  • Remothered Broken Porcelain - Horror done somewhat right

    I'm a big fan of the Remothered series.  The first of a 3 part series was released back in summer of 2018.  2 years later, the sequel arrived.  Due to Covid-19, the game wasn't as polished as it could have been.  With the game finally released, we will be seeing patches for sometime in order to make the game more playable.  I'm all for it and look forward to all the fixes.  The game series has been inspired by a number of movies, video games, and TV shows.  

    We also talk about some of the music in both games.

  • What will come from developer Ghost Story Games / Blood, sweat, and games. Is the cost of ones sanity worth a game?

    Ghost Story games is working on something new for us.  What could it be?  I have high hopes from the director who brought us games such as Bioshock Infinite.  Also, what really goes into  the making of our video games?  Blood, sweat, and games.  Is the cost of ones sanity worth a game?  Developers work in harsh conditions for our benefit.  When does it go too far when it comes down to what we play?  Some do it because they love it but you must also strike a balance with work life and personal life.

  • Breath of the Wild talk, Sonic/Mario 64 anniversaries Mini-Sode

    I'm so excited for Breath of the Wild 2 that I speculate some about what's to come.  Also this month we celebrate the release of Sonic the Hedgehog on the Genesis way back in 1991.  Do you have fond memories of the Genesis games?  Mario 64 is also another important game to be released in 1996 on the very same day.  Coincidence?

  • Ben Does Gaming Trailer 1

    Hey there.  Welcome to Ben Does Gaming.  You can call me Ben!  Thank you for tuning in.  

    You know, I've been wanting to do this for a long time but always found myself too busy, or I'd tell myself, “I’ll do it tomorrow.”  Before I knew it, tomorrow became a week, a month, etc.  Not anymore!  It's now or never.  

    What I'm aiming to achieve with this podcast is to deliver gaming news and opinions on the seemingly infinite number of games out there as well as the occasional movie.  There's so much to talk about that it's kinda ridiculous.  

    During these trying times, escapism is very much needed and a good game can be cathartic.  This month, the PS5 was revealed and there's so much to go over. For my first actual episode, I will be talking about it and the game I’ve been most excited for: Resident Evil Village and a few others.  

    Thank you for checking out my first mini-sode and I kindly ask that you subscribe to stay tuned-in.  More content will be following soon.  

    May the Game always be with you!
