Observe how we artfully satirise bloated, meandering games showcases by recording an episode that's 20 minutes longer than usual. Just way, way too much good stuff on the horizon. Video games!

It's SGF season, so there's a TON of gaming news and some massive new releases to talk about. So naturally, here's an episode about our favourite games of 2017.

Sunshine, pub gardens, and video games! The new episode of The Mimic's Veil podcast is live. 🎮Hyper Light Drifter 🎮Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight 🎮Black Jacket 🎮Bubsy 4D 🎮Forza Horizon 6 Listen: Apple Podcasts Spotify Pocket Casts All Links #GamingPodcast #VideoGames #LegoBatman

A lovely little discussion about Mixtape, that blissfully ignores "discourse". For new listeners, please be aware that this isn't a real podcast (the hosts don't even introduce themselves!!!) and it was partially funded by my dad (because he paid for the food that kept me alive as a child).

I can't imagine Saros not ending up as my 2026 GOTY. What a video game.

The Mimic's Veil

My take on #Mixtape, in response to the many articles about it not being era-accurate. “Mixtape’s mood board sensibility expands beyond its soundtrack into a wider collage of vibes, trends, moments, and ephemera from generations of teen culture and media.”

🎧 The one on racing games, with @benjicong.bsky.social reflecting on having long hair & listening to guitar music 🤘😆🤘@scowlerwilson.bsky.social is soundtrack off “to be one with the engine” 🏍️ and @alexsurvives.bsky.social gets in early on FH6 to set records 🤩 🎮 #VideoGames 🕹️ #Podcasts 📻

🎧 The one in which @benjicong.bsky.social recommends a full size tellybox 📺 @alexsurvives.bsky.social has something in his eye 🥲 and @scowlerwilson.bsky.social is a rapid AF 🐭 detective 🕵️ Variety! Recs!! Crime… 😆 🎮 #VideoGames 🕹️ #Podcasts 📻
