Starting Point

Brian puts down his rock and Corey puts down his sword for a civilized chat about their love of gaming.  And by chat, I mean complete derailment of everything logical and pure. In all seriousness, we take this hot second to thank you all, the listeners, and wish you all the very happiest of holidays - however you spend it.

Here is that Seagulls video Corey wants you to watch.

Brian and Corey are discussing the results of The Game Awards.  As you would expect, Corey is ecstatic and Brian is less than enthused.  Quick aside, Brian is having technical issues so this episode is not exactly a technical achievement.  Thanks for your patience.

Brian & Corey are beginning their second century of podcasts on a professional note.  No, you're right, that doesn't sound like them at all.  The guys are talking this week about the nominations for this year's The Game Awards.  The show is being held on December 1st this year.  While this is happening, Brian is also playing with the new version rollout of Zencastr, including pushing all the default sound effects on the in-browser sound board.

Brian and Corey are celebrating their 100th episode in style.  The guys are joined by Podcaster Extraordinaire Jeff Cannata.  Two Blizzard fanboys and Brian are talking all about Blizzcon 2016, including all the games, Thomas Middleditch, and Weird Al's performance.

Please note: There was a slight audio hiccup with Corey's stream so if it doesn't match up perfectly, that's on Brian's editing skills.

Brian and Corey are discussing Bethseda's latest policy change where they "want we want everyone ... to experience our games at the same time."  We talk about the policy and its impact on the industry as well as the Destructoid article where it shows the places where Bethseda has some wiggle room.  We also talk about people getting pink eye from sharing VR headsets at cons and expos.

As fate would have it, our now-normal night of Wednesday to pdocast was interrupted and canceled at the last moment.  Fortunately, the wait proved to be fruitful.  Brian and Corey had an opportunity to watch the newly-named Nintendo Switch trailer and the new Red Dead Redemption 2 teaser.  We speculate on both trailers as well as discuss the third party support Nintendo announced it has for the Switch.

With a moratorium on discussing No Man's Sky, the episode seems to run a bit short.  Brian and Corey discuss the PlayStation 4 Pro and the announcement of SATA 3.0 support, which led to DualShock 4 controllers being native to Steam, which led to Steam Link being included as an app on future Smart TVs.  ...which somehow led us back to Blizzard and the Halloween skins in Overwatch.

Even though Brian sounds like he talking through a cardboard tube, he and Corey discuss needing the physical Call of Duty Infinite Warfare disc in the console to play Modern Warfare Remastered.  They guys also discuss the Google DayDream VR before rehashing last week's topics of No Man's Sky - this time regarding their subreddit - and Digital Homicide - who are no longer suing Steam users.  We wrap up the show with announcements from Limbic Entertainment and Brian goes off over Overwatch again.

Brian and Corey are talking this week about the rumor of Destiny 2 coming to PC.  Corey's already pre-ordering.  Brian wants a story first.  The guys are also on opposite sides of the No Man's Sky argument once again.  This time it is in regards to a UK agency looking into false advertising claims on No Man's Sky.
