GeekOut Heroes

Hype man makes people mad, 2025

Hey Geeks, this one we recorded a while back but we're slowly catching up. It's primarily about the GOTY Awards, but not. That's right we're talking about the only thing that truly mattered about the Awards show ... the game announcements. Just like the Super Bowl the only thing that matters is the ads. So sit down, relax and enjoy.

What's going on?

Hey Geeks, this episode is about what's been going on with us, the tech industry, whether it's a good time to get into PC gaming and a few reviews of a movie and games we've been playing.

A.I. You Gonna Get It

WE'RE LATE!!!! Don't worry, it's not yours. This episode we talk about what went down at Twitch Con. AI is being put into your fridge and washing machines. What the hell is everyone talking about with Ubisoft missing out the greatest AC game/plot? A new Pokeman game came out and it sucks ... just like the last one did. Turns out Microsoft's price increases has absolutely nothing to do with tariffs. Shocker, we know. We also give out thoughts on some Anime, a few games and some movies. Give it a listen. Who knows, you might like what you hear.

XBOX are you sure about that Pass

Hey Geeks, we're back and this episode we discuss the lunacy taking place in the UK with Digital ID. XBOX decided to forcibly shift everything to a subscription service while simultaneously killing their brand. Dying Light The Beast proves ray-tracing is holding back a lot of games. Destiny 2 is showing the cracks and fans are starting to notice. A writer with IGN suddenly noticed ... all PlayStation games are the same. EA is being sold and going private. Could this be the end? Press X to doubt. Additionally we give our thoughts on some games and Anime.

Gametober is coming

Hey Geeks, this week we talk about games that are coming in October and there are a lot. We also talk about Borderlands 4 and how it's so optimized it's unoptimized and stupid things that Randy Pitchford suggests. Also Microsoft has unexpectedly decided to double down and increase the prices of the Xbox ... again. It's a bold decision Cotton, let's see if it pans out for 'em. We also give our opinions of some games we've been playing as well as Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Infinity Castle. Spoiler, go see it.

We need to chat: RIP CK

We give our personal thoughts on a recent event.

Someone FINALLY gets it

Hey Geeks, this episode we talk about a developer from Battlefield finally gets it and things that games should be developed for low spec machines first and everything after that is a bonus. NVIDIA unwittingly exposed game developers with their Neural Rendering. Silksong came out and, unsurprisingly, developers were pissed. Surprisingly, they were Indie Devs. EA let go of a studio of developers only for them to be picked up by Wizards of the Coast. We also give our opinions on some games and movies.

ROBLOX You From Doing the Right Thing

Hey Geeks, this week we talked about ROBLOX literally stopping someone from reporting PDFiles to the police. This one's gonna get spicy. Bungie's CEO is no more. Gen Z gamers aren't gamers. Their mostly mobile players of properties. How will companies attract them to their games? Disney needs their male fans back and want to appeal to Gen Z. Yeah, okay. Good luck with that. We talk a little about Gamescom. And give our opinions on some Anime.

Do You Even Game, Bro?

Hey Geeks, it's been a minute. Sorry about that. Life moves in stupid unforeseen ways. But we're back. We're here to talk about censorship and bunch of other bullshit we had no intention of ever having to address, because we're geeks and we want to geekout about shit. Sometimes that just can't happen. So, sit down give us your attention and whether you agree with us or not, we appreciate you.

Another One Bites the Dust

Hey Geeks, this is a bit late ... only nearly a month. HAHAHAaaahh. Anyway, this episode we talk about EA closed another studio. We give our opinion on Elden Ring Nightreign. Randy Pitchford apologized? If you want to call it that. We give our thoughts on the possibility of $80 games that simply won't ever be worth that kind of money. Meanwhile the industry turned on Studio 33 and instead of giving them a pat on the back they decided to point the finger of blame. And a former BioWare dev decided to share a little bit about how the industry apparently sees their gamers as well as his own thoughts on those of us who are critical about the industry as it is now. Finally we also talk about some anime we've been watching and give our recommendations.
