Game Chat with Tom & Lucas episodes
- S2•E6 - Monetization of Games
Welcome back to Game Chat with Tom & Lucas! In this episode, the boys dive into the wild world of Game Monetization. On top of Lucas learning just what an NFT is and how that could transition into the world of video games' future, they go into the history of in-game transactions, starting at the arcade cabinet. The conversation then follows the path major game companies took to fully maximize any profits they could from their games in ways ranging from single-player game cosmetics, to 'feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment' for absolutely unobtainable unlockables.

57 min - S2•E4 - Some of Gaming's Worst Launches
Welcome back to Game Chat with Tom & Lucas! In this episode, the boys start off in typical fashion, getting into obscure conversations that will always lead back to the point at hand, which is about Video Games that had... less than desirable launches. In honor of the next-gen patch dropping for the infamous Cyberpunk 2077, Tom & Lucas are going to be looking at some games that were bad when they first released, and seeing if they were able to steady their course as time passed. Some of these include; Battlefield 2042, Star Wars Battlefront 2 (the EA/DICE one), No Man's Sky, and more!

55 min - S2•E3 - Video Game AdaptationsWelcome back to Game Chat with Tom & Lucas! In this episode, we bring a topic that was not too fun to research. In anticipation of the new “Uncharted”movie coming out, starring the darling of Hollywood Mark Wahlberg (and some guy named Tom Holland), we did a review of the history of video game adaptations into different forms of tv and film media. After discussing some rather interesting news stories involving teenagers getting arrested in Minecraft and Egyptian drive-in gaming, we get into the "Meat & Potatoes" of the topic. While many adaptations are bad, there are some gems amongst these, as well as some gems that have been created for movies becoming video games. After this all, we give thumbs-ups or thumbs-down to some of the upcoming, highly anticipated video game movie adaptations.Follow us on Instagram: @GameChat_TomLucas Give us some feedback, let us know what you think, and what you want to see covered in the future!

- S2•E2 - Difficulty in Video Games
Welcome back to Game Chat with Tom & Lucas! In this episode, we bring on friend of the podcast Tim Scalona to discuss difficulty in video games. Through the explanation of our exquisite "Pot Pie" episode structure, we dissect the happenings of the gaming world before letting our opinions take over. We discuss the definition of 'difficulty' for a video game and discuss what makes it good versus bad. Since many games allow you to choose which difficulty you play on, it is our job to tell you which is the right way (according to us) to play. Which is better, a cake-walk, or a never-ending gauntlet of frustration? Tune in this week to find out!
