Podcasts about BioShock

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we kick off a short series on 2007's Portal. We talk about the year it came out, a bit about Valve and the Orange Box, before talking about the game's development history and then some topics about the game itself. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Up to/through Test 12 (because Tim can't follow directions) Issues covered: 2007 in games, motion-controlled archaeology, the box of goodies that was The Orange Box, Team Fortress 2 and hats, connecting console accounts to Steam, Steam history and digital copies, "introducing Portal," long development time on TF2, character silhouettes, The Most Perfect Video Game, not knowing what you have, a killer first game, deep dives, giving permission to not shoot things, building up knowledge in puzzle games, Match 3 puzzle games, not seeing the game coming, the sequel, gating progress on mechanical knowledge, stepping through understanding portals, "this is impossible," subverting the player, learning without realizing it, increasing complexity, the magical opening portal moment, the infinite regress, whether you'd still take that deal, simple UX methods to help players get over the first-person thinking, embedding information in the world and fiction, narrative design vs writing, the voice of GladOS, where lore works for Brett, expanding the world of Half-Life.  Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: BioShock, Halo 3, Super Mario Galaxy, God of War II, Mass Effect, Metroid Prime III, Tomb Raider: Anniversary, Tomb Raider: Legend, Crystal Dynamics, Wii, Jason Botta, Eidos/Square, CoD4: Modern Warfare, Crysis, Uncharted, Assassin's Creed, The Witcher, Rock Band, Nintendo DS, Phantom Hourglass, Hotel Dusk, Cooking Mama, STALKER (series), Metro (series), Trespasser, Half-Life (series), Mark Laidlaw, Dario Casals, Gabe Newell, The Orange Box, Team Fortress 2, PlayStation, The "Black Box," Quake, Pixar, Steve Meretzky, Norm MacDonald, Skyrim, Claire Danes, Narbacular Drop, My So-Called Life, Baz Luhrmann, Strictly Ballroom, Nuclear Monkey Software, Kim Swift, Jeep Barnett, Tacoma, Little Women, Greta Gerwig, DigiPen Institute of Technology, 343 Industries, Firewatch, Campo Santo, Outer Wilds, The Stanley Parable, The Talos Principle, Antichamber, Gone Home, The Witness, Zelda, MYST, PopCap, Puzzle Quest, Bejewelled, Fez, Homeland, Chet Faliszek, Eric Wolpaw, Old Man Murray, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.  Next time: Finish Portal and Takeaways!

Frank, Squeaks, and Thomas cover a packed week: dream casting for Netflix's BioShock movie, first takes on the Avengers Doomsday reveal out of Shanghai and what it signals for Doctor Doom in the MCU, Star Trek Day highlights and what the 60th anniversary year could look like, quick reactions to the 77th Emmys, why Warner Bros. Discovery is suing Midjourney, and fresh DCU talk after new Superman images and a 2027 date. We close with recommendations and a fast tour around the Geek Freaks Network. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Welcome, mid-week vibes, and today's lineup 01:14 Question of the Week: BioShock movie casting picks for Andrew Ryan, Atlas, Jack, and Little Sisters 07:02 Con updates: CrackerCon appearances, SDC Town Hall, LA Comic Con plans 08:22 Avengers Doomsday first look: Doom's armor, magic tech blend, symbols, and power-level stakes 19:42 Star Trek Day roundup: Starfleet Academy, preschool series on YouTube, scripted Khan audio series, LEGO collab, 60th anniversary plans, Trek cruise, and the Skydance chatter 34:37 Emmys 77 reactions: Studio's comedy sweep, Hacks love, Severance kudos, Andor writing win, and Hannah Einbinder's speech 41:27 WB Discovery vs Midjourney: what the lawsuit argues, fair use vs training, and where fan art fits 51:42 Superman Saga update: 2027 date, new images, Lex team-ups, Brainiac theories, and what to avoid with multiverse fatigue 58:34 Quick hits to watch for next week: TikTok U.S. buyout deadline, Disney + Webtoon digital comics platform 58:59 Recommendations: Foundation, Borderlands 4, Dimension 20 and Critical Role hype 01:04:34 Around the Geek Freaks Network and sign-off Key Takeaways BioShock casting drew strong picks like Cillian Murphy for Andrew Ryan and Gerard Butler or James McAvoy for Atlas, with Ewan McGregor floated for an all-voice heavy Atlas. The Doomsday footage suggests a Doom who mixes sorcery and engineering. Runes, sigils, and visuals hint at a villain who can carry multiverse-level stakes. Star Trek is gearing up for a busy 60th year with new shows, a kids series on YouTube to hook the next generation, a scripted Khan audio drama, and a LEGO partnership. Emmys 77 landed well for comedy and recognized top craft like Andor's writing. Studio earned the “actual comedy” praise many fans were looking for. The Midjourney suit could set important lines around training on copyrighted works. The show breaks down the difference between commentary fair use and model training. DCU chatter points to Brainiac as the smart next-step foil that forces a Lex and Superman team-up, while keeping the multiverse in check. Community notes: Geek Freaks will be out at events, and the Network has new episodes across the slate. Quotes “It looks comic accurate. More than I thought it would be.” “They're really good at visual storytelling in the MCU. This is the next facet of that.” “Studio is what The Bear pretended to be for years.” “We're in the early stages of the law. You have to scrape the edges to shape something that makes sense.” “Can we just not do the multiverse? Let's stay in this universe.” Call to Action If you enjoyed this one, follow and subscribe, drop a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, and share the episode with a friend using #GeekFreaksPod.

For prospective PlayStation 5 owners, America's new tariff regime has struck at a most inopportune time. Having carved through their backfill of PS5 units in America, and seemingly moving at least some of the console's manufacturing process out of China, Sony still has to foot the bill to import the machine. A $50 increase across the board -- on standard and Pro units alike -- has led to much consternation. What do we think about the whole situation? Beware: It's impossible to talk about this issue sans politics. Plus: Hollow Knight: Silksong gets a surprise release date in literally two weeks, storied 'closer' Rod Fergusson joins Cloud Chamber to help ship the beleaguered fourth BioShock, Triangle Strategy randomly launches on PS5 (but not PS4) three years after its Switch debut, long-time studio lead Pete Parsons leaves Bungie after more than 20 years, PS3 JRPG Tales of Xillia is finally being remastered, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Is there a desire for more modern and grounded military shooters? Should Guerrilla abandon Aloy as Horizon's protagonist? What's our hype level (if any) for Borderlands 4? Is Dustin's hometown well and truly haunted?

On episode 183 of March Forth with Mike Bauman, Mike chats with Johnny Zirkel! Originally from New Jersey, Johnny is a California-based musician, producer, songwriter, and content creator, among numerous other hats he wears. Over the years, he's performed in the nu-punk band The Wildfires Projekt, and also developed and hosted of the show Sounds of the Underground. An alternative rock TV series which features interviews and live performances from both up-and-coming and established artists in the alternative, punk, and hardcore music scenes, the Zirkel-hosted Sounds of the Underground aired on CBS, Amazon Prime, and Samsung TV. In recent years, Zirkel has been releasing music under his own name. Additionally, Zirkel has been building his audience as a content creator on socials through videos and shorts that share his sense of humor, love for music, video games, and more. The music videos for his singles "Going Blind" and "Rapture" with Outline In Color - the former inspired by Fallout and the latter inspired by Bioshock - have racked up over 165,000 and 193,000 YouTube views, respectively. In April, Zirkel just dropped his latest single entitled "Upside Down," the lyrics and artwork of which are inspired by The Killers. In this episode, Johnny talks with Mike his decision to start releasing music and content under his own name, his love for video games and their influence on the songs "Going Blind" and "Rapture," not getting caught up in the comparison game of social media and industry stereotypes, persevering through career and mental health challenges, the excitement and changes that come with being a new dad, and more. This episode of the podcast also features the song "Upside Down" from Johnny Zirkel, available where you get your music! Follow Johnny on Instagram @johnnyzirkel.

Sony is a many-tendrilled corporation, which can be both a blessing and a curse. But in fully leveraging all that the wider company does well, it seems they're closer than ever to achieving the "One Sony" goal from years and decades past. Enter Physint (sometimes typed PHYSINT, for some reason), a Hideo Kojima-led project revealed last year as a mysterious cross-pollination between PlayStation and Sony Pictures, one that appears to go into a distinctly Metal Gear Solid-like direction. With Death Stranding 2 now in the past, Kojima is confirmed to be working on Physint itself, presumably for PlayStation 6, which raises some questions, like: What will the game be like? When will it come out? Will it be a commercial success? We know so little about it, and yet, that's never stopped us before, so why start now? Plus: Arrowhead rather blatantly teases a Helldivers 2/Halo crossover, Strauss Zelnick expresses confidence in GTA6's Spring '26 release window and promises that BioShock 4 will indeed launch one day, rumors percolate about upcoming Resident Evil remakes, Crimson Desert gets delayed, PUBG is the next game to reveal it's leaving PlayStation 4 behind, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! What's the best stoner game? Are people overreacting to recent PlayStation executives' chatter about moving away from hardware? Is Danganronpa actually bad?

Let's catch up with Sean post-New York. He's been playing Time Flies, Is This Seat Taken?, and Drag X Drive. Paul is playing a ton of the Battlefield 6 beta. During news we discuss Bithell Games reporting layoffs, Nintendo raises the original Switch price in the US, and BioShock 4 isn't doing well. TDP is listener funded. Like what you hear?

If Sony's recent fiscal report shows anything, it's that PlayStation is turning into a bona fide money printer. Yes, PS5 has surpassed 80 million units sold, and that in and of itself is a substantial figure. But the more interesting numbers reside in the financials, where the brand netted more in profit in a single three month period than it did for much of entire previous generations. That's completely insane. So let's discuss PlayStation's meteoric growth, what it means, and how Sony may be doing all of this with one arm tied behind its back. Plus: Media Molecule loses its final founding member, the new BioShock game is in trouble, Lost Soul Aside goes gold, Starfield is rumored to be PS5-bound in 2026, Darksiders 4 gets announced, Silent Hill F brings the franchise into an action-oriented direction, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Is PlayStation Plus fundamentally underrated? Could Battlefield 6 outsell Call of Duty: Black Ops 7? Are we on the verge of having to verify our identity on PSN? Will Colin travel to a nearby town to try and find life-sized box art of the old game X-Blades?

The year of the Ninja rages on! Fresh off Ninja Gaiden 2 Black and Ninja Gaiden Ragebound, we have more ninjas to talk about thanks to the new Shinobi demo alongside Ninja Gaiden 4. In a seemingly impossible move, Xbox brought together two legendary Japanese developers to reactivate a franchise that had laid dormant since 2012. There were still question marks even after a strong showing at this years Developer Direct. At the top of everyone's list following a ton of layoffs was simply: Does PlatinumGames still have it? Well, it appears that despite the winds of change blowing through the studio, the new wave of talent at Platinum is more than up to the task.
