Critical Diversions ·

2023/09/11

Collin Williams, Seth Sturgill, Jim Masi, Andrew Wilkins, and Matt Murray link up (sans passcodes) to talk about the Zelda Oracle games for the GameBoy Color, recently re-released on Switch. Along the way, they talk about trying to appreciate art from the perspective of the time in which it was made, our general thoughts on Zelda as a series, milk mouth, and horny tree.

005 - Sephonie

Critical Diversions ·

2023/08/03

Andrew Wilkins, Seth Sturgill, Hunter, and Matt Murray link up to talk about Sephonie, the latest game from Analgesic Productions. The conversation gets as heady and in the weeds as you'd expect from this group of folk talking about an existential 3D platformer/puzzle game/visual novel from one of the best game development studios on the planet.

Seth Sturgill, Andrew Wilkins, and Matt Murray enter the Critical Diversions branded cage to fight about Alan Wake. Turns out, there wasn't as much to fight about as we thought. The combat ain't great though.

Collin Williams, Andrew Wilkins, Hunter, Ian, Seth Sturgill, and Matt Murray throw the format of the show out the window on only the third episode to talk about their favorite games of 2023 so far, all while trying to not embarrass themselves while Jim silently judges.

Critical Diversions ·

2023/06/23

Seth Sturgill, Hunter, Andrew Wilkins, and Matt Murray get together to talk about the WarioWare series in its entirety, from its humble beginnings as the minigame "Sound Blaster" within a Mario Paint successor for the ill-fated Nintendo 64 DD add-on, all the way up to their hopes and dreams for the just announced "WarioWare: Move It!", coming later this year to the Nintendo Switch.

001 - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Critical Diversions ·

2023/06/09

For the very first episode of Critical Diversions, Andrew Wilkins, Seth Sturgill, Collin Williams, and Matt Murray get together to talk about Tears of the Kingdom. It's nearly three hours of largely unorganized talk, and it was a blast all around, despite some technical issues. WARNING: There are spoilers for all facets of the game within, so if you would prefer to wait until you've beaten it, go ahead; we'll still be here.
