With Adam returning from The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses this past weekend, we talk about video game anniversaries.  How do different companies handle their franchises' anniversaries?  What would we ideally like to see from anniversary celebrations?  What don't we want to see in anniversary celebrations?

Featuring Adam, Alex, Angel, and Clay.

Episode 86

In Episode 85 we talk about indie games and indie developers.  What makes a game indie?  What are the pros and cons of developing an indie game?  Is indie gaming the wave of the future?

Featuring Adam, Alex, and Angel.

Episode 85

In case you missed it, listeners, E3 2012 happened last week.  Now that the show is over, we've thought long and hard about our opinions.  Here they are.

Featuring Adam, Alex, Angel, and Clay.

Episode 84

Adam and Angel watch and comment on Nintendo's E3 2012 Software Showcase.  Nothing really unexpected.  It did seem like there weren't really that many games demoed though...  Oh well.  At least we have some good 3DS games on the horizon.

Featuring Adam and Angel.

E3 2012 - Nintendo 3DS Software Showcase

Adam and Angel watch and comment on Sony's E3 2012 press conference.  The conference was neither great nor terrible.  No surprises.  Some good games, some bad games.

Featuring Adam and Angel.

E3 2012 - Sony Press Conference

Adam and Angel watch and comment on Ubisoft's E3 2012 press conference.  You thought last year's host, Mr. Caffine, was bad?  Well say hello to Aisha Tyler, professional forced awkward moment creator.  If you can manage to listen through her though, Ubisoft announced some pretty good looking games.

Featuring Adam and Angel.

E3 2012 - Ubisoft Press Conference

Adam and Angel watch and comment on Guns n' Sports 2012, I mean, EA's 2012 E3 press conference.

Featuring Adam and Angel.

E3 2012 - EA Press Conference

E-maaaaaaails!  This week we switch it up a bit and read e-mails first (keep 'em coming!).  After that, Angel poses a question: why do people automatically assume that games that don't have traditionally realistic graphics are "kiddy," immature, boring, and/or bad and aren't even worth trying out?  Is this shared assumption dictating the art styles that developers use in their games?

Featuring Adam, Alex, and Angel.

Episode 83

What began as an episode without a topic ended up being a two and a half hour episode about every topic.  Ever.  In Episode 82, we talk about everything from The Avengers to E3 to next gen to the gaming industry to graphics vs. art style and more.  Sit down, strap in, and take it (in the ears).

Featuring Adam, Alex, and Angel.

Episode 82

As a follow-up to last week's episode, guest hosts Will, Chase, and Lisa join Adam to talk more in-depth about Mass Effect 3 and the (mostly) awesomeness that is the game.  In addition to talking about the game's ending, we discuss the game, and eventually series, as a whole, amazing experience.

Featuring Adam, Will, Chase, and Lisa.
