2025/08/11

Chris and Kevin are joined by Wayneisboss for THE Donkey Kong Bananza spoilercast. We give some general thoughts up front, and then give a few tiers of spoiler warning as we delve further in. To be safe though, it'd be best to listen to this if you've already beaten the game or just don't mind hearing some of the places it goes.

#116 A serious talk about payment processors and Itch

Crubcast ·

2025/08/04

On today's episode we wanted to talk about what's going on with Visa, Mastercard, Itch.io, and potentially more and more storefronts in all mediums in the near future. We get into some sensitive topics, particularly with the discussion around the game called 'No Mercy'. There are chapter marks to skip that section, but there are a few mentions of traumatic subjects outside of that portion to help provide context for discussion's sake with what has been removed. We do have some goofy talk

#115 Revisiting IGN's 2010 Top 100 Video Game...

Crubcast ·

2025/07/28

There is a notorious IGN top 100 list from the year 2010, going over the top video game villains. Some of it is expected. The aliens from Space Invaders. Bowser. Ganondorf. Some of it is weird, but acceptable. King Hippo, for example. However, some of this bends the known understanding of "video game villain". Number six may shock you.

#114 Who should revive all of these dead franchises?

Crubcast ·

2025/07/21

In light of the...everything...going on with Microsoft, we wanted to take a more positive spin from it since the negatives have been thoroughly covered by those suited to do so. That said, a link to the layoff news is below as a starting point, if you missed what's been going on. So if Microsoft is going to lay off every person they hired while still keeping Xbox going...who should they contract and pay to work on their games? Heck, who should PlayStation and Nintendo do this with as well

Crubcast ·

2025/07/14

This week we decided to be more like a normal gaming podcast and talk about different topics. EA sure is releasing just mostly sports games and Sims packs lately, huh? Plus, Moriarty's burning hot Kojima takes that left Sean smoldering in the ashes. As punishment, Sean...he...look. You'll listen and then you'll understand our pain.

#112 How should an in-game economy be balanced?

2025/07/07

How do you make an in-game economy "just right"? How do you balance it to fit the needs of the most players possible? How do you tune a game to prepare for "a Nicco"?

2025/06/23

Justin approached us with a devious game. We're all familiar with top 100 lists, but we never focus on the bottom end of them. So what if we tried to guess as close as we can to #100? Dreamcast, PS3, Spotify, passing yards...we...we spent 10 minutes trying to guess ANY song from Spotify...MORE PLACES TO FIND USCrubscribe ► https://bit.ly/CrubcastGet the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/crubOur Crubcasts are recorded LIVE at

Still, we didn't want to not release anything for you today, so have this audio version of when M and Nicco first watched the first Pokemon movie!Two of us who are far too familiar with Pokémon sat down two people who are far less familiar with Pokémon and made them watch the first movie. They came to us with many questions, most of which have no good answer. It made us question

2025/06/12

Hundreds of games were shown off this past weekend at Summer Game Fest. So we brought Geoff Keighley over to introduce our own event, Crubber Games Fest, where we talk about all of his showcases. Was it worth it? Well, Brody thinks so, and Brody is the only one who actually watched them all, so...good job, Geoff!MORE PLACES TO FIND USCrubscribe ► https://bit.ly/CrubcastGet the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/crubOur Crubcasts are recorded LIVE

2025/06/02

We begin this episode by asking ourselves if we were ever console warriors. We totally never were. That question sent us down a path of examining video game fandom in general, from it never knowing what it actually wants to never knowing the reality of what it wants.

How do you decide when to push through a rough spot in a game versus giving it up entirely? Have you fought The Big Guy in Elden Ring? Have your friends followed you into the woods?

This is an episode about games we play while focusing on something else, or having something on in the background while we game. Scientifically this is probably our most "zoomer" episode, but putting "zoomer" in scare quotes does bring us back from the brink a bit.
