We talk about Cyberpunk 2077 the entire episode!

We start off with some quick general info before tackling the story and characters. What did we think about the 3 beginnings? Did we choose Nomad, Streetkid, or Corpo? Which characters did we love the most? Which ending did we choose to play?

We then dive into the game world. What is our overall impression of Night City? What is our opinion on the outskirts? What were our favorite regions?

Afterwards, we address the gameplay. How much of a pain was inventory management? How much did we use quick hacking? Were there too many items to pick up?

We end with a discussion on the bugs & controversy and what that did for its reception. How much is the launch going to affect its legacy? Did it crash our Xbox Series X? How much trust has CD Projekt Red lost with video gamers?

We start off talking about the Mario execution day when Nintendo removed Super Mario 3D All-Stars from the Nintendo Switch. Did it make sense? How did it affect sales? Is it a strategy we will see used again?

We then dive into the world's biggest video game cheat bust that happened recently. How were they taken down? What does this say about the gaming industry? How much did the organization make off of this?

Afterwards, we have a conversation around derogatory bots. Why do individuals spend their energy making something this negative? Why does Valve have a big problem on its hands. How many of these bots can the develops stop?

Later, we talk about Hick putting his PS4 Pro in his garage. How awesome is it to have video games in the man cave? Does he play different types of games on it? Is it a great way to get value out of an old system?

We end with a discussion on our decrease in PC Gaming. How close are the margins now between PC and next-gen consoles? Is it worth the extra money to get something you can already get with the PS5 or Xbox Series X? Do we still want to build PCs in the future?

We start off getting Red's opinions on Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. What does he like and not like about it? Is it a style of game he prefers?

We then turn our attention to the new rumors around the Nintendo Switch Pro. How do we feel about a bigger handheld screen? Are we disappointed in handheld staying at 720p? How are 1st party games going to look in 4K?

Afterwards, we discuss Microsoft buying Discord. Are we excited about it? What does it mean for the future of Discord?

Later, we talk about Xbox Live rebranding as Xbox Network. How do we feel about the name? Is this necessary? What confusion does it cause?

We then quickly touch on the new Xbox Series X controllers. We have the Electric Volt (neon yellow) and Daystrike Camo (red camo) controllers. Do we plan on buying either? Both? How do we feel about the look?

We end with a conversation about the Ghost of Tsushima movie. How do we feel about video games becoming movies? Is it something that we will check out? Would it work better as a series?

We start off with Hick's first impressions of both the PS5 (PlayStation 5) and XSX (Xbox Series X). What are the advantages of each system? What are the disadvantages? Which system does he like more?

We then discuss Astro's Playroom, a game that comes free with the PS5. Does Hick recommend that you play it? How cool was it seeing the history of PlayStation? Did it implement all the controller features like haptic feedback and adaptive triggers?

Afterwards, we give some final quick thoughts on Cyberpunk 2077. How good of a game was it? How much did the glitches bother us? What did we think of Keanu Reeves character?

Later, we have a conversation on the return of Tiger Woods to the video game industry with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2K. Are we excited about it? How much do we miss playing a golf game?

We then tackle games without photo mode. Does it disappoint us? How much do we use photo mode? What issues does it cause when it's not there?

We end with a discussion on saving in 2021. How is it possible that we still lose save data? What's the point of cloud saves if we are still going to lose that data? How many mistakes does a game get?

Following up on the last episode, we are talking Super Mario Galaxy 2 the entire podcast.

We start off with some general info about the game before moving onto the gameplay. Did we like Spaceship Mario more than the Comet Observatory? Did we enjoy the addition of Yoshi? What new power ups did we like?

We then move to the galaxies. Which ones did we enjoy from each world and which ones did we not enjoy? How do we feel about the Bowser fights? Did we like the new map system of getting to galaxies?

Afterwards, we address the music. Were there any new memorable tracks? Did we like some of the remixes? Was the soundtrack as good as the first installment?

Later, we discuss the story. Did we like the flipbook style? Did the idea of Cappy in Super Mario Odyssey come from Master Luma? Did we enjoy the presence of Lubba? Did we like that Bowser was huge?

We end with a chat on the reception and legacy. Which Galaxy installment do we think is better? How memorable is the game?

All episode long, we are talking Super Mario Galaxy. A Wii game released in 2007 and recently updated on the Nintendo Switch with Super Mario 3D All-Stars.

We start with some quick general info before diving into the gameplay. Did we like the outer space setting? How well did the Wii Remote & Nunchuk work? What were our favorite power ups?

We then go into the galaxies. What were our favorites from each dome? Which ones did we not like? What ones surprised us?

Afterwards, we discuss the music. This was the first time a Super Mario game used a symphony orchestra. How well did it work out? Is it the best music in the Mario franchise?

Later, we touch on the story. Was it better than most Mario games? Did we like the addition of Rosalina and the Lumas? How do we feel about how Bowser and Bowser Jr. were portrayed?

We end with a conversation about the legacy of the game. Is it one of the better Mario games? Is it better than its sequel? How does it rank among other video games?

We start off talking about the Nintendo Direct that just came out recently. The most exciting news for us was the Skyward Sword HD reveal. We talk about that game a lot. We also dive into the other announcements like Mario Golf Super Rush, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity DLC, Animal Crossing: New Horizons DLC, and Splatoon 3.

We then have a conversation on playing multiple games at the same time. Is it something that we like to do? If we only prefer to play one game at a time, why? How does it make knowing the controls more difficult?

Afterwards, we address those bad gaming days. The days where you just can't accomplish anything in gaming. Maybe you are dying too much. Maybe you can't find something needed for a mission. Perhaps you forgot where to go next.

We end with a discussion on the first person perspective as we are both playing Cyberpunk 2077. Is it an acquired taste? Is there a difference between RPGs and shooters?

We start off with a discussion on the new Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Japan. How cool do the Super Mario activities look? How fun would it be to ride the Mario Kart roller coaster?

We then talk about a concept we are starting to see more and more, both a man and woman protagonist in the same game. It's something that I'm currently experiencing in Assassin's Creed Valhalla. How exciting is it? How cool is it to see the perspective from two different individuals?

Afterwards, we dive into buying remakes and what we like to see from them. How different do we want the game to be? Does there need to be additional content? Are we going to buy Nintendo's Super Mario 3D World?

Later, we address games that are text heavy. Do we enjoy them or do we not? How much is too much? Do we like the subtitles on or off?

We then have a conversation on fast traveling in modern and futuristic games (i.e. Grand Theft Auto and Cyberpunk 2077). How much do we do it? Do we prefer to just ride around in a car? How much does the soundtrack help?

We end with a discussion on next-gen consoles (PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X) and voice assistant (Alexa, Google). Have we looked into it? Is it something that we would like to use?

All episode long, we talk about the great Legend of Zelda game, Link's Awakening. It was a game that was released on the Game Boy in 1993 and has had two remakes, the last one occurring recently on the Nintendo Switch.

We start with some general info and thoughts. How was the game ranked by critics? How do we feel about the game? Is there a nostalgia factor?

We then talk about the story. How much did we love Marin? Do we like the concept of waking the Wind Fish? Did we like the ending?

Afterwards, we dive into the world. Did we enjoy exploring  Koholint Island? Did we have a favorite area?

Later, we have a conversation on the dungeons. Was Key Cavern a pain in the ass? Was the Angler Fish the easiest boss in the Zelda franchise? How great is Eagle's Tower? Is Turtle Rock underrated?

We then quickly touch on some characters we missed before getting into the gameplay. Do we prefer 2D or 3D Zelda? Was the button mapping terrible?

We end with a discussion on the 3 different versions. Do we prefer the Game Boy, Game Boy Color, or Nintendo Switch version? Do we like the addition of the Color Dungeon in the DX version? How do we feel about the dungeon maker in the Nintendo Switch version?

We start off with some of the biggest news in gaming the past few months, and that is all the issues gamers are having with Cyberpunk 2077. Most of these issues are happening on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, but Red and I discuss some of the issues we are having on the Xbox Series X.

It's not all bad when it comes to Cyberpunk 2077, and we eventually turn the conversation to the good things about Cyberpunk 2077. How awesome is Night City? What about the colors of Night City? Are we enjoying the missions?

We then dive into GameStop and their crazy stock price increase. Is it sustainable? Will the small investors continue to win? 

Afterwards, Hick gives his first impressions on the Xbox Series X. How does he feel about the controller? Is the console bigger or smaller than what he thought it would be? Is he having any issues?

Later, we discuss Game Pass Ultimate again as it was just announced it hit 18 million subscribers. Have we played any games on the subscription service? Does it need more games optimized for next-gen consoles?

We end with a conversation on The Touryst and seeing retro games within modern games. What are Hick's thoughts on The Touryst? Did he enjoy the game? Could we see more retro games within a game vs being a stand-alone?
