The Biggest PS5 Games of 2023 - The PlayStation Access Podcast

[@geosword6]

PlayStation Access is my Comfort Blanket to come home to. I don't want this team / channel to ever finish. Genuine, knowledgeable, fun, good, silly, wonderful, decent people who are an absolute joy to watch.

[@brandonboroughs5396]

I genuinely think Rob would make a phenomenal voice actor. His voice is such a joy to listen to.

[@stevebongiorno7047]

Ok Rob go work on your backlog instead of making spam accounts

[@zeroconnection]

Yeahhhssssss

[@lambsauce54]

I wish they'd bring back the Friday Feature just to hear "Hello, you've just caught me" and the list videos are my favorites

[@brucewayne404]

He'd make a great Ratchet and Clank villain.

[@DarknessWithinRiku]

@@lambsauce54 I miss the Tuesday Checklists. 🥲

[@emilymitchell6823]

It’s amazing to both miss Ash and love Rob being in the chair, we’re lucky to have such an amazing team!

[@stephendonovan5056]

The Red Dead Redemption 2 train climax in The Christmas Maze was honestly one of the best bits of content (live stream, VOD, even scripted TV) I've seen in years. The Christmas Maze was very much part of my Christmas like it was with Dave's. There is a very good balance of personality in the team and I love every episode. (I was rooting for Robert S. Pearson though.)

[@alihasanin851]

When PS5 Slim comming

[@charlenelazaro1310]

Rob has a great voice for hosting so this was even more of a joy to listen to. That being said, I think it would be awesome if they each took turns hosting a season or every other episode. It would be cool to see how they'd put their own little twists in hosting the podcasts.

[@amberanime]

Agreed. I would love if they took turns hosting.

[@RedBairnMedia]

The Christmas maze for me is all about the production and getting to see Dan trying to keep a straight face whilst holding the main camera.

[@StinkyBuster]

STREET SHARKS!! Yes I remember those too! It was an animated series and only one of the four brothers had rollerblades. I had the hammerhead and the great white guys as a kid.

[@darkforest4891]

The toys had rubber mouths so you could bite things. There was a cartoon (obviously) that I have little memory of. Also this made me remember Gargoyles.

[@himynameis3664]

@@GraceofGod247 My god Biker mice from mars... you've just unlocked long forgotten memories for me. I also had the Hammerhead and Great white toys..good times

[@jbuttasmoothtv7215]

Just wanted to stop by and say there isn't another channel that comes close to the joy and passion that you guys bestow onto myself. It motivates me to continue to create and pursue my true passion of gaming! Love you all and I appreciate how hard you work.

[@rockutron9000]

"My excitement for FF7 Rebirth is like a dormant super volcano." So true Rob.

[@PatrickVRegan]

I love these people! Wondering why the US side of Playstation doesn't have a similar channel. UK knocking it out of the park.♥

[@jessebond562]

Rob i just adore you! Make rob the host always

[@no_genius]

My guess for Ron’s pun is Rob New Yearson, but I can’t think of any others. New year’s Dave (too similar for them to both work)

[@RDSwords]

Robert N. Yearson hahaha

[@warawanaide]

Feliz Davidad? 😂

[@undefinederror40404]

You took up the role very well Rob, you did great! I hope Ash feels better soon, it's not quite the same without her :)

[@simicantstandyabits1324]

This was recorded last year, she's fine now I'm sure.

[@dereksteed2030]

Proud Blu-ray collector here, David! I am one of those physical media nuts!

[@Entre_Consolas]

When I cannot find motivation to write the script of my youtube videos I always put on this podcast and it brings me so much joy hearing you talk about the games you love that I feel motivated again! Happy new year to the access team!

[@dlane2113]

The fact that Rob played with Street Sharkz is incredible!! Biker Mice from Mars too!!

[@bellystraw]

2022 was strange in the way that I didn't buy a whole lot of new games but the games I did buy were bangers. The only on release titles I bought were Elden Ring and Ragnarok and both of those games DEVOURED my free time. Then as per usual I played a whole lot of Horizon chase turbo, dragonquest builders 2, Dark Souls 1-3 and my favorite Indie Salt and Sacrifice. Salt and sacrifice is criminally underrated I feel

[@dpmacattkgaming1187]

Every time I hear these guys say “Pod Squad” I can’t help but yell out POD SQUAD with them! 😂 hope y’all had a great new year.

[@Jlpeaks]

I remember Street Sharks! They had a Saturday morning cartoon like Biker mice

[@krookedvulture]

I looked up the adverts on KZbin and although I never had any, I do vaguely remember them! ... _"Jawsome!"_ 🤣

[@bethlehell852]

I don't remember street sharks but great to come across someone who's heard of biker mice!

[@Albert-bq7pq]

Oh cmon…the best new years name pun for Dave is: New Years Dave! Unfortunately I can’t think of one for Rob. 😂

[@whydoilivetoseethis]

Robmanay (like Hogmanay)?

[@himynameis3664]

I read further up in the comments. "Robert N Yearson"

[@tayyabzaman1341]

Let me just say that thumbnail is magnificent 👌 ✨️

[@mecharobots]

Street sharks and biker mice from Mars! The 90s for cartoons was amazing

[@JanineC]

Hollow Knight Silksong!!! It's been such a long wait

[@Ellerbeetimes100]

The Horizon VR game Call of the Mountain is my excitement prompt. And the DLC Burning Shores. I'm all about the Horizon world.

[@thefrozenwolf13]

Happy new year to you all of you on and off screen ☺️ great podcast and videos loved crystal maze

[@adamt7527]

Hogwarts legacy is my most hyped game of 2023, can't believe its only a month away now :D

[@simicantstandyabits1324]

Jesus, Rob is absolutely dripped out.

[@shawnsmith4692]

Omg shout out to street sharks. That just dislodged some long forgotten memory from my brain.

[@DDocps18]

The Christmas Maze is my favourite part of the year. It's actually so well done. I felt the ending was a bit too easy on the challengers but the whole thing is fantastic anyway. You should all be really proud of how it turns out every year. Chrissymassy special was awesome too. Love the channel year round but the Christmas event is my favourite.

[@unlucky_thir13en]

For the outstanding New Year-themed names, I propose: Rob is "Year of the Robbit" Dave is "Every Dave I'm shufflin'" Ash is "Kicking Ash and Takin' Games in 2023"

[@Loki_UpChuck]

No Rob was correct the street sharks was a cartoon and it was awesome

[@user-hi4sm3ig5j]

Get well soon, Ash! Or hopefully be well already assuming this was recorded the other day.

[@Nortic111]

Aaaah, Street Sharks and Biker Mice From Mars, the toys and cartoons from that era were great!

[@rasulikmal6079]

Miss your maniacal laugh and chaotic energy Ash!! Rob is a superb host as always

[@adamkc]

Happy to see the podcast back guys! Think i agree with Dave im most hyped for Jedi survivor gonna be sooooo good, When we saw the stag fighting the ghost in Skyrim on the Xmas maze was absolutely hilarious classic Skyrim antics hahaha

[@EmperorSephirothII]

The event Rosie is looking for is the Meiji Ishin, or the Meiji Restoration in English of 1868, (hence why the game is called Like a Dragon Ishin,) I should know, I wrote my Master's Thesis on it!

[@RH1812]

Yes, David! Some people do still buy dvds

[@Aesthetic_Walrus]

Dave, if you see this, you can talk to me about Midnight Suns. I really enjoy it too. Took a break after I got a game breaking glitch in a side mission and just reinstalled it today actually. Still has the bug, but I picked a previous autosave and then chose a different side mission and was able to progress more and even got another trophy. There's definitely something about the game that (especially if you're a Marvel fan) makes the experience really enjoyable. I do look forward to more fixes though.

[@collett_smash]

I loved Street Sharks! You're not alone there Rob.

[@ChrisWTube]

Yes Rob! Street Sharks were incredible

[@Whopcap]

This was the first ever Christmas Maze I've seen a OMG IT WAS AMAZING

[@jcru214]

Rob with the street shark shout out! coolest toys ever

[@peace4myheart]

Ear canal is the correct term for ear hole as mouth is the correct word for pie hole. JAJAJA

[@g0g0stylin]

😂 I remember street sharks, noone else I know seems to ever remember them.

[@lordmartocksmusings5053]

Gaming resolutions. Get a Yakuza Platinum! Get to 400 Platinum's. Finally, get my backlog in order!

[@acelson87]

Street Sharks are legendary! I had some too, the whale was extra cool as you filled it with water and you could squirt it from it’s blow hole lol

[@ImMagnetz]

Shoutout to Dave for the Star Trek reference.

[@adamperez752]

Rob I had Street Sharks too!!! I specifically remember the tiger shark.

[@mikeidone7078]

I still have all of my street sharks collection lol they were awesome.

[@dshenk89]

I was watching the newest episode of the podcast while up late with my newborn daughter. Loved all of the holiday content and the recent livestreams to bring in the new year. Rob, I also had Street Sharks when I was growing up. If I remember correctly, they were based off of a 90's cartoon show of the same name over here in the states. Keep up the great work! Your fan from across the pond

[@cockneyrebel965]

Rob looks like a 1980's geography teacher

[@fireinthediscord]

I have serious Netflix syndrome when it comes to my game catalogue, I sit there browsing and contemplating for ages without actually playing any of my backlog. My New Year Rosielution is to make a meaningful dent in that backlog and to hopefully add to the Platinum tally! Thank you all for the wonderful content, the 2022 Christmas Maze had me grinning from ear to ear.

[@SStealthbomb]

Happy new year! 🎉

[@victor_734]

10:35 we need Dave doing the baby part 🙏

[@michaelwill5972]

Hoping for a speedy recovery to Ash

[@whydoilivetoseethis]

Omg Street Sharks! Yeeeeeees.

[@douchebag_steve]

I also wish I had rolled the dice differently, Dave 😂

[@reizak8966]

I'm with Dave. Jedi Survivor has be so freaking excited. If I only get to play one game this year, I choose that one.

[@Babycakejake3339]

Can't wait for all the wonderful content from both games and the channel ❤️

[@jwizarrd]

10/10 for mentioning Street Sharks and Biker Mice from Mars - Thanks Rob 🙂

[@thefistofbread]

Rob! I loved Street Sharks! It was a show and toys, yeah. Great memory!

[@willardth]

I remember street sharks

[@jameshamblin3964]

I found the channel from the podcast as well. Listening to this whilst grinding out Powerwash simulator for my 900th platinum

[@ChelseaSierraK.]

Hope you feel better soon Ash 💖🤗

[@LedZeppo32]

OMG! Rob bringing up Street Sharks! That was an awesome show and toy line! Just pull up the intro on KZbin. It was great! Also, if you haven't watched the Harley Quinn series on HBO, I highly recommend it.

[@lumberbrain]

Dave: "Nobody buys DVD's anymore, surely." Me: "Uhh..speak for yourself, mah boi."

[@ezimari]

getting the platinum for Midnight Suns was relatively easy because I had so much fun. I cannot wait to try the new characters in the DLC!

[@bluekryptonite1121]

ROB-YES STREET SHARKS! Totally remember those. My brother had several.

[@Jonathon_Hennessey]

Ash isn't currently feeling well at this time, I hope she feels better soon.

[@garethconner1009]

Was poorly over xmas and enjoyed all the xmas maze!

[@malcolmelliott3471]

Hope Ash feels better soon

[@stephennethercott4050]

(Pun name for Dave!)It's a new dawn, it's a new Dave and he's feeling goood 🎶

[@satyasyasatyasya5746]

*Final Fantasy XVI* because of course ($300 price tag is... uh... another issue though). But also, eversince I discovered Nioh2, *Wo Long* is the other game I'm so looking forward to. Its NOT a Soulslike as some think actually, but that works in its favor IMHO. Nioh2 is the best I game I played in years, its up there with Bloodborne and DS3 (though for different reasons. Highly recommend it! So yeh, FF and Wo Long.

[@MarchingGhost13]

I’m excited for Lies of P, Spider Man 2, Jedi Survivor, and Breath of the Wild 2. I’m also hoping to get ever closer to 100 plats. Currently at 76.

[@neray08]

I remember Street Sharks! It was also a tv show in the U.S.

[@Peater_Nutrus420]

Oh my God rob street sharks was an amazing show and I had a few of the toys as well and biker mice from Mars is an absolute banger

[@clumsysmurf8109]

I will be interested to see the Plucky Squire now. I am not a fan of Devolver's art style in their past games, but am a fan of substance of their games.

[@LiveDragon1]

Got my PS5 for my birthday this week, and playing Astro now.

[@ghudson44]

Must hear more about Fumito Uedas new game! Also whatever FromSoft is cooking.

[@ApurrrkyPSVR2gamecat]

I'm most excited for PSVR 2 🥳

[@JarvisSensei]

Yaaaas Rob! My bro and I spent days and days playing with Street Sharks.

[@krookedvulture]

I love how Rosie's first question is _" do they work underwater?"_ 🤣

[@JarvisSensei]

@@krookedvulture lol I know bless her. Like yes the plastic shark does the same in water as out...nothing

[@inferblaze91]

I remember Street Sharks Rob. Had all the toys 🦈

[@acme3drevit]

my memory of that Doom stream was rosie saying "Pinky, PINKY!!"

[@gree4776]

I used to have a remote controlled street shark that would do a chomping action as it rolled along

[@edhtroyo9432]

Rob I remember having the same street shark toy as a kid for Christmas too! They were like TMNT but a gang of sharks no? Was a great TV show back then!

[@lollyel943]

Name idea, New Years Day-ve

[@AussieMichael99]

Pod squad Great episode guys. This was definitely a great start to my birthday and made me feel a little bit better with the fact that I’m halfway to 50 I’m a big fan of your channel. You guys do an awesome job at what you do. I always have a huge smile on my face after watching one of your videos or streams Keep it up

[@amberanime]

I still buy DVD's. :) I love owning my movies and being able to watch when I feel like it without needing subscriptions. Also higher quality then streaming. :P Love the podcast! Christmas maze was fantastic. Hopefully I can find a ps5 this year..

[@Ellerbeetimes100]

One of my favorite podcast episodes.

[@TheDarkConRises]

The concept of the new Like a Dragon game kinda reminds me of Yugioh Duelists of the Roses on PS2!

[@zazoreal5536]

Still Remember that Red Dead Redemption Train coming in clutch!

[@nathanhundley5347]

I finally got my ps5 December last year and i platinumed astro in 2 days after getting it. I adore that game. Trying to challemge myself to the time trials to see how high a ranking i can get. Theyre tough lol
