SG 197 | NEON BLOOD + Todo lo presentado en The Game Awards + ACTUALIDAD
Episode notes
The episode opens with comments on recent games and quickly moves into a broad review of The Game Awards. The team examines the role of announcements versus an awards ceremony they see as rushed, and runs through the event's presentations: from Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound, Elden Ring Nightreign and Split Fiction to Mafia: The Old Country, The Witcher 4 and Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. They also highlight announcements, sequels, updates and cooperative, stealth, role-playing, driving and survival proposals, distinguishing what was shown from the speculation surrounding some projects.
In the news section, they discuss the strategic agreement between Sony and Kadokawa, holiday promotions from Steam, Epic Games Store and Xbox Game Pass, as well as rumors about Nintendo Switch 2 and the handheld console market, including SteamOS.
The central segment is dedicated to Neon Blood. They describe its cyberpunk setting, pixel art and detective premise, alongside its exploration, turn-based combat and short length. They especially praise its art and sound, but point out movement, guidance and single-slot automatic-save issues. They close with information about price, the physical edition and a recommendation for players who connect with its aesthetic.
