This Week on The Casual Hour...
As May comes to a close, The Casual Hour heats up with our June preview. Problem is, June might not be the best month for game releases this year. Bobby, Chase and Johnny try and pick the wheat from the chaff while anticipating the upcoming E3. Meanwhile, for games we’ve been playing, Chase is reigniting his love for two old classics - Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine. Bobby is in a state of bliss with State of Decay 2. And Johnny’s ready to take another stroll through Blighttown in Dark Souls: Remastered. All that and more on this edition of The Casual Hour.

May 22, 2018 Episode 102 - Drunken Senpai
This Week on The Casual Hour...
We take a walk down memory lane as we look back at E3 2017 to see how things actually shook out. Some things worked out OK (Monster Hunter, God of War, Dragon Ball FighterZ) while some decidedly did not (Sea of Thieves, Far Cry 5, Star Wars Battlefront 2). Meanwhile, Chase has been giving some small 3DS eShop games a look and Bobby commits an original sin for the second time. All that and more on this edition of The Casual Hour.

May 18, 2018 Episode 101 - Fell Victim to Destiny
This Week on The Casual Hour...
We’re on the cusp of E3 talk, but until then, we’ve got other things to talk about: Like games we’ve always meant to finish. Assassin’s Creed, GTA, Final Fantasy, we’ve got all the hits…we just haven’t hit the credits. Meanwhile, Chase is continuing with Destiny and Super Mega Baseball, Johnny’s wrapped up God of War and started some previews of Dark Souls Remastered and Divinity Original Sin 2 and Bobby has picked up a few new Switch games that he’s pretty excited about. All that and more on this edition of The Casual Hour.

May 11, 2018 Episode 100 - Boy Amizich
This Week on The Casual Hour...
Well, we actually did it. 100 episodes (maybe even a handful of decent ones!) And we’ve got something special for this episode: The full cast back is together! Johnny, Chase and Bobby too. And we’re going to be rolling this way going forward. Listen to us argue with, chide and talk over each other — just like old times — as we wonder how the hell we got here. Oh, and we also talk about some video games: God of War, Minecraft, Super Mega Baseball 2, Donkey Country: Tropical freeze and some game called….Destiny? Hm, sounds interesting… All that and more on this 100th edition of The Casual Hour!

May 01, 2018 Episode 99 - Minit by Minit
This Week on The Casual Hour...
Like the old saying goes, April showers bring May…video games? Sure, why not? We’ve got a bevy of games to talk through in our May preview, but how many of them will make the cut into our top picks? Meanwhile, Bobby’s been gaming on the go while he was out town with Chrono Trigger and Owlboy, and has been mainlining God of War and Swords of Ditto when he has been home. Chase, on the other hand has been trying a few new things: Minit, Code of Princess and Butterfly Soup. We’re one away from Episode 100 on this edition of The Casual Hour!

This Week on The Casual Hour...
Pierce Courchaine joins Bobby and Chase as we talk about Sega and M2’s announcement of Sega Ages, a number of classic Sega titles being ported over to the Switch this summer.

April 08, 2018 Episode 95 - Chewy Little Surprise
This Week on The Casual Hour...
Bobby and Chase are still deep into Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom Also, Chase caved and purchased not one, but two different sports games (NBA2K18 and MLB The Show 18) while Bobby continues to punish himself with Far Cry 5. But since we called April a relatively slow month for games last episode, we thought we’d talk about a few of the games we’re resolving to really and truly play from our respective and extensive backlogs.

This Week on The Casual Hour...
We look ahead to the low quantity but high quality games of April and also look back on the biggest successes and busts of March. Bobby’s been walking the plank in Sea of Thieves, exploring Montana in Far Cry 5 and cruising around Paradise City in Burnout Paradise Remastered. Chase is playing an old racing game too, 2010’s Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit. And both guys fall all over themselves to praise potential game of the year candidate Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom.
