Gimmick Awards 2022 – Biggest Disappointment Recount

Scanline Talks ·

2023/02/06

Stop the presses- we got one wrong. This is unprecedented, but we have to change a category's winner. We wouldn't go back because we played more and felt differently, or because we rolled the arguments around in our heads and decided we made the wrong call. No, we're going back because a friend pointed out that in the Biggest Disappointment category, we were arguing based on incorrect information. And that doesn't feel quite fair. So here we are. Our intro and outro music for the Gimmick Awards

Gimmick Awards 2022 – Best Movelist Podcast

Scanline Talks ·

2023/02/04

One of our traditions over here at the Gimmick Awards is this category, in its various incarnations. The name might confuse, but it's a straightforward idea: in any variety of action game, moves and tools are given to specific characters. Which character has the most interesting and fun overall toolset? When this category started, our focus was purely on fighting games, but over the years we've broadened it to character action games, shooters, MOBAs, and more. And with so many of these being live

Gimmick Awards 2022 – Biggest Disappointment Podcast

2023/02/02

Games are really hard to make. Simply getting one out the door is always an achievement, something to be proud of. And these awards started as a celebration purely of games, though they've elevated to being one of more types of media. But we can't be all smiles. Sometimes choices are made with games that are just... disappointing, you know? We get our hopes up, and seeing them be destroyed stings. And so despite everything, we need to talk about the Biggest Disappointment of 2022. The Nominees

2023/01/30

Welcome to the start of Scanline Media's game of the year celebration, our Gimmick Awards 2022! Over the course of four weeks, we'll be publishing thirteen categories, each its own podcast and paired write-up on the site for winners. We're opening the year on a staple- Best Surprise! At the ripe old age of 33, I am harder to surprise than I used to be, but the delight of the unexpected still hits you sometimes. Please enjoy Jen, Kyrie, and Six (that's me) debating and deciding the Best Surprise

And that's a season (nee cours)! After 12 episodes, The Witch from Mercury is going on break until the next season, and so are we... if we come back at all? Join Allen and Six as we talk about the season as it's been, and how 12 turns a lot of that on its head, for good or for ill. Though, I don't need to be too coy- as you will discover quickly, we're mostly of the opinion "for ill."

The second-to-last episode of the cours! Shaddiq holds his breath, Suletta catches her breath, Vim curses under his breath, and Delling doesn't waste his breath. Step aside, Type-Moon, there are TWO witches on this holy night. And is that an Aerial upgrade I spy? Damn, gang- this episode's good, so was the last, and I think the next will be great as well. I'm just hoping the break between cours doesn't kill this momentum.

We're all hustling and bustling as the year winds down, but you KNOW we're never too busy for you! Sit down with us as we talk games- Jen says the Callisto Protocol is as much Punch-Out!! as it is Dead Space, Six has come around on Spelunky 2 after initial crushing disappointment, and Kyrie has sold out... her potion stock in Potionomics. In chronological order, our music is 8bit23 by Koichi Morita, The Callisto Protocol Main Theme by Finishing Move Inc. (Brian Trifon and Brian Lee White),

Oh boy, we sure are winding up for a mid-season, end-of-cours finale. Can you feel it? Schemes, misunderstandings, unfortunate coincidences… and into all of it, we're gonna toss a few new witches and their gundams and see what happens. I uh… I have a guess. I think it's gonna end badly for our pals.

On this episode, a turning point, as Allen listens with polite bemusement as Six lays out a theory as to what exactly is going on in this show. We get our first team duel, we see the triumph of the GUND format over the technology that almost killed it, and Miorine has already forgotten she's trying to start a medical company. Three episodes left, gang. It's about to start poppin', for real. And Six's theory will be put to the test right quick.

G-Witch. Listen. Listen listen listen. You gotta stop writing checks. Do you HAVE a bank account? These are going to bounce! No one can cash these! Settle down, build a foundation, follow through. THEN write checks. But stop touching a dozen interesting issues with no commitment to truly engaging with them, and a clumsy handling of what little you try! Please. I'm begging you.

It's time for a talkie episode. I like talkie episodes, Allen is less a fan, but either way, the thing about talkie eps is, you have to talk a lot. And G-Witch? Not great at the talking. So, here we are, an episode that's a blessing and a curse, but might free the show from the Curse of Gundam, in more ways than one. Even if it's sloppy, if this fixes the trap they built for themselves in the plot, I'm all for it.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022) Spoilercast

2022/11/18

They put out another Call of Duty. Its politics suck. Some things never change. But they might be worse in this one than you think... and yet, the campaign is also probably more interesting than you think? They made another Modern Warfare, and they couldn't decide if they wanted it to be a tribute to MW2 or a pointed note about everything wrong with that game. It's a mess, and it's (sigh) really fun. You can find Six on Twitter at @sixdettmar. You cannot find Harri. He's unknowable. The intro and

Refresh Rate returns with another episode of Jen, Kyrie and Six recounting standout media and experiences from the past month. After bouncing off Sonic Frontiers hard, Six has fallen into Freedom Planet and its sequel, finding there what they couldn't in the series that inspired it. Jen is braving the season of death in Harvestella, and finding there's less harvesting than you'd expect given the name? And Kyrie is here to report back from a year where she finally felt safe returning to conventions,

A twist in the Elan Saga! Allen and Six are hanging with Lilique the Homie this week as we unravel the mystery of Why Are You Like This Starring Elan Ceres. It turns out... we now know why he's like this. To be fair, it was pretty clear from the start, it was just hard confirmation. Wonder what the next draft will be like....

Both sides are claiming victory this episode, as Allen declares that clearly, the events of this ep prove that Elan is a villain, while Six declares that obviously, the events of this episode prove that Elan is a good guy. At the very least we're in agreement that this was a really good episode. Also that lasers- not beams, actual lasers- are sick as heck.

And with this third episode, it finally feels like we have a sense of what the rhythm and structure of this first cour will be like. We see another great fight, a pretty sick mobile suit design, and more parents strangling their children with their own petty ambitions. Just because Tomino isn't working on this one doesn't mean this show doesn't think adults suck.

I know this is just weeb hours right now, but Suisei no Majou has really good mouthfeel. So does The Witch from Mercury, but it's a very different feeling! Starting smooth and ending harsh, versus starting harsh and ending with intrigue, maybe? That second one is perhaps a decent description of this episode, which both Allen and Six feel is a downbeat after the very strong first episode, but at least there's plenty to talk about.
