The mid-gen refresh for Sony is now out in the wild and we’ll see how a $700 console holds up out there. Let me be a bit more specific there and say a $700 digital-only console holds up out there. It’ll be fine, really. It’s an option for people who can afford that option and […]

It’s kind of strange how it now feels like we’re done with the year, gaming wise. And I mean as far as releases go. I know there’s likely plenty to fill the shelves in the coming weeks and that Indiana Jones game in December, but…what else? That whole thing about “the coming weeks” is just […]

Sometimes time is all we need. Listen, that line works on a lot of things a whole lot better than I’m using it here, but let’s discuss it in the terms of video games. I’m a massive fan of the Burnout series and in 2008 Burnout Paradise was released. Played it a ton. Online and […]

Just a show note: No new episode next week. We kind of covered a lot in this episode. And not necessarily the news aspect, but just our general gaming habits. For one, I’m looking for a narrative game to play. Currently, I’ve just been dabbling in demos or Burnout games. No common thread or anything, […]

We’re still over here on our classic game kick. And let me say how grateful I am for emulators and the communities of people who maintain them and grow them. It’s the reason that when you see me stream Burnout 3, it looks amazing for a 20 year old game. The community did that. And […]

I know video game showcases, such as Sony’s “State Of Play” earlier this week, are supposed to have something for everyone. And I can only imagine that Sony’s showcase absolutely nailed that since I only came away with excitement for about a little less than half of what they showed off. I’m kind of okay […]

I’ve recently been on a nostalgia trip playing two games I probably haven’t touched in nearly 20 years. The Burnout series has been one of my favorites since the sequel. A game I picked up on a rental just to check it out and completely fell in love with it immediately. And I got other […]

One really quick note before I get into the show post today: If you can emulate your games, do it. Being able to play Burnout 3 on my PC or Steam Deck has been amazing and fun as all hell. I plan to start grabbing a lot of my favorites from the past and get […]

It’s never really good when a game fails. Now, there’s good reasons FOR a game failing, but, I mean, that’s people, with lives and families. And when a game fails now, it’s almost one and done for a studio in that regard. Rocksteady failed with Suicide Squad, but they have 3 pretty big bangers in […]

I know interviews exist with the people at Microsoft. I know there’s people with more info on the subject than I, but it’s not gonna stop me from trying to figure out Microsoft’s idea for buying a studio and releasing on multiple platforms. We’ve looked at this before and it really just comes down to […]
