GeekOut Heroes

The heroes party recommends entertainment that must be played loudly and often in underwear

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about what games we recommend from 2022 and ask the question, will we get hardware refreshes this generation? We also give our thoughts on Hogwarts Legacy and give recommendations for some anime.

Villagers Rejoice as Wizards from Another Coast Give Up to Start Their Lives of Penance

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about WotC giving up on the OGL changes. Could new fans be to blame for why our beloved franchises are failing. The DCEU sounds terrible. Hogwarts Legacy boycott failed. Netflix looses subscribers and does an about face on blocking password sharers. And a lot of BS in between.

Wizards from Another Coast Give Up their Good Works While Limiting Running for One Person’s Complaint.

Hey Geeks, we're back for the new year with even more BS about the crap we love. This week we talk about business setting speed records for who can lose money and customers fastest. Ubisoft cancelled seven unannounced games and leadership give employees the preverbal wheel. Diablo IV's opening cinematic dropped and it looks good, but the game wreaks of Games as a Service. Microsoft is one of a number of companies having to let go of thousands of employees and a former 343 employees claims Halo sucks because of bad management and not bad development. Bungie is getting ready for Lightfall by changing and nerfing a lot of the things that players were having fun with to the point that this feels like starting over is some ways. And finally, Avartar 2: The Way of Water is the prettiest dumb movie we've ever seen.

After Retiring the Adventurers Started a Podcast in Another World to Save Lives

Hey Geeks!

After a long break we're back to talk about the new Disney CEO which is the same as the old Disney CEO. Avatar: The Way of Water was super expensive to make. CGI in movies has gone downhill and so have AAA games. We give our take on why that may be. One of us wants Ski-bi dibby dib yo da dub dub Yo da dub dub (his) pronouns to be scat (I hated typing that). We talk about Anime we enjoy and one show we're giving up on. We also give our thoughts on some shows we're catching up with and a recent Netflix original which dropped, Wednesday (the show, not that day).

Pyroclastic Proof

Hey Geeks, this one we complain and bitch a lot. Join us as we discuss how companies could simply avoid failing by listening to their customers. We talk about the fallout of what should have been successful ventures. We talk about out our excitement for Deadpool 3. Current PC tech is getting out of hand so what do we recommend for someone looking to make a build. Additionally, we share our thoughts on some movies and a few television series.

You have money, but they don’t want it.

Hey Geeks, we're slowly getting caught back up. Have one more cast the drop this week. This one we chat about Jennifer Lawrence not understanding how pay-grades work. We're all tired of remakes. We're tired of a failing Hollywood consumed with agenda instead of storytelling. The Rings of Power does indeed have issues. Gaming companies are making strange choices that seem anti-consumer. Sony complained about Xbox exclusivity. Should 343 still being making Halo games? Saints Row releases buggy and bad. Hogwarts Legacy is apparently delayed and racist. Ubisoft seems pretty sure of themselves announcing six AC games in one go. And much more.

Anime-niacs

Hey Geeks, sorry for the long break. This was recorded about four weeks ago and we talked about what's been shaking in geek culture. Are companies failing because they're woke or is there something more as well? Are the companies in control of our entertainment making good choices? Sony has concerns over the Activision acquisition, but are they valid? Does GTA VI need to be better than GTA V? We give our opinions on Forza Horizon 5: Hot Wheels, Trek to Yomi, and Two Point Hospital and Stray. We also give our input on The Orville Season 3, a bunch of Anime, and the film Bullet Train.

Grand Woke Avatar?

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about Microsoft trying to play down Activision's role in the gaming industry. Activision's Raven Studios gets caught plagiarizing design. We've heard some possibly disturbing news about GTA 6's humor. Ubisoft has lost a large chunk of their workforce because they chose to not act and now several games are delayed. Knights of the Old Republic remake has been delayed indefinitely. GameStop gets a lesson in No F*king Thanks. It's looking more and more likely that Square Enix wants to sell themselves. Hollywood continues to demonstrate why they just need to shut the hell up. We also give our thoughts on the film Prey and show Paper Girls.

Welcome to the Fandom

Hey Geeks, as more and more fans find themselves on the other side of the line watching what they love get misused and damaged we decided we'd talk about the companies in control of the franchises fans love and how these corporations don't care about the properties they own or the fandom that actually follows them. Additionally, talk a little about Comic Con announcements, Digital Extreme announced Soulframe, Ubisoft cancelled 4 games and wants $70 for Skull and Bones, and The Last of Us Remake is also looking to get $70. We also give our thoughts on Stray, Power Washer Simulator, The Last Ronin, The Terminal List and some Anime.

Casters of Muppets

Hey Geeks, we're back from a long break but we've got a fun one for you. This week we talk about companies inability to understand or even accept criticism from fans. At what point should fans just stop caring and supporting franchises from companies that hate them? Diablo Immortal is an epic disaster, but Blizzard doesn't care. Why? The answer may surprise you ... it's money. The PS5 UI and UX are awful. The New PlayStation Plus has rolled out. Are the other two tiers worth the extra cost? Ubisoft decided preserving a library isn't important. EA forgot they actually make single player games still. We also give our thoughts on Top Gun Maverick, Minions: The Rise of Gru, Stranger Things Season 4, and some Anime.
