What Is Your Favourite Game of 2023 So Far? - The PlayStation Access Podcast

[@dennigalla]

Rob's been looking fantastically dapper lately, loving the fashion game.

[@studium-]

I agree. I'm taking notes myself. What can I say? The man's got style.

[@robertbouley7697]

A true gamer lifestyle.

[@FireBreathingDapperBoi]

Can confirm

[@ABadassDragon]

Its just classy. Nothing too fancy, just perfect for a gentleman

[@bossesday1]

His fashion game has been great

[@jayjayson9613]

Rosie crying laughing after Robs camping story is just the must wholesome thing ever. Love this crew!

[@lightning525]

Rob’s been playing so much GT7, he’s even started dressing like a man who drives a classic porsche 911🥳👍🏻👍🏻

[@foosofthestoneage]

I rewound the bit of Rosie dying of laughter like 5 times 😂 so good

[@gokulee501]

Always time stamp😅

[@foosofthestoneage]

@@gokulee501 good call 😆 58:50 is the beginning of the meltdown

[@mononoke721]

Thank you Rosie for pointing something out which not enough people point out in these lives we lead - how impractical a banana shaped case is given the dimensional variety of said bananas! I've been saying it for years every chance I get but no one seems to listen or care - glad I'm not alone!

[@ChrisWTube]

They should put a Hollywood star in Horizon for Lance Reddick

[@ezimari]

high key, a great idea!!

[@ABadassDragon]

I really hope they make some memento for him

[@allercon]

Such an awesome idea!

[@lyledal]

Dave galivanting is the mental image I needed to take me through this fantastic weekend!

[@Sol-mr1lv]

I'm picturing Dave wearing those Yoda ears, holding his lightsabre and walking down a road like Peter Parker in Spiderman 3

[@allexed3662]

Make the CTR competition between Rob and Rosie happen! The RoRo Showdown

[@krookedvulture]

So _this_ is why Rob wears a loincloth ... easy access for pooping in a hole while out on his adventures ... the lore is all coming together ! 😯

[@andykegs5584]

Best ‘Before we go’ segment on these podcasts so far! 😂

[@Grey_Warden_Invasion]

I picture Rob being like "I'm going on an adventure!" and then running off to take a dump in the woods. 😂

[@JohnWalker857]

POD squad: The Rosie tears of laughter struck again and it was bloomin funny.😂

[@sdo1840]

Octopath Traveler 2 for me is the best game so far this year, recommend it to anyone. In terms if what I'm looking for, FF16!

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

I recommend getting the FInal Fantasy 1 to 6 Pixel Remasters if you like good old-fashioned RPGs. They arrive on PS4 and Switch on the 19th.

[@shedofchaos]

Podsquad, baby!! I like how Rob asks how they went from escape rooms to farting butlers. Because earlier they went from Leon’s coat to rubbing snot in your hands.

[@shedofchaos]

“Rob has so pooped in a hole!!”

[@DonCaulk]

53:06 a beautiful quote by Rosie and so true in more ways than one.

[@donguevara9488]

I love that Rosy pointed out Rob’s vocabulary. “Fastidious” I have always loved how beautifully crafted Rob always chooses his words.

[@Davewonder31]

Rob would have his own “Adventurer’s toilet” sign next to his hole in the ground 😂

[@mikkdc]

I love the way these podcasts go off on a tangent most of the time and todays was no different! The whole handkerchief debate was hilarious and Ash's name for them had me in stitches. SNOT BAGS 🤣

[@jonathanbeniston145]

#pod squad. I know Dave is away, but I can't believe no one mentioned starwars jedi survivor. It's absolutely a game of the year contender, and I've not even played it yet.

[@karenlowe9283]

Highlight of this podcast the banana box talk and roos face hearing about tropical spiders in the bags ... Naaaa naaaa!! 😮

[@mask1207]

Super excited for silksong as well, just got the plat for hollowknight after trying off and on for 3 years to get through pantheon

[@farmpunk_dan]

Thank you guys for making it less miserable to clean my kitchen 😂

[@adampoole1972]

Thanks Rob, im glad im not the only one who rubs snot into their hands haha

[@Zebula77]

I think the Dead Space remake is so far my GOTY, but this year has been amazing - Resi 4 Remake, Metroid Prime Remake plus all of the great PSVR2 stuff like GT7, Resi Village, Walking Dead Ch. 2 and the Horizon one.

[@edwardpinto1544]

Feel like I keep saying this every episode, but this episode was the best episode so far.

[@SeanLumly]

I _really_ hope that Horizon introduces levitating "islands" in the clouds (eg. anti-grav technology)!

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

Reminds me of some stuff in Subnautica.

[@t.w.mcgrowl6727]

The Posh Napkin bit lol

[@liamflynn6634]

I'm curious if Rob's water graphics love extend to lava. It flows like a liquid

[@krookedvulture]

I think this is the funniest episode so far 😂

[@mattsmith6190]

I would absolutely love a CTR Rob vs Rosie match off.

[@gladyscampos158]

I love this podcast so much. It always lights up my Saturday morning ❤

[@substance104]

Really enjoyed RE4 and currently playing Witcher 3 ❤on PS5

[@jamogable]

Rob is such a messy boi, despite the drip he has on..

[@danielgoterch5774]

I love how they went on a 3 minute tangent about pocket squares and handkerchiefs 😅

[@thegame6038]

Most fun game: Vampire Survivors. Best platformer: HI Fi Rush. Dark souls kinda game: Wo Long Fallen Dynasty. Story Fantasy game: Hogwarts legacy. Most anticipated upcoming game: Diablo 4. Most Disappointing game: Fospoken. I don't include Dead space and res 4 cause these are remakes. (But really good ones)

[@StinkyBuster]

Favorite so far this year has definitely been Like a Dragon Ishin

[@Jedi_Chimp]

I really enjoyed this week's #Podsquad episode, I'm pretty sure Rob was holding his laughter when Rosie was talking about banana size 🤣 I am also looking forward to Silksong although I haven't recovered from killing Myla in the crystal mines 😭

[@mecharobots]

Gt7 is a great game but it had a rough launch with the Microtransactions, servers being down and how much it cost to grind for credits .

[@nickhamblin8179]

2:07 ...Goo Goo G'Joob!

[@ChadGatling]

Pod squad: I just realized Rob sounds like Julian from Ghosts

[@Kiezzy]

Nothing beats contagious laughter, Rosie losing it was amazing 😂

[@DruGunnersGamingEntertainment]

RE Village in VR2 is my favourite game so far this year and also I'm enjoying some Starwars tails from the edge of the galaxy in VR... God of war for flat screen

[@MrFreeth26]

Every episode these nicknames intros just get more and more brutal. Thankfully Rob is bringing the fit and looking like some kind of dapper gentlemen lifting the tone week to week.

[@jamiemittermuller6470]

It’s been the a brilliant year for horror fans, I am looking forward to final fantasy pixel remaster out this week. What even funnier about Thor the walrus he left before the fireworks were meant to start, so they cancelled it for no reason. Another method of carrying food, biscuit in the pocket: just wrong.

[@CoconutChriss]

I am really happy that you all are still doing what you're doing. You have such a good team dynamic. Love to laugh about your jokes and to see you discussing gaming stuff. Keep it up :D

[@dazlee3257]

Wo long, granted not the most exciting of stories or enemy line up but love the combat and there's pandas.

[@daysgone2997]

the year 2023 and my fave game is gran turismo 7 with psvr2, absolutely breath taking, getting to sit in a sierra cosworth and trying to lean over at 100mph to open a glove box 🤣 apart from psvr2 games hogwarts or god of war ragnarok (new game +)

[@skinjim8]

I'm a postman so yes, I've seen the Charlie stamps.

[@troygreen3272]

Ole' Rob, looking extremely snazzy in his coats he's been wearing of late.

[@Amadeus_]

Final Fantasy XVI and it isn't even remotely close.

[@joshbott2092]

I kinda side with Rob on the handkerchief take, but I'd always have a back up for an actual emergency yo keep the nice one clean

[@esteban280889]

Hogwarts legacy for me. But I'd love some Rob octopath traveller streams

[@Leondragon06]

Loved playing Octopath Traveler 2 =)

[@joewhan11]

Rob talking about octopath traveler 2 let's me know he as a switch as well and probably played octopath 1, sony just don't allow them to talk about it!

[@ChrisWTube]

I bet Rob learnt how to say archipelago from Metal Gear Solid on PS1

[@rew3991]

Let's GO! Favorite Podcast for the weekend.

[@inferno6420]

#PodSpuad great podcast as always thank you for keeping us entertained, I attended Star Wars celebration this year and it was incredible and I even got to meet rob 2.0 Andy Serkis. Did any of you get a chance to attend this year and if so what was you favourite part thank you again for all the hard work

[@jayvb6133]

Lolz i love the way you all talk about playing games again but still don't realise you'll never get the time to do so 😂😂😂

[@girl_on_fire_x_x]

Robert Snot Pearson 🤧 😂

[@maxisenberg9093]

Idk why burning shores even bothered with the skiff when you're obviously flying the whole time

[@claratalbot7613]

My my favorite so far is a tie between Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened & RE4

[@bencrabb1583]

Wo Long Fallen Dynasty, Straight up💯

[@empurress77]

My favorite game this year: Lust Theory 2. *I like what i like.

[@shadowlinkbds]

Re4 remake has been my favorite so far this year but I still have yet to play games like dead space remake, Hogwarts Legacy, Jedi Survivor, and maybe the new Spiderman game coming later this year so that could change.

[@priscilabee583]

Some love for the Burning Shore gameplay trailer, yay!! It was soooooo gooooood!!!! ❤

[@scottbrady9477]

My favourite game of 2023 so far is The Legend Of Dragoon PS1 emulation that I am playing on PS4.

[@joeeldridge3810]

I NEED!! to see a Crash Team racing ultimate showdown with Rob and Rosie o yes that would be juicy sswweeeett!!.

[@jordanhilton1815]

As much as Ash has been talking about dredge I got online and bought it solely based on how much she loves it and I'm so excited thank you Ash

[@rasulikmal6079]

Looking sharp Rob

[@user-hi4sm3ig5j]

I don't really play the latest games, but Hitman Freelancer is technically a new game, sort of, so that.

[@theanimaster]

Rob 👍 we know the technique. You rub it till it dries and just turns into dust…

[@FerrariKing]

So far Dead Space and Re4 temakecate my favorite

[@jackusmaracus]

#PodSquad I have now learnt a new everyday phrase thanks to Ash - "They are spenny" in place of "they are expensive." This will now make it into my regular vocabulary and probably drive my wife crazy 🤣

[@WJNeweII]

Dead Space has been my game of the year so far this year, for once I can't find fault with E.A. for something as the easy thing in that scenario would've been to do what they did with both the Crysis and Mass Effect trilogies and opt for the cheap remaster instead of a full remake and they really knocked it out of the park with this game, an easy 10 rating for me.

[@bigmoviegamer1037]

Amazed by: Hogwarts Legacy (goty so far for me) Metriod Prime Remastered Still have to play: Dead Space Remake Ishin! Resident Evil 4 Remake Wo Long Looking forward to: Tears of the Kingdom Spider-Man 2 Final Fantasy XVI Of games that will be released this year.

[@azzimaz]

I'm still deciding between getting Octopath Traveller 2 on PS5 or my OLED Switch 😍😆 One on hand trophiesss 😍 On the other hand, the game visual gonna look stunning on Switch Oled 😍

[@Sol-mr1lv]

#PodSquad I wonder if it would be possible to convince Andy Serkis to sing the Gollum birthday song to Rob

[@TallAndThin123]

Can't believe you didn't mention HOGWARTS LEGACY

[@steven-i6j]

love R.E 4 remake it will win game of the year. but I love Jedi Fallen order one of my all time favourite games and already know for me Jedi survivor will be my game of the year.

[@ZaaRaphz]

I love Rob

[@jls8]

I was quite upset when I learned that the famous Scarborough Fair hasn't existed for hundreds of years...

[@ChrisJohnson-pr9jq]

I live in Scarborough, and there is still a fair, September I think 😂

[@jls8]

@@ChrisJohnson-pr9jq really?? Then I've been lied to haha life is good again

[@ChrisJohnson-pr9jq]

@@jls8 it's more candyfloss and coconut fish in a bag and terrifyingly maintained fairground rides than the traditional fair,,, but it's still called a fair 😂

[@charliemilroy6497]

It's really year of the remake and VR so far.

[@ashleykelloway9496]

#PodSquad first of all, I want to lead off by saying you guys make my work days wonderful, and love your KZbin channel! Today I decided that I should eat more fruit at work to be somewhat healthier .. so I bought bananas. I think I’ll just stick to chips now after this pod cast 🤣 thanks for saving me from the giant banana tarantulas.

[@sarads7877]

Well the crown-less stamps etc are probably gonna be worth quite a bit in a few decades… i should get some 💀

[@maxisenberg9093]

Weird warching this when i just beat burning shores lol

[@yakiclone1]

Dont get me wrong Playstation is #1. It always will be. But i cannot wait for StarField

[@stuartpenzer773]

Ishin so far, although the game I've spent the most time with is theatrythem

[@owenj005]

This year resident evil 4 has been my favourite so far but considering final fantasy is one of my favourite franchises, FF16 could be my number 1 PlayStation game of the year!

[@philcrooks848]

Hey Rob, I think you missed an opportunity with your open office farting policy when you didn't call it "fart blanche!"

[@00wrongun]

Stray & Resident Evil 4 remake

[@HatCHeTHaZ]

For me so far its hogwarts legacy & resi 4 remake

[@benjiskitts]

Hogwarts

[@doublesrankstreams]

#podsquadandvodsquad 😂 I like Rob am extremely excited for final fantasy 16. It is my favorite series as well. I was wondering rob If you have ever heard of the Final Fantasy ultimania archives? They are these huge hardcover books that showcase every final fantasy game and it's creative process, assets, art , and so on. They are so cool my girlfriend bought them for me for Christmas and I couldn't put them down. You should definitely give them a look! #podsquad #vodsquad

[@zacharron]

Wait, is Ash wearing a Casio calculator watch?!

[@vvandavvitch]

yes its 😎👍

[@zacharron]

@VVändá VVîtçh Damn, I had one of those in Junior HS in the 80s. Sweet.

[@avalon7832]

More CTR streeeeaaaaams

[@michaelschneider1365]

harry potter and calisto protocol

[@SubjectDelta12]

So far my favourite is the dead space remake! By far the scariest game of all time for starting off this year!

[@KyushuTrail]

I wish we could get it in Japan 😢

[@evo760]

It's not that scary.

[@logiclunacy606]

​@@KyushuTrail They didn't release it in Japan?

[@KyushuTrail]

@@logiclunacy606 They didn’t/couldn’t. It’s nowhere on the Japan PlayStation store. Maybe the horror is too graphic? 🤷‍♂️

[@logiclunacy606]

@Kyushu Trail I never realised that.... its funny I usually associate horror games mostly with Japan. I guess it must be the gore or something. I can't remember if it was Japan though that had unusual bias against gore in games..... like the game can be as scary as it can possibly get but not gory.... I could be wrong but I'm sure I've heard 1 country did that when the calistal protocol came out which ended up being a really bland game.

[@mahdimerzaei7985]

Resident evil 4 remake and dead space remake

[@travisspazz1624]

Burning Shores 😁

[@inferblaze91]

Thus far Resi 4 remake has been my favourite but a strong feeling I have that Jedi Survivor will change this.
