Canadian Take On The Videogame Scene, As Told By A Group Of Guys Who Grew Up In The 80's
Dan is joined by Richard, Nick and Santino as they discuss the best game released in 2024. You might be surprised by the results (or not at all... who knows). 2025 is looking like a banger year, but 2024 has only JUST concluded, so we can't forget the best games that came and went. We plan on doing a monthly episode in 2025, so look forward to that!
We're back (and apparently missed Episode 51 but whatever, it's 52 now!) and with a full cast of characters. Prepare to have the cockles of your heart warmed as we take you through what we've been playing, then play a (bad) game of 20 questions.
The boys chat about 2023 overall, including the biggest surprises, biggest disappointments, and top 3 games overall! The results might surprise you. Or not :-D Also, the return of 20 Questions.
Dan, Richard & Alex chat about what they've been playing, and yap about a bunch of other video game related stuff. Super fun!

The guys chat about a LOT this month! Dan gushes about Tinykin Jon goes on and on about Street Fighter Richard quits a game he's been addicted to for 10 years Alex plays a NEW GAME! (Just kidding, he's still only playing Apex Legends & FIFA) Logitech G Cloud, what is it and why is it so expensive? New Nvidia cards are HOW MUCH? AND MUCH MORE!
The gang chats about the sweet, purring bliss that is Stray. Also, what's the deal with all of these delays? (Dan doesn't mind at ALL). Also, wait... Netflix has mobile games? And some are actually good? Come have a listen!
The guys chat about the upcoming shows... (is this the new E3?), and what they expect to see. What's everyone been playing lately? Also, Alex goes into WAY too much detail about FIFA.
Zelda, Zelda, ZELDA! Let's chat everything Zelda. TV shows, games, spin-offs, you name it.
The gang discusses Elden Ring (at LENGTH) and then dives deep into the top 10 video game movies of all time (at least until now!). The results might surprise you!
So yeah... we've been gone for a while. We know that. But the important thing is, we're back. Even MORE important than that, is that we're back every MONTH! That's right, we'll be recording an episode once a month to chat about everything video game related (or, if Nick has his way, Gunpla). Anyways, we're chatting videogames, what gets our motors running, and what we're looking forward to. Also, the best part of the show... the blatantly stolen 'Video Game 20 Questions' segment. Have a listen and let us know what you think. What should we change, do you hate anyone's voice? Does Dan need to yell at his kids more often? We NEED to know.
It's that time of year! The Joystix team chats about their 3 top games of 2021, the top games they missed or didn't have time to play... and what they're looking forward to in 2022. Check us out on Twitter @JoystixCanada

The boys chat about the latest attempt at a Mortal Kombat movie reboot. 2021's aptly named 'Mortal Kombat', directed by Simon McQuoid, who has brought us.. well.. nothing else. This is his directorial debut! Starring a relatively unknown group of actors, with the lone exception being the amazing pharmacist from the television show Superstore 'Josh Lawson'. How good is it? Is it nice and bloody? Does it do justice to the games? Will NON-fans enjoy it? Listen to find out!
The boys chat about 2020's Monster Hunter, directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, who has brought us some... err... winners, such as a BUNCH of the Resident Evil movies, Mortal Kombat (from the 90's) and Event Horizon (which is arguably awesome actually).
