GeekOut Heroes

I don't even know who you are

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about Valve/Steam is a continual threat to the gaming industry, but the biggest friend to gamers. We talk about a BioWare dev who decided gamers were mean and need to stop. We also talk a little about the failure of Avowed and how every lesson that could be learned from it will absolutely be ignored. Additionally we talk about some Anime we've been enjoying, a prequal for a beloved TV show that recently finished up, and a game whose franchise should just stop. 

Getting political ... for about 15 minutes

Hey Geeks, this week is a rarity. We talk about politics. Now, now, nothing extremely serious. Just the fact that USAID gave money to publications to bat down Gamergate 2.0. That's right, the government thought they'd throw their hat into the arena of gaming affairs. As you can guess their understanding is about as extensive as Kotaku's so you can see where this is going. Anyway we also talk about a few games. Give our personal takes on Civilization VII. Catch up on some issues that cropped up involving Assassin's Creed Shadows. We even discuss some movies we're genuinely excited for. If you don't wanna hear out takes on the political nonsense, just skip ahead to 15:35 and you should be golden.

Microsoft Showed Some Stuff

Hey Geeks, this week we talked a little more about CES; some new cases that looked promising, a Sex Android that didn't, and what the newest GPUs mean for the gaming industry moving forward. A reporter at Video Games Chronicle believes games aren't expensive enough for ... gamers. Then we talk about the Developer Direct from Microsoft. We also talk about the Rippaverse. And finally, we give our thoughts on some movies and MiSide.

Avowed Seppuku

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about David Jaffe spouting off some nonsense. Obsidian's Art Direct decided he doesn't like money anymore and neither should Microsoft. Black Myth: Wukong got nominated for GOTY, but it doesn't seem like it has much of a chance of getting it from what we can see. We also talk about a couple of games we've been playing a make a few recommendations of what to spend your hard earned cash on this holiday season.

We're Living the Memes

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about journalist learning to STFU. Dragon Age: The Veilguard isn't doing well and why these games truly fail. Game awards from every publication proves there is a bias and even The Game Awards had to make exceptions to add certain games. Square Enix and WB have lost money this year. The Powell Group decided to make a new friend. The ADL decided to go out of their way to defame Steam. Indian Jones and the Great Circle finally showed off some gameplay. Additionally we give our thoughts on TMNT: Splintered Fate, Mech Warrior 5: Clans, and a few more things.

Spoopy do as Spoopy does

Hey Geeks! This week we chat about BioWare. CD Projekt Red getting caught with their proverbial pants down with their DEI initiative. Ubisoft is in trouble but it's starting to seem intentional. Has DC turned the ship around? Is Silent Hill 2 Remake worth a replay for those who loved the original and is it worth a playthrough for first timers? Is Until Dawn Remake really a failure? Is The Casting of Frank Stone worth anyone's time and money? How was The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom? And what did we think of The Wild Robot?
