There is a common thread that we have brought up many times. Games are changing and forever evolving. But there is something that remains a constant, and that is we want our games to be fun. Although the level of fun in games seems to be dropping with our new larger games. There is something to be said about simple games that it is easier to see the fun in them. Games were made to be shared and enjoyed with friends in groups like at arcades or in schools. Now that games have become an individual experience, has the fun gone with them? -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

The state a gaming reviews needs a change. The number system just does not work and too many big critics out there are reviewing game genres that they do not even like. So, we are getting biased reviews and only large games with big budgets are getting the attention when many smaller titles that are evolving their respective genre are being left behind. There has to be a better way. And maybe, just maybe there already is one out there in practice. -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

Demos have changed so much over the years. From the disks you would get in the back of a magazine, or the ones you could get from pizza hut; to now with early access or the ability to play a game for x amount of hours. But the question is do demos still have that. same magic they. once had. They used to be an event or something to look forward to. Now they fall a little flat sometimes and some games feel as if they are making us the players their own personal QA team. Needless to say things have changed. -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

Chris has finished Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. So, this week we dive into the changes and everything that stood out to him in his play through. This game holds a special place in our hearts as listeners will know. So, does that spark, that magic carry over into this new title. Will it carry the torch of the original. Or is it just. an okay game that will get forgotten inn the flood of amazing RPGs that have come out this year. -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

Hello all and welcome back! So, there has been a game that has taken over the internet for a bit here and that is Balatro. If you love card games, a bit or randomness and strategy you are going to love this one. We knew we would enjoy this title, but didn't know just how much! This game is so surprising at first glance it felt like a simple fun experience. But there iis so much to explore and discover in this game! But there is a dark side to Balatro. Shortly after it's release it's rating got changed to 18+ due to "gambling". This rating change caused it to be removed from store fronts and really came as a shock. But luckily it did not slow down the popularity of this great game. -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

It is with a heavy heart that we come to you this week with some horrible news. We have lost a hero, a legend, an icon, Akira Toriyama. He has inspired multiple generations across anime, manga and games. His style is so memorable that no one can mistake his work. You often hear about people and celebrities passing, but for us this one has hit so hard. Toriyama's work has sculpted our childhoods and has inspired us in ways that we may not even know yet. He will be missed, but never forgotten. Toriyama's legacy will live on forever, inspiring generations for years to come. -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

Hey there Cubies! Video game movies hold a special place in our hearts. Some are actually pretty good, but its always a surprise when they are. But most are just awful and really run away from the source material. Max Payne is no different! This is a certain kinda bad, confusing and all that crazy stuff. As usual it had an all star cast but they just could not deliver in the end. From a story that leads no where to the longest bullet time scenes ever, super soldiers, angels, junkies, revenge plots there is a lot to take in here. -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

Hey there Cubies! The game mechanics we are diving into this week are backtracking and fast travel. The topic of back tracking can be a bit of a sore subject for some gamers out there. It has been said that backtracking in games is due to a lack of assets and is just a waste of time for the player. But while for some games that may be the case, it is not always. Looking at the designer's intent there are plenty of time in which going through areas you have already gone through can have significance for the over all story. -------- Follow the link bellow to go to our various socials and be sure to join the Discord to talk with us and the community directly.

Hey there cubies! Not matter how hard we try we can just not get away from AI. It is becoming integrated in every career field whether we like it or not. Most gaming companies seem to be shying away from it, but there is one giant out there that is openly advocating for it, and that is Square Enix. With some truly amazing stories and games made by this studio like the Final Fantasy Series it came as a shock that they are pushing so hard to aggressively integrate AI into their development process.
