You heard it right! KVGT Podcast is BACK!

But that’s not all! This revival is a true flashback to early KVGT circa 2010 with all four original hosts!

That’s right, Jeremy and Patrick are once again going to be joined by OG Hosts Frank and Kevin!

And there’s more. Oh, OH so much more!

Yes, the boys of KVGT are back. But before you get TOO excited, there are a few things you should know.

First and foremost, we’re coming back as a monthly podcast. Right now, that is every 4 weeks. This may change in the future once we get back up and running. We’re all pretty excited for the revival, but we also all have work and families and *shutters* responsibilities now.

But, if I’m being honest, the plan is bi-weekly, that is every other week.

Nope! We’re growing, expanding, and bringing KVGT into the 2020s.

You’ll have to listen to the episode for all the details, but here are a few bullet points to give you an idea of what to expect:

Yeah, our website was trash for many years. Even when we were active in the late 2010s, the site barely functioned, and navigating around was a nightmare.

So I spent a week cleaning up categories (we had 30), tags (we had over 3000. WHAT?), and posts.

We actually have a decent backlog of interesting posts, but they were so far buried unless you happened to visit the website within the first few weeks of us posting that you wouldn’t even know they existed.

But the site isn’t quite done yet. The new blog hub (called Side Quests) is still just a list of everything we’ve posted, without cohesive excerpts or images, all current episodes are poorly formatted, and there are still around 100 episodes of the podcast that are misnamed, and our about page is…sad.

This is all part of the next update I’ll do in the coming weeks, you can call it 3.1 if you’re one of those types of people who love numbers.

It is.

And we’re looking forward to bringing you a new version of KVGT, I think a version we’ve all wanted since the beginning. More variety, more laid back, more of us.

Thanks for joining us once again, and we can’t wait to hear from you after you’ve listened to the first episode!

What can I say, it’s been a few years but we’re back! Kind of…

While we’re hoping to do more episodes in the near future, we’re still discussing internally what that might look like.

And, of course, in classic fashion, I (Jeremy) got sick right after we recorded this and couldn’t upload it until now!

But I’m sure you’ll all enjoy our tribute to E3.

Don’t forget to reach out and let us know if you’ve missed us!

Find out what’s coming out this week, what we’ve been playing, and a bit about what’s been going on in the industry lately!

News

Welcome back! We’re back at it (yet again…again…). We’ll have 2 episodes a month, one on each episode format (see episode 199 and 201 for information on that). This episode we’ll be talking about the future of E3, Sony, and Microsoft in gaming!

This episode is similar to what we did back in 199, so if you’re a long time fan you might notice the difference in format. We’re still moving things around, but if you do have feedback on this, please let me know!

Next Week’s Episode: A “standard” format where we talk about what’s in the news, what’s coming out, and what we’ve been playing.

Thanks for joining us for another episode of the podcast!  Going to be trying something a bit different this episode with the show notes. Instead of typing everything out, I’m just going to copy and paste from our internal document. It still gives all the same information and honestly it has a very “show notes” feel to it.

If you do have feedback on this, please let me know!

News

Next Week’s Episode: We’re going to take a look at Early Access games, Games being released before they’re ready, devs charging for DLC before the base game is even complete, and more.

It’s here and we are so excited! Episode 200 is a special occasion and not only that, but we have a guest host, Kevin! We also have a special friend who sent in a message for our 200th episode. All this and more, so don’t miss this episode!

We didn’t have any news this week or other types of content, this one was mostly just us reminiscing on old episodes, past hosts and guests, and the future.

Well, here it is, our last show before hitting 200. Enjoy this episode and bask in all of its glory!

We talked about Injustice Gods Among Us 2, Gears of War 4, and The Last of Us, but other than that it was a very light episode. No special links this week, but don’t worry! Next week will start our new format where I think there will be a lot more to offer!

There really are not any show notes needed this week, you’ll just have to listen.

What? You think I should still put show notes?

Fine!

We talked about Warframe, Dragonvein Novel Series. That’s it!

Oh, well, technically we also talked about Patrick. Here are all his amazing links:

We also talked a bit about Google’s foray into gaming, Project Yeti!

There. Show notes. Are you happy now?

This weeks episode was a lot of fun to record, now that both me and Patrick have been able to schedule it. Not going to be long winded this week in the show notes, just going to get right into it!

We talked about Far Cry 4, Injustice: Gods Among Us 2, Dead By Daylight, Wolfenstein: The New Order, Friday the 13th, Grand Theft Auto V, South Park: The Fractured But Whole, Gears of War 4, and Destiny 2.

In our what’s caught your eye this week we talked a bit about the new Avenger’s Trailer! You can see it below.

In The News:

We also had a discussion about DLC as brought to us by fan of the show, Ito!

That’s right, we went there, we went old school and borrowed a pretty popular saying during the SNES/Genesis era!

And, in many ways, it was true. Sega had a better console, faster characters, in many ways more interesting games, yet….Sega didn’t have what was most important, nearly as many sales/fans as the SNES!

Anyway, rant aside, let’s get into the episode.
