This week on VGS…

The team shifts through the good, the bad and the ugly of Gamescom! New South Park game is shaping up to be something special, not so much for other marginalized horror games trying to make a splash on the scene.

We also take some time to examine reboots, remakes, definitive editions whatever you call them old games brought back to life are just a GOOD GOOD thing. Interns Thomas and Anton give us a rundown of their TOP 3 titles they wish returned to the land of the living.

…….NEWS OF THE WEEK…….
In case you missed it, Konami is making another Metal Gear game sans Kojima and the world is LOSING THEIR MINDS! The title appropriately dubbed, “Metal Gear Survive” is a crystal zombie co-op shooter. Host Andy doesn’t understand why the world is so upset. Rich the intern nearly vomits in pain. Do you really care?

……FEATURE INTERVIEW…….
It’s coming from a storied franchise that is beloved by millions, Deus Ex Mankind Divided is out this week and Game Director Jean François joins the show to talk about it. The title deals with issues of racial and culture separation on arbitrary lines, postulating a new racism centered around robotic humans.

About Video Game Sophistry:
Video Game Sophistry is an opportunity to celebrate the creators and the artistry found in Video Games. I believe that Games are the most effective medium from experiencing another world, and another way to live. Expect to see a series of videos showcasing the narratives hidden in every game, interviews with game developers, along with our bench mark weekly podcast, Dialogue Wheel. 

Andy Borkowski started this program nearly 10 years ago and, in that time, it has changed from a simple YouTube show, to a radio show, a tv show and now once again a YouTube destination. Welcome to VGS.
