In der Welt des Videogamecasts treffen Leidenschaft und Expertise auf eine bunte Palette von Videospielen, die mehr sind als nur Zeitvertreib. Sie sind die digitalen Leuchtfeuer in den Gaming-Biografien von Tobi und Gordon. Tobi, mit einem Faible für das Außergewöhnliche, wählt Spiele, die das Spektrum der Emotionen und Genres abdecken. Von der düsteren Eleganz in „Mega Man X4“ über die luftigen Abenteuer in „Skies of Arcadia“, bis hin zur tiefgründigen Erzählung von „Grandia 2“. Nicht zu vergessen die intensive Action von „Doom 2016“ und die postapokalyptische Weite von „Fallout 2“. Gordon, auf der anderen Seite, zeigt seine Vorliebe für klassische Meisterwerke und verborgene Schätze. „Super Mario World“ und „Super Mario Land 2: The Six Golden Coins“ stehen als Zeugen seiner nostalgischen Reise, während „Planetside 1“ und „Gangsters“ die Vielfalt seines Geschmacks unterstreichen. Dieser Podcast ist mehr als nur ein Gespräch über Spiele. Es ist eine Einladung, gemeinsam in Erinnerungen zu schwelgen, Neues zu entdecken und vielleicht auch das eine oder andere Spiel wieder hervorzukramen, das schon zu lange in Vergessenheit geraten ist. Tobi und Gordon teilen nicht nur ihre Lieblingsspiele, sondern auch die Geschichten, die diese für sie so besonders machen. Tritt ein in eine Welt, wo Gaming-Kultur lebendig wird und die Liebe zum Detail ebenso zählt wie die Freude am Spiel. Viel Spaß beim hören Gordon & Tobi

Coriolis is a beacon of something fresh for politics, trade, and “quality of life”. Others see it as cultural imperialism. Nonetheless, the Icons stir. They are jealous. The Zenithian's new way beckons the Darkness Between the Stars. Even ghosts from planet Xene currently observe the Council of Factions. The new governor, Kamal Dargosian, is only a year into office and the people are already secretly questioning their capabilities. But amidst this political battlefield is an even more pressing matter -- there is currently a high-rolling contract issued by the Consortium to hire a Free Trader group willing to investigate the Taoan system.

Wrel is the Lead Designer of Planetside 2. This podcast focuses on Outfit Wars, Planetside 2's premiere competitive event, which pits outfit vs. outfit in a 48 vs. 48 player conflict over the frozen Nexus sub-continent that's half chess match and half deathmatch. In addition, Wrel also chatts about life as a game dev, how to read between the lines of community feedback, the everyday Planetside debate of whether or not to kill spawn points, and some of his hottest personal takes on the game and its community.

Michael Mammay is a repeat offender on Coffee in Space, with this being the third time I've had him on. I've had him on the show to talk this week about his recently released novel Weight of Command, out now exclusively on Audible.com. We talk a lot about what it would be like to be a young officer suddenly in charge of saving not only your command, but also stopping a war. And on top of that, trying to figure out who killed all the other officers! As my career progressed through the Navy enlisted ranks, we also talk a lot about Master Sergeant Herns, who's my favorite character of the book. Michael has also joined me to talk about his Planetside books. You can listen to Episode 35 HERE. We also briefly mentioned Ursula K. LeGuinn's Left hand of Darkness. It's well worth your time.

Tony is joined by Season Regular Sir Wiggles and the two talk about the recent Planetside 2 update, The Over saturation of World War Video Games, and your weekly recap of Video Game News, and Upcoming Game Releases!Follow Tony: https://twitter.com/RadioT0nyTwitch: https://www.twitch.tv/tonysgameloungeFollow Sir Wiggles: https://twitter.com/WigglesisGreatTwitch: https://www.twitch.tv/sirwigglesthegreatSupport Ukraine: https://ukrainewar.carrd.co/

Wrel is the Lead Designer of Planetside 2 at Rogue Planet Games (RPG). He lead the design of Oshur, Planetside's first new continent since 2014, which debuted new water interactions for infantry and vehicles as well as 2nd chapter of Distant Shores story campaign. In this podcast, Wrel talks about how Oshur and its water mechanics came to be, and how its lattice and bases were designed to create "back of the box" Planetside experiences. Wrel also gives a campaign health check, explains what's going on with the spawn system, and discusses Planetside's 2022 roadmap including: the merits of a lore codex, Outfit Wars' return as a 1v1 contest on Nexus, and the importance of making NSO outfits whole. Lastly, Wrel shares his philosophy on what makes Planetside unique, and how that figures into resource gain, force multipliers, combined arms, and Deeg's vision of "big" and "lil'" Planetside.

Camikaze78 is a Planetside 2 creator, caster, and streamer. In 2021 he casted Outfit Wars and participated in the game's official Extra Life fundraising event. In this podcast, Camikaze78 talks about his disappointment with Battlefield 2042, the move from Twitch to YouTube, how he changed his mind about Planetside's polarizing MAX suits, and shares his thoughts on the tropical continent of Oshur and what means for vehicle and infantry players. Camikaze78 also discusses his philosophy on drama, fostering an inclusive community, and what it means to embody authority in the world of content creation.

Cmdr. Cyrious is a long-time Planetside 2 content creator and community leader. After co-casting Outfit Wars in early 2021, he stepped up as community organizer for the Late Shift's invasion of Planetside 2. The events successfully showed thousands of viewers fun Planetside experiences, but weren't without their critics. In this podcast, Cyrious discusses the figures and forces behind Outfit Wars Alpha 3's infamous double-teaming, how a handful of bad eggs turned the Late Shift's streaming success sour, and how it all turned two creators against each other. Oh, and Oshur. That too.

I value the gift of books and hope you'll use my recommendations to fill the stockings of your science fiction and fantasy loving friends and family members.Before I give you my short list of recommendations, I want to tell you that the links below help support my podcast through Amazon.com's affiliate program. As I've mentioned on my podcast several times, I'd always rather you get your books at independent or local bookstores. However, if you're using Amazon, I'd appreciate it if you'd use my link. My number one pick for the holiday season is Zen Cho's Black Water Sister, an urban fantasy set in Malaysia. I thought Zen's book was a great mix family drama, fantasy, lore, and eastern myth. Not only is her writing good, but she interviews very well also. Listen to episode 52 to see what I mean. Get a copy of Black Water Sister and enjoy the read.Number 2 on my list goes to C. Robert Cargill's Day Zero, which I read in about three days this year and cried at the end. I believe it's his best work. It is the prequel to his previous novel, Sea of Rust, which I also read this year and enjoyed. We discussed both of those books on Episode 51. Rounding out my top three is Xueting Christine Ni's anthology called Sinopticon 2021. Xueting joined me on a very informative podcast episode to talk about putting together this translated anthology. Enjoy that episode and then pick up a copy of the book to read different perspectives on future tech and culture.All Systems Red, by Martha Wells, is number 4 on my list. Unfortunately, I didn't get to have Martha on the show, but I'm hoping to have her on in the future. All Systems Red comes with a really good price and I think you'll enjoy the story about a cyborg who wants to be more than she is.Honorable mention goes to Andy Weir, celebrated author of The Martian and most recently, Project Hail Mary. Andy joined my show for episode 50, and Andy was just a real treat. I really enjoyed Project Hail Mary, and I think you will too.Recommendations for those wanting to start a series:1. Derek Kunsken's Quantum Evolution series, starting with Quantum Magician. I've said it before and I'll keep saying it: Derek Kunsken is a great writer and an even better person. I've always been a fan of his writing. Quantum Magician will get you on his fan list too. You get an Oceans' 11 feel in space with galactic-level stakes. Listen to episode 20 to learn more about his series. Get a copy of Quantum Magician and enjoy the heist!2. Michael Mammay wrote a trio of great books about an old warrior who is too tired to care what people think about him and too stubborn to let something go when he thinks he's onto something. I enjoyed all three books immensely. I think you will too. Get book one, Planetside, and see for yourself! Oh, and once you've got the book, listen to the most recent podcast episode where we talk about the whole series!That's it for this year. For sure these aren't the only books I enjoyed, nor are they the only books you should consider. But for me personally, these are my top picks. Enjoy!

Battlefield 2042 announced today, and we have thoughts about it, and how it will never be Planetside 1. Last of Us stand alone multiplayer game still coming. Overwatch goes full cross-play. Ratchet and Clank might have hit a new all time high. TWO Dear Martha Steam reviews. Cyberpunk, Tainted Grail, RE8, FF14, and the final missions! All that and your emails too!

Lex is a Planetside 2 streamer notorious for his headshot ratio and his blistering tongue. He is a reigning champion of the defunct Planetside 2 Farmer's League, and is an outspoken advocate for skilled ethical gameplay on and off of Auraxis. In this chat, we discuss the cultures that develops among highly skilled gamers and in opposition to them. We also commiserate about the good ol' days of gaming where you had to walk a mile in the snow to find a server on Gamespy, and there was no social media polluted our minds with hootin', hollerin', and gum flappin'. Plus plenty of takes on the state of Planetside 2 and World of Warcraft Classic.

Shoctorr is a Planetside 2 and variety streamer. In April he hosted Planetside 2 Speedrunners and raised $10,000 for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Unchained has returned this week with host Ben Shillabeer-Hall and Garri Bagdasarov at the helm. It's a quiet news week for PlayStation, but there's still a good hour of stuff to talk about: The Planetside 2 beta for PS4 is still planned for 2014, though there isn't much of 2014 left. Also, PlayStation Now has five new games in its ranks, including Mass Effect 2 and Mirror's Edge. The very scary Bloodborne has been delayed until March 2015, and surprisingly, Just Cause 3 is expected to launch in 2015 as well. Meanwhile, Alien Isolation is to receive a patch to fix a game crashing bug. Speaking of patches, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare has gotten its first patch, and Assassin's Creed: Unity really, really needs one. Ben and Garri also have reviews to discuss, including AC Unity and the incredible Dragon Age: Inquisition. Join us next week for episode 61, and remember to tweet us your feedback @PSUdotcom.
