GRcade

This is the GRcade Pre E3 2018 Podcast. The host Karl is joined by Hyperion, Kerr9000, and Lexman. Hyperion tells us what his favorite games are in order to introduce himself to the podcast. Then Kerr9000 talks about Microsoft and what he both expects and wants out of them in terms of E3. Lexman fills everyone in on two upcoming games that he is looking forward to, these are the new Hitman 2 and Cyberpunk 2077. Finally Hyperion leads a discussion on what he expects from Nintendo during there E3 Podcast.

Sorry that this is pretty late, everyone! My bad. This is the first of a series of podcasts focusing on games development, tech news, and nerd culture. The host Karl is joined by Earfolds, Lex-Man, and OrangeRakoon. The guests tell us why they're in to games development and what they're working on at the moment. OrangeRakoon gives us an in-depth look at the new Nintendo Switch "dockless" option in Japan, and then Earfolds presents the Xbox Adaptive Controller and wider progress on accessibility in videogames. The podcast ends on a discussion concerning how accessibility and representation fit with both developer intent and audience expectation. Music: Bensounds - Endless Motion

Stop the presses: Many congratulations from the GRcade Podcast team to Starquake for releasing Hyper Sentinel! GRcade is proud of you.  Karl introduces the new season of the GRcade Podcast. Alongside veteran guest Pedz, we hear from Kerr and Taf for the first time. Taf discusses Frostpunk, a psychologically impactful city-builder with arctic and steampunk themes. What does a game have to do to present an effective moral quandary? Kerr is a long-time X-COM fan and tells us why he's returned to the series. Pedz gets everyone angry about Nintendo's online services. Finally, we discuss E3 hype for RAGE 2 and Metroid Prime 4.

I think it's a really solid start to the season, so thanks to the three who joined me for this episode. From now on the podcast will be coming out roughly once a fortnight. We have a really diverse cast lined up, with a lot of different interests, so we should be able to offer a lot of variety on the show in the coming months. As always, please comment & let us know what you think. All feedback welcome, even if you think it's a load of shite, let us know why!

Nintendo are dooo-ing quite well for themselves?! Karl, Kris (aka Cuttooth), and Adam (aka Ad7) are back again to discuss how Nintendo's 2017 took them by surprise with two massive achievements in the form of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey on the little Android tablet that could. Is this Nintendo back to their best? Where can they go from here and what does 2018 hold for them? Can anyone actually name most of the Mario Odyssey Kingdoms?

It's all change on The GRcade Podcast... sort of... Karl's back to head up a slightly different, more in-depth look at some topics we've had on our minds.
