Show notes

Breakdown:

We have guest Harold Price on for the first time in a while, and don’t worry, he brought the awkward singing! Also, Evan Wall is back! WHAT?!
We talk about a ton of awesome video games, including but not limited to: Ori and the Blind Forest, Kingdom Hearts 2 FM HD, DmC Devil May Cry, Battlefield Hardline, Pokemon Shuffle, Monster Hunter 4!
We have a bunch of news. We get through interesting perspectives on new PS4 re-releases possibly announced this week, as well as the fascinating Kojima news and how we interpreted it.
We also spend plenty of time talking about Nintendo’s DeNA partnership and the announcement of the “NX”.
We get to YOUR emails! We had to skip the voicemail this week, but we had some very interesting “video game” and “indie” centric questions.
That’s the show, thanks so much for listening!

IP214: Game of Triangles Feb 14, 2015

Show notes

Breakdown:

A laid back show this week with the IP team, Scott’s sick, Nabeshin’s tired, and Alex’s endless optimism is gross.
We talk about some video games! We open things up by reflecting on the Persona 5 trailer, it was amazing.
We also talk about Life is Strange, Smash Bros, amiibo, Fantasy Life, World of Warcraft, Amalur, and Dying Light.
In news we talk about Marty Oums, discuss SOE, or what used to be it, and mention again: Persona 5 looks great.
Since there were no emails (again!) we go right to TV Talk and boy was that football thing interesting.
That’s the show, sorry it was so late!

IP211: I'm Really Feeling It! Jan 21, 2015

Show notes

Breakdown:

This week, Alex, Tony, Scott and Nabeshin regale you with their holiday breaks of video games.
We reflect on Game of the Year 2014, and the emotional bloodbath that ensued. We close up some loose ends and talk about the game we decided to be our Game of the Year!
In video game land, we have more to talk about than we can muster. Blockade 3D, Shovel Knight, Unturned, World of Warcraft, Bayonetta (1 & 2!), Metal Gear, Kingdom Hearts, a ton on Dragon Age Inquisition, and many, many more.
News we have some catching up to do, including the best selling games of 2014 and PSN/XBL outages from before.
We also discuss the Nintendo Direct, buying amiibos, regretting everything, and the New 3DS XL.
We also discuss some Xbox One price cuts, Rock Band DLC, and Kinda Funny Games.
Nabeshin prepared some 2015 questions for us, and we sit back, theorize, and talk some trash.
That’s the show, thanks so much for listening, and happy new year!
