Power Brick

It's been exactly a year now since the first episode of the Power Brick Podcast was recorded, so what better way to celebrate than by drinking some Hennessey, recounting some stories from Vegas, and breaking down our favorite news from E3.

There's been a lot of awful characters we've dealt with through the years, and in this episode, we discuss why we just hate Silver the Hedgehog, Venom Snake, and many others. We cover a ton of news in this one, lead by the all the new info released by Hideo Kojima about the upcoming Death Stranding.

IT'S DAME TIME. On this edition of the show, we get a recap of Daryl's suffering from the NBA Playoffs, go back to play some CLASSICS, figure out why crabs are being thrown at competitors, and talk about how much we just LOVE Mass Effect Andromeda, during our discussion of open worlds in games.

No formal show topic this time, but we still talk a whole lot about games like Sekiro and DMC5, before delving into a ton of gaming news. RIP WATERMELON KICKSTART (2016 - 2019)

GUYS, MELEE IS DEAD! The gaming industry has been mad poppin' lately, so we've got a ton of news to talk about in this XL episode. We talk more about how battle royale games have taken over our lives, and then close off by discussing all our favorite and least favorite DLCs and expansion packs.

Apex Legends and Tetris 99 have taken over the world, so it seems to be an appropriate time to discuss the battle royale genre. We've also got a ton of games to talk about, and a ton of news to cover, in what has been a very, uh, interesting month for the gaming industry.

After over a month hiatus, we're back with a shorter show to give a little catch-up on what games we've been playing and take a look at a bunch of the gaming news we've missed in the meantime. Turns out that 2K and EA are horrible companies, who woulda guessed?

 

*SORRY FOR THE BACKGROUND NOISE IN THIS ONE. WE RECORDED IN A FRIEND'S GARAGE THAT HAD A BUNCH OF LOUD BIRDS*

It's the end of the year, so it's time to cap it off with our special Awards Show edition of the podcast, where we crown the Game of the Year, along with the winners of a few other categories!

So Death Stranding didn't get a release date. In this wholly unprepared and unprofessional (well, more so than usual) episode of the podcast, we basically discuss all things Game Awards 2018, where we didn't get any Death Stranding news. The Game Awards as a whole seems to really be coming into its own as a great awards show, regardless of entertainment medium. But did we mention that Death Stranding wasn't there?

We're now over 2 weeks removed from Fallout 76 and it seems like the game may have redefined what it means to be busted. But that's okay, because it turns out that Red Dead 2 and Pokemon Let's Go are really good games to play in the meantime. Who woulda known? We end off the show to talk about some of the most memorable bugs and glitches we've experienced in games.

MAKE SURE TO TUNE IN TO OUR SPECIAL 2018 VIDEO GAME AWARDS EDITION OF THE SHOW ON DECEMBER 20TH! (Start time pending)
