Ep. 208: Vacation In Games! Best Beach and Dungeons...

GlitchCube ·

2024/09/23

Chris beat Astro Bot and we speculate on whats next for that franchise. Maybe a Kingdom Hearts inspired Sony-verse? And Dungeons Of Hinterburg asks the question of what wouldn't you do on a vacation. Magical portals open so why not plan a trip to fight monsters to decompress from your day to day life. But what beaches in games would you actually want to visit for a weekend getaway?------------------ Hosts: Christian & Chris Don't forget to leave us a cheeky review and we will read them on the

Ep. 207: Astro Bot! The Nostalgia Generator!

GlitchCube ·

2024/09/16

Hello all! Before we get into Astro Bot Christian has a little chip on his shoulder that needed discussion. It is becoming much more common in games and media now but too many titles have little to no pay off at the end. You finish a story and instead of enjoying a twist, or witnessing a huge epic event, or just a good payoff the ending is spoiled half way through and nothing exciting happens. Its especially annoying with games you spend 40+ hours in. But anyway...Astro Bot is amazing and it is just

Ep. 206: Adding Appeal To "Boring" Jobs! Archeology!

GlitchCube ·

2024/09/09

Hey there! Throughout media certain jobs have been made to look more appealing then they actually are. There is more drama and gun fights thrown in to add to the mystery of what the job actually entails. Whether is Indiana Jones surviving a nuclear blast in a fridge, or fighting a giant Trex in a cave like Tomb Raider the job has a lot of added flourish. But is this a bad thing? Is this just escapism at its finest. And how many people have been introduced to these jobs through media and have made it

Ep. 205: inZOI Life In A Simulation

GlitchCube ·

2024/09/02

We open hot this episode with some super great tech issues with Game Pass. But dive head first into the world of simulation games with inZOI. If you have not seen this game it looks insane! The character creator alone is so realistic its slightly uncomfortable. While Christian was never one to get into these types of games, Chris helps him better understand the appeal of these fictional worlds. ------------------ Hosts: Christian & Chris Don't forget to leave us a cheeky review and we will

Coop is coming back in a hard way for us here at GlitchCube. Chris who is not a Avatar fan boy has been playing the game with a buddy, and only playing it coop and enjoying the game itself. With that there is also Remnant 2 to explore. While Christian continues down his path of long RPGs with Tales Of Arise next. So much to play and so little time. ------------------ Hosts: Christian & Chris Don't forget to leave us a cheeky review and we will read them on the show. Tell your friends that they

Hello again! We took a week off last week for good reason! Our Glitch family has grown. We welcome Chris's new babies into the world! With such a large life event we somehow managed to still find time for games. Christian finished Eiyuden Chronicles, a fun game but slightly lacking in something. And Chris finished up Pikmin 4, a solid gaming experience. Fun puzzles and great visuals. So sit back, relax and enjoy some thoughts on these games, plus some shows too!------------------ Hosts: Christian

2024/08/12

From the IBS Podcast! We have a series of fun episodes planned out for you all. We are going to be playing the Quiet Year. It's a table top world making game. Perfect for world building and we allow our imagination to run wild here. Typically you start with a blank slate and build out the world from there. But we decided to build a world in the land of Candy Land! Think epic Game Of Thrones meets cotton candy woods and chocolate swamps. ------------------ Hosts: Christian & Chris Don't forget

2024/08/05

Hey everyone! We are back with a little update episode here. We have been combing through our backlog of retro games all the while trying to keep up with the newer titles as well. We dive deep into Eiyuden Chronicles, a great love letter to the Suikoden games. But is it sticking too close to the source material? Is it missing some of the quality of life tropes that we have come to expect from modern RPGs. Also, Pikimin is back in a big way! The perfect pick up and play game for

Ep. 200: Game Of The Year Contenders...So Far!

GlitchCube ·

2024/07/29

With the flood of great games released so far this year and looking at the list of whats to come we thought it would be a good idea to look at the game of the year contenders so far. So, at least we forget about all of them. Even though we have split the year the list is as strong and as long as previous years already. And there is truly something for everyone. Games like Balatro, Prince Of Persia: The Lost Crown, Unicorn Overlord, 1000xResist, Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth and so much

Ep. 199: N64 Draft! The Nostalgia Maker!

GlitchCube ·

2024/07/22

This week we dive back into memory lane and do a little draft pick of our top 4 N64 games. And some of these picks will definitely surprise you. Looking back at this console it really was made to be enjoyed with others. So many of their biggest games were not single player experiences. Instead they brought families together while simultaneously ripping them apart. Whether its arguing over the rumble pack or getting mad at the rng of Mario Party it was a crazy fun time!------------------ Hosts:

2024/07/15

Atlus games has continued to surprise us. We have been on an Atlus kick lately and each one of their games is so different from the last but there are a couple things that persist through out all of them.And that is that they are innovative with captivating stories that have memorable characters with true life issues that are very relatable for the player. And we really dive into the time traveling, Game Of Thrones styled world of Radiant Historia. We both agree that this is the best version of time

2024/07/08

We have a special episode here for you all. This week we are going to going over the large library of the PS1 and picking our top four games. But instead of just picking them together we wanted to try something different and do a draft style pick of our top games. The way this is going too work is we each take turns picking a game and we cannot pick games that each other have picked. So that way we will have 8 unique picks. The picks will really surprise you these are definitely not the top rated

There is a lot to talk about this week. And it has been a great time to really hit that back log. So, many titles that we missed out on over the years and finally are getting to. Like Radiant Historia, Tomb Raider and Evergrace. And one game that Christian said he probably would not play and is completely shocked by, Persona 3 Reload! Also, there is a little teaser at the end of what is to come in the near future so be sure to stick around till the end to hear about that. -------- Follow the

2024/06/24

There were a lot of games announced recently between the Summer Games Fest and the last Nintendo Direct. Theres quite a few that were just a little weird and quite shocking, like Lego Horizon. But we both agree that the last Nintendo Direct was filled with so many great games to look forward to. Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom, Mario & Luigi: Brothership, Metroid Prime 4, DragonQuest remakes...the list goes on truly! With the idea of the Nintendo Switch getting close to its end it really may be going

With Paper Mario 100 Year Door getting a remaster we have started playing even more games in the Mario RPG genre, like Mario + Luigi Superstar Saga. The rpg Mario games are something special. They show that you can have memorable characters and similar feelings when playing games from completely different genres. Then there were some surprising games that we have recently played as well. Like Pokemon Conquest, a cute Pokemon tactics game that will take 100's of hours to complete as you conquer

For everyone that knows, we are huge fans of spooky games and movies. So it just makes sense that even in summer we are looking for a good thrill. Growing up we both have experience with the Resident Evil franchise, butt for some reason neither of us have actually played the remakes of RE2 or RE3. And man the hype was real! Theses are amazing games, even with a good amount of the game getting cut in RE3. I mean who isn't terrified of being chased constantly and seriously we hate the Lickers! Have

Voice control has become a common place item in our day to day lives. With things like Alexa and Siri we are using our voice to turn on lights, search the internet, send messages and find out what song that just was. But when it comes to games voice controls have always been tricky if not just down right broken. But thats not without trying. For a small while there voice controlled games were coming out and testing the boundaries of this technology. But it was quickly realized that this may not

Ep.189: Cultural Representation In Games!

2024/05/13

For years we only had a few viewpoints in the world of gaming when it came to story telling. Year after year we were shown the same viewpoint of WWII through ever evolving graphics. But now we are starting to get new story tellers in games and are finally able to see the world through different lenses. Game like T'challa are giving us a slice of life from New Caledonia, or Saviorless showing us the struggles of game development in Cuba. Or now Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is introducing us to rich lore
