Getting rich in three easy steps

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2021/01/29

Did you buy Gamestop stock? No? Neither did we. Chamberlain bought a raffle ticket in the form of a (spoiler) bad horror game called Visage, but Immortals Fenyx Rising and Cyber Shadow were more than good enough to make up for the loss. Chance took the short option on Tracer, and sure enough she is getting nerfed. He also would make an exceptional hired killer after playing a lot of Hitman. And Alex stuck to the blue-chip stocks, made a slight profit, and spent it on mods for Fallout New Vegas.

Warm fuzzies

2021/01/22

Remember what it was like to be happy? Content? Warm and fuzzy? Games can do that just as well as anything else. Chamberlain and officially spent more time on Immortals Fenyx Rising than he did on Assassin's Creed Valhalla because (gasp) it is more fun to play. Chance picked up Hitman 2 on sale, which lead him to him buying Hitman 3 and not being able to play, but that in no way diminished how powerful his fish was. And Alex has gone totally against type and is replaying Fallout New Vegas as an

Age before beauty

Prepare for the Statler and Waldorf of video game podcasts. Without Alex, Chamberlain and Chance just seem so much older. And crankier. Chance has passed 200 hours in Cyberpunk and is quite thankful for the game that so many others have said should not have been released in its present condition. Chamberlain is quite content with Immortals Fenyx Rising. It is Assassin's Creed, minus all the overwrought story nonsense, plus Breath of the Wild dungeons. It's January, folks.

Best games of 2020

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2021/01/08

Congratulations, you made it! It is now 2021 and your reward is one last best of 2020. While there may not be many surprises on this year's list, it is still a good one, and is officially the last time anyone will ask you to think about the year that shall not be named. Chance is still playing Cyberpunk 2077 after giving up on Yakuza Like a Dragon. Alex has stuck by his Yakuza purchase and Chamberlain insists that Immortals Fenyx Rising is a good game. No, really, it's good.

Sony versus CD Project - Sony wins

2020/12/18

It's week 2 of Cyberpunk 2077 talk, this time with Chamberlain, who is less than enthused with the shooting and driving. Alex is proud to be playing the only version of the game that is anywhere close to feature complete. Chance is quite happy with the game on PS5 and is within spitting distance of wrapping up his first playthrough. That a lot of cyber punking in a short amount of time. Our condolences to PlayStation users who, as of recording, can no longer buy the game. Note from Chamberlain:

Cyber punked

2020/12/11

Cyberpunk 2077 nearly broke Steam, doesn't really run on last gen consoles and might kill you if you suffer from epilepsy, but it is finally out and one can customize their genitalia. It just might be the most '2020' a game can be. Chance and Alex are here to tell you what you need to know, just not too much. The game came out less than a day ago, after all.

Cyberpunk incoming

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/12/04

It is getting more difficult to pass the time until Cyberpunk 2077. Chamberlain still wishes he was playing Assassin's Creed Valhalla, but not being able to save is kind of a deal breaker, so he dipped unto the back catalog for The Missing and then, because he was not stressed enough, started work on Ghostrunner. Alex was able to fix his broken Valhalla but was lured away by the beautiful reflections of the ray tracing enabled Control. And Chance is on either his second or third play through of the

Same bugs, more ray tracing

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/11/28

All the teraflops in the world can't fix Assassin's Creed bugs. Chamberlain would very much like to be playing Valhalla but the last patch broke fast travel and saving, so he is being visually overwhelmed (not in a good way) by Dirt 5 instead. Chance plays the only real next gen game, Demon's Souls, as it is a promise of what the new machines can really do. And Alex significantly ups his GPU horsepower becasuse a new video card was a thing that he could but with money and a PS5 still is not.

New boss same as the old boss

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/11/20

The next generation has finally arrived in full. Chance has obtained his PS5, Chamberlain has both because he lacks common sense, and Alex continues to use his gaming PC, pledging his continued allegiance to the PC master race. No spoilers for Spider-Man Miles Morales this week, but all bets are off soon. Chance celebrates his new box by playing an old game at a better frame rate and resolution. Chamberlain tries and fails to find enough hours to play everything and Alex decides that sleep is now

Fuck Walmart

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/11/13

Welcome to the new generation! Sort of. Chamberlain has obtained an Xbox Series X and it feels more like buying a new video card than a new console. And neither Chance nor Chamberlain have a PS5. So Fuck Walmart. But there are games being played! Alex and Chance have played Assassin's Creed Valhalla and have managed to make Chamberlain vibrate with anticipation. He can't wait to stop playing Watch Dogs Legion. And so begins the next next gen - with a lot of yelling and just a tinge of

Between things

2020/11/06

In case anyone has forgotten, Chance is Canadian. This means that he is extraordinarily polite, has a plus three bonus to cold resistance and has a vested interest in what goes on to the south of his very large, unguarded border. And just like Chance and Chamberlain are between console generations at the moment with no real guarantee on when the next will arrive, Chamberlain and Alex are between White House regimes. Neither of these positions are comfortable. Chance makes do with Ghost of Tsushima

Surprise legends

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/10/23

Weeks ago, both Chance and Alex dismissed the Ghost of Tsushima Legends expansion. Multiplayer samurai adventures? Who would want to play that? It turns out that Destiny 2 plus a sweet parry mechanic is Chance's kryptonite as that has, for the moment, pulled him away from Overwatch. Alex throws $15 down a hole and tries Fallout 76. He says it's fine but that may just be a coping mechanism. And Chamberlain makes the sad realization that he is too jaded to be frightened by a game even when that is

Anticipation and Release

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/10/16

As the generation winds down our heroes need to dig deeper for entertainment. Chance returns to old (and new) friends in Overwatch and Ghost of Tsushima. Chamberlain spends a few fleeting moments with pixel art indies Huntdown and Ikenfell. And Alex dives deep into the lore or Warhammer with Warhammer 2 Total War. Plus just a little more Hades talk. No minds have been changed.

No one is right all the time

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/10/02

Pickings are a bit slim this week. Chamberlain didn't play Hades (on purpose). It's October now, so it is time for spooky games and the best he could come up with is Maid of Sker. Alex waited several years and several price drops to play Lord of the Rings: Shadow of War, a very smart decision. And Chance played just enough 13 Sentinels to be disappointed by it, just enough Spelunky 2 to be frustrated by it and just enough No Man's Sky to question his 'Alex was right' stance.

The no preorder episode

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/09/25

Chamberlain would like to apologize for his mood. He did not secure an Xbox Series X preorder and therefore everything is terrible. Even Hades. Chance insists that Hades is good but does not know quite what to make of 13 Sentinels, splitting time between that and a host of spooky movies. Alex also insists that Hades is good, inching in on game of the year territory before Cyberpunk even comes out.

The other shoe has dropped and two of our heroes have pre-ordered a PS5. The third, being Alex, has wisely decided to wait just a bit. Chamberlain has moved on from being disappointed in Marvel's Avengers to being disappointed in Minoria. Chance was also made sad by Minoria but has been having too much fun with Star Renegades to notice. And Alex beds down with another Borderlands 3 expansion because he is a good and loyal man. Also, yes, Chamberlain got the episode number wrong in the intro. Feel

Different flavors of scary

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/09/11

This week Chance indulges in a few scary movies. Well, two horror movies and a third starring David Spade, but close enough. He also gets killed by smurfs in Overwatch, which is not nearly as funny as it sounds. Chamberlain plays the new Destiny 2 expansion called Marvel's Avengers after turning tale and running from the final boss of Luna Nights. And Alex enjoys the bounty of a Humble Bundle, playing Grim Dawn, Tales of Vesperia and Star Renegades. Finally, one of the new consoles has a price and

The generation in review, part 2

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/09/04

Much like we all have been forced to wait for a price and date announcement for the new consoles, you have been unfairly forced to wait for part two of the generation in review. Chamberlain's dead laptop apoloigizes. Also this week: Chance plays some Overwatch and gets hate mail, Alex watched some movies, and Chamberlain quit playing what he thought was a music game to play an actual music game, only this time with metal instead of EDM. He definitely traded up.

The generation in review, part 1

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/08/21

As we near the end of the generation (hopefully) Chamberlain, Chance and Alex reflect of the current one, picking out their ten favorite games each. Part one is this week! On top of that, Chamberlain is embarrassed to admit he is playing Fairy Tale, just not embarrassed enough to stop playing. Alex is giving The Outer Worlds a second and play through and Chance relaxes with two indies on his Switch.

Scared of a lot of things

Chamberlain and Chance ·

2020/08/14

It had to happen. Chamberlain has played what may be the worst game of 2020 and managed to still be amused by Fast & Furious Crossroads. Alex revisits Horizon Zero Dawn, specifically on PS4, as the PC port is currently bollocks. And Chance watched one horror movie, attempted to watch another, and then visited said horror upon others in Overwatch.
