“Fun” & Games Podcast 🔜 PAX East

9. Scott Pilgrim EX - 2 hrs 52 min

If you love beat 'em ups & Scott Pilgrim this is an easy recommend. Fun new story by Bryan Lee O'Malley. Delightful characters. Incredible OST by Anamanaguchi. Gameplay is tight &fun. Pixel art & world design look like its jumping right out of the comic/anime.

I’m loving Scott Pilgrim EX. So much love for the comics, tv show and movie as well as just video games and movies in general. So much fun. Also @anamanaguchi.bsky.social absolutely killed it with the soundtrack.

Podcasting tonight. What could it be about? 🤔

Fire Pomeranian looks amazing, and that Gecko has some sweet underdog Greninja energy about it

But if you give me a bird starter, I will pick the bird starter.

One day, there will be a new Pokémon Pinball announced.

One day.

My real time reaction to Invisagirl.

“Oh hey she’s hot!”

“Hey why are you so mean!?”

“Oh no I like it. I’m in trouble”

Episode 2 down! The game is excellent. Also if you didn’t fist bump Royd I don’t trust you.

I just finished episode one of Dispatch. Y’all I am so IN.

Been playing Cloudpunk. Only a few hours in but vibes alone are A+.

Shout out to @lilbitsofhistory.bsky.social for letting me know about it!

As someone who worked in Sab in QA I might be biased but this game - and increasingly - its message deserves renewed attention

8. The Saboteur - 10 hrs 14 min

Most "fuck yeah dudes rock" game I've played & it rules. Dialogue was straight out of a cheesy action movie & was perfect. The gameplay was tight. Story & setting kept me hooked. Not sure whether it was the right timing or quality or both but I loved my time with it.

No shade but y’all realize this is just Pokémon HitClips right?

New console retrospective! We’re chatting with @jacob.bsky.social about the Wii U. Go listen!

We are joined by @jacob.bsky.social for a retrospective on the Wii U. The Gamepad provided unique & fun experiences. Many series got their start here, or have a unique entry that lives exclusively on it. Lowest selling console, perhaps, but not least loved.

Hubert tells of a tragedy at the Bone Pit Mine and lo and behold, there is a dragon that killed everyone and destroyed the whole operation. But that’s not all! A noble named Nuncio comes to us with claims of a criminal that he is hunting and needs our help!
