Episode 102:1-Year Review, Overrated Games Ranked & Gregory Horror Show Roast
Episode 102 of the DMG Gaming Podcast (July 30, 2025) marks a major milestone—Grant and Ed celebrate one full year of podcasting. The episode kicks off with a heartfelt reflection on the journey: building an audience, launching hit segments like Top 10s and Random Game Roulette, and staying authentic through polarizing topics.
🔥 The main event? A fiery Top 10 list of games everyone loves but they can’t stand—including Minecraft, Last of Us Part II, Final Fantasy XIII, and Kingdom Hearts 3. Expect brutal honesty, hot takes, and passionate debates.
🎮 In gaming news:
- Mafia: The Old Country teaser trailer impressions—can it revive the series?
- Doom: The Dark Ages review roundup—IGN says 9/10, Dexerto says 60/100. The hosts call BS.
- Death Stranding 2 hits “gone gold” status—hype or hesitation?
- South of Midnight flop alert: 212 Steam players—what went wrong?
💀 Random Game Roulette lands on Gregory Horror Show (PS2)—a cult, surreal horror game with cube-headed freaks, sanity meters, and bizarre stealth mechanics. Grant calls it "creepy brilliance"; Ed says “trauma in a box.”
🎙️ In the Disgruntled Gamer Rant, the hosts roast modern content creator burnout, algorithm fatigue, and praise staying real without fake drama.
This episode blends nostalgia, raw takes, and wild game picks—a perfect intro for new listeners.
