We are back and had a plan on what to talk about this time. Jonny realizes that Ben is only going to play Destiny forever. We talk about what we are playing, what’s coming out, was seasonal gaming a thing in the past, and Ice Climbers.Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com@gengamepodcast@jonny_casino@deadlock_2121

We decide to talk about more than gaming this week. We get into a discussion on the new iPhones. We do talk about games we’ve played and demoed. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

We went to PAX West and played a lot of games. Some of these you will have heard of, but now you get our take on them.  Other games will be ones you've never heard of.  I hope you enjoy this and we help you make future game buying decisions. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Jonny has played so many games the Generational Gamers must discuss this.  Some of the conversation leads to talk about whether or not sports games have gotten too complicated.  Also, they talk Fortnite. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

We are now trying to go weekly, and we will see how well that works.  Today, we talk about Final Fantasy 15, Kingdom Hearts, Horizon, a game that Ben keeps secret, and, of course, Fortnite. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

We are back again and we start off with Jonny's problem with his drone.  We also get into limited time events and having too many games to play. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

We get back to some old topics.  Fortnite Season 5 came out, but Ben doesn't think it's legit on Switch.  Ben also finally gives us an update on WoW.  He also drops a few F-bombs. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

It's episode 50, but lets be honest, no one cares.  What you might care about is special editions.  We talk about consoles and games.  Jonny gets real excited. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

E3 just happened and Ben has some opinions.  Also, both are considering making a console purchase and Ben's is unexpected Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Jonny and Ben talk about what they've been playing, and what they want to play.  Jonny enjoys a Twitch Streamer names wearytwo.  Been is enjoying Farcry 5 more.  Both played the Sea Of Thieves quest.  The main thing for today is that Ben needs to convince Jonny to give Fallout another try. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

This week, we try to talk about online services.  Turns out, we don't know as much as we thought about it.  This conversation comes out of the announcement of Nintendo's Online Service announcement.  Ben is not a big Nintendo guy, so Jonny needed to know his take on what they announced.  Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

This week, we try to step up our game.  We have a little more of a format, and Ben has  new mic.  We discuss CoD not having a campaign, Paladins, Wolfenstien and Doom, and how game difficulties progress. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

I know, I know.  We talk about Fortnite again.  We also get into some food talk.  The big discussion is Superhot. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Of course we talk Fortnite.  Jonny also pushed Ben to give opinions on Sea Of Thieves and Farcry 5.  Here is the kicker: Ben had to turn a game down to normal. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Ben hates Diddy Kong, but loves Smash Bros.  We are drinking, or have already been, so expect nothing.  We try not to talk about Fortnite too much, but we can't not talk about it.   Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Ben finds out how amazing Biker Mice From Mars is, including the cartoon from the 90's.  Jonny is learning more about the FARCRY series.  On top of all that, they love FORTNITE so much they can't stop talking about it. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

The Generational Gamers have some catching up to do because they haven't been able to hang out in a while.  They spend a lot of time talking about Sea of Thieves again, but its going to be important to them hanging out.  Ben has a number of things he's excited to play coming up, but Jonny can't really think of any. Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Ben has left town and we are not sure how well Jon is taking it.  They can't siot and play games together, so the guys loo into how and what to play online.  Also, Ben played a surprise game! Generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Happy New Year.  I promise that we are not drunk, but Jonny might be too tired to speak properly.  Today, the guys attempt to talk about reproducing game media, but they can't stay on that for long. generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Jonny exposed Ben to a couple Famicom exclusives.  The fact that they are Konami games that parody other Konami games.  Then we touch on Christmas stuff. generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Ben got quite a surprise with how good a couple of NES games are that Jonny made him play.  Couch competitive has changed a lot, so why not discus this? generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

We start talking about retro game collecting, and. somehow, that takes us way down a path of insanity.  Once we pull it together, we talk about playing Contra and COD WWII generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Jonny was able to sit down with Mega Buck, the owner of Retro Game Treasures. We spent some time talking about the service, how it works, and how to get the most out of it. Then we get into the fun stuff about our own collecting, what we play, and gaming with our kids.Visit our sponsor and use the code: FORGETBEINGCOOLRetro Game Treasure  generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com@gengamepodcast@jonny_casino@deadlock_2121

Sometimes you just don't want to play your games.  Figuring out what to do when you want to game but can't decide what to play.  Do you have a game pallet cleanser?  These are the things we discus, and then we end up off the rails. generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

onny has Ben play some old baseball games: Ken Griffey Jr. MLB and Base Wars.  They talk about those games and Fortnite Battle Royal.  Ben gets his time to rant and let listeners know about the games he plays. generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Today we get far from Ben's normal gaming and talk walking sim games.  We also start our play through of the SNES Classic with Street Fighter II Turbo.  We end it with Ben's rant on XBOX and Destiny 2. generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Do you enjoy stealth games or prefer to blow them all to Hell?  Where did the stealth genre begin?  Don't worry, we didn't know either.   generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Ben and Jonny played Mario vs Rabbids Kingdom Battle co-op and Beach Buggy Racing.  That talk is good, but then Ben speaks about Destiny 2.  That's when it gets real! generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

So, Jonny finally plays WoW.  Want to know what he thinks?  Want to hear Ben's final Destiny 2 thoughts before the game comes out?  Give this a listen. Contact us: generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

In today's episode we lat Ben rage.  We both kinda vent some but this is mostly for Ben to get stuff off his chest Contact us: generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

Keeping with the new format we have established, Jon has Ben play Mario Strikers Charged.  The conversation doesn't stay on topic long but we have a great time. Contact us: generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121

We are drinking beer again but we are changing other things up.  We have moved to a new format of playing a game that one of us normally would not be into.  This week, it's Destiny 2.  Hear Ben speak very intelligently about it and find out if Jonny changes his mind.

Sometimes you just want more. That's why we got together and talked about DLC. Is it good? Is it bad? Should we have to pay for it? Who knows? Definitely not us! Contact us: generationalgamerspodcast@gmail.com @gengamepodcast @jonny_casino @deadlock_2121
