This has been an exciting week in Sacred Symbols World. We're riding high off of our two hour interview with ex-Sony executive Shuhei Yoshida, and we're eager to reminisce and reflect on it. (You can watch or listen for yourself on Sacred Symbols+.) But as far as news is concerned? Well, this week is a little slower than most, which is why we packed extra listener inquiries into the show, and s...

It's me, Colin. In my lengthy experience covering PlayStation professionally, I've had the pleasure of speaking with and interviewing legendary Sony executive Shuhei Yoshida many times. But today, I'm pleased to present you our very first chat in more than eight years. (Indeed, I approached him to talk with me because so many of you asked me to. So thank you for that.) Shu and I touched on a lo...

Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson stopped me on the street once. You can tell he was a little nervous at first, but he finally managed to pull himself together, exclaiming that he was Constellation's biggest fan. I acted surprised and we exchanged pleasantries. It quickly became awkward though, so I thanked him and glanced at my watch with feigned concern before dismissing him with a tussle of his hair...

Since the brand launched in 2001, Xbox differentiated itself with robust features and services. What it lacked was games, at least in contrast to its competition. In trying to earnestly fix the problem, however, a lumbering Microsoft fell into a trap of its own design. Now, Xbox is PlayStation's single biggest third party publisher. How could it be?!

It's me, Colin. In search of a new episode of Sacred+ this week, we accidentally stumbled into at least two. That's because we -- myself, Dustin, and Brad -- bit off a little more than we could chew, albeit serendipitously. Thus, we present to you the first of a two-part episode dedicated to the ranking of Sony-owned PlayStation IP from both first and second party, from the very beginning of th...

A recent presentation showcased a diverse array of some 35 games coming to PlayStation 5 over the next couple of years. But -- perhaps unsurprisingly -- that hasn't stopped boo-birds from raining down upon Sony yet again, at least from some particularly loud corners. It seems that some people will literally never be satisfied, no matter what. But for those who are looking forward to new games t...

After a long build up, the boys have played and finished Avowed! Joining the Dukes is Gene Park where we discuss everything from our combined experience with Avowed, to a preview with South Of Midnight, and even Sony's recent State Of Play. While there are few subjects to tackle, each of them have a lot of meat on their bones. So, let's not delay any further. Is Obsidian's latest RPG worth the ...
