Podcasts about Backlog

We are joined this month by Tommy from Distant Echoes: A Star Wars Podcast and Lee Carvallo's Podding Challenge: A Simpsons Gaming Podcast to kickoff the return of the Backlog Challenge! But before we dig through our respective bins of games purchased but not played, let's check in on some of the things we've been reading, watching, and thinking about lately.ReadingMr. Burns, A Post-Electric Play by Anne WashburnReaper Man by Terry PratchettBrigands and Breadknives by Travis BaldreeOzma of Oz by L.

Start The Year With a Clean Backlog - Mike CohnThink outside the box.Do you hate that phrase as much as I do?It's become another overused business cliché, and it bothers me for another reason: Creativity often comes from thinking inside the box.This is especially true in agile story-writing workshops. The difference between a successful story-writing workshop and one that fails to deliver often comes down to a single factor:Whether or not the product owner defines a clear, significant objective: a “box” within which the team can think.Workshops without boundaries often roam across the entire product. Teams may generate a long list of user stories but those stories lack cohesion or purpose. They're hard to prioritize, and even harder to act on. The most productive workshops start with a simple framing statement from the product owner, like: “We're here to think about this specific subset of the product.”That's it. One well-chosen boundary and suddenly the team is aligned, focused, and generating better, more valuable ideas.Early in the product's life, that boundary might be about identifying what's needed to deliver an MVP.Later on, it might center around a Minimum Marketable Feature (MMF), something small enough to ship but valuable enough to matter. When workshops are focused around a meaningful objective, you don't need to hold them every sprint. I typically run them about once a quarter because one well-run session generates a steady flow of high-value stories.As this year closes and a new one begins, it's a great time to schedule a story-writing session. You might even want to bring our trainers in for a Story-Writing Workshop, where we'll work with you to: Set powerful, objective-based boundariesWrite stories that are right-sized and ready to buildBuild a focused backlog that everyone can align around Discover how to kick off the new year with a backlog that's ready to go.Whether you hold your own story-writing workshop or bring us in to help, remember that thinking inside the box is a powerful way to take teams from good to great,How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] ⁠https://www.agiledad.com/⁠- [instagram] ⁠https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/⁠- [facebook] ⁠https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/⁠- [Linkedin] ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

A New Year means new resolutions and for many of us that includes making a pledge to chip away at the ever-growing backlog. Are you going to tackle a new series? Revisit an old classic? Are some of last year's hits on sale for the right price? Or do you need something effervescent to pair with a white meat? Eric, Victor, and special guest John Carson discuss what drives them to check games of the list, and whether that's even something we should be beating ourselves up over.

Welcome to Episode 152 of Nintendo Therapy, a show about the latest Nintendo news, rumors, and a celebration of all things Nintendo.This week, we kick off Year of the Backlog with Kevin finally completing Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater from the Metal Gear Solid Collection Vol. 1. Rather than immediately moving on, the conversation turns into a deep appreciation of why Snake Eater still stands as one of the greatest games ever made. We talk about its tight but content-rich design, incredible immersion, unforgettable boss fights, and the emotional weight of Snake and The Boss. It's a masterclass in prequel storytelling, showing how Big Boss's transformation feels earned in a way few franchises ever pull off.On the Nintendo front, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance joins the GameCube Classics lineup, giving fans another reason to revisit (or finally experience) one of the most beloved entries in the series. We also run through the biggest January 2026 Switch and Switch 2 releases, including major updates, new editions, and long-awaited ports.Harrison leads a discussion on the recent spike in Nintendo 3DS prices, exploring why interest in the system is rising again and how renewed demand for dual-screen experiences could influence Nintendo's future hardware decisions. That leads into a fascinating conversation about voice recognition on Switch 2, sparked by new software from Hitachi. We imagine how voice mechanics could be used in classic Nintendo games and remakes, from Hey You, Pikachu and Nintendogs to Animal Crossing, Brain Age, Luigi's Mansion, and more.The episode's Spotlight focuses on Streets of Rage (#50) and Streets of Rage 2 (#49). We break down why Sega's gritty beat 'em up series still holds up decades later, how it stacks up against Final Fight, and why Streets of Rage 2 is often considered the high point of the genre. From iconic characters and co-op chaos to Yuzo Koshiro's legendary soundtracks, this spotlight is a full-on love letter to one of the most influential brawler series of the '90s.All that and more in Episode 152 of Nintendo Therapy.

The Yotei Three are here to give you a full deep dive review of the latest Sucker Punch title: Ghost of Yotei.

I liked a lot about Cyberpunk 2077--from the side missions to the combat to the visuals and plenty more-- but the character of Johnny Silverhand and the performance of Keanu Reeves was not one of them. This wouldn't have been a big problem if he wasn't such a crucial part of the main story, but he is and can't help but show up all of the time, so I couldn't help but only like Cyberpunk 2077 when I thought I was going to love it. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day. (And if you haven't already, or are a listener and not a watcher, please like, subscribe, hit the bell, and all that jazz; it may not seem like much, but it goes a long way in helping support the show and site in general.

One of the game's main themes — that of a Will to live, a meaning to life to stave off what has been variously called "The Absurd," "Nihilism," and more — is on full display as we see more characters than not grapple with it. Between what the game presents and the supplemental lore canon, there's loads to talk about. Hope you love the show today.

But I did like it. A lot. (Please don't hurt me Undertale fans.) This episode is, surprise surprise, all about Undertale, an RPG where you can complete the entire adventure without killing a single soul...or you can kill everyone if that's your fancy. It's up to you (or me in this case) to decide what kind of tale you want to tell. Spoilers: I went the pacifist way.

Deze talkshow wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door NVIDIA, Philips Hue & MSI. Alle meningen in deze video zijn onze eigen. De drie partijen hebben inhoudelijk geen inspraak op de content en zien de video net als jullie hier voor het eerst op de site.Welkom bij een monumentaal moment in 2025: de laatste aflevering van Brievenmaandag in 2025. Veel kijkers zijn al begonnen aan de kerstvakantie. En gelijk hebben ze. Bij ons op de redactie is dat ook zo. Een klein deel werkt door om alle Eindejaarsinterviews op tijd en op de juiste dag online te krijgen. Maar een aantal van de hosts geniet van een paar lekkere vrije dagen. JJ en Skate stellen dat plezier nog even uit. Zij zitten met z'n tweeën klaar om het jaar 2025 qua vragen vanuit de community uit te luiden en jullie alvast voor te bereiden of een jaar vol festiviteiten, als Gamekings in 2026 25 jaar bestaat. Nu eerst dus brieven beantwoorden. Bijvoorbeeld welke handheld iemand moet gaan halen, waarom UFC-games na deel 2 zo kut zijn geworden en of de nieuwe DLC van Diablo 4 er nog toe doet. Dit alles kun je zien en horen in de Brievenmaandag van 21 december 2025.‘Moet ik wel of niet de nieuwe DLC van Diablo 4 gaan halen?'Een vraag die de laatste maanden bij Brievenmaandag vaak binnenkwam via de mail of Discord was hoe je het probleem van een steeds maar uitdijende backlog moet tackelen. Ook deze week was er mail over in de bus. Dit keer over hoe we de backlog bijhouden en of we er ook een waardering bij zetten.Pak honderden euro's op desktops en laptops met een NVIDIA RTX 50-series GPUOp zoek naar een NVIDIA videokaart, een nieuwe PC of een laptop met een NVIDIA GPU?

As Lord Cognito long predicted, the AI conversation reached a breaking point online when people saw one of the industry's golden children announced that they'll be using generative AI for their game's development. That team is Larian Studios who is responsible for the Divinity franchise alongside the incredible Baldur's Gate 3. The CEO of Larian, Swen Vincke, said that it will be used for mostly pre-production stuff along the lines of whiteboxing or even company e-mails. However, he also let it slip that concept art ideation will be part of that process as an optional tool. Well, social media did not like this at all. It has turned into one of the most split topics to round out 2025. So, where do the Dukes stand? Matty, a longtime critic of AI's usage in development beyond a tool, happens to be a massive Larian fan. Does he bend the knee? What of Lord Cognito who always expected this? Does he blink at such a revelation? Perhaps, it's all overblown. There is a reality where we're years down the line and Larian is on a long list of developers who are all doing the same thing. Time shall tell, but let's chat about what we know for now.

Ron Westfall points to Oracle's (ORCL) more than $500 billion RPO and massive multicloud revenue growth as signs the company will keep pace in the A.I. trade.

Rick is joined by Dave (Tales from the Backlog) to take an in-depth look at this marriage of Platinum Games's circumfluent battle style and Yoko Taro's philosophically-tinged narratives. NieR Automata is a game with two ideas at its core: existentialism (existence precedes essence); and the all-too-human penchant for "othering" those who are not in our in-group, often due to unwillingness to shift perspective. This episode covers up to learning the fate of the makers of the machines. Hope you love the show today.

With long queues, inconsistent timelines, and a system designed for a different era, developers are struggling to connect the very projects needed to decarbonise the grid. As demand for renewables, storage, and electrification accelerates, the question is no longer whether the system needs reform, but how quickly it can be delivered.In this episode of Transmission, Charles Deacon, Managing Director at Eclipse Power Solutions, joins Ed to break down the root causes of the UK's connection backlog and what needs to change to fix it. Over the conversation, Charles explores how developers are navigating today's connection challenges, what the recent reforms really mean in practice, and how networks, policymakers, and industry can work together to speed up delivery. He also shares lessons from real projects: what works, what doesn't, and the operational realities behind getting assets connected in a congested system.Key points covered:• Why grid connection delays have become a major blocker for renewables and storage projects.• How developers are adapting to uncertainty, shifting requirements, and long lead times.• What the latest connection queue reforms mean for projects in practice.• How networks, regulators, and industry can collaborate to accelerate connections.• What a future, streamlined connection process should look like for a net-zero power system.About our guest:Charles Deacon is Managing Director at Eclipse Power Solutions.

The permitting process for carbon-capture projects is, in some ways, like navigating Houston's notorious rush-hour traffic — if everyone tries to move at once, gridlock can quickly ensue. That's true at both the federal level, where the EPA has more sequestration wells under review than ever before, and at the state level, where Louisiana just hit the pause button on its reviews. In today's RBN blog, we look at how increased interest in carbon capture has exacerbated the permitting backlog.

Dozens of immigration judges have been fired by the Trump administration with no explanation. From coast to coast, nearly four dozen judges have lost their positions as the courts face a record backlog. Many had worked in immigrant defense, prompting questions about whether the firings are part of the administration’s hardline approach. Geoff Bennett discussed more with former judge Emmett Soper.

Journalist Jesse Bogan of the Marshall Project reports on the case of Megan Jolly, a 52-year-old woman who has been jailed at the St. Charles County Justice Center for nearly two years. Jolly is among more than 500 Missouri defendants deemed mentally incompetent to stand trial and are waiting for a state-mandated treatment to restore competency. The backlog has surged since 2013, leaving many in limbo. Bogan discusses why the Missouri Department of Mental Health is “continually at absolute bed capacity for competency restoration”. He also gives further details on Jolly and other defendants awaiting psychiatric treatment.
