Gamers Over 50 Podcast

The world wide phenomenon of Pokemon Go happened starting in 2016 and is still going today! BB and I discuss our "unofficial rules of Pokemon Go", talk about our experience with the game and give reccomendations!

Directional keys in gaming have been around from the arrow keys to WASD (What A Silly Direction) and now that you can use the mouse and keyboard it gives PC gaming a new levl of control! This is also BB's first game review as she adds on to Gamers (see episode 83) for Stardew Valley!

For a while I have been doing this podcast on my own, and changing the format to reviews has been great but it needed something. I found that something in my new podcast partner Bibi! This is an introduction to BiBi and we will be doing addendums to the first few game reviews and then playing games together going forward!

Fortnite is not just a shooting game with Battle Royale but it is 5 more game modes! It is also one of the hottest games out there since 2017! It is also one of the first shooter games I have reviewed!

Mario Kart has been around forever, well since the SNES and it has become one of the big games that is developed for new Nintendo platforms. It may be the greatest racing game ever created and I loved going down memory lane when doing this review!

Madden NFL or just Madden is the cornerstone of sports video games. John Madden was an icon in every facet of football and he brought his charisma and passion to everything he did in football and life. If you love the NFL then this is the perfect companion to your weekly subscription of games, your fantasy football roster and all of your team gear/clothing! It will definitely get you through the offseason and let your team win the super bowl (try Rookie mode first)!!!

The first game review is Stardew Valley, one of the greatest games ever made! Developed by Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone, and still getting updates, enjoy the review!

Gamers Over 50 has been a lot of fun researching and learning about games and genres of games. Then I hit a wall on developing content...so I just played a lot of games!

I started to think about games, then specifically games for us over 50. Should I play this game, do I need better hardware or different hardware? Is the pace of the game too fast or slow, do I have enough time to play the game or other factors.

I also realized some games have me sitting and clicking way too much. Do I need to sit in front a monitor to the point I get eye strain, or I sit way too much!

I put together some factors and am going to take some of the games I have played and put these factors in play to help give a better view of games for those over 50!

The interesting and obscure of the Christmas holiday was on my mind today and I took to the interweb to find some fun facts you can tell others any year, but especially this year. I also tried to track Santa with NORAD while recording!

So I am traveling like a majority of people this holiday season and while I may not go over an ocean or continent to continent and get stuck on a deserted island. I could get stuck in an airport or at our rental without electricity! I thought about grabbing a book to read or reread or a movie to watch or rewatch and some of the games I can travel with that would be great in an airport, at the house without power or along the way!
