The Hot Take Olympics | Sacred Symbols+, Episode 326

Gather ye round, for it's time for us to unleash some of our most controversial opinions on an unsuspecting citizenry. The Sacred Boys gather with 15 'hot takes' in tow -- five each -- to mystify, astonish, and amuse even the most entrenched and loyal of PlayStation fans. (Hell, you'll probably agree with a lot of them yourself.) From The Order: 1886, Returnal, Horizon, and The Last of Us, to Vita, PS3, PSVR2, and Sony itself, we have a whole lot to say, good and bad, about any number of PlayStation-related topics. The only question, then, is if you'll give us a kind pass or a firm stand down. The choice is yours.

Severance is legit one of the best shows of the last decade. It is incredibly clever

Doug, just Doug

Severance is A-tier. The last episode of season 1 is... amazing.

Meatball

Colin, I would absolutely LOVE a Severance deep dive SS+ episode

Mark M

2 hours and 40 minutes of hot takes?? You spoil us.

Sander Svendsen

almost 3 hour long sacred symbols+? Thank you!

Trapgunner

I haven’t listened yet but I think this thumbnail tells me what I am in for.

Walker Simmons

The only hot take I can think of that people consistently react to is Death Stranding being one of my favorite games of all time. I agree that The Order was awesome. The atmosphere and visuals were top notch and the gunplay was pretty fun with the thermite and tesla weapons #PROTOTYPE

nicholas

This is my favorite episode of all time. I love it.

nicholas

I owned a PS5 and sold for unrelated reasons... But I won't buy it again until they fix this horrible design. Ps1 was boring, Ps2 slim 3 slim and ps4 slim and pro all look fantastic... so what happened.

Colin, please finish Severance before some asshole spoils it for you. The last episode is the best episode of the season.

Wesali1996

Fantastic episode. Horizon is definitely not underrated in my opinion. Had to quit the game because Aloy would not shut the fuck up for 2 seconds and let me actually play the game 😬

PRETENTIEUX

Ben Stiller's role in the movie "Heavyweights" where he is in control of a summer camp for overweight kids has got to be my favorite. That movie is incredible if anyone hasn't seen it, especially if you have kids. It's almost on the level of Sandlot which is probably the best film ever made.

IGN hot take, excitebike 64 97%. But I got a hot take. Destiny franchise is better than the bungee halo franchise

Samuel

Love this kind of content!!

Nick

Great episode, always keep me laughing

Benito

The Funky Monk

Chris's Returnal take is so fucking good. It's a video game and it fucking knows it! Love it

Damon Pond

Colin recommended True Detective season 1 to Chris. Chris watch it!

Maxx Lazos

EASILY best ss+ in a long time. I love y’all going at each other a bit on yall’s respective hot takes. As someone who really misses “challenging colin” this is a great replacement concept. please do more like this

Ty Simmons

I completely agree with Chris on writing being too irreverent these days, it honestly makes me a little depressed trying to find a show to watch.

Out_Of_Focus_Bigfoot

Absolute banger of an episode, would love more of these in the future. Also, Chris' "Is that Evangelion?" when Dustin showed the Armored Core figure was beautiful

Tony G

Please please please do a Sacred Symbols + Prototype spoilercast with the crew.

Yalingo

A+ content

Shawn

This was fantastic. More of this guys

Cameron

This was awesome. Loved the topic and everything the episode offered Also PROTOTYPE

Evan

Good episode, boys. Love me some good ol’ fashion banter.

Michael Hedrick

I loved this episode. Deff should do a part 2

Darren Clarke

Chris's terrible take in this episode ,there's a tv show of tlou so wats the point of having the game.

Noah Friscopp

I got The Order for 7 bucks, and it was in fact awesome. For that price. Would love another one.

OlivesDad

Stand down Dustin, I never once turned off the music of my Final Fantasy 9 theme on PS4! That being said I agree I don't care if they come back on the PS5 or not haha

Dick Justice

prototype>infamous

Noah Trujillo

This as an all timer type episode. Really good idea, I’d like more general topics like this on + every once and awhile

Tanner Brant

That was a lot of fun! #prototype

My take on the best portable Playstation device, not that anyone is asking. 1. Must be able to play past games (from ps4,3,2 etc) that are available in the current library. 2. Digital only games downloaded via WiFi, so the costs of making physical games is not an issue. 3. Can stream current PS5 games via the PS5 via WiFi. 4. Expandable memory with base of 1 gig. 5. Can stream major streaming services. Just like Colin said, should be modelled on the PS4 Pro. I would pay 400 bucks for device like this. Especially if I could trade in my PS4 pro on one at Gamestop or whatever. Also, if I could switch back and forth between this portable device and my PS5.

Allan Sweeney

"The PS5 looks like a date rapist." Chris killed me with that one. He even hid it behind his tv like it was a date rapist.

Christopher Hoff

#prototype this could be my favorite episode ever. I loved the "arguments". Fun episode.

Jdummann92

This was one of the best SS+ episodes. Hard to say more of this since you've already unveiled your hot takes, but you could have other LSM people bring their hot takes to the show

Luke Silletta

Blaming the Vita failure on fans seems crazy. Its like blaming consumers because the DeLorean failed.

Chicken adobo

#prototype would love another one of these maybe a SS/DD episode of these would be very fun to see the banter between everyone. Maybe to make it a true Olympics in the LSM family the absolute mess SS/DS/PU would be really fun to listen to.

JustInsane

Silo on AppleTV is great also. Based on a book series.

Raymond keys

Man Chris’s take on Horizon and Prototype is damn near criminal 😡😡😂😂

Sergey

That episode made me very sad for Colin actually. Even in SS he is completely alone in deeper understanding and appreciation of PlayStation as a platform.

2023-09-05 01:01:10 How about this for a hot take. Astro Bot Rescue Mission is one of the Top 3 platformers ever made and a big gap in Colins Playstation knowledge. Absolute must play. Hopefully gets VR2 port.

Matthew Ward

Great episode, really enjoyable hearing all the different points of view. Also Prototype!!

Jonathan Turner

This is my hot take. Spiderman (2018) is not as good as everyone makes it out to be. Its not the best spiderman game, story is nothing to write home about, and some of the missions in it are absolutely dreadful. Swinging through NY was fun though.

Joshua La Rosa

The disrespect for PS3 can not stand

Iqan Adil

This was the single funniest SS episode ever. I was laughing like maniac while driving, listening to Chris talk about prototype and Horizon.

Rage Unruly

So, is Returnal a better game than RDR2?

Miracle Peach

This was my favorite episode of SS+ in a while. Would love sequel episodes! Dustin continues to kill it, both on and off the camera.
