Game Time With Manny

We have huge news stories this week such as Toys for Bob being relegated to COD hell and Stadia adding a search bar.

We've been playing a lot of video games, and we chat about them!

This week the gods smiled down at me and gave me all the news I deserve. Did you see the Tales of Arise trailer, or hear me yelling about the Great Ace Attorney? If you did, get ready to listen to it all over again!

Matt and I finished up It Takes Two and I've been thoroughly enjoying Disco Elysium!

This week there is very little news, and Matt talks about Kaze and the Wild Masks. We finish off with a March Madness style bracket of Nintendo games!

I may come back to this and do timestamps, but right now I need to fit in as much Monster Hunter as possible!

We begin the episode by looking back at 1992 and checking out a Sonic 2 preview. Matt and I have been keeping up with the same games, but I bring a new one to the table as well.

To finish it off we pull from Frosty and chat about the Sly Cooper franchise.

The time has come again for Matt and I to talk about video games. There is a new Ninja Turtles game coming out and I'm hype as hell.

Matt has continued his oddysey of trying random games he's suggested by Game pass, and I played like 30 hours of Loop Hero.

To finish we chat it up about the Ratchet and Clank franchise.

Thankfully this week the audio is back to normal, so everyone can safely listen again. The news is a bit light, but there are rumors of a hot new Switch with an OLED screen. I am VERY excited.

I've been on the same games and Matt has been trying to find something that interests him. It's not going great.

To finish we pull a game out of Frosty. This time it is Hotline Miami. So, you can listen to me talk about how I didn't like it very much!

Sadly something goofed and my audio quality this recording is terrible. Instead of using my mic the podcast platform we use changed to my webcam mic. So, if you use headphones maybe avoid this episode.

Outside of that we talked about a ton of news, chat about Persona 5 Scramble, and then chat about Mario 64. Overall it's a good episode outside of my god awful audio quality.

I decided not to do timestamps this time.
