This week on NAFC, the crew bounces between gaming, TV, and movie chaos before diving into the pastel-drenched world of Emma (2020).The gang opens with more talk about Plur1bus—because apparently it's got its hooks in everyone now—followed by their thoughts on Stranger Things Season 5 and where the show might be headed. Mox shares his experience seeing the CS:GO finals live in Hong Kong, which somehow involved more screaming than a metal concert.Izzy brings a little local flavor with his review of the Hong Kong film Love Lies, and then the crew jumps into their review of Emma (2020): matchmaking, mischief, pastels, and perfect collars.Support us on Patreon!

Episode Notes: This week on Zed Games Paul, Hazel, Zahra, and Caroline get into Gaming Garments and Gear while talking the week in #GamingNews before pulling out the smorgasbord of mini games with exciting escapades, perilous quests, magical music, and perspicacious payment plans to whittle away your weekend while playing; Caroline comes to grips with 'Cell to Singularity: evolution never ends' from Computer Lunch, before shattering the heavens in 'Tower Wizard' from Barribob. Paul puzzles away in pixelated perturbation playing 'Eclipsium' from Housefire Games, Zahra zaps us with 'Dice of Kalma' from Pepperbox Studios, and Paul returns to scream along with 'I Write Games not Tragedies' from Studio Wife.

This week Doccy Darko talks to the boys about the new Cricket 26 game after a listener requested a review. There's also a new Far Cry TV Series in the works and you won't believe who is making it. Xbox have teamed with an unlikely footwear brand to make controllers for your feet.

This week on NAFC, the whole gang is here—including Zea! Gibbs opens the episode wrestling with whether he should start gambling (the answer is no, but also… maybe?). Izzy shares updates from his playthrough of Immortals Fenyx Rising, and both he and Gibbs recommend Plur1bus, their latest unexpected obsession.Gibbs also pitches his dream reboot of Disney's Gargoyles, while Izzy vents about how Twisted Wonderland somehow became the latest anime disappointment in the endless catalog of Disney anime experiments.Finally, the crew dives into Frankenstein (2025)—a fresh spin on the classic monster tale and the centerpiece of this week's discussion. With Zea back in the mix, expect chaos, debates, and a lot of side-eye.Support us on Patreon!

Pushing the boundaries of what's possible in gaming often means embracing unproven technologies and building in the fog of innovation. In this episode, host Devin Becker is joined by Marco van den Heuvel, co-founder of Beam, to explore what it means to operate at the bleeding edge of gaming infrastructure. Marco shares the origins of Beam and its evolution into a gaming-focused ecosystem built around frontier tech that includes blockchain, AI, and beyond. The episode covers how Beam is navigating past the noise to uncover the practical, long-term opportunities these technologies can offer game developers and players alike.The discussion also unpacks how AI fits into Beam's broader vision, the future of esports from a tech-powered perspective, and what it will take for blockchain to hit the hype cycle “plateau of productivity.” Devin and Marco dig into the real hurdles in tech adoption, from developer onboarding to ecosystem incentives, while also speculating on what might lie ahead from AR to brain-computer interfaces. If you're interested in where the games industry might be headed next and how to prepare for it, this episode offers a grounded look at the intersection of emerging tech and gaming.We'd like to thank Heroic Labs for making this episode possible!

Today we are feeling nostalgic...for a time long gone, when multiplayer games were only expected to last you for a few hours a week for maybe a month or two. When console wars were the most toxic spats in the gaming space.

We were meant to play timely games, but only Nicco really understood the assignment. However, Brody REALLY enjoyed Pentiment and you may have forgotten it exists. Chris' only timely contributions this week were Sonic Rumble, Sonic Racing Crossworlds, and the first two episodes of Pluribus. Only one of those three brought him joy. Lastly, Nicco is eating crow on turn-based RPGs.

EVE Online is one of the longest-standing MMOs of all time, celebrating its 22nd anniversary since its launch in 2003. In this episode, host Alexandra Takei, Director at Ruckus Games, sits down with CCP Games' CEO Hilmar Petursson to unpack how the Icelandic studio still maintains one of gaming's most complex live worlds, a single universe that has generated over $1B in lifetime revenue and 25 million players. Hilmar walks through CCP's four eras: the pre-Steam founding years, the Steam transition, Pearl Abyss's acquisition, and the studio today, revealing how an original team of thirty developers pioneered player-driven economies, massive social coordination, and a forever game. The conversation then turns to EVE Frontier, CCP's new blockchain-powered spin-off built on the Sui network. Hilmar explains why he believes blockchain is the next natural step in EVE's evolution, not as a trend, but as a means to true player ownership and another step in the direction of a forever game: persistence that is independent of the company, its servers, and its original creators.The episode closes on the state of the industry today from Hilmar's perspective – why attention and discovery are gaming's hardest problems and how developers can learn from EVE's social design to build long-lasting worlds.We'd also like to thank Lysto for making this episode possible!

Streaming live from the Shure booth at DreamHack, I joined Trevor Shipman—aka Uncle Pudge—for a powerful conversation about what we're witnessing on the ground: the Rumble takeover in real time. Everywhere you look, gamers are wearing Rumble jerseys, connecting face-to-face, and building a movement that feels more like family than fandom. We dove deep into how Pickax and Rumble are creating real ownership for creators, breaking free from algorithmic control, and even helping streamers “double dip” their earnings. The future belongs to creators who refuse to be controlled.Follow PudgeTV on Pickax: https://pickax.com/unclepudgeFollow PudgeTV on Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/PudgeTVTune into The Jeff Dornik Show LIVE every Tuesday and Thursday at 1pm ET.

This week on NAFC, the crew kicks things off asking the truly important question: why do we say “smooth like butter”? No one knows, but that doesn't stop them from overanalyzing it. Gibbs has been on a horror bender with Carrie (the original) and Nightmare on Elm Street, while also checking out the game Absolum. Izzy's been busy with Primitive War, Chitose Is in a Ramune Bottle, and the absurdly titled Tactical Breach Wizards. Meanwhile, Mox sharpens his skills in Dino Blade, because apparently dinosaurs and swords are all it takes to make a masterpiece. Finally, the gang dives into The Blair Witch Project (1999)—the found footage horror classic that terrified a generation and made everyone afraid of camping forever. Minimal budget, maximum trauma.

GTA 6 has been pushed to November 2026 after previously moving from a 2025 window to May 2026. Take-Two says the extra time is for polish and quality control, and it continues to back Rockstar. GTA Online's update cadence will not change. We break down what this delay means for players, why the broader entertainment world will feel it, and how GTA 5's long lifespan sets the bar for what comes next. 00:00 GTA 6 delayed to November 2026 and why00:10 GTA Online updates continue on the usual schedule00:20 The ripple effect beyond games00:37 GTA 5's longevity and expectations for GTA 600:56 Why taking more time is better than rushingGTA 6 has shifted to November 2026 to focus on polish and quality.Take-Two publicly supports Rockstar through the new timeline.GTA Online updates remain on track, so live service players keep their routine.The launch window will influence marketing tie-ins, time-off plans, and merchandise across industries.GTA 5's 15-year tail and 220 million sales set a high bar for GTA 6's quality and staying power.A perfect day-one matters when GTA Online is part of the plan from the start.“GTA six just got delayed. No surprise there.”“GTA Online release cadence is not going to be changed at all.”“This game has to be perfect.”“The delay sucks and the memes will continue, but it is best that they get this thing right.”Enjoying Geek Freaks Headlines?

The videos for different franchises released this past week! Listen in to hear what games were shown. And what updates are coming to the REVerse and Animal Crossing Mew Horizon,

In this week's episode, Sorg and Dudders get geeky about AI in everyday life — from redesigning homes with ChatGPT to tracking calories with conversational AI. Then guest Brian Crawford takes us on a deep dive through Japan's advanced transit tech, immersive art museums, and cultural quirks. We also preview Pittsburgh's AI & Robotics Demo Day and catch up with Chachi's gaming news minute. Perfect for fans of AI tools, travel tech, and real-world innovation.

In this episode, host Kalie Moore talks with Zach Letter, Co-founder & CEO of Wonder Works Studio, the makers of hit Roblox experiences, including three SpongeBob titles this year. We dig into how creator roots shape game design and distribution, how influencer-native teams launch differently, and Wonder Works' long-term bet on licensed IP.The conversation dives into launching without paid UA, weekly live-ops that drive creator content, and when brands should integrate into hit experiences versus build standalone worlds. Zach also shares what makes an IP “Roblox-ready,” how transmedia loops amplify impact across YouTube, Discord, and merch, and why he believes UGC's rise is unstoppable.We'd like to thank Overwolf for making this episode possible!

It's Halloween on NAFC, and the crew's dressed in existential dread instead of costumes. The gang kicks things off debating whether gaming in 4K is really worth it—or just another flex for people with too much disposable income. Izzy's been deep into Full Metal Furies and The Legend of Hei, while Mox takes a surprisingly wholesome detour with Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid. Gibbs, meanwhile, crowns Scream (1996) the godfather of teen slashers before sharing one of the most uncomfortable dressing room encounters imaginable. They also briefly revisit Weapons before speculating wildly about the mysterious upcoming film Him. Finally, the crew dives into Men in Black (1997)—the ultimate mix of sci-fi, deadpan humor, and gooey practical effects. It's nostalgic, it's weird, and somehow, it still holds up better than most modern blockbusters. Support us on Patreon!

We all have that one game series that seems like it'd be pretty cool to enjoy, but it's just far too daunting to actually take the time to experience. The Witcher, Yakuza, Kingdom Hearts, Fortnite...yeah, Fortnite. Which one is objectively the most difficult though?

In this episode, host Alexandra Takei, Director at Ruckus Games, sits down with Robert van Hoesel, co-founder and CEO of First Look, now part of Pragma, to explore how studios can own and scale their player relationships. Robert's journey from founding a SaaS company to building First Look began with one simple insight: game studios are some of the most passionate users a software builder could serve, and the games industry desperately needs the dream stack for connected distribution, player communications, and analytics. First Look acts as a CRM for games, helping studios streamline playtesting, gather player feedback, and grow grassroots communities. The pair discusses why these capabilities have become essential as publishers pull back, competition increases, and self-publishing becomes the norm. Robert shares how First Look enables small teams to punch above their weight by automating data capture across platforms like Steam and Discord, transforming scattered playtest feedback into actionable insights, and shares the full suite of offerings First Look provides for studios today.They also unpack First Look's acquisition by Pragma and what it means to unify the backend and frontend of game development. The episode closes with practical advice for studios: start community-building early, close the feedback loop with players, and reward engagement to create sustainable, loyal audiences.We'd also like to thank Levellr — the Discord community intelligence platform — for making this episode possible.
