Matt and Brandon played a whole lot of Super Mario 35... Only children of the 80s are able to secure the victory. We mainly goof around and take about the effect that Battle Royales have had on Gaming Industry at large. With that said, strap and chain up them wrists and get ready for a long night :)

Matt and Zach continue their quest to find out if they like The Last of Us Part II. We also do our best Predator impression, discuss the merits of flamethrowers, and Steve Buscemi.

In this corner, Brad "Gunstar Hero" Pelangio representing Sega's honour in the console war... and in this corner, Matt "The Hero of Time Management" McGregor fighting for Nintendo's rightful place atop the pantheon of 90's video game royalty... spoiler alert... Brad is wayyyyy wrong. Be on the right side of history folks :)

Trending in video games... Re-Masters. Is this a good thing? Or are major publishers robbing us of backwards compatibility? The Professor joins me for a lovely conversation about the life and times of remaking games.... we go off topic and talk cute anime girls...yeah... yeah *shaking head*

A new challenger enters the arena, Brandon "The Professor" Renelli joins me to complain about difficult games (bunch of babies!). We focus on the emergence of a new sub-sect of games that push back at the player, but reward perseverance... we are looking at you Dark Souls / Bloodborne.

Zach and Matt look upon the remainder of the landscape of gaming for 2017... what big releases will we be enjoying in the next few months. We also get off topic and start talking about the dangers of smoking, as well as a spooky laundromat that Zach must conquer in order to do chores.

Please don't be shy to reach out to us with any negative and positive feedback - We love to get down and dirty with why we aren't as great as we think. Thank you true-believers, and as always, see you on the field.

Be our guest, as we take a break from video games and focus on Chris Nolan's new WWII masterpiece... Dunkirk! Zach takes the wheel for this episode as this is  area expertise... Matt doesn't know what he is talking about, and you will agree 95% of this episode.

Welcome to another Variable GameCast, as we check out the biggest games of the first half of 2017. 2017 has been a super mega ultra championship edition of a year so far and we are only half way through the entire year!
