Developer: Bloober Team
Publisher: Konami Digital Entertainment
Designer: Mateusz Lenart
Platforms: PlayStation 5, Windows
Release date: October 8, 2024
PROMO: Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast (@CCinemaPodcast)
SHOWNOTES: Due to scheduling conflicts, we will have to record Part 2 of our Season Premiere on Doom (2016) at a later date, so apologies for our numbered episodes being slightly out of order! With the anxiously anticipated remake of Silent Hill 2 out for over a month now, we were pressed to present our spoiler-free thoughts on Bloober Team's reimagining of Team Silent's 2001 survival horror title, and boy do we have a lot to speak on the matter. With a lot of hesitation regarding the competency of the development team behind the remake, and controversy surrounding its release in the modern climate, Silent Hill 2 (2024) has faced an uphill battle. But does it manage to come out on top in its attempt to recreate, or possibly improve on one of the most successful horror games of all time? Ash, Beau, and returning guest Robert endeavor to find out on our latest Game Launch review! Also, stay tuned for Part 2, where we'll be going into full spoilers on this title.

SHOWNOTES: On the latest Collateral Gaming Game Launch, we are joined by returning guest Michael Toscano to discuss this year's entry in the Call of Duty franchise: Black Ops 6. Co-developed by Treyarch and Raven Software, this title notably introduces omnidirectional movement to gameplay and a return to the round-based cooperative Zombies mode, in addition to the standard inclusion of new guns, maps, game modes, operators, and cosmetics. Ashley, Zachary, and Michael discuss multiplayer mode changes and improvements amidst the ever-present skill-based matchmaking, as well as Zombies and the single-player campaign in this spoiler-free review. Is Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 an overall improvement over last year's Modern Warfare III, or is it a downgrade? Listen to our thoughts now, and stay tuned for more content very soon!

Featured Game Review: Parasite Eve (パラサイト・イヴ, Parasaito Ivu) [Wikipedia] [IMDb]
PROMO: Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast (@CCinemaPodcast)
SHOWNOTES: Halloween may be over, but we have some post-holiday content for you on Collateral Gaming: Bonus Round! On this special episode, Ash and Beau review SquareSoft's 1998 survival horror RPG Parasite Eve, an oft-overlooked title from a golden era of the developer/publisher. This PS1 game has one of the most unique combat systems that was frankly ahead of its time, and there's not anything quite like it even today. If you enjoy this episode, check out our Amnesia: The Dark Descent Halloween Special with Collateral Let's Play! on YouTube, and stay tuned for Part 2 of our Season Premiere on Doom (2016), as well as more late spooky content, such as an upcoming two-part episode on the Silent Hill 2 remake!

Joined by our Collateral Cinema co-host Robert, Ashley and Beau dive headfirst into the original 1993 shareware title that started it all and popularized the first-person shooter genre! It's not an understatement to say the gaming industry wouldn't be where it's at today without the release of the classic Doom on MS-DOS, and what better way to start what we are calling the golden season of Collateral Gaming? Stay tuned for Part 2 of the Season Premiere where we'll be discussing the 2016 Doom reboot, as well as our Halloween content very soon!

Title: The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom [Wikipedia] [IMDb]
Developers: Nintendo EPD, Grezzo
Publisher: Nintendo
Designers: Satoshi Terada, Tomomi Sano (directors); Eiji Aonuma (producer)
Platform: Nintendo Switch
Release date: September 26, 2024
PROMO: Collateral Cinema Movie Podcast (@CCinemaPodcast)
SHOWNOTES: We've been hyped as all hell to discuss the latest Legend of Zelda title, and that moment is finally here! In our latest Game Launch review, Zach and Ash reveal our spoiler-free thoughts on Nintendo and Grezzo's new adventure featuring—for the first time in any official Zelda entry—the titular character as the playable protagonist! The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is a blend of traditional series gameplay with elements of the more recent open world formula, with an innovative gimmick giving Princess Zelda the ability to copy and paste monsters and other game world elements to fight enemies, solve puzzles, and traverse the overworld and dungeons. So how well do co-developers Nintendo and Grezzo implement these ideas, and where does this title stack amongst the franchise? Find out now, and stay tuned for the Collateral Gaming Season Seven Premiere and spooky season content very soon!

SHOWNOTES: EUREKA! On the latest episode of Collateral Gaming Game Launch, we won't rest until we've inspected every suspicious-looking nook and cranny of the Ace Attorney Investigations Collection. This new remastered compilation contains Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth (2009) and, for the first time outside of Japan, Ace Attorney Investigations 2: Prosecutor's Gambit (2011)! These spin-off titles put the player in the shoes of Phoenix Wright's prosecutor rival Miles Edgeworth in a departure from the visual novel gameplay Ace Attorney titles are known for, focusing on investigations outside of the courtroom. So, have a listen to our spoiler-free review, and stay tuned for our Season Premiere on Doom (1993 and 2016), our next Game Launch review on Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, as well as Spooky Season content very soon!

SHOWNOTES: TAKE THAT! In Part 2 of our episode on The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles, Beau and Ash conclude our discussion of the duology as we analyze The Great Ace Attorney 2: Resolve! Unlike most Ace Attorney entries which tell mostly standalone stories, these two titles are halves of a plot following Phoenix Wright's Victorian/Meiji ancestor Ryunosuke Naruhodo. But how well does this follow up to its predecessor and tie up all loose ends for Ryunosuke and friends? Find out on the finale of Collateral Gaming's Logic and Reasoning Spectacular on the Great Ace Attorney games!
