Tom G

Oh shit I’m home sick this is hitting soooo hard you guys are my heroes!

Tyler Stafford

This is gonna be a strong episode, can't wait to listen. Gene with the threepeat on LSM this week.

Breno Bezerra Bluhm

So far metacritic scores for Avowed are 80 and 79, and IGN just gave it a 7. Was definetly expecting a stronger reaction cause it’s a game from Obsidian but I can’t wait to hear what the three of you thought of the game!

Zachary

A criticism for cog being that I don’t believe he is being as honest as he could be on his opinions, he sounds like he is saving face for media outlets that he wants to keep access to. Avowed, starfield, hellblade 2 all decent games but he lacks serious criticism for any of them. Xbox cope needs to end.

Shouts out to Joey Valence and Brae in the Borderlands trailer! Great group bringing back the Beastie Boys sound. Put out one of the funnest albums of last year. Really want to see them live. Game looked pretty cool, could get me back into the series. New game from Housemarque looks incredible, hopefully I can actually beat this one lol also Hell is Us looks way better than it's last showing and the Octopus game looks awesome. That being said, nothing really coming out in the first half of the year I am excited for.....at least Xbox got me

AJWhite

I was predicting mid to low 80s and it seems I was actually right for once. I'll check it out when it comes to PS5

Kurai

Cog, my man, you're wrong How can you forget one of the coolest ninja's in gaming, my boy, Strider Hiryu Come on Capcom, you're on a roll and Ninjas are cool again, bring it back! Love the dukes, peace and love to you guys! Mental Health is also wealth

Michael

Gene’s just been popping up everywhere this week in lsm lol

Omar Rosa

Love the random 3rd chair on the show.

Zac

For those keeping score at home it's WashedAF - 2 Matty - 0 One more dub and Washed becomes the permanent third chair on DD by law

Gooch Gobbler

The fact that there have been no good LOTR or GOT games in the past decade is a tragedy. Wake the hell up WB

Robbie Agnew

Avowed disappointing? Saw that coming from the trailers

Phil Jenkins

Willing to bet that the first thing all the hardcore Shinobi fans check, is the infinite shuriken cheat 😂

Birds Aren't Real

Hey Gene, Tenchu is owned by FromSoftware, not Activision.

Del Griffith

"A lean show"....checks time....4+ hours. Haha.

Slippery when wet

Cog I don’t ever want to hear that “Hog Leg” bs from you..

sotelo74

70 people have the Concord platinum

Shortsoptional

Getting a good fill of Gene the last week. Love it.

Slippery when wet

My goodness… can cog get his damn bars off on avowed. They really horrible cutting him off.. damn it’s annoying

BigDumbStupidIdiot

Avowed being a 25-60 hour in-betweener game would be perfect if it came out in April. February is WAY too stacked

joefray_

Matty. Pls. Play Returnal 🙏

Envydiel

There's a Game of Thrones RPG from the PS3 era made by Cyanide - the same devs who made Of Orcs and Men & Styx. It's has a surprisingly great script and a few hours in, the voice actors realise it and you can tell they raised their effort 😅. If you vibe with the type of games Lockmort enjoys, you'll definitely dig it.

Carlos Hernandez

yawn another bad matt / gene review who’s surprised 🙄 and them cutting off cog every min about his avowed bars

Daddy T

Gene Pork

Michael Mashpotato

Im 100% playing South of Midnight. Once I saw the combat and the characters movement I was sold. You guys saying the music is good is the cherry on top.

Lunar Tear

I'm envious of the people who HAVEN'T been waiting for Lost Soul Aside for 10 years.

SIR_K_Daddy

#Genestop10DD great episode guys, the trio killed it

NeO JD

“Apology to all my haters” lol Highly recommended Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth and Hacker’s Memory to all Digimon fans. I’d even say try it out to RPG fans. Glad we’re getting more of this. #GenesTop10DD

Guybrush Threepwood

WB Games - this thing they did where they gained exclusive legal rights to use the Nemesis System, and then, they never use it, and even CANCEL it out of a game that was supposed to have it - this is one of the shittiest things I've ever seen by a game company. So you just patented this mechanic ONLY TO DENY other creatives from using a cool system in their own games. Just a piece of shit company.

David P

I don't see why a ps4 game that got a free 60fps upgrade would be the one need to a remaster. It feels like everyone hates these until they see it and the $10 and shiny new crap placates them Man. What a shame about Avowed.
