We bring back Retro reviews this week and talk about Spyro the Dragon.  It's timely...as this September marks the 20th anniversary of the original and the Spyro Reignited Trilogy releases this September. 

During Nibblebits Dan and Will cover and address Fallout 76, and the new Pokemon games Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee and Pokemon Quest.  Last, Dan talks about Pokemon Quest during "What We Played."

Dan and Will preview and make some predictions for this year's E3.  Will Microsoft announce a new console?  Sony a new handheld?  Steam on the Nintendo Switch?  During "What We Played" Will briefly talks about Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition.

Corey's back!!!  At least for one episode anyway, as he and Dan talk about This War of Mine developer's new game Frostpunk.  Corey also updates us on some of the other games he's been playing, like Into the Breach, and Steamworld Heist.  Will talks a bit about his vacation to Florida and Dan won HQ.

Dan is joined this week by his wife Val to talk about the Nintendo Switch port for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze.  It's one they missed when it came out for the Wii U, but has been given a second chance at life on the Switch.  During "What We Played" Dan talk briefly about the switch version of Death Road to Canada.

Dan and Will list their 10 favorite game franchises for the main segment.  During "What We Played" Dan talks about new indie platformer Light Fall.

Eric, Will and guest Mike talk about the newest PS4 heavy hitting exclusive God of War.  An early GOTY favorite and critical darling, God of War takes a more open world, 3-D and cinematic direction, which seems to have paid off.  During what we played, Mike and Eric talk some Fortnite.

It's been awhile since we last covered mobile games, and much has changed since last time.  Hell, there's even gaming focused phones now!

No fake news here, just hard hitting journalism as Dan and Will cover some of the top news stories in gaming this week.  During "What We Played" Dan beat a few games and started Oxenfree.

We welcome Corey back this week to talk about Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom, a game he's actually enjoying.  During "What We Played" Will talks some more Far Cry 5 and Dan played Kirby Star Allies.

Will and Eric discuss the most recent Far Cry game, set in rural Montana where you have to dismantle a dangerous paramilitary cult.  During "What We Played" Dan and Will give brief first impressions of Ni No Kuni 2.
