    228: Papers, Please Mar 07, 2019
    Show notes

    We begin Desperation Month with a very unusual sim game. You are a checkpoint worker in a fictional communist country, forced to decide the fates of immigrants as the rules change every day. It's a bleak and stressful game that forces you to contort yourself into monstrous shapes, tugging at you with incentives and survival. It's unique and powerful, even if it isn't strictly fun.

    The Road to Unfilmable: Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem Mar 01, 2019
    Show notes

    Our preview series continues with another game whose Lovecraft associations are looser, but undeniable. Eternal Darkness is an inventive, but flawed, game. But you can't argue that it doesn't make an impression.

    We will have more details about Unfilmable soon!

    Dispatch: Violence Feb 28, 2019
    Show notes

    Gary and Kole take your questions, and chat about Video Game Violence before reading your thoughts on SMB2, Pyre, and Bioshock Infinite.

    The Road to Unfilmable: Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth Feb 26, 2019
    Show notes

    You all have been very generous, and we recently passed a Patreon milestone goal for a new show. That show is called "Unfilmable", and in it Gary and Kole will examine adaptations of H.P. Lovecraft's work and ideas. We've recorded several episodes about Lovecraft-related or -inspired works, so we're re-presenting them to give you an idea of what the show will be like.

    This first episode hearkens back to the earliest days of our show, when we covered the Xbox game "Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth."

    Every now and then between now and the launch, we'll drop another of these preview episodes.

    227 Preview: Bioshock Infinite Feb 21, 2019
    Show notes

    We don't like Bioshock Infinite. The full episode is four hours of us trying our best to point out the many ways it falls short as a game, and as a conveyor of ideas. This is a preview of that full episode, which you can get by backing us on Patreon.

    226: Pyre Feb 14, 2019
    Show notes

    SuperGiant is a studio we really love. We've covered both Bastion and Transistor on this show, so when William Rouse executive-produced an episode about Pyre it was a wonderful chance to complete the SuperGiant collection. And while there is plenty to love about Pyre's world, visual design, and music, we felt that the fantasy basketball came up a little short. Listen in to learn the specifics on why we felt the way we did, and give the game a shot to see if it lands the same for you.

    Adaptation Decay Preview: Pac-Man Fever Feb 12, 2019
    Show notes

    This is our final "preview" episode of Adaptation Decay, our premium show about the ways that games are adapted to other media. We love this episode about the Buckner and Garcia album "Pac Man Fever" and we think you will, too. It demonstrates that Adaptation Decay isn't just a show about bad movies, but casts a wider net.

    225: Super Mario Bros. 2 Feb 07, 2019
    Show notes

    Super Mario Bros. 2 is unfairly ignored, either because of its provenance or because it's not a trailblazer like its predecessor, or as finely tuned as its successor. But it deserves credit for being ambitious, weird, and serving as the springboard for a lot of the great things we love about Mario games. So come along and listen to our case for why this might be the best of the NES Mario games.

    Dispatch: Difficulty Jan 31, 2019
    Show notes

    Gary and Kole answer your questions, talk about difficulty in games, and then read your responses to River City Ransom, Owlboy and FFX.

    224: Final Fantasy X (Part 2) Jan 24, 2019
    Show notes

    Matthew sticks around to talk about the remainder of Final Fantasy X, which includes some fantastic boss fights, neat imagery, and questionable story beats. We also touch briefly on the absurd optional content this game has to offer to the most patient among us.
