Survival Horror: Defining a Genre - SNGP 79

Send us Fan MailWhile wondering just how hard it would be to win a race in F-Zero 99, David Radd summoned a universe of blades with Sole Solution in Vampire Survivors and shook his head at Jessica's wet-suit design in Resident Evil: Revelations.  Meanwhile, Tuesday did the tango in Resident Evil 4: Separate Ways and discovered that Dragon Quest spin offs aren't all their cracked up to be in the Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince demo.  In news, lots came out in unredacted Microsoft court documents, including a Xbox Series  refresh, the quixotic desire to acquire Nintendo, and how much day one Game Pass games might potentially cost to add.  It was also a week of announced departures, with Jim Ryan retiring as CEO of PlayStation, Glen Schofield leaving Striking Distance and Hideki Kamiya departing Platinum Games.  Unity also announced changes to their controversial install fee plan and August's U.S. sales were led by Madden 24 and Armored Core VI, according to Circana.  In the SNGP topic, David and Tuesday attempt to define the survival horror genre, detailing the factors they think have high impact (resource management) while have low impact (difficultly) and those that have no impact (camera angle).If you enjoy the podcast, visit us at Patreon.com/SNGP!
