  • Game Boys, Ep. 230: Gotta Go Cast
    This week, the Game Boys are all about Sanic. Specifically, they are all about the 2020 Sonic the Hedgehog film now streaming on Hulu. Because the only thing the GBs like more than things that move at the speed of sound is things that stream at the speed of sound on services they already subscribe to. Tune in to hear the boys discuss the movie coming from their varying degrees of familiarity with the original property. Just how good can a Sonic movie be, particularly after the fiasco of the original trailer? Will this movie only add to the memes? Find out!

  • Game Boys, Ep. 228: GBBC- The Haunted Mansion
    Welcome, foolish mortals, to another chapter in the Game Boys Book Club! For each month of the year, one of the Boys is picking a game, whether it’s co-op, multiplayer, or not, and all hosts have to play and review it at the end of the month. February's pick was Tim’s, dooming the Boys to play the obscure 2003 title, The Haunted Mansion, based on the Disneyland attraction. Should the Boys be disturbing this forgotten game's remains or does it deserve new life? Join us as we venture into the boundless realm of the supernatural. There's no turning back now!

  • Game Boys, Ep. 227: 5th Anniversary Special
    This week, the Game Boys are celebrating their fifth anniversary as a podcast! Join Alex, Ryan, and Tim as they guess one another's top fives before creating a top five list for the podcast. It's been an amazing five years! Thank you for listening!
    The Rules:
    The Rule of Three- If all Game Boys share an item on their personal list, it is automatically on the Game Boys' collective list.
    The Rule of Two- If two Game Boys share an item on their personal list, it is automatically on the Game Boys' collective list, but the player who didn't include that item gets to eliminate an item off of another player's list, removing it from potential inclusion in the collective list.
    The Rule of Rolls- For all remaining positions on the collective list not filled by the Rule of Three or Two, all three players must roll a D8. A player who rolls a five may automatically insert an item from their personal list. For all other rolls, the player with the roll closest to five gets to insert an item from their personal list, with four and six being the next highest rolls. An exact tie will be settled in a re-roll, whereas if two players roll different numbers of equal distance to five, advantage will be given to the player with the traditionally higher number. However, this is a "Costly Victory," and the player who lost the tie gets to choose the game off of the victor's personal list.

  • Game Boys, Ep. 226: The Era War
    The Game Boys Podcast is about to celebrate its fifth anniversary and has been nothing short of an era in the Boys' lives. That got everyone thinking about eras in gaming and how time should be measured where video games are concerned. To that end, the Game Boys breakdown the history of gaming into eras before delving into which era is the best of all resulting in a fierce debate.

  • Game Boys, Ep. 225: BCD 2- Delete Me, Daddy
    It's no secret that the Game Boys love their games, both the ones that they play and the ones they've made doing this show. One of the latter is BCD (Beat, Complete, Delete), a video game version of FMK and now recurring segment appearing here for its second dedicated episode. See how well the Game Boys know each other as they aim to frame challenging questions to one another in the hopes of making the other each other hurt... or at least make impossibly hard decisions.

  • Game Boys, Ep. 223: Super Smash Bros. Mini
    Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was not overselling itself when it claimed "everyone is here." With the first and now the second Fighter Pass, the number of playable characters in Nintendo's beloved fighter just keeps growing. But what if you limited that roster to just eight or nine characters? Would the experience be diminished or maybe just improve? This week, the Game Boys are reviewing SSBU's Fighter Passes by playing exclusively as the DLC characters. The real catch is that none of the Boys have played any of the new fighters. Tune in and hear their thoughts on the new characters, limiting the game, and the best conclusion to the second Fighter Pass.
