Dread and loving it. I haven’t spent much time with Metroid Dread since its release but what little time I have spent with the game has been enjoyable. It also happens to look amazing on the OLED Switch. In handheld mode this game shines and even when docked it still looks and plays great. I’m […]

Season 15, Episode 35

That thing you do. You know the thing. Where you say you won’t do something but you end up doing it. Almost every single time. I was able to sell my launch Switch System and, with all that GameStop credit I had from last week, also picked up a new Switch OLED version. Something I’d […]

Season 15, Episode 34

Let’s make a deal. And boy did we ever. Rarely will I ever shill for a store. For one, on the air, I can’t really do that. Not unless they pay for it. BUT, I love deals. And this was more of a PSA for folks than anything else. We know how hard it can […]

Season 15, Episode 33

I don’t need no game to tell me what to do. But I sorta miss instruction manuals. Back before I could drive they were quality reading on the way home to play the game. I can remember for some game I got I hadn’t finished reading the manual, so I sat on the couch and […]

Season 15, Episode 32

You could hear the complete change in tone I had in my voice as soon as RJ said he’d fired up Destiny on the PS4. And it isn’t like it was his first time, but I think he’d all but given up on the game in my mind until I had heard this. Not that […]

Season 15, Episode 31

Push the button. Get a reward. Push button. Get reward. Button. Reward. This is every video game, ever, when you get down to the fundamentals of it. And that’s not a negative. Most games find a way to make that whole operation fun and rewarding. So much so that you may not even realize it’s […]

Season 15, Episode 30

First things first: No show next weekend. Secondly, the video for this episode might seem a little different since we’ve switched studios. This room has windows! So, Gamescom was like a little mini-E3 there for a bit. I still wish they’d stop with all the interview segments or, at the very least, just put the […]

Season 15, Episode 29

I really want to play Humankind. And I can actually play it right now with my Gamepass subscription. It isn’t on the console versions but it is on the PC versions. But…I can’t play it. Actually, I can, but there’s a risk involved because of Gamepass on PC and something Microsoft has done. There’s a […]

Season 15, Episode 28

We had something brought up in this episode that I haven’t given thought of in more than 25 years or so. Probably longer. And I probably only thought about it for the span of maybe a day or so when I did all those years ago. Made me wonder about the other things in gaming […]

Season 15, Episode 27

If the same thing that’s happened at Activision took place at another company that you support by playing their game, would you continue playing it? I asked that question at the tail end of this episode so there weren’t any responses. It is a question I tried asking myself, and couldn’t easily answer. The reason […]

Season 15, Episode 26

I can’t remember the last time James was on the show. He may have called in for a segment or two but the last time he was in-studio I think we talked about Prey. The newer one…not the portal one with the awesome intro of the bar getting sucked into the spaceship or Art Bell […]

Season 15, Episode 25

It’s a strange place to be in gaming when the highlight of a publisher/developer showcase is a remake of a game from over ten years ago. We shouldn’t even be getting a Dead Space remake since there’s really no reason this series should have ever ended. I mean, sure, sales numbers or critical reviews may […]

Season 15, Episode 24

Valve can really sneak up on you. Just out of nowhere announce a new device. And more so, a device we’ll see this year. Usually for console reveals or announcements, you’ll get a head’s up that something is coming or something will leak or you’ll get some sort of vague hints that lead to major […]

Season 15, Episode 23

First up is a note to apologize for the audio issues after the first 30 minutes or so. If you’re listening to the audio from iTunes, it’ll just cut from music to talking, and if you’re watching the video, it’s about 2 minutes of trying to read our lips and suddenly realizing no one can […]

Season 15, Episode 22

Just a head’s up that there will be no show for next weekend. We’ll see you back on Saturday the 10th. Thinking back on this episode, I mentioned why we weren’t talking about Activision and all the money they are giving to ol’ Bobby. I’d said it was because it always happens, each year, without […]
