In 1982, David Crane pushed the Atari 2600 to its limits with only four kilobytes of memory, creating Pitfall!, a jungle adventure that became one of the system's best-sellers. Our conversation traces Crane's journey from Atari to co-founding Activision, his experiments that led to the iconic “running man” sprite, and the algorithm that generated 255 screens on the fly. We highlight how Raiders of the Lost Ark, Saturday cartoons, and clever coding shaped Pitfall Harry's swings on vines, leaps across crocodiles, and treasure hunts. We also revisit its commercial success, Jack Black's cameo in a TV ad, and the technical marvel of Pitfall II: Lost Caverns. Though later revivals varied, the original proved consoles could deliver real adventures. Join us as we revisit the leap that defined platforming on today's trip down Memory Card Lane.Read transcript

On this week's episode, Sonny, Alyssa, and Peter asked why Activision would turn down a chance to have Steven Spielberg direct a Call of Duty movie. Then they reviewed Highest 2 Lowest, the latest collaboration between Spike Lee and Denzel Washington. Spoiler: We all loved the score, which is apparently a controversial opinion in some quarters! (Also the rest of the movie is pretty good too.) Make sure to swing by Thursday for a bonus Spike Lee draft. And if you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend!

Join hosts Ernesto Santos and Matt Diaz as we discuss the latest entertainment news including Paramount making big moves by signing The Duffer Bros. to a four-year exclusive deal and by working with Activision to develop a Call of Duty film. We'll then chit-chat about our recently watched movies and tv shows in a fun segment we like to call “Whatcha Watchin'” including our thoughts on the Emmy nominated series The Bear S4 and Dying for Sex.

Esto es GamersRD Podcast, nuestro programa semanal donde comentamos y damos opiniones sobre los más recientes acontecimientos del mundo del entretenimiento digital. En este episodio hablamos sobre la decadencia en los juegos shooter. En los últimos años no hemos tenido un lanzamiento decente; las desarrolladoras se han enfocado más en hacer dinero que en brindar calidad de juego, junto con las faltas de ideas para hacer algo innovador. Dale PLAY!

Deze talkshow wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door LG UltraGear. Alle meningen in deze video zijn onze eigen. LG UltraGear heeft inhoudelijk geen inspraak op de content en zien de video net als jullie hier voor het eerst op de site.Ook in deze week hebben we weer nieuwe afleveringen van Gamekings Daily voor je op de planning. Onze dagelijkse podcast waarbij we de laatste game nieuwtjes doornemen. Zo zijn er nieuwe ontwikkelingen rond de mogelijke Call of Duty film, met een vrij gedurfde houding vanuit Activision. Ook zijn er andere nieuwtjes over games zoals een nieuwe Wolfenstein game, en een lofzang voor Sword of the Sea. Tot slot bespreken Huey en JJ het nieuws dat sommige spelers Resident Evil Requiem te eng vinden in first person. Hoe denken zij daarover?Als je Steven Spielberg zelfs niet aan Call of Duty mag werken, wie dan wel?Gamekings Daily is er doordeweeks bijna elke dag, tenzij er een of meerdere mooie reviews voor je klaarstaan. In een van de vorige afleveringen van Gamekings Daily waren de eerste geruchten over een mogelijke Call of Duty film besproken. Het was toen vooral de insteek dat Phil Spencer de IP niet graag zou weggeven. Eén van de laatsten die zich heeft geopperd om deze te regisseren is niemand minder dan Steven Spielberg. En dan heb je goud in handen zou je denken. Behalve als je Activision heet.Pak 600 korting op de 32-inch GS95UV-B monitor van LG UltraGearDe LG UltraGear OLED 32GS95UV-B monitor is de monitor waar Koos thuis zijn games op speelt.

Welkom bij Nerd Culture #224, de Gamekings podcast waarin we weer diep in de wereld van films, series en alles geeky duiken. Deze week staan horror, nostalgie én gaming centraal. Jelle bespreekt de langverwachte 28 Years Later, Koos ging terug naar de cultklassieker Highlander en we checken het bizarre verhaal over hoe Steven Spielberg ooit een Call of Duty-film wilde regisseren maar werd afgewezen door Activision. Daarnaast behandelen we nieuws over Marvel Zombies, TRON: Ares, Nicolas Cage als John Madden en de eerste beelden van The Mandalorian & Grogu.Highlander ReviewKoos heeft zich deze week gestort op de cultklassieker Highlander en bespreekt in de podcast of de film de tand des tijds nog weet te doorstaan. De film uit 1986, met Christopher Lambert als de onsterfelijke Connor MacLeod en Sean Connery als zijn mentor, combineert fantasy, zwaardgevechten en de legendarische soundtrack van Queen. Maar hoe kijkt een moderne kijker naar deze mix van campy jaren '80-stijl en epische thema's over onsterfelijkheid? Eén ding is duidelijk: There can be only one!28 Years Later ReviewJelle heeft deze week 28 Years Later gecheckt, de langverwachte opvolger van Danny Boyle's baanbrekende 28 Days Later en 28 Weeks Later. De film pakt de draad decennia na de eerste uitbraak van het Rage-virus weer op en onderzoekt hoe de wereld er inmiddels aan toe is. Zijn de overlevenden erin geslaagd om een samenleving op te bouwen, of ligt er opnieuw totale chaos op de loer?In de podcast deelt Jelle zijn indrukken van de toon, de stijl en natuurlijk de spanning die de franchise altijd kenmerkte. Hoe verhoudt de film zich tot de intense, rauwe sfeer van het origineel? En voelt dit derde deel als een natuurlijke afsluiter van de trilogie of juist als een herhaling van zetten? Verwacht een eerlijke bespreking vol liefde voor het horrorgenre, maar ook kritische noten over waar de film de plank misschien misslaat.Activision wees Steven Spielberg af voor Call of Duty Stel je voor: een Call of Duty-film geregisseerd door niemand minder dan Steven Spielberg. Volgens Puck News gebeurde dat bijna, want Spielberg pitchte zijn eigen visie bij Activision. Met zijn Amblin-team en dealmaker Jimmy Horowitz had hij een voorstel klaar dat garant stond voor grootsheid, compleet met de beruchte “Spielberg Deal” — volledige creatieve controle, finale cut en zeggenschap over marketing. Maar juist dat was voor Activision een brug te ver. Het resultaat? Het plan ging de prullenbak in en Paramount kreeg de rechten.Dat maakt de vraag interessant: wat voor film hadden we gekregen als de regisseur van Saving Private Ryan zich over een van de grootste gamefranchises ooit had gebogen? Call of Duty is met meer dan 500 miljoen verkochte exemplaren en $30 miljard omzet een van de meest lucratieve entertainmentmerken aller tijden. Zonder Spielberg blijft het afwachten of de film dezelfde prestige kan neerzetten of slechts mikt op popcorn-spektakel.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #22400:00:18 Wat hebben we gekeken/gelezen/geluisterd?00:00:30 28 Years Later00:06:00 28 Years Later The Bone Temple (spoiler alert00:09:50 The Terminal List Dark Wolf00:12:29 Highlander00:27:00 Marvel Zombies Trailer00:29:30 Eyes of Wakanda gekeken00:30:25 Paramount koopt de rechten voor de Call of Duty film00:34:25 Steven Spielberg wilde dolgraag een Call of Duty film maken00:39:30 Nicolas Cage onherkenbaar als John Madden in biopic00:44:10 The Rock wil zich losbreken van typecasting00:54:28 Waarom het 15 jaar duurde voor een TRON sequel01:00:04 TRON: Ares Trailer01:02:45 Sony CEO geeft toe: “Je komt niet meer weg met slechte superhero films”01:11:00 Channing Tatum zal z'n performance als Gambit flink terugschroeven01:14:15 James Gunn onthult Man of Tomorrow01:18:00 Back to the Future re-release op 13 november in de bioscoop01:21:20 Ga stijlvol de feestdagen in01:23:54 Eerste beelden van The Mandalorian & Grogu01:26:06 Black Phone 2 Trailer

Show Notes On this week's podcast, Dan and Kris board the SAG Cartoon Express for another “classic” episode of ThePower Team. This time, it's an episode called Train Game, where there's a train full of kids under threat of explosion from Mr. Big from NARC, and the only hope of saving the day lies in the hands of Acclaim NES game D-listers. Fun! In Week Old News, the new Mortal Kombat movie gets a hefty delay, the EverCade lineup gets some Activision goodness, and ninjas are EVERYWHERE! How desperate. Finally, in The Checkpoint, Kris beat Bananza, but Dan didn't so he can't talk about why the final act cements it as one of Nintendo's all-time greats. Dan got his hands on Metal Gear Solid Delta and has been annoying everyone he know switch his Solid Snake impressions, and Kris got to spend a little time with the beautiful Kirby and the Forgotten Land Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star crossed Worlds.

Paul Thurrott is in Berlin this week for IFA 2025! With AI models multiplying across devices and Microsoft plotting a post-OpenAI future, Paul and Richard debate whether Copilot and local AI finally hint at what's next for your PC.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesWhile speaking with Variety for a cover story, Gambit actor Channing Tatum revealed that he will be toning down the intentionally unintelligible Cajun accent he used in Deadpool & Wolverine for Avengers: Doomsday, as the Russo Brothers want to "keep the drama" and avoid going "full Deadpool" with the character. The actor also confirmed he suffered an on-set injury that required pain medication and will need six months of physical therapy as production on the film continues.Star Wars: Starfighter has officially locked in its ensemble cast, with Amy Adams, Aaron Pierre, Matt Smith, who will play a villain according to sources at Deadline, Mia Goth and newcomer Flynn Gray among the latest to board the space opera alongside Ryan Gosling in the lead.

It's been a bit of a rough go for Obsidian as of late. Compared to their usual RPG triumphs, Avowed felt quite a bit less than that. However, not all of it was entirely their fault. At one point, Xbox chose to make this the $80 game that would lead the charge in a new era of high prices. After considerable pushback, they chose to drop the price to $70. While a welcome sight, some have debated if even that is a fair price point for what appears to be a AA RPG. Now, marketing has kicked the hornet's nest with the latest companion trailer. So, here we are. Cog and Matty played the prologue section of the game and our thoughts are mixed. There certainly wasn't a "sound the alarm" moment, but it read to the Dukes like a less confident showing. Much of what makes an Obsidian RPG great is here. However, after the preview failed to show how that would be executed, both Dukes were left feeling like there is more that could've been done. Now, the tough decision falls to Xbox. Do you risk another preview and overexpose the game to try and correct things? Do you ride into launch and hope for the best? Time will tell, but we only have to wait until October to learn just how worth it Outer Worlds 2 will be.

Merger litigation is fast, high-stakes, and often unpredictable. So what does it take to win—or avoid losing—when the government challenges a deal? In this episode, Puja Patel and James Hunsberger are joined by Kieran Gostin, a partner at Wilkinson Stekloff and a seasoned merger trial lawyer who helped Microsoft defeat the FTC in its challenge to the Activision acquisition. From trial preparation strategy to expert witness credibility, internal documents versus economic modeling, and real-world lessons from Microsoft/Activision, the conversation covers both foundational insights and tactical advice. Listen in to learn what parties, practitioners, and economists need to consider long before a complaint is ever filed—and what really moves the needle in court. With special guest: Kieran Gostin, Partner, Wilkinson Stekloff Hosted by: Puja Patel, Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP and James Hunsberger, Axinn, Veltrop & Harkrider LLP

Zwar bestellen wir Battlefield 6 besser noch nicht vor, aber Spaß gemacht hat uns die Beta-Phase dennoch. In Folge 181 des PC Games Podcast plaudern wir über die grandiose Rückkehr des Shooters. Nach dem stark kritisierten Battlefield 2042 warten Fans der Reihe sehnsüchtig auf den Release des neuen Titels am 10. Oktober. Das kurze Anschnuppern in der offenen Beta verspricht tatsächlich einiges.Aus diesem Grund hat Podcast-Host Michi Grünwald seine Redaktions-Kollegen Carlo Siebenhüner und Yannik Cunha eingeladen und das Trio spricht ausführlich über die bisherigen Stärken und Schwächen. Schon einmal vorab: Die brachiale Action im Multiplayer gefällt allen, obwohl sie mit dem Franchise bislang komplett unterschiedliche Erfahrungen gesammelt haben.Auch Vergleiche zu Call of Duty müssen gezogen werden, schließlich belebt Konkurrenz das Geschäft. Ein starkes Battlefield setzt Activision und deren CoD-Entwicklerteams unter Druck. Die derzeitige Phase ist spannend und genau auf diese Tatsache zielt unser Podcast-Trio unter anderem ab. Vielleicht schaffen EA und die Entwickler wirklich das beinahe Unmögliche und brechen in die Phalanx von Call of Duty ein. Die Zeichen dafür stehen nicht allzu schlecht.Lasst uns in den Kommentaren wissen, wie viel Spaß ihr bis jetzt mit der Beta zu Battlefield 6 hattet, oder holt euch der Shooter gar nicht ab? Erzählt uns auch gerne, was ihr noch vermisst und wo ihr Verbesserungspotenzial seht. Jetzt bleibt uns nur noch übrig, euch viel Spaß beim Anhören der aktuellen Folge zu wünschen!Der PC Games Podcast - der offizielle Videospielpodcast der PC Games - erscheint seit über einem Jahrzehnt regelmäßig und liefert dabei wöchentlich gleich mehrere Talks zum riesigen Thema Videospiele.Unser Moderationsteam, Michi Grünwald und Vivi Ziermann, deckt dabei etliche Bereiche ab: Review-Gespräche und Previews zu brandaktuellen Games, nostalgische Rückblicke, Reports, Interviews und vieles mehr.

Gaming hosts Josh, Ryan and John are back with a jam-packed episode covering the biggest news in video games this week! First up, we're talking about Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 remake—could this be the comeback fans have been waiting for, or is Activision grinding the nostalgia rail a little too hard? Then we dive into Nintendo's Donkey Kong Bananza. Is this new adventure a banana-blasting success or just another swing and a miss? Plus, Ubisoft has officially responded to the rocky reception of Star Wars Outlaws, who's to blame?
