Into the MonsterVerse | Episode 1 - Godzilla (2014) & Kong: Skull Island (2017)

Who's ready for some giant monster fights?

Come on down to VGU's premiere retrospective podcast starring Graydon Webb and DJ Risio, as they navigate through Legendary's MonsterVerse films and piece together this Monarch mystery! Each week, they will re-watch and discuss another film (or two), leading up to the release of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire on March 28, 2024!


In this first episode, the boys revisit the 2014 blockbuster Godzilla, and 2017's Kong: Skull Island, two landmark films that helped kick off this franchise in their own... unique ways. Were they as good as we thought? Were they way better or far worse? Come along and find out!


Editor's Note: It seems all of these movies are now available to stream in various places. At the time of recording, however, it was a bit of a challenge, as DJ begrudgingly notes.

Special Podcast: Rest in Peace, Volition Games

Special Podcast: Rest in Peace, Volition Games

As of August 31, 2023, the creators of Red Faction, Saints Row, and more, Volition, has closed after 20 years of service. The company and the developers that worked there were responsible for some of our favorate games here at VGU.TV, so we wanted to stop and talk about thier legacy a bit.


They had pretty humble beginings and some fascinating stops along there road to sucess, but ultimately, factors outside of their control led to their demise. But what were those factors? What were our favorate games from Volition? Ans how do we thing it could have gone differently? Well, Graydon, Al, and Emmett are here to talk about all that and more in this special episode.

You ready for this, Playa?

It’s Game Awards time! Sadly Al is out this week, so instead Emmett Watkins Jr is joined by Elijah Miller of Easy Achievers to predict all of the winners of the big show. It’s a MASSIVE episode so grab a snack, maybe boot up a mindless video game, and strap in for one epic discussion of some of the year’s best video games. And if it really is too long, that's what the timestamps are for!

And right at the end, only for a few moments, Elijah talks about his time with Callisto Protocol and Emmett talks about his time with Hell Pie.

We're all playing the Elden Rings and Horizon Forbidden Wests of the world, but there are a bunch of games that we want to shout out now so that GOTY discussions can go a bit smoother, so we make time for them now so we can play them over the next month or so.

Welcome back into the Hypertime! Josh is alone this week as Allan bundles up during a blizzard in their neck of the woods. It may be a shorter episode, but hopefully, an interesting one as Josh discusses Crisis of the Soul. Don't know what that is? Well...that was the original follow-up to Crisis on Infinite Earths - but it never saw the light of day.

From obscure indies to underrated entries in the most massive franchises, to slightly obscure Pokemon games, we discuss it all, and a lot more!

Al talks about their time with Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, New Tales from the Borderlands, Days Gone, Signalis, Pokémon Colosseum, and Pokémon Legends: Arceus while Emmett talks about their time with RE:Verse, Call of Duty: Vanguard, Nobody Saves the World, and Ghost Song.

Will Al finish Gotham Knights? Who knows!

Also, in the Whatcha Playin segment, Al talks about their time with Pokémon Legends: Arceus and Spider-Man and Fallout New Vegas on Steam Deck while Emmett talks about his obsession with Elden Ring and his first impressions of Bayonetta 3.
