Gaming Under Fire

Recording on the day of a horrific tragedy in Jacksonville FL. Prayers from the Tazzman family to the family and friends affected by this horrific incident. We also talk the HCS 2K and upcoming teams headed to London. The "Go Fight Covenant Challenge" is still taking sign ups via the Discord! Go check it out and sign up. We got an announcement on the retail update for MCC and date it's coming to GamePass (hint: it's the same day). We take a look at the behind the making of Fireteam Raven, discuss where the missions land in the CE campaign. Also we get a bit of the Halo: Silent Storm reading courtesy of Steve "Master Chief" Downes. I also go over the new Forerunner Slayer gametype (it's Splinter Nade Nonesense).

Very very very slow week of news. But there was quite the debate on Twitter about button combo glitches in Halo. Are they cheating or are they not? I weigh in on what I think. That's the majority of the discussion in what I believe to be the shortest podcast to date! Don't forget the Go Fight Covenant Challenge and you can sign up on the Bad At Halo Show discord.

After a week off, I'm back in the hot seat talking all sorts of different Halo goings on! Including the TeaBag Tazzman Tournament, announcement of hte next tournament, MS Store tournaments now a year old, and why I don't care about the HCS anymore. The Halo TV show news has split the community...again. Yet another new Halo novel was announced, and we have a LOT of homework to complete before Halo Infinite. The MCC Insider program opened up to EVERYBODY...and they're having population problems...WTF? So they decide to turn to Team Hardcore...WTF? I've got some ideas on why I don't like it, but blame someone for it you may not expect.

Not a lot going on in the world of Halo news. Thankfully I still have the Halo Legendary Loot Crate review that I missed from last week to hold us over. How does series 2 end with "Truth Foretold?" Also talk a little HCS and how it's really lost my interest and why. Also take a look at some of the playlist shake ups this past week and why they aren't good, but were needed. Somehow we get a regular length show out of that :)

I bring in Dr. Kelli Dunlap aka former Grifball Hub exec. Goosechecka! Dr. Goose is a doctor of Psychology with a Masters in Game Design. A great guest to address some of the stigmas and sterotypes of gamers, gaming disorder, and what that means for those of us who enjoy gaming! After that I go over the previous week in the HCS, including the return of a logn time Halo pro to the competitive scene. We go thru some community content, and then I bring back the running riot segment. If you agree or disagree with my rant, please email me at [email protected]

Consider this episode ESSENTIAL listening prior to this weekends HCS Lan event in New Orleans. I sat down to shoot the breeze with esports expert and just all around awesome guy WARDOG. We break down the groups, give our thoughts on the teams, the matchups, make some predictions, and WD gives us an education on Gears esports. We also learn a few things about the nicknames of the city of New Orleans and famous people who call Louisiana home!

A rather slow news week this past holiday week. I do announce a new place to find the show, welcome iHeart Radio to the stable of platforms to find the show! But we did get the last Gamebattles 2K tournament before MLG New Orleans. MCC Flight #3 began which now includes Campaign, Custom Games, Forge, and Theater. I'll recount my experiances in the areas that I attempted this past week and find they still have a long way to go. Also a quick run down of the very small Community Update and a very special and different type of Halo tournament announcement!

It's been a tough week personally, but the show must go on! And there is plenty to talk about this week! We've had our first Gamebattle 2K tournament, some HCS team changes, and a Halo Wars 2 league crowns a new champ. We dive into some of the highlights of the MCC Insider recap, look into the community update, and discuss the Gaming Disorder discussions from the past week.
