This week’s episode features a report by Jonah Falcon from Toy Fair NY, raving about the co-op board gane version of Dark Souls. T.J. continues to rave about Nioh and Scott texted while the podcast was going on, but you’ll have to wait for an outtakes episode to hear that story. This week’s news includes: Square Enix may have accidentally announced NieR: Automata‘s PC release date Ed Boon would entertain the possibility of Street Fighter/Mortal Kombat crossover Dragon Quest Heroes I and II too big for Switch drive Let us know what you think.

This week’s episode has T.J. raving about the new hotness, the multi-cultural action-MOBA game For Honor, while Jonah complains about the lack of attention paid to Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2. Scott, meanwhile, is playing Pillars of Eternity in preparation for the sequel. This week’s news includes: Nintendo announces DLC Pass for Zelda: Breath of the Wild Bard’s Tale remastered trilogy will be finished, promises developer Sony axes PS Now for PS3, Vita Microsoft teases Project Scorpio in E3 2017 press event Let us know what you think.

This week, the gang ponder about the games that are coming in 2017, thinking about what they’re really interested in. The games range from Mass Effect: Andromeda to Injustice 2, among other titles. It’s a long rambling conversation, but at least it’s hope. The Gaming History focuses on the folly that was The Capcom 5. The news items this week include: Fallout 4 surpasses Skyrim to become Bethesda’s most successful game ever Rainbow Six Siege year two: free loot, better matchmaking, subversive operators E3 2017 will be open to the public The Question of the Week is “What game are you looking forward to in 2017?”

Back in 2007, Derrick and Jennifer Schommer, along with Don Dunn started the Gaming Podcast, with their unique sense of humor and take on the biz of video games (as well as starting a popular World of Warcraft guild.) The trio would move on, with Derrick starting his Everyday Drinkers podcast and Common Man Cocktails site. Jonah Falcon took over, and merged it with the Videogame Roundtable. In that time, we’ve had hosts including Jordan Lund, Paul S. Nowak, Dan Quick, Scott Dirk and most lately, the inestimable T.J. Denzer. We’ve also had guest hosts including Hilary Goldstein and the late Andrew Yoon. This episode celebrates the past 10 years, including an intro by Dan Quick and Paul S. Nowak joining this week’s episode, to discuss this news: ‘Father of Pac-Man‘ Masaya Nakamura dies at 91 Nintendo is gearing up for more mobile games, plans 2-3 per year $500 million awarded to ZeniMax in lawsuit over the Oculus Rift Asheron’s Call comes to a quiet end after 17 years Let us know how long you’ve followed the podcast for!

Gaming Podcast is back after the one week break, and finally truly weighs in on the announcement of the Switch – and aren’t impressed. What does impress the crew is the latest addition to the survival horror genre, Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, which takes the radical approach of being a survival horror game. They also ponder about how great a Zelda/Minecraft game would be. The next episode will be Gaming Podcast’s 10th anniversary, so longtime listeners are encouraged to write in.

Unfortunately, there’s no Donald Trump in this podcast – you’ll have to wait for an outtakes episode to listen to THAT discussion. However, there’s plenty of news culled from the past two weeks to enjoy. The news includes: Rumor: Beyond Good & Evil 2 Switch exclusive for first 12 months ‘Game Mode’ for Windows 10 will power Xbox One and Project Scorpio games too Square Enix strongly hints at Dragon Quest XI heading west Xbox boss says Microsoft will still “take risks” after Scalebound cancellation Let us know what you think.

The year has ended, as the last podcast of 2016 was recorded last week, and released today. There’s much discussion that was cut out and saved for a future outtakes episode. Regardless, there’s plenty of show to go around, and the sound quality is also far better than ever thanks to Jonah getting a professional headset and mic. This week’s news includes: Nintendo registers trademark that could point to a SNES Classic Edition Windows 10 may be getting a new “Game Mode” option The next game by That Dragon, Cancer‘s dev is not what you’d expect This week’s Question of the Week is “What game in 2017 might you buy that you normally wouldn’t?”

In an hour-long epilogue to last week’s landmark episode, Paul Nowak shows up for a guest appearance, and is very late. He discusses the previous week’s podcast notes – and talks about his new job and Dungeon Keeper. This is the last episode of 2016. See you in the new, hopefully less awful 2017.

It’s the landmark 450th episode of Gaming Podcast — and the end of a very disappointing year in videogames (among other things) for 2016. These aren’t your usual awards though – Jonah gives the “Best PS2 Game” award to The Last Guardian, for instance. It’s an extra long podcast at almost 2 hours, so enjoy all of the banter. There’s also news, of course, which includes: Torment: Tides of Numenera and Yooka-Laylee get release dates New Age of Empires 2 expansion out next week Final Fantasy‘s 30th anniversary plans to be revealed soon Let us know your favorite games of 2016!

For the second week in a row, the podcast has had some technical issues. This time the problem was less, but there are still present. Part of the reason is that the mic is subpar, the other is that the PC it’s being recorded on has a damaged fan. That said, this week’s episode (and the unreleased episode) were really good. The unpublished one will be issued at some future date when we all need a break (maybe over the Christmas week.) This week’s episode includes: Assassin’s Creed 3 goes free, murders Ubisoft servers in the process After Blizzard shutdown, legacy World of Warcraft server returns this month Halo 5: Forge custom game browser is launching on PC this week Report: Nintendo Switch will get GameCube Games Let us know what your favorite 2016 game has been.

The Nintendo Switch is looming on us all, and more rumors from trusted sources are popping up. We also reminisce about music from the Jet Grind Radio games and talk about the timing of Titanfall 2 sucked. This week’s news includes: 6 of the biggest rumors Nintendo Switch rumors EA pursuing development of an open-world game Dead Rising 4 removes campaign co-op Let us know if you’re going to buy a Nintendo Switch.

This week’s edition is a little different, in that there’s no set format, just a roundtable discussion of the past week’s events. TJ raves about Owl Boy, Jonah talks about N7 Day and the new Mass Effect: Andromeda revelations, and everyone on the podcast discusses how games have really been a disappointment this year and not much is coming. Oh, and a $99 3DS coming for Black Friday. Let us know what you think.

This week features some more Civilization VI talk, as well as discussion of a new side-scrolling RPG Gunmetal Arcadia Zero, which is available for a few days at a “pay whatever you want” price; basically, it’s a science fiction Zelda II. This week’s news includes: Star Wars Battlefront 2 coming Fall 2017, EA suggests Journey and Flower studio thatgamecompany teases its next title New teaser sets Mass Effect: Andromeda 600 years after the last game This week’s Question of the Week is for the Civ 6 players out there, “Which civ is your favorite in Civ 6?”

The new episode was recorded last Wednesday but only posted now due to server issues. In this edition, Jonah, T.J., and Scott all geek out about Civilization VI. They also weigh in fully about the newly revealed Nintendo Switch, and speculate on whether it’s going to be a purchase. (Short answer: depends on how much it costs.) This week’s news items include: Bethesda says “no more” to advance game reviews Nintendo pins financial hopes on selling 2 million Switch consoles at launch Microsoft announces a VR headset for $299 This week’s Question of the Week: “Are you ready for VR?”

So, this episode covers that fact that Nintendo is about to announce their next device, which they did earlier today: the Nintendo NX is now called the Nintendo Switch. The official Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer was also unveiled today too, and the multiplayer aspect is discussed. Jonah advises TJ and Scott to try The Stanley Parable as well. This week’s news includes: Dishonored dev’s The Crossing, put on hold in 2009, gets a new trademark filing Red Dead Redemption 2 announced for Xbox One and PS4, but not PC Voice actors threaten strike against EA, Activision, and nine other companies Grand Theft Auto 5‘s exploding Note 7 mod video yanked from YouTube by Samsung All this and two Questions of the Week!
