Game Bytes Show

In what is surely our bleakest episode, Jeremy plays the new Final Fantasy XV: A New Empire city-building game and declares "everything is meaningless." However, he recovers from his darkness to help Jerod discuss Secret World Legends, and we hear about the new Titanfall 2 update, as well as The Witcher 3: Blood and Wine. Legrande has some new games in his hands!

As prophecy foretold, the GameBytes Show crew is back to set you on the path of knowledge, with the latest in video game news, new releases, and discussion topic! However, in a twist of fate, the news this week is handled by LeGrande, who rolls out possibly our best news segment of all time! Jeremy handles the new releases, and we get the Jerod Picks for the summer Steam Sale. Finally, we discuss some of those delisted video games that the world simply must get back. Do you agree?

Jeremy and LeGrande do a tag-team combo on video games this week, discussing what's been on our gaming agenda! LeGrande's bluff is called on Heroes of the Storm, but he also notes the contrast between Battlefield 1 and ABZÛ, enjoying both. Jeremy flushes Moon Hunters out into the open, and also gets to talk about the Battletech closed beta.

We're coming down off all that hype from E3 with the "regular old" video game news you're accustomed to... and we totally BRING IT. A quick recap of the big takeaways from E3, and then we jump right into the latest from 2016's coolest franchises, a big loss for the GTA5 modding community, Atari gets back into hardware, and some burning questions about Mario are finally answered. We spend a bit of time in new releases, and then we wrap it up with a discussion of E3 vaporware and disappointments of yesteryear.

E3 has happened, and it's time to stand to account. Jerod, LeGrande, and Jeremy run through the major press conferences of E3 week, and discuss the good (and the not-so-good) of video gaming's high holy week. Which footage and announcements piqued our interest at the expo in 2017? Listen in and compare your notes with us!

What time is it? It's GAMES time! On this episode, LeGrande takes up the Mass Effect Andromeda Mantle. He compares his experience with Dale, who has completed his journey as Pathfinder and gives his final thoughts on it. Dale also digs into the Tamriel-themed CCG, The Elder Scrolls: Legends. Jeremy riffs on that, and continues the games he's been playing... He played Cave Story+ on Switch for his first time ever, and also delves deep into the complex systems of outer space 4X game Endless Legend 2. There's also some unintelligible whistling.

It's the week before E3 2017 and we have a week of "pretty good, mostly adequate" news to share! But we do it oh so well, illuminating you about the Nintendo Switch online program, updates to Pokemon Go and Steam, upcoming releases for Oculus, LEGO Dimensions, Need for Speed, and more! We cover the new releases and freebies for June 2017! In our final segment we prognosticate about E3 at the end of the coming week, and what we might see or hear. Who is Chawbone?

It's games time! In this episode Jerod, LeGrande, and Jeremy discuss the video games they've played this week! LeGrande kicks it off with Werewolves Within on PSVR, along with Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers for Nintendo Switch. Jerod has been digging into sandbox MMO Black Desert Online and talks about the Igavania-roguelike sidescroller Dead Cells. Jeremy hails the micro-setpiece style of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Jeremys it up in Overwatch, gets into the ARMS Global Test Punch, and carefully makes a strong recommendation for What Remains of Edith Finch.

Dale and Jeremy cover the news of the week, including Project Scorpio AR/VR, the Mixer streaming service, From Software rumors, Overwatch and Red Dead Redemption, and.... how much fun will Neil deGrasse Tyson spoil in his new game?

In our most non-game-reference-filled episode yet, Dale and Jeremy discuss the games they've been playing. Dale leads with super-secret Frozenbyte experimental game Jack Claw, and gets into the fatty middle part of Mass Effect Andromeda. Cauliflower head is not that cool. Jeremy gets into the "MOBA spectrum" with Dropzone, and finally gets in line with Nintendo and the Switch, and is impressed how Nintendo respects the player in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
