It’s hard to shake off the pull of something successful. I mean, it can be easy if you’re outright against it or don’t have the means to obtain it or whatever. Basically, there’s exceptions, right? But I’m speaking in the sense, as almost always I do here, in terms of video games. A successful console […]

So, about that write up last week… I think I mentioned that Borderlands 4 would be a test for that $80 third party gaming pricing. Turns out, it won’t. Since they are basically pricing it as pretty much any other current gen triple A game. I don’t know what game will eventually be that test, […]

We’ve circled back around to the price of our hobby again. Not so much the consoles and PC components, those will always run a premium. But the games. Nintendo is testing those waters with their first party titles. So, it’s their exclusives. If you want to play them you’ll have to pay those prices. Microsoft […]

“Too much is not enough” Actually, yeah. Yeah, I kinda think too much is more than enough. They need to space these things out. The Summer Game Fest video alone is 3.5 hours long. And it is back to back to back titles over and over again. The next day had SEVEN more events of […]

“You cannot f___ the future, sir. The future f____ you.” So, we’re back to the discussion of $80 games, and to get right to the core of it—this is happening. It was probably always going to happen. Inflation affects everything—food, materials, consumer goods—prices inevitably rise, and video games are no exception. The same goes for […]

How do you solve a problem like GTA 6? What I mean by that is that when you have a game like GTA 6 it sort of dominates the store shelves – it dominates the topic of conversation. And getting back to the store shelves that’s the problem. When you release a game like this, […]

We might be done for a while talking about the Switch 2 (but not for very long), but in its place we now have GTA 6. Just swapping one evil for another. And no, they aren’t really evil, but those prices sure are. Oddly enough, prior to like a month ago, GTA 6 was the […]

So, maybe for a while we might be done talking about the Switch 2? Pre-orders are out (some oddly still available) and now it’s just the waiting game until June 5th. I was able to get in a pre-order myself, but I’ll be on the fence for either keeping it or canceling. And if I’m […]

We’re finally getting to order our Switch 2’s. Well, pre-order them. We’re also finally settled on a price and, as it turned out, it was the price we knew all along anyway. So, for now, it’s the $450/$500 situation. That price won’t change through the release on July 5th. Although given how quickly things have […]

It’s been two weeks and I’m past the point of being tired of talking about tariffs. At least where Nintendo is concerned. And, I guess, where our gaming hobby is concerned. PC components, consoles, games, digital or otherwise, just tired of talking about it and speculating on it. At this point I’m of the mind […]

You’d think around an hour would be enough time to really go over everything going on with Nintendo, but apparently not with the way we do it. But yeah, this is what we’re talking about for the whole second hour of the show. We didn’t finish the conversation and we’re likely to have it again […]

I had forgotten what it means to be on the cusp of a GTA release. I admit, my memory isn’t at all what it used to be, but you might also forget that the last time we were here was 2013. I’d forgotten not about the build up to release as far as hype is […]

“Listen to the thunder…” This is probably one of the more unusual episodes we’ve done. And we’ve done a lot of unusual episodes before, but this one dealt with some pretty severe weather coming into our area and, as such, we had to cover it. Not something we mind at all, by the way. We […]

“I hope that somethin’ better comes along…” By now you should know that when I like a game, it’s probably on the simplistic side of things. We always referred to Destiny as a “my first mmo” kind of thing. And so it seems with Avowed. It’s beginning to click for me but the more I […]

“The next best thing to the enjoyment of a good time is the recollection of it.” We’re two months in for the year and currently sitting around 1200 job losses in the gaming industry. A number that will only go higher, of course, as the year goes on. This week, among other studios, we lost […]

“Patience is a virtue” A virtue I’m well acquainted with – except for when the internet is down. It was a weird weekend. After this show wrapped we had bad weather come through and that required me to put on my day job pants and monitor things for where I work. That got me in […]

“You couldn’t live with your own failure, where did that bring you?” Back to Batman. I get the need to want to work on something else. I understand how tiring it is to keep doing, mostly, the same thing over and over again. As well as trying to bring more to the table to keep […]

“Let a joy keep you. Reach out your hands and take it as it runs by.” I’m still putting in time with AstroBot. It’s a great little game to come home to, if that makes any sense. Like, it’s a comfortable TV show. A feel good book. Something to take away the worries of the […]

Snap back to reality… So, this time last week I was wondering what had happened to Marvel Snap. Turns out they’re owned by a company the US Government doesn’t want operating in the US. Anyway, that lasted all of maybe two days or so. Everything is somewhat back to normal. And players will be seeing […]

Just as a note, I’m writing this the day after we recorded this episode. Yeah, some things have happened since then and we’re absolutely going to talk about it on the NEXT episode. For now, I want to keep this content relevant to the episode it’s attached to, even though it does have to do […]
