- The First Annual 8 Bits Non-Denominational Holiday Special
What a year it has been and what better way to celebrate than by talking about some of the games that truly spoke to us this year. For this episode, I am joined by freelancer at large Moises Taveras (@platanoranger) to discuss the eight games that got us through the year that was 2021 and what games we are looking forward to in 2022.
1 hr 28 min - Gaming NFT's, Splinter Cell Remake, and Waiting to Endwalk: 8 Bits (12.17.21)
The last normal episode of the year! Ending the year with lots of NFT talk in the gaming space! Maybe I can mine for Ubisoft NFT's to keep warm through the cold months ahead.
Be sure to stay tuned next week for the first annual 8 Bits Non-Denominational Holiday Special!10 min - The Game Awards 2021: An 8 Bits Special Report
The Game Awards 2021 were a true celebration of video games, and mostly video games since the time allotted for the people who made said games to give award speeches was really short. Hopefully next year they can cut down on some announcements or Imagine Dragons to give time for these people who are making the incredible things they are there to celebrate.
Anyway, here's all the stuff that happened!
8 min - Big Battlefield Changes, Beat Buying Bots, and 30 under 30: 8 Bits (12.03.21)Back from the holiday and rejuvenated from copious amounts of turkey, mashed potatoes, and pumpkin in every which form, it's time for more news! Some companies didn't even take a break during the holiday to stop working on their games, but hopefully those celebrating still had time to spend with their families. Some even tried sneaking news out when they thought no one was watching 👀👀👀If you missed anything over the break or from this week, don't worry, I'm here for you!8 min
- CEO Must Go, Happy Birthday Xbox, and Super Smash Warner Bros.: 8 Bits (11.19.21)Heads Up: No episode next week because I'll be too busy cooking the best turkey and a bunch of apple and pumpkin pie.ABK CEO must go! The calls shouted from outside Activsion Blizzard gates this week. Even members of the board don't want Bobby Kotick in charge any more. If any big changes come from this story, I'll be sure to edit the episode as soon as I can.11 min
- A Starfield of Dreams, Crypto Discord, and Delays Abound: 8 Bits (11.12.21)Wow, people really don't like Crypto. I get that he has a really low pick rate, but his drone is super useful for spotting enemies for the rest of your squad. The Apex subreddit has some decent ideas on how he can get reworked next season. If it can happen to Wattson, it can happen to anyone.Dumb jokes aside, here's some video game news. Go play the tomorrow children when it comes out soon!8 min
- We Love Video Game Financial Data: 8 Bits (11.05.21)
No seriously, I really like financial data. Ads and marketing integrations come and go, but numbers don't lie. I'd love to dive deeper into all these financials in the future, but a short, weekly news show might not be the medium for that. Oh, and ELDEN RING!
8 min - What's Halloween Like in The Metaverse? 8 Bits (10.29.21)
(12ish hours late isn't too bad, right?)
Playstation news, financials, and our own digital escape from reality from The Zuck? Sounds like fun to me!9 min - The Elden Ring Cometh A Little Later: 8 Bits (10.22.21)
Wow, people sure love announcing cool stuff on Fridays, especially just early enough in the day that I can't wake up and add it into the show. I'm not bitter, I promise.
I might have to start adding extra bits into the show to in case huge stuff breaks on Friday again. Let me know if that's something you'd like!
Anyway, here's some video game news in about 10 minutes. Enjoy!10 min - FIFA No More, Fortnite X Among Us, and DC Fandome: 8 Bits (10.15.21)If my voice sounds a little weird this week, I'm nursing a little something in my throat so sorry in advance.If FIFA is no longer FIFA, would you be ok with the name EA Sports FC? Does FC only sound weird to American audiences?Also, if anything truly thrilling does happen from DC Fandome, I'll add an extra Bit of news on to this episode after posting. Extra bits!9 min
