With the Chompcast, we aim to deliver an insightful and unique perspective on gaming as we talk about our experiences with the games we play, recent gaming news that most affects our interests, and philosophical issues encompassing everything that involves video gaming.
This week we discuss which Final Fantasy games we’d like to get the full Final Fantasy 7 treatment with remakes from the ground up. A fight breaks out leaving twelve dead.
We also talk about what we’ve been playing this week: Forza Horizon 5, Guardians of the Galaxy, Shin Megami Tensei 5, Flynn: Son of Crimson, Demon Turf, Webbed, and the new Deep Rock Galactic content.
Welcome everyone to this week’s episode of the Chompcast! We decided to discuss our favorite couples in gaming in the spirit of Valentine’s Day. Afterwards, we discussed the games that we have been playing, such as Cyber Shadow and Super Mario 3D World: Bowser’s Fury. We rounded up the show with two weeks’ worth of polls and Rich’s rendition of the CD Projekt Red ransom note sent to them. Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!
Everyone, welcome to 2021! Whew, we managed to escape whatever the hell 2020 is. Despite the world largely being a dumpster fire, we saw some incredible games (which we will be talking about starting next week).
However, this week, we broke in the new year with one of our annual shows here at Sword Chomp: the most anticipated games of 2021. We look at games collectively to talk about our mutual excitement and interest. We also reveal our personal choices that we just couldn’t get the other guys on board with. And if you thought that was going to be a wave of content, just wait until you hear us catch up on 3 weeks’ worth of gaming that we managed to do over our break! We talked about so…many…games. Too many to list, in fact. But a highlighted few that we discussed were Super Meatbot Forever and Sackboy: A Big Adventure.
We are beyond excited to see what 2021 holds for the world here at Sword Chomp. Thank you for starting your year with us, and if you know anyone that would love our content, please share your love of us with them! TO 2021 AND TO GLORY!
"How do I check the faces book on here?"
"You don't, Morgan, and..." *bzzzzzt* *bzzzzzt* *bzzzzzt*... "Is that a pager? Where did you even buy a pager?"
"Ok, but I can send a photograph of my gentiles with this, right?"
"Yeah, old man. You can show everyone your gentiles."
This week on the Chompcast we are joined by guest Leslie Morales (Sector 7 Item Shop) to discuss the highs, the lows, the Reeves, and a game or two from E3 2019. We go over most of the conferences, mention what spoke to us, and run down our favorite takeaways from the show.
Join us for an epic auditory experience that will guide you a great deal closer to the heat death of the universe. Enjoy the show!

With Shea out of pocket, the crew take the opportunity to discuss his greatest fear: spoilers. Do we hate them? Do we like them? What's the time table until they're not spoilers anymore? We answer these questions and more while spoiling the all time classics you (personally) have missed.
(Yes, you, Nathan. You thought you could avoid Final Fantasy 7 spoilers, Nathan, but you can't. Cid is an astronaut who never made it to space in this one. Bam! Right in the description, Nate. You didn't even see it coming.)
Where was I?.. Yes. With the spoiler talk out of the way, the Sword Chomp crew go on to discuss an episodic release schedule for the Final Fantasy 7 remake, Morgan talks about his time with Final Fantasy 12 on Switch, Fish boils with Rage 2 (or he would if we stopped watching him), and we get Fish's thoughts on Detective Pikachu now that he's seen it.
Grab someone else's drink from the work fridge, sit back, and enjoy the show.

This week we discuss what causes some old games to hold up and others to feel like last year’s sack of crap. Join us to hear Morgan be wrong, Fish make metaphors out of the unmetaphorable, Josh be an asshole, and Shea wander off to swipe right.
