Game Bytes Show

In this week's news episode we cover Sony's most recent State of Play event, along with some allegations of theft. Apple makes xCloud (and Stadia) a practical impossibility. Microsoft may have TWO next-gen consoles launching this year. Yoshinori Ono has plans outside of Capcom. One kid gets a hold of mom's credit card on Twitch, and more! There are no new releases, but we talk about whether the east/west game release divide still exists!

This week's episode features a gruesome twosome of Dale and Jeremy talking about GAMES. The games they played this week, in fact. Dale covers the board-game-to-PC-game adaptation of Space Hulk (pretty sure we either have or have not covered this one before) and has to set the licensing record as straight as he can. Jeremy played the technical test beta for Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout (not to be confused with the old Lee Majors TV show, Jeremy), and describes the defeat-focused gameplay that just keeps bringing him back. Intro: "Everybody Falls (main theme)" - Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout Outro: "March of the Blood Angels (theme)" - Space Hulk Check out our Discord community at https://discord.gg/ZTzKH8y Podcast audio produced by Jeremy Lamont

This week's news meanders a bit, but we make sure your core needs are being addressed: the need for gaming news. This episode covers Microsoft's response to our questions about Xbox Game Pass. We discuss mod support in the Epic Games Store. Ubisoft SORT OF addresses public demand for their franchises, and Metal Gear Solid 5 players reach a peaceful conclusion, sort of. Plus, new releases and all of August's freebies, and we discuss the most game-changing mods we've enjoyed in the past!

In this week's episode we dig into a handful of very different (yet strangely contiguous) games to talk about! First, LeGrande gets into World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth. It's an MMO with a tinge of tentacle talk. Dale talks about his experience with The Lord of the Rings Online, continuing the swords-and-magic MMO theme and revisiting an oldie-but-maybe-goodie. Finally, Jeremy returns to tentacles with Carrion on Xbox Game Pass, and makes a sideways jaunt to other blobby appendages with the full release of Teenage Blob. Intro: "Guitar Zero" - Teenage Blob, by the Superweaks Outro: "LOTRO Legacy" - Lord of the Rings Online, by Chance Thomas Check out our Discord community at https://discord.gg/ZTzKH8y Podcast audio produced by Jeremy Lamont

It's time to catch our breath from non-E3 2020 and take stock of what's been happening. Microsoft had their event, and also close Mixer. Ninteno suffers a deep probe-and-release, and Ubisoft hints at their next-gen price point. Half the kids in America are playing one game, and GabeN has been off the radar for a while. Plus, new releases and some sales and freebies, and we square up the PS5 and Xbox Series X based on their respective showings in recent weeks.

We return true to our final form, with another podcast of games impressions with a 3-man crew. This time we get into a hoof-in-mouth brawl with Them's Fightin' Herds, we love good strategy but tire of anime in Fire Emblem Awakening on the 3DS (in 2D), and we try out the new battle royale game Hyper Scape from the Ubisoft Forward open beta!

This week, the mid-July power duo Dale and Jeremy get down to business with leisure. It's video game time! Dale delves into The Legend of Grimrock 2 for some good old-fashioned dungeon crawling, but with that classic "farmer eats food to gain XP" twist. Jeremy takes a quick trip to the banana republic of Tropico 2 for the weekend, and comes away with an appreciation for the delicacy of the position of presidente-for-life! Intro: "Main Theme" - Legend of Grimrock 2, by Perttu Vanska, Hannu Honkonen, & Henri Vartio Outro: "Friday Fiesta" - Tropico 6 Check out our Discord community at https://discord.gg/ZTzKH8y Podcast audio produced by Jeremy Lamont

In this week's games podcast, LeGrande checks into a game that attempts (we think?) to go for quality over quantity with Trine 3. Dale moves himself into Animal Crossing New Horizons, and his enthusiasm is palpable. Jeremy tries out the limited-time open beta for Dark-Souls-alike Mortal Shell.
