Hey Geeks, this week we talk about the passing of a legend. We discuss our issues with Lightfall and whether we think Bungie really has a plan for the story. For a genre that seems extremely unpopular and unwelcome by gamers at this point, Service Games sure seem very popular with developers/publishers despite the failures that have come and gone. NFTs have failed repeatedly, so why is Square Enix still trying to make them a thing? Bethesda announced a new launch date for Starfield and a showcase date is on the horizon, but what do we expect from the game? We saw some movies recently and we give our recommendations. Be sure to follow us for my time wasting advice.

Another One Bites the Dust 2:46:55

27 days ago2:46:55

2:46:55

Hey Geeks, this is a bit late ... only nearly a month. HAHAHAaaahh. Anyway, this episode we talk about EA closed another studio. We give our opinion on Elden Ring Nightreign. Randy Pitchford apologized? If you want to call it that. We give our thoughts on the possibility of $80 games that simply won't ever be worth that kind of money. Meanwhile the industry turned on Studio 33 and instead of giving them a pat on the back they decided to point the finger of blame. And a former BioWare dev decided to share a little bit about how the industry apparently sees their gamers as well as his own thoughts on those of us who are critical about the industry as it is now. Finally we also talk about some anime we've been watching and give our recommendations.…

Hey Geeks, this week we chat about Bungie openly admitting to plagiarism. Nintendo fans, and all fans for that matter, need to stop simping for companies who don't give sh*t about them. We talk a little about our experience with Soulframe. We also talk a bit about our time with Doom, the REPO beta, Bokura Planet, and Schedule 1. Additionally, we give some of our thoughts on some Anime we've been watching and recommend you stay away from one of them. And I just remembered I forgot to talk about Sinners, sh*t! Go see Sinners, it was freaking great.…

Hey Geeks, this episode we talk about Microsoft increasing their prices now. This can only get worse. We also talk about EA firing hundreds of devs and more games journalists are losing their jobs. A few games got remastered/remade and this led us on a conversation about what the difference is and what games should be remastered/remade. Lords of the Fallen dev, CI Games, got flack for doing the right thing. Plus we give our opinions of a few games and an anime recommendation.…

2:11:18

Hey Geeks, this week is a rarity. We talk about politics. Now, now, nothing extremely serious. Just the fact that USAID gave money to publications to bat down Gamergate 2.0. That's right, the government thought they'd throw their hat into the arena of gaming affairs. As you can guess their understanding is about as extensive as Kotaku's so you can see where this is going. Anyway we also talk about a few games. Give our personal takes on Civilization VII. Catch up on some issues that cropped up involving Assassin's Creed Shadows. We even discuss some movies we're genuinely excited for. If you don't wanna hear out takes on the political nonsense, just skip ahead to 15:35 and you should be golden.…

Black Myth: Wukong got nominated for GOTY, but it doesn't seem like it has much of a chance of getting it from what we can see.

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about journalist learning to STFU. Dragon Age: The Veilguard isn't doing well and why these games truly fail.

The Powell Group decided to make a new friend. The ADL decided to go out of their way to defame Steam. Indian Jones and the Great Circle finally showed off some gameplay.

Hey Geeks! This week we chat about BioWare. CD Projekt Red getting caught with their proverbial pants down with their DEI initiative. Ubisoft is in trouble but it's starting to seem intentional. Has DC turned the ship around? Is Silent Hill 2 Remake worth a replay for those who loved the original and is it worth a playthrough for first timers? Is Until Dawn Remake really a failure? Is The Casting of Frank Stone worth anyone's time and money? How was The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom? And what did we think of The Wild Robot? Close: "Thriller" by Michael Jackson…

Hey Geeks, we're back with another fantabulous episode discussing the absurdity of the all the industries we love. This week we start off talking about some of the insanity from a specific Forbes writer who tries to hold others accountable while ignore his own BS. CD Projekt Red get themselves in hot water. While Ubisoft is a frog slowly boiling. Meanwhile BioWare has lost the plot entirely with Dragon Age Veilguard and gamers figured out what was wrong in 2 weeks where as the devs couldn't nail it down in 8 years. Additionally, the Heroes talk about what they think about PS5 Pro, provide a decent PC build list, and give their thoughts on Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

EDIT: Hey Geeks, had to make a correction at the start of the episode. Nothing has changed but need to give credit to FLASH GITZ for an animation I referenced and misplaced credit towards a different creator. This week we spoke about the insanity that is continuing with AMD and Intel. Plus GAMESCOM took place and we have something to say about a lot of what was shown. Also we give our thoughts on Tactical Wizards and Black Myth Wukong. Close: "Steal My Thunder" by Conner Smith (feat. Tucker Wetmore)…

This week we talk about Games Workshop suing a fan for make 3D printable models of things they don't even make or use anymore. Shame on him for using assets they don't, right? O_o RoosterTeeth managed to rip off VIZ media by selling them RWBY. Mortal Kombat has had a drop off in the tournament scene but there's a very likely explanation for this. Are you tired of remasters? Well we suggest you just play the originals and tell publisher to pound sand. And that's only half of what we have to say on our shortest podcast in a long time.

Microsoft gets thrown shade for closing studios they basically just bought, but do they deserve all the blame? The Suicide Squad was effectively the biggest loss for WB. A new Batman animated series is on its way and with a new "exciting" Harley Quan, oops, I mean Quinn. We also give our thoughts on some recent Horror movies including Abigail.

The episode was recorded a few weeks ago just after Unity tried to swindle some more money from developers using their engine. Nothing Netflix, Disney, Hulu, and Amazon aren't already doing to their customers by raising prices this difference is the developer community and gamers came together this time to say, "are you f*cking crazy?"

Companies think you owe them your money and apparently Sony believes they're too big to fail again so they can charge you whatever they want for the same services you already have. Makes total sense, right? Companies need to be reminded that you have the power. Not them. So let them fail.

Hey Geeks, we're back with a long one. Recently some developers said some pretty stupid stuff and we thought we chime in because what else can you do around a dumpster fire? Anyway, we thought the sentiments expressed translated to the general issues around quality in streaming services and films as well so once this all got started it just didn't stop. We're tagging everyone we can in this one cause the industry needs to start hearing gamers out instead of instantly thinking we're unreasonable and treating us all like children.
