Hopped-Up 64

This week we look forward to the year 2023. Surely it can't get any worse, right? Right?

We celebrate Matt's completion of Elden Ring by discussing level-scaling, and Jack lets us know Midnight Suns knows her all too well.

We also talk about some New Year's resolutions, some games coming out in 2023, and Matt decides to buy a Steam Deck live on the pod.

Who wants to talk about the Game Awards? No one?

This week we try and figure out what exactly Keighley's "deal" is, before talking about God of War Ragnarok, Darktide, Need For Speed Unbound, and Grounded.

We come to you from the shadow realm this week to discus our game of the month: the prequel to Ska: Hellsinger.

We talk about our ups and downs with Metal:Hellsinger. We also discuss Powerade flavours, tv criticism, and some other general tom-foolery.

Just, like, so much feet talk in this podcast.

Come hang out with the very normal folks as they discuss foot pics, Tunic, Vampire Survivors, foot pics, and Pentiment.

It's us. We're the gamers of the year.

This week we talk about one of the year's top cult indie classics, Elden Ring. Afterwards we dig a bit more into Mike and Jack's time with Warzone 2's DMZ mode, and Norris' time with Pentiment. But first we declare holy war on our new enemy, The Incel Gamer.

We also go through the nominees laid out this past week from The Game Awards, and try to figure out if we're out of touch or, in fact, the children are the ones who are wrong about video games.

You're on the team, or you're off it.

This week the gang is joined by one of our east-coast nemeses, Evan from HUGE! We discuss some God of War Ragnorak, some Tunic, some Genshin Impact, and some Lost Judgment. Everyone also yells at Norris for never having watched Predator, and the Prometheus Defense Squad logs on.

This week we get down to the important stuff: Norris' soda habits. We also talk about sad dad's learning to talk with their son (God of War: Ragnarok), stopping a serial killer through teaching kids to dance (Lost Judgment), running a small business in capitalist hellword (Potionomics), and fighting off the urge to become a large aquatic mammal (Genshin Impact).

This week the gang talks about David Szymanski's indie horror swimmer, Iron Lung! Who knew the quiet rapture would be so much fun!

We also cheer Mike's victories over Sekiro, while booing him for cursing the audio setup.
