  • For the Week of July 30th 2021

    So much happened this week that I almost didn't get this episode done in time because I got my days mixed up. I also had a gnarly migraine the whole time I was writing and editing, so bear with me if things aren't as good as they usually are. If they're better than usual, well maybe I should work with migraine more often.

    The ripples of California v. Activision Blizzard are making their way throughout the industry, and this show! There's a lot to cover, so listen in for an overview of it all and some of the other big things that happened this week!

    There's a lot of terrible things going on around the game industry that you should know about.

    It's always hard covering stories like the ones featured in today's episode, particularly because, despite all the hardship that the people from these teams go through, they always manage to put together something fun in the end. I sympathize with all the workers, and I hope I can keep you informed on their hardships.

    Not all is terrible this week though, so look out for the good stuff coming out of this week's episode.

    The newest Steam tech is the Steam Deck!


    Valve has come out of almost nowhere to shake up the holiday console wars. How will this effect Nintendo? Will it effect Nintendo?
    Will you be picking up a Steam Deck? Frankly it looks pretty nifty.

    Come listen to the rest of the news too!

    Sorry if audio is kind of weird this week. It's 2 in the morning, I'm sleepy, and my building has no power! On the bright side, the quiet should make things sound a bit more ambient.


    Is this the Nintendo Switch Pro? I don't think so, but let me tell you about it!

    Playstation is opening up its wallet, but not to indie developers. Humble Bundle isn't opening up its wallet, as its wallet seems pretty empty. Members of the FaZe clan thickened up their wallets at the cost of their fans' wallets. I don't have anywhere else for this wallet metaphor to go.

    We're halfway through the year and the gaming news doesn't stop! Neither does the heat! I'm gonna need to a mop to clean up all the sweat from trying to record this episode. Yuck. Be sure to stay cool and stay hydrated out there this summer. If it's getting colder or wetter in your part of the world, stay warm, stay dry, and always stay hydrated.

    Oh yeah, gaming news.


    Windows 11 sure seems like it's gonna shake things up once it hits this fall, especially with all the new additions. But what new additions? Tune in and find out!

  • E3 2021 Day 3: An 8 Bits Special Report

    Ah jeez, today really wasn't that great news wise was it? It's okay. All is forgiven. Covid and quarantine made development significantly harder, so gearing up for E3 must have been particularly difficult.


    Today featured updates from Halo Infinite, Elden Ring, and Razer.

  • E3 2021 Day 2: An 8 Bits Special Report

    Did you choose Chaos today? Square Enix sure did.


    Today was a doozy when it came to announcements, so be sure to check out the archives of all the showcases! I'm sure there will be something anyone can love. What was your favorite game today? Mine was probably TinyKin! It looks like a cutesy version of Pikmin with platforming elements around the most suburban home.
