JoyPad Podcast

On this week's episode of JoyPad, in anticipation for the Last of Us 2, which comes out tomorrow, we take some time to reminisce about the Last of Us, and what makes it such a great game. We also discuss some of our hopes, thoughts, and fears of what the Last of Us 2 will contain.

In this week's episode, we discuss our origins as gamers, and talk about the games that solidified us as nerds. What is the first game that had a huge effect on us? What is the first game that we beat without any outside help?  What's a game that has stuck with us ever since our youth? Tune in to find out!

Today's discussions: Length of game vs. cost. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater! Coincidentally enough, we recorded this BEFORE the announcement of THPS 1+2 Remaster. Therefore, we would like to take FULL credit for the entire thing. You're Welcome. Also, Catlateral Damage!

In this episode, we take a deep dive discussion into the subject of loot boxes in games. The good (mostly), but also the bad, and the ugly. 

Multiple playable protagonists in games! Morality choices, and how they affect things that come after! P.T, the greatest demo ever made for a game that never came out! This episode features our fourth member, Megan, who unfortunately could not make it for Episode One.
