Somehow it took us two years to cover only our second walking simulator game, but we saved it for one of the best. Today we talk about Firewatch one of the most prolific indie games of the 2010's. Eric rides an elevator. Nigel nails the outro.

It's official: we now have an established tradition of sharing our most anticipated games of the year, and this year we're going cover the year of our Lord 2025. Nigel goes through puberty. Eric has a good idea.

As another year on Earth comes to an end, we review a year of gaming in 2024 by revisiting our most anticipated games for the year and discuss our personal highs and lows of games we played. We also do our first annual Christmas game exchange! Join the Pixel Snobs as we say goodbye to another wonderful year in the world of video games.

A long overdue episode of Pixel Snobs has finally arrived. With Eric out being a new dad (or whatever) Nigel is joined by Pixel Snobs' #1 fan: Adam Walker! We discuss one of Adam's favorite games of all time "Shadow of the Colossus" one of the staples of gaming history. Adam collects some coins. Nigel gives us the official Pixel Snobs presidential endorsement.

The long-awaited sequel to our surprise hit of an episode has finally arrived: Quick Games for Busy Adults Vol. 2! Nigel and Eric return to the front porch, crack open some cold ones (Yoo-Hoos of course), and share the games that any grown-up with a hectic life can fit into their schedule.

Grab your scuba tanks because we're finally talking about "Dave The Diver", a casual RPG about exploring the ocean, catching fish, and making sushi, beloved by both of us (but especially Eric). Nigel goes Godzilla, Eric shares his true feelings on Tunic.

After an accidental hiatus (sorry!) we have returned to wrap up our mini-series on Kentucky Route Zero! Join us as we discuss the final moments of the game that inspired the creation of Pixel Snobs. Nigel has Great Expectations. Eric introduces us to Stephen Jackson.
