While Episode 290 was recorded as per usual, I could not edit it this week. But fear not, your regularly scheduled programming will be posted over the weekend! As a consolation prize we do have something for you: a reading of perhaps the MOST important supreme court decision about video games! This was the case decided in 2011 that started out with Schwarzenegger and ended with Brown, challenged by the EMA. It decided that Video Games should be given the same protections that any book or movie was given at the time. While MisterNiceGuy likes to say it on the show, its nice to know that it is also the official stance of the Legal system of the United States: Video Games Are Art. This is just a reading of the opinion itself, but there was also a concurrence, as well as two dissents, which we hope to share with you soon as well. Have a wonderful week!
Episode 289 where we talk about Launch Parties done right, Full Void, a Retro-Future Space Sim, what we are thankful for, why Epic is STILL not your friend, and more!
Episode 288 is a slightly shorter episode, but still PACKED with news; we talk Steamdeck OLED, Game Awards, Star Wars Battlefront II’s Unique contribution to videogame history, and more!
Episode 286 where we talk about the Impact an individual may have on a franchise , the 1981 Atari World Championships, Nintendo’s New tournament requirements (its bad news), Not Quite Heorscape, and Vernal Edge!
Thanks and shout out to Swords and Starships. Mack has been a guest on their show before, and they kindly mentioned us in their October 27th episode, thanks for the love!
Episode 285 where we talk about a combat free adventure game, the newest city simulator, Psycho Mantis, cow levels, and all with Special Guest Metzgirl! (You may recall her previous appearances in episodes 263, and 257)
Hello Nerds, MrNiceGuy is traveling for work this week, so no proper episode, but I didnt want you to have NOTHING in your feed, so please accept this: a taste of what is in the works, and a call for you to let us know where you might like to see us do live shows! (We can’t promise anything, of course, but we would like to try and plan for places where we know you might be able to make it.)
Episode 283 where we talk New Steam Products, Prison City, a new Analogue Pocket, KOTOR2 Class Action, and a Sound Test (which is closer to the end than usual)!
Editor’s Note: Vacation and a flood really threw off our schedule, so this is coming to you late, but we will be back on our usual schedule next week.
