GEA - SAG Episode 520: Not E3 Recap Part 3

Not E3 season concludes with the Sunsoft is Back 5, LRG3, and Nintendo Direct!

Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, Dan and Kris conclude their coverage of the summer games extravaganza they lovingly refer to as Not E3! This time around, Nintendo hit it big with their June Direct, including a number of big surprises like a new Mario & Luigi, Zelda starring Zelda, and Metroid Prime 4. Atooi also farted out a rather unimpressive Hatch Tales deepdive, Limited Run got weird with this year’s LRG3, and Sunsoft made a 6 minute presentation about 3 games. Which was certainly a choice.
At the top of the show, Dan still doesn’t have news about his ongoing health issues, but he did manage to be stressed about it all week! So instead of playing games, he talked about the trials and tribulations of being a toy collector. Meanwhile, Kris celebrated his birthday week with some delicious food, Game Boy Mega Man games, and the glory that is Shovel Knight Dig. .
Finally, in Week Old News, FromSoftware decides NOT to fire a bunch of people, a bunch of long thought lost games resurface for various platforms, someone has decided to port Doom II to Super NES, and more. Enjoy!

GEA - SAG 519: Not-E3 Wrap Up Week 2

Not E3 season continues with the Xbox Showcase, Yacht Club Presents, and more!

Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, Dan and Kris continue their coverage of the summer games extravaganza they lovingly refer to as Not E3! This time around, they have a crazy number of showcases to break down, including the Future of Play Direct, Women Led Games Show, Ubisoft Forward, and honestly way too many more. So their summaries of many were cut a bit short because there’s just now ay to cover THAT many games. They did, however, dedicate the appropriate amount of time to the biggest show of the week, the Xbox Games Showcase. After Sony’s lackluster showing earlier this month, was Microsoft able to make the best of their time in the spotlight? Just how manly is Joanna Dark’s jawline? (Hint: the internet is full of goons). What other amazing games will we all be looking forward to? Let’s find out! At the top of the show, Dan gives us another update on his ongoing health issues, including numerous bouts of frustration with an inability to get actual answers. Meanwhile, Kris spent the week frustrated and tired. So good times were had all around! Oh, and then there’s this dreadful song that his son has been listening to, and now you have to as well. Finally, in Week Old News, the first North American Nintendo commercial may have been unearthed, the PC gaming community continues to be as impressive as they are fast, a Kickstarter for a new NWC cartridge gets unsurprisingly shut down, a woman is arrested for smuggling an absurd number of Switch games in her bra, and more. Enjoy!

It’s Not E3 season! Time to discuss all the games that were announced this week.

Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, Dan and Kris are unfortunately not joined by Dean for th Cartoon Express because of dogs. (No really, there were dogs involved). But fortunately, there’s a metric ton of new game news to talk about! That's right, it’s officially Not E3 season, and this week was host to a crazy amount of new game announcements that warrant discussion. How did Geoff Keighley’s soulless Summer Game Fest do? How did we not know about the annual Homebrew showcase? Why in the world would Kris be excited about the Power Rangers? Listen on to find out!
At the top of the show, Dan updates everyone on his health situation, and what his impending diagnosis could mean for him, while Kris talks about the joys of taking his daughter to her first baseball game. There's also a lot of talk about Star Wars and Doctor Who, because Dan and Kris are nerds.
Finally, in Week Old News, a bunch of stolen Playdates find their way home in unusual fashion, Google is responsible for a bunch ofNintendo leaks, Hatch Tales is delayed AGAIN, and Twitter continues to be a foul place full of grifters trying to profit off anger and hate. Gross. Enjoy!

GEA - DC's Amazing Movie Time - The Frighteners

Episode Notes

Michael J. Fox is here to bust psycho ghosts in this special effect driven film directed by Peter Jackson. We couldn't find any likeable characters but did we like the movie?

GEA - SAG Episode 517: What Games Came Out in May 1984, 1994, 2004, and 2014?

It’s time for the May 10-20-30-40? Will there finally be some good games?

Show Notes

On this week’s podcast, Dan and Kris tackle the May 10 20 30 40, where they look back at notable game releases from 10, 20, 30, and 40 years ago this month. But these last few entries haven’t been all that spectacular overall. Will this month be any different? Will the PS2 or Intellivision save the day, or will a baby of mundane releases suck all the fun out of things yet again? We’ll find out!
At the top of the show, Dan gets hit with a sudden bout of hypochondria, but still has time to play some rounds of Balatro. Meanwhile, Kris had a Memorial Day party and finally got to play a proper local 6-player match of Shredder’s Revenge, plus some classic Wii Sports and X-Men arcade. He also gives his less than stellar impressions of Lunar Lander Beyond.
Finally, in Week Old News, it’s Not-E3 season, and Sony andMArvelout Entertainment kicked things off with some… well they certainly were game showcases. State of Play lacked farming simulations because Marvelous had them all, Astro makes a fantastic-looking comeback, and Silent Hill 2 looks kind of off. Also, more gross gamer discourse online, people are modding CRTs, Legend of Zelda LEGOs are officially a thing, and a whole lot more! Enjoy!
