Podcast appearances and mentions of anthony agnello

Long-time friend of the show Anthony Agnello returns to talk about Gamescom's opening night presentation, how Geoff Keighley's format is wearing thin, and the difficulty for smaller devs to get attention in a world where the biggest publishers suck up all of the oxygen.

Watch the cast grow in real time as we're joined on the fly first by Anthony Agnello and then Daan Koopman (aka Nintendaan). First up for discussion: Sony leaving E3 and the gradual decline in E3's importance among trade shows. Second: on the heels of several big game delays, what do delays even mean for games? And of COURSE we make time for dumb Nintendo speculation.

SDGC is joined by Anthony Agnello to talk about what we've been playing, recent releases, and silly geese. Plus: news on The Last Of Us 2, and... uh... Amiibo buttplugs for some reason.

John, Finn, Derek, and guest Anthony Agnello dive into one of the strangest and most freeform games in the Final Fantasy series: Final Fantasy V. Gilgamesh is the best Final Fantasy character and that isn't up for discussion (the editor responsible for this line has been sacked).

On Episode 116 of SDGC, our buddy Anthony Agnello joins us to talk about things we love in games we don't like, and things we don't like in games we love! Plus, John sings a little Puddle of Mudd! --

Kat and Nadia are joined by RPG enthusiast Anthony Agnello to recap Thursday's Nintendo Direct, including the news that South Park is coming to the Switch, and Dark Souls is getting an Amiibo (at last!). Then the trio talk about what makes Xenoblade Chronicles 2's great (with some spoilers), and why Radiant Historia is an RPG you should play on the 3DS. 

Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan are in the news in the United States for holding rallies and murdering a counter-protester in Charlottesville, Virginia. This grim reality weighed on our minds when we went to record the GamesBeat Decides podcast this week, so we decided to talk about the history and the future of how games depict white supremacy. This week, VentureBeat social editor Anthony Agnello and VentureBeat managing editor Jason Wilson join host Jeffrey Grubb on the GamesBeat Decides podcast to talk about the Nazi-killing escapism of Wolfenstein and Bionic Commando. The group also touch on fighting against World War II-era Germans in online games like World of Warships as well as the depiction of the KKK in Mafia III. That leads into whether we should have high hopes that Ubisoft will confidently tackle the racial implications of American white supremacy with the cult in its upcoming Far Cry 5 shooter. On top of the discussion of fascists, this week's show features the news as well as some of the biggest games released so far this August. Games we talk about: - PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - Agents of Mayhem - Sonic Mania - Strikers 1945 - Gravity Rush 2 - Citadel: Forged with Fire - Hearthstone: Knights of the Frozen Throne - Neverwinter https://youtu.be/SGY-BHB25GA --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/gamesbeat-decides/support
