053 - Marvel’s Cosmic Invasion: Beta Ray Bill, Baldness & Beat-’Em-Ups!
Unskippable Dialogue - Gaming PodcastShow Notes
Get ready for another instalment of your favourite Irish gaming podcast! In this episode, Conor and the Tokken lads trade in pizza for Power Cosmic as they tackle Marvel’s Cosmic Invasion – the brand‑new beat‑’em‑up from Tribute Games and Dotemu.
If you’ve ever wondered what happens when Spider‑Man teams up with Nova or why Beta Ray Bill’s Stormbreaker hovers mid‑screen, we’ve got you covered. The lads chat about their experiences with the game’s Cosmic Swap system, the deep‑cut roster (hello, Cosmic Ghost Rider!), and how the boss fights stack up against
TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge. There’s a discussion on difficulty spikes, co‑op chaos, and whether this successor to Shredder’s Revenge lives up to the hype. It wouldn’t be an Irish gaming podcast without a tangent or two: expect side‑quests into hair loss treatments, windy weather in Belfast, and why Robbie Reyes isn’t in space (yet). Whether you’re here for retro gaming news, the latest Marvel release, or enjoy dry banter about action figures and weaves, this episode will tickle your funny bone while keeping things informative.

Conor has put 60 hours into Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, the 4v4 Marvel fighting game from Arc System Works (the Dragon Ball FighterZ and Guilty Gear people). He’s reached Master rank; he’s roughly 1,500th in the world, and he thinks it might be one of the best fighting games ever made. He also thinks it’s dying, and this week he takes Pearse through why.
It's Miss Kitty's first birthday in the house, so this week Pearse takes Conor through Little Kitty, Big City, the cosy open-world cat game from Double Dagger Studio. You're a black cat who tumbles off a high-rise balcony, and all you want is to get home. To do that, you'll need fish, a lot of shinies, and a bit of help from a crow, a mad scientist tanuki and a very stressed dad duck.
It's a news one this week. Pearse and Conor dig into Nintendo's two-day Direct double-header and the latest State of Play, starting with the big one: the Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct and the Ocarina of Time remake for Switch 2. Conor is forced to revise his all-time trailer rankings, we debate the new art style (and whether Star Fox's character models deserve the same defence), and lose it a little over the thought of a fully orchestrated soundtrack. Plus: a proper jump button, full camera control, humming into the mic, and why that "Press A to jump" tutorial font has to go.
Welcome to Crow Country, the abandoned theme park where the "guests" never left. This week on Unskippable Dialogue, your favourite gaming podcast heads to 1990s Georgia for SFB Games' Crow Country, the PS1-style survival horror gem from the makers of Snipperclips that channels classic Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Dino Crisis and Final Fantasy VII in one gorgeously low-poly package.
Pearse and Conor are back in the room (and back to format) to break down the biggest week in gaming: Summer Game Fest, the new "E3." Across one packed episode, they run down State of Play, the June 9th Nintendo Direct, and the Summer Game Fest showcase itself, covering everything Sony, Xbox, Nintendo, and the major publishers brought to the table.
