Man, we played a lot of games this week and talked about them! A lot. Everyone played and finished Firewatch and really enjoyed it. Adam was all about the narrative this week and also finished Gone Home. Dylan is loving Snake Pass. And Cliff has great things to say about Thimbleweed Park.In news, Telltale's Guardians of the Galaxy is coming out next month and is on sale, the PS3 ends production in Japan, new indie games are on sale in the PS4 Play Collective Sale and the BAFTA's are next week. We answer a question from Vinnie about video game villains and go over next month's Games with Gold and Playstation Plus games.Also, if you haven't joined up yet, we have an Xbox Club and a Playstation Community now, come join us!

We turn 18 (weeks) with this episode, so our podcast can now officially vote and go to war. At least that how I think it works. We spend some time talking about our favorite "barely legal" moments in video games, a cool way to keep your dock from scratching your Switch and if Adam is the only person that cares that Mario Run is finally coming out for Android. We also spend some time talking about Mass Effect: Andromeda's animation issues and the online harassment that sprung up as a result, which led us into a bigger discussion about toxic gamers in online multiplayer games. We finish up with some quick Rocket League news and the official announcement of our Xbox Club!

On our four month anniversary episode we talk about playing Mass Effect: Andromeda early via EA Access and try and decide what system to play it on, the Nintendo Switch "tax" that might make your games cost more on Nintendo's newest platform, how 1-2 Switch let a blind man and his wife play games together for the first time in over a decade, give a shout out to diversity in Overwatch, decide if $20 a month is worth it for PS4 games on PS Now and talk about cool games at PAX East!

Last week, nobody had a Switch. This week? Two-thirds of us do! And we spend some time talking about them: how we like the system so far, the controllers, playing handheld and Breath of the Wild of course! But it's not all about Nintendo, of course. We also talk new heroes in Overwatch, VR price drops, answer a ton of listener questions and reveal this month's PlayStation Plus games. We also might have something a little bit special for people that listen all the way to the end of this episode!

Adam, Dylan and Cliff are all back in the same room after Cliff's vacation and there is lots to catch up on! Dylan is super excited about the new Hearthstone expansion, John Cena is promoting the Nintendo Switch everywhere but Seattle, Minecraft sells a bajillion more copies and Microsoft introduces the Xbox Game Pass, which might just be the Netflix of video games. We also answer listener questions and run through this month's Games with Gold!

Cliff is at Disneyland, so Adam and Dylan are doing this one solo...er duo! This week we talk about Playstation exclusive Horizon Zero Dawn, Xbox exclusive Halo Wars 2, For Honor, guilty pleasure games, more Nintendo Switch news (it's only eight days away!) and the possibility of a new Sony handheld!

It's lucky number 13! Or, as Dylan informed us, a baker's dozen of episodes. In this episode, Adam is sad that South Park: The Fractured But Whole was delayed, Valve moves from Greenlight to Steam Direct, Vinny wonders what we think the most underrated games of this generation are, Costume Quest gets a TV show, Ryan wonders about the impact of E3 being open to the public, Playstation Now loses a lot of devices and Apocolypse Now drops it's Kickstarter campaign. We also talk about what is free on Games with Gold starting today!

Episode 12 (or as Dylan puts it, our "dozenth" episode" was stuffed full of gaming goodness! We talked about our experiences with Resident Evil 7 VR, Call of Duty's new Zombie Rave mode and dug into sales numbers for the NES Classic, Super Mario Run and GTA V. We discussed if Conan Exiles endowment slider measures up and dug deep into our feelings on DLC.

Episode 11 was a big one! We talked about the Apocalypse Now game Kickstarter, the Overwatch Chinese New Year event, what's coming up at EVO 2017 and how you can help vote on the final game included in the competition. We also discussed the future and past of Super Smash Bros as a competitive eSport and how Nintendo's console decisions may have impacted it. Finally, we talk about getting Adam into RE7 in VR and if Resident Evil took advantage of a lack of Silent Hill (and other survival horror games in general) to it's best advantage.

Hey, we made it to ten episodes, or as Dylan calls it a decade of episodes. We're pretty sure that isn't right.It was a bit of a light news week, but we talked about Steam updates, speculation about the new game coming out from Limbo and Inside developer Playdead and new (awesome) hires at EA Motive. We also took a deep dive into difficulty levels in games and when hard is just too hard.
