  • Death Stranding 2: On the Beach (2025) Beached Things and Broken Heartstrings
    Jul 4 2025

    This week on Critical Arcade, Nick and Dave reunite with their favorite melancholic porter in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Hideo Kojima’s latest delivery of mind-bending narrative, cinematic excess, and very, very complicated backpacks. The world is still broken, the skies are still crying, and now—somehow—the ocean is even weirder. Sam Porter Bridges is back, but this time he’s not just delivering packages. He’s confronting haunting truths from his past, unraveling mysterious threads about Higgs’ return, and leading a new crew on a mission that may determine the fate of both the living and the dead.

    As they trek through deserts of bone, cities of light, and beaches that stretch into other dimensions, the boys grapple with questions like: Why is everyone bleeding from the eyes? And is it possible to cry this much and still have fun?

    So load up your cargo, chug a can of Timefall Porter, and tune in as Dave and Nick attempt to decipher Death Stranding 2—one haunting song, terrifying handprint, and existential whale at a time. This isn’t just a sequel. It’s a vibe.

  • FBC: Firebreak (2025) Burns Up and Fizzles Out
    Jun 25 2025
    This week on Critical Arcade, Dave and Nick must strap on their badass welding masks, sign NDA papers, and grab the biggest squirt gun they can find because they are jumping into the shoes of the FBC's first responders. Tasked with keeping the endless paranormal threats under control and its never-ending deluge of spontaneous fires, overwhelming Post-it Notes, and aggressively growing pink stuff (we think it might be bubblegum). Will Dave go mad shooting yellow squares of paper? And will Nick find out why Sony doesn't want him to matchmake with someone?

  • Indivisible (2019) Mind, Body and Metroidvania
    Jun 12 2025
    This week on Critical Arcade, Dave and Nick tap into their inner chakras and dive headfirst into the gorgeously animated, spirit-infused world of Indivisible. When teenage hothead Ajna finds her village burned to the ground and a mysterious power awakened within her, she does what any emotionally stable protagonist would do—she sets off on a globe-spanning quest for vengeance and self-discovery. Along the way, she accidentally starts collecting souls like they're Pokémon, storing an increasingly chaotic cast of characters in her mind palace like it's a supernatural Airbnb. Can Dave survive the spiritual and emotional growth demanded by Ajna’s quest, or will he be too distracted by the fact that one of the party members fights with a giant living yo-yo? And will Nick ever stop trying to perfect-parry everything, including environmental hazards? Join them as they punch gods in the face, question cosmic morality, and try to remember which button makes you slide.
