Episode notes

The episode opens with a brief mention of QUARTET and devotes its first review to IS THIS SEAT TAKEN?, a placement puzzle game in which players must seat characters and luggage according to their preferences in settings such as bars, cinemas, transport, or waiting rooms. They highlight its gradual difficulty, touch controls, short sessions, and value for money. In the news section, they discuss Pete Parsons stepping down as Bungie CEO, leaks about possible PlayStation 6 models, the skin change in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, and the launch of Lost Soul Aside. They also debate optimization in Unreal Engine 5, a co-op mod for Sony's Spider-Man games on PC, layoffs at Crystal Dynamics, technical issues in Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, third-party development for Switch 2, and news on Judas. The second major review covers QUARTET: its four-protagonist structure, turn-based combat, exploration, optional content, difficulty, narrative tone, and soundtrack. They recommend it for its story, characters, pacing, and lack of grinding, although they point out that it is English-only and has an unintuitive vehicle control.
