    7.5 Fallout 4 Part 4
    Nov 14 2025
    The Gaming Backlog "Book Club” hosts discuss making progress in Fallout 4’s main story. We’ve finally caught the scent of Shaun’s kidnapper and work our way through his compound, followed by some psychoanalysis into what he’s been up to and where Shaun might be. Of course this wouldn’t be Fallout without constant diversions into other parts of the Commonwealth, so the hosts delve into their various misadventures along the way before we head to the Glowing Sea.

    Stay tuned for next week's episode to hear how we tackled the next main quests and totally random side quests in Fallout 4 Part 5, all while sharing some tips, tricks and stories along the way.

    We want to hear what you made of the revelations from Kellogg. Take part in our conversation by joining The Gaming Backlog "Book Club" Discord server at https://discord.gg/9xdX3znWQn or finding it through our LinkTree link on Instagram.

    7.1 Expectations for Fallout 4
    Oct 14 2025

    Season 7 of The Gaming Backlog "Book Club” covers Fallout 4. We discuss our expectations for the game based on what we know of the Fallout franchise, between following the video game industry in general over the years, watching friends play it and hearing their praise for the series, and the Amazon Prime Fallout TV series that we both loved the first season of. Season 2 is coming up soon so to kick off our anticipation, we’re ready to emerge from our vault into the wasteland and uncover the stories of post-apocalyptic Boston.

    Stay tuned for next week's episode to discover how it went for us in Fallout 4 Part 1, and share some tips, tricks and stories along the way.

    6.4 Silent Hill 2 Part 3
    Oct 2 2025
    Jump down into the pitch black darkness of the Toluca Prison with The Gaming Backlog "Book Club” hosts and see what lurks beneath. Somebody here in Silent Hill knows what’s going on and where Mary is, but it’s certainly not James. We chat about just how scary a horror game can get and just what pure, total darkness mixed abstract sounds and chittering enemies does to a person. Will we ever find our way out of Silent Hill? Time will tell, if our minds stay sane that long.

    Stay tuned for next week's episode to finish off Silent Hill 2 Remake Part 2, and share tips for New Game Plus as well as any wild stories you have.
