls game and a Fallout game?

Greetings Allies! Recently, I finally beat the first Kingdom Hearts game. This might not seem like much but its been a long time coming as I was stuck on what I thought was the last boss since I was 15. It's taken me over a decade to finally come back and beat the game and I'm so happy to finally play through the rest of the series. Because of this, I wanted to ask the panel, are there any games from your childhoods that you never beat and want to one day go back to or games you couldn't beat but eventually did after going back to them as an adult?

Greetings Allies. I have come to you today to talk about BAD DECISIONS. Simply put. I have always veered towards the "evil choice" when given the option. From Revan to Shepard when I have the option, I'm selecting the most ruthless dirty dog response possible. Please note potential spoilers for the following games: Mass Effect 2, KOTOR, Batman a Telltale story My Mass Effect 2 run was infamous in my group of friends as after we were talking about our different endings we achieved as I had come to realize that I had never actually met the lovable Geth operative known as Legion. I had sold him for a paltry 50k credits and never looked back. I also shot SPOILERS Mordin SPOILERS in the back on Tuchanka, killed Wrex in cold blood in Mass Effect 3, killed Carth Onassi when he turned on my party in KOTOR, elected to have Alfred lose an eye before giving up my identity as Batman, and made so many other down and dirty decisions when given the chance. While I have since replayed and run through most of these games for a "karmic" reset. I'll never forget that initial heinous run. Maybe this is me getting some things off my chest but I wanted to know what horrible, no good, nasty gaming decisions the allies have made and/or even come to regret. As always. Stay Easy fellow Allies.

Happy Gaming

Hey there Allies, What are some moments you remember when you were playing a game, and it just sank in that you were playing something extremely special? I remember when I played Final Fantasy VI for the first time. The moment came after an extended dungeon in a haunted Spirit Forest, and incredible climactic boss fight against a Ghost Train. In this moment, the character I had just met realizes this train is now boarding the spirits of his recently murdered family. He has to watch it pull away to the afterlife without him, while hearing their goodbyes. It’s a moment that could be overdone, with party members chiming in with on the nose expository, or overly emotional dialogue. But in that moment, it is quiet. No one says anything at all. You feel the loss quietly together and you press on in your adventure with the stakes now raised. It’s incredibly moving, and it was in that moment, I was taken aback as I realized this game was something special. What are those moments that stood out to you? The ones that made you realize the game you were playing was a personal 10/10, just a really special gem of a game. Love and Respect, Brian from Happy Gaming

Hey Allies, Last week Baldurs Gate 3 released. A game I didn’t really care about, simply because I generally don’t like crpgs. I couldn’t play Larian’s previous Divinity Original Sin 2 game, or any other crpg more than a few hours, but Baldurs Gate 3 hooked me so much I would put it to my top 10 list. My question is: Do you have a specific game genre that you generally dislike? And which game (if any) do you still love despite not liking the genre? Love & respect, László

Howdy gang. How ridiculous is Rockstar getting with these “new” releases of their older titles? It’s like they know they can get away with it with GTA VI rumored to be coming next year. Do you think Rockstar will ever give their older titles the proper remaster/remake treatment or are they solely focused on new titles?

Hi Allies, I want the next mainline FF game to have an anime-like artstyle and a much much lighter tone. Give me a big sprawling colorful world and let me go on a grand adventure with a party of interesting characters from different races and backgrounds. No end of the world. No big war. Just a party of fun and interesting characters trying to each find their own place in the world. This is extremely unlikely to ever happen ofc, but I would love it if we could get just one big budget mainline FF that was like that. What about you guys? Do you have any wishes for FF or another franchise that are very unlikely to happen but you'd love to see them come true at some point? Thanks for picking my submission if you do. Cheers.
