We’ve been training for this moment: a year of staying home with butts planted on couches. 2020 was full of DOOM Eternal, Animal Crossing, Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, Genshin Impact, and more.

Join us for a battle of the consoles with our returning guest, Marc. We talk details on the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, how the upcoming console generation fares with consoles past, new features, old gimmicks, and more.

Video games are evolving. Some daring IPs are venturing out of our living rooms onto the Big Screen! We talk through the roller coaster ride of successes and failures found in streaming shows like The Witcher (2019), mostly extinct VHS movies like Super Mario Bros. (1993), and DVD classics like Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World (2010).

Sometimes successful movies and TV shows inspire their own companion video game. Sometimes that is a huge mistake. We talk The Emperor's New Groove, The Spongebob Squarepants Movie, Toy Story, Lego (everything), Antz, and more.

Being hunkered down is an opportunity to deep dive into our favorite games: DOOM Eternal, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Pokemon Sword, and Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire.

We take a close look at the Wolfenstein, DOOM, and Call of Duty franchises for answers to moral questions. We found some truth in Subnautica, Splatoon, and an old Xbox commercial.

This week, we’re joined by our friend and fellow nerd, Marc! For the time has come, to determine once and for all, whether the technical aspects of gaming are headed in the right direction.
