Greetings and welcome to the Power Gamer Podcast. I’m your host, Mike Dawson, joined as always by fellow hosts Johnny Poulos and Kim Ponticello…

Segment 1: Johnny was excited to see this Borderlands movie. Mike said it made him want to bash himself in the head with a rock. The scores are out - are we still going to see this?

Segment 2: Game Informer suddenly closed shop. A near and dear publication to Mike, who’s been reading the magazine since the 90’s (and was an active subscriber). We tip our cap to the end of major US based video game magazine publications and reminisce on better times.

Segment 3: iD gets it. Enhanced versions of Doom & Doom 2 make their way online. A new episode from iD. Enhancements. Preservation. $10. Kudos iD.

On this week's episode Mike, Johnny, and Kim discuss...

Segment 1: Playing To an Audience

Fun ice breaker topic this week - let’s talk about playing to an audience. In this day and age, this is going to of course be a well known topic amidst streamers, but let’s not forget that often times when playing a game it’s not uncommon to have someone else in the house looking over your shoulder and curious about what you’re playing (or you assuming everyone cares about what you’re playing!) What are things you like about it (if anything), and what are things you HATE?

Segment 2: The Games We’ve Been Playing

Mike: Stellar Blade (Demo), Final Fantasy VII Remake, Dave The Diver

Johnny: FFVII Rebirth, Dave the Diver

Kim: Flipwitch!!; Outlast Trials; Whisker Waters; Deliver Us the Moon (completed); Ad Infinitum (completed); Fallout 76; The Rogue Prince of Persia; Indika
