2025/11/07

Here in 2025, a notion has begun to pick up steam in many communities: video games are dying. For some, video games and gaming itself is dead.In spite of the fact that Gaming is the highest grossing form of media consumption in the United States, it is often argued that the influx of normies into the space, lazy and formulaic development that retreads well-worn ground, ham-fisted politics, and piss-poor optimization has ruined games.In today's episode, we visit Reddit, one of the internet's

Before the Godfather, Gone with the Wind, or Don Quixote, there existed an even more renowned and influential piece of art. Though the film adaptation of Barnyard would not be released until 2006, the ideas and concepts were created in the 30s and helped move America through the Great Depression. Today, we take a look at the Pinnacle of gaming and dive into the 2006 GameCube port of Barnyard, the single best game we've had the honor of covering to date.

In 2022, we covered Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. While the consensus was ultimately a mixed bag, we generally liked it and thought much of what it had to offer was at least fresh and swung for the fences with ambition and Nintendo CharmThe Thousand-Year Door was released in 2004. 3 Years later, another Paper Mario game hit the shelves and proceeded to spit in the face of TTYD, the player, and gaming as a whole.Folks, meet "Super Paper Mario", the 2007 sequel to the beloved classic that does

We kick off season 3 with a hefty title: Death Stranding. In 2019, the title was the first release from the freshly-formed Kojima Productions. Controversy and confusion plagued the game even from before its release. Was it nothing other than a walking sim? Why was it so bloody weird? Why didn't Sam talk? What's up with the baby in a jar?These questions and more caused the game to be panned by most critics on launch. With the release of Death Stranding 2, however, many of these same critics

As we (slowly) approach episode 40 of DFG, we slow things down for a much more chilled out and deliberate experience: the 2021 rough like deck building game from solo developer Daniel Mullins (with help from a few others). Scrolling the steam page for this game provides a pretty clear image of what to expect: a cabin, cards, death, puzzles, and intrigue. As it turns out, there's a lot more bubbling under the surface of this experience than the developer makes known in the marketing. The game has

In 2018, they released their fifth game Detroit: Become Human to the PS4 console. It was a powerhouse in both the graphical and storytelling departments. Similar to previous Quantic Dream games, Director David Cage weaved a complex and twisting tale for players to experience. Reviews were very positive at the time and the game

Between the dishonored series and their wildly underrated immersive sim, Prey, Arkane has proven themselves a reliable and inventive studio. They're responsible for creating interesting worlds with layered characters, morality systems, and stellar gameplay that has high replayability years after release. So when the word was out they were making a similarly crafted game with a 60's style aesthetic, a jazzy soundtrack, and an emphasis on time manipulation, there was near instant excitement. As

Wolfenstein is a game series with a long and illustrious history pioneering a genre and spanning multiple decades. After many rehashes, Machine Games took a swing at developing what would become the Wolfenstein formula in the mid-2010's.

It is the follow-up to Paper Mario on the Nintendo 64 and is the second game in the Paper Mario franchise. One of us is a resident JRPG noob and it was supposed that perhaps this title would be an excellent introduction to the genre.
