Hopped-Up Gaming: East

It's a new episode of the podcast that is out on the day it's supposed to come out! This one is still hot from the podcasting oven, so enjoy it while it's fresh!

Next week we'll REALLY be back with our first Book Club of the year, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice!

After a brief and not-entirely-intended hiatus, the HUGE Crew returns (with Evan in tow!) to talk about what they've been playing and watching and doing and drinking this week. There's a whole bunch of catching up to do on this one, so what are you reading this for? Dive right in! Next week we'll be back with our first Book Club of the year, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice!

I think we need to reset Google. Sometimes when you use the search function, unexpected things show up in the results...

Anyhoo! Come join Ben, Tim, Matt, and Evan for another lively podcast about beer, video games, flesh pits, Halloween drinks, and more!

I'm not late, you're late! It's just Ben and Tim against the hordes of unclean bugs and facist robots this week, as Ben does his best Helldivers 2 recruitment pitch.

Tim also waxes nostalgic for a game that both has and hasn't happened yet as the guys discuss their hopes and dreams for FFFVII Rebirth when it launches next week. Beer Discussed: Crafty Radler, from Pumphouse Martock IPA, from Schoolhouse

Feral Fox, Wild Ale w/Apricot, from Two Crows

Galaxy IPA, Propeller

This week on the podcast, Matt tests the gang's video game trivia knowledge in order to find out once and for all who are the REAL GAMERS, and who are the NORMIES.

Come listen to find out how Ben, Tim, and Dylan fare in this earth shattering challenge!

Whew, we're done with that Game of the Year stuff for at least... another year? Yeah, that makes sense!

Come join Ben, Tim, and Matt as they get back into the groove of things with some regular old talking about video games and beer! There's some Baldur's Gate 3, some Alan Wake 2, and there's even a card games or two!

It's time to order the list. Wish us luck.

Beer Featured: Ain't nobody got time for that! It's GOTY season!

It's time to gather the best games of 2023, and ruthlessly judge them.

December is Game of the Year homework month! In an effort to try and mix up our GOTY formula a bit, we're addressing an issue we've been feeling with the process, which is that we never actually get to talk about the games on the GOTY double header, we're too busy arguing with each other and plotting coups (and getting drunk).

So to help fix that, we're spotlighting 2 games each week in December, giving us time to just chill and shoot the breeze about some of our favourite games of the year, without the pressure of trying to force a vote before one of us passes out at our desks or run the risk of going so long that we cant post the episode on Spotify (yes, its possible, we've done it).

This week, the games on the docket are Baldur's Gate 3 and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom... or maybe Doctor Who... or Magic The Gathering? Tune in and find out what we thought, and why we think they were something special this year.

A podcast is never late, nor is it early, it arrives precisely when the editor remembers to upload it!"
