Sacred Symbols: A PlayStation Podcast

Nathan Fillion, an actor beloved in nerd culture from his Firefly days, released a movie-quality Uncharted short film, and it has the Internet abuzz. So we chat a bit about it. But in reality, news is pretty light this week, so we rely on a ton of awesome listener inquiries to fill our 100+ minute run-time. Should Sony's studios have Nintendo-level clout? Will we ever get a sequel to The Order: 1886? Is games journalism failing? How can Sony make PSN better? Will we ever do Sacred Symbols Spoilercasts? The questions are many. Many more than this. So, thankfully, are our answers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

It's been seven years since Sony-owned studio Media Molecule released a full-fledged triple-A game, which is ridiculous. So today, we figured we'd answer a listener inquiry about Dreams, Media Molecule's perpetually-upcoming game first rumored in 2012, shown in 2013, properly revealed in 2014, and... *looks at watch*... well, it's 2018, and it's still not here. We also take the time to chat about Nathan Drake's astounding luck, sales expectations for Red Dead Redemption 2, the status of the long-in-development Dead Island 2, possible release dates for Ghost of Tsushima and The Last of Us: Part II, the future of EA's Star Wars games, the recent God of War movie rumors, and much, much more.

Welcome to Sacred Symbols, a hardcore PlayStation podcast for hardcore PlayStation fans! In our inaugural episode, we keep it simple: What are we aiming to do with our show? What is the podcast going to be like? And how can you be involved? Of course, once we get through all that housekeeping, the lion's share of Episode 1 is full of PlayStation chatter. Will Sony ever allow cross-platform play? Is Sucker Punch preparing to be raked over the coals for its representation of 13th century Japanese society in Ghost of Tsushima? Will Final Fantasy VII Remake ever come out? Do we really need Jim Carrey playing Dr. Robotnik in a Sonic the Hedgehog movie? In our maiden voyage, we answer those questions, and many, many more.
