GameHounds

Or, as we like to call it, the Holiday DrunkCast.

We have a show. This is a thing. Holidays suck.

GameHounds 621: NO SHOW

Edie's back in the USA and Nick is... well, he's just Nick. We talk Battlefield 2042's bad Santa, free games, and what at shitty, shhhhiittty company Take Two has proven itself to be.

It's Edie's last show from Iceland, and between the darkness, the cold, and the lack of sleep, she's gone just a tad nuts.

It's Edie's last show from Iceland, and between the darkness, the cold, and the lack of sleep, she's gone just a tad nuts.

It's GameHounds' first international show. Edie is in Iceland, Nick is in California, and Andrew is off. We go over the Activision Shitshow that has (somehow, incredibly so) gotten even shittier, Blizzards' ill-conceived Warlock set, and nominees for the Games Awards.

It seems like this week was all about game releases, and exactly NONE of them went well. Battlefield 2042, Grand Theft Auto Trilogy, and Call of Duty Vanguard all had various degrees of mess. We talk about them.

We're all back together and ready to go!

Back 4 Blood early access goes live, Twitch gets hacked, and Activision's Dumpster fire still burns like a sewage-tainted lava flow.

Oh lord. I mean, we hate Konami as much as anybody, but eFootball is so bad makes even us feel a little sorry for the company.Actually... nahhh! Eff Konami.

Edie is back with 100% more internet, though we have 100% less Andrew. We talk the continuing saga of Activision Blizzard as yet ANOTHER investigation is launched, this time from the feds.

Edie now better understand how, a decade later, Skyrim is still so popular. We have a two-man show this week (and for the next several), so Nick and Edie talk breaking games on console (and why that's good), first-party PS upgrades will now cost you, and other news from around the joint.

Warning: Nick will spoil Twelve Minutes, but for a good reason. And we've got the latest shenanigans with Activision Blizzard (involving paper shredders and name changes), and all the other news and reviews fit to know.

Edie is sick, but that doesn't mean she and the rest of the team won't be talking about news. Activision removes its logo from CoD trailer, Square Enix hasn't paid Overwatch devs, and no... Soulja Boy does NOT own Atari.

The Back 4 Blood beta is now open to all, and Nick chimes in on his opinion. Also more awful developments for Activision Blizzard and other news from around the gaming world.

We have a full house today, and we have our review of the Back 4 Blood beta, the gaming being the spiritual successor of the Left 4 Dead franchise. We also have news updates including what's going on with Activision Blizzard this week (it got even worse).

Full house today, and the Activision Blizzard sex- and racial-harassment revelations keep getting worse. Blizzard employees walk out as Bobby Kotick issues a statement that doesn't go over any better than others. It's all bad, and getting worse. Also, other news, because yah, there's some.

How bad is your company's culture that you get sued by the government? Activision Blizzard can tell ya. And we have other news to cover. Full chairs today. TRIGGER WARNING: This episode mentions and contains descriptions of alleged sexual harassment, sexual assault, and suicide by Activision during the news segment.

Episode 602 This week we have a full house but some terrible news.

It's a two-chair day on this Independence Day holiday. Edie and Nick talk news and reviews. We talk Dan Houser's new gig, the biggest bummer prologue in gaming, and why you shouldn't steal $10 million in XBox gift cards.

Nick and Edie are without an Andrew this week, but there's much to discuss: Crystal Dynamics defies common sense and leaves use IP addresses live on screen for a whole day, what's in the Blue Box, and DND Dark Alliance review (and Edie and Nick will disagree)

We're back with the final rundown of E3 and news about not only a major hack of EA assets (now on sale for $24 million, if you've got some spare change), but also how ludicrously easy it was to do. Two-factor authentication is important.

We've got a roundup of four major E3 showcases — Xbox/Bethesda, Gearbox, Square Enix, and Ubisoft. And not gonna lie, it's been mostly a snoozefest.

Andrew is back and we're in the home stretch for E3 (and other non-E3 related events) and we talk about what we expect to see and what we hope to see. Also, news of Quantic Dreams' wacky studio heads being idiots in court and GoW Ragnarok gets delayed and fans lose their minds.

Puppies are assholes. Cute assholes, but still assholes. Also, we have as much news as you can get a week before E3 (which isn't much). Andrew back next week.

It's been a rough week, and Edie's not feelin' it. But that doesn't mean we won't talk about what went on this week. Tim Cook wraps up testimony in Epic v. Apple.

We're another week without Andrew, and we're lonely. We talk continuing cash grabs from developers, including Ubisoft's free-to-play spree and Bungie's transmog system that is so. much. worse. than. feared!

Just Nick and Edie today, but we're recapping all the HUGE revelations out of the Epic v. Apple v. Epic lawsuit.

We have Nick's ongoing hate of Outriders (though oddly, he's still playing it) as well as details on the calendar of Summer Games Fest and E3.

Okay, so it's literally been more than a decade that we've been naming shows by the date. It's lazy and we know it. From now on, shows will have names. Because nobody remembers a show that titled with a date, but everyone remembers "Estrogen and Alcohol." Also, Nick and Edie this week with Destiny 2's transmog cashgrab, Humble Bundle's slider cashgrab, and other news from around the system.

Full staff here today, with tons of news. Because that's how we do it.

It's Easter and we are COMPLETELY UNPREPARED this week.

A two-chair show today with Nick and Edie as we cover the week's events, like GameStop's board steps down, Bioware's lead designer leaves, and free games afoot.

We catch up with news, including a new post-Stadia studio by Jade Raymond, Activision Blizzard Fires employees during record profits and record executive payouts, and an update on the "EAgate" FIFA Ultimate Team investigation.

We've got lots of news, including scandal at EA over FIFA Ultimate Team cards, the Bethesda/Microsoft deal is done, and other important stuff.

Valve's DOTA2 card game, Artifact, is kaput, The Sinking City is DMCA's by its own developer, Guilty Gear Strive is delayed, and we have a Tiny Tina for the upcoming Borderlands movie.

It's a two-man show (well, one man, one woman) but we have just as much news. Epic fails in the UK, Valve now officially in the Epic v. Apple war, evidence that E3 unsurprisingly cancelled for 2021, and CDPR hack was way more devastating than first thought.

We're back with a full house this week! We've got game reviews and a TON of news, including the CDPR hack, Stadia Woes, and Metallica's "For Whom The Bell Tolls" gets hilariously "belled."

We haven't had new podcasts uploaded last week and we won't have one this week. Edie explains why. Twitch: TheGameHounds. YouTube: GameHounds Vids. Facebook: TheGameHounds

We have two weeks to catch up on, and what a massive two weeks. Microsoft raises prices and immediately regrets it, GameStop broke Wall Street, and so much news we can't even fit it here.

Even as its leadership serves up a mea culpa, there's more revelations about how Cyberpunk 2077 went from hero to zero. And Star Wars is now free from the shackles of EA Games. Nick and Edie talk it out (no Andrew today).

After a crazy week of [insert nutballs event that derailed your work productivity for at least a day], we've got video-game news, including a spate of deaths within the community that's as sad as it is sobering.

It's the first show of the new year, and we're rounding up our best games of the year.

There's more news about the Cyberpunk shitshow (lawsuits, sales figures), a new console that warms your chicken (not a euphamism), and Microsoft puts the kibosh on Gal*Gun.

We are all back and the Cyberpunk 2077 sh**show continues. Investor lawsuits, consumer lawsuits, CDPR tells users to ask Sony for refunds, Sony responds by pulling the game off shelves. It's not all Cyberpunk news, but it's a lot. Also, Valhalla's Yule Festival goes live.

Big week in gaming. Last of Us Part 2 takes home everything but the kitchen sink at the Game Awards, Cyberpunk 2077 releases and... oh my... what a mess. And new offerings coming to Game Pass. We've got it here with Edie and Nick (no Andrew today).

We're back after a week hiatus, but there's so much news to talk about. Bioware execs leave and put DA4 into questionable status, Cyberpunk 2077's massive patches (and we mean MAAAASIVE), bricking of PS5s are happening (and one of us is victim so far), and Canadians are about to get hosed on games, eh?

It's the last show before Black Friday, so we round up sales and deals, where you might still find an Xbox Series X/S or PS5 (if you're lucky), and what games you might think about picking up that showcase your new console.
