3-Bit Gamer Show

Aaron's back! New World is dropping 100k players/week, Blizzard's only female executive is leaving after just 3 months in the role, and Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 have both been delayed. Then we step into the metaverse to talk about what our second life might look like, and what battles we'd want to reenact in VR.

Oh! Apologies about the sound issues - we lost our audio halfway through and had to recover it.

Jenna, Trent, and JD take on leaf season and pray for winter. BlizzCon was cancelled, Nintendo's new online service is broken, and Activision's CEO has taken a huge paycut. We get into the Good, Bad, and Ugly of playing older games, then we talk about beating games in a single sitting. JD also reviews Injustice: Gods Among Us.

This week JD and Trent try and fail to understand how NFTs work, talk about Xbox's failure to meet sales targets, and dig more into the Twitch leak. Then we reveal the best year in both our respective gaming careers, and finally compare difficulty in video games to food. We get really mad at Wendy's.

Jenna returns once again to talk with Trent and JD about all the awesome games out this month. Trent gives a shoutout to Smoked Taco and we dig into yet another Twitch hack, FIFA FUT news, plans for the Fortnite movie, G4TV, and a Go-go-go-google lawsuit.

Peterson's out this week, and Jenna does a great job filling in his gigantic shoes. We talk about the massive Twitch leak, Amazon's New World servers, and JD gives Carl's Jr. a fudos. Later, Jenna compares and contrasts Ghosts of Tsushima and Kena: Bridge of Spirits, then JD and Trent give a First Impression Rose to Metroid Dread.

This episode has our best song parody yet. Seriously. So good.
In the news - EEOC hops on the Blizzard suit, Alan Wake remaster, Alex Jones visits for a real deep rumor scoop, Pokemon card drama, and a JD sales report.
Peterson explains the hype around New World, JD asks what PS3/Xbox 360 games need a remaster, and Peterson picks a card game for his Dice of Destiny pick.

Jackson is finally back on the show with us and he's talking about Madden (spoiler - it's not great). But first, news about the Super Mario cast, Blizzard Executive Exodus, Twitch policy change that does almost nothing, new League of Legends penalties for going AFK, HASBRO making video games, Epic is blacklisted and more. We do a Dear Game Devs for tabletop games, make up some possible HASBRO games, and then Peterson reviews Battle for Middle Earth.

Enter the Matrix with us cause we talk about the Matrix a lot this episode. We have news about Life is Strange, a wacky Genshin Impact lawsuit, COD has a bit of a cheating problem, Cyberpunk Minecraft, IKEA gaming, FUT Cash, the Twisted Metal Cinematic Universe, and the Pokemon TCG on mobile. Then Peterson does a 2 on 1 First Impression Rose, we spoof a Matrix scene, and then we pitch a Matrix game. Also, You're Welcome, Devs.
Peterson picks his Dice of Destiny game.

This week in the news - Sony rolls back HFW decision, employee mistreatment at Paradox and Broken Token, power chips are still hard to get, No Man's Sky finally hits positive ratings on Steam, China - "Stop focusing on profits. Psh", and the Playstation Showcase full of hits. We parody another song because we gotsta use Trent's pipes, we talk tech we'd like to see in the next 10 years, and Peterson reviews Warhammer 40k: Battlesector.

News - Halo Infinite with an XP-less battle pass, fried 3090 comes down to soldering, Netflix acquires some toxicity, Horizon Forbidden West's upgrade strategy, and Cyberpunk needs to be more...wet? We get a voicemail from Tim, we break down the good/bad/ugly of game controllers, and we play some foodio (drinkio?) games.
