Not our standard structure of things, but we spent a lot of time talking PC gaming and computer builds. With Microsoft having bits of kneejerk reactions to improve Xbox One sales, we ranted about what we knew about the Xbox One last year. We also ranted about insensible gaming budgets, and how new tech makes game development even more expensive..

We could not remember the last time we recorded a GameKast without checking, but it felt like forever. Former TGA staff member Aaron joined us for part of this episode, and it was awesome. So, we brought forth our usual topics (games we played, news, random stuff), talked about Heroes of the Storm’s place in MOBA games, and someone got far too distracted on the job…

Bronson is a Denver Broncos fan, and in the aftermath of the Super Bowl, he had to give his thoughts on what is going to happen next. Apple has sold record numbers of iPhones and iPads (again), and has become one of the brands of the generation. We actually got a little more optimistic about the Wii U’s future; it has some games to get hyped about. The Vita also has a few games to get hyped about, but being extremely under the radar, we wondered if it will be like the Dreamcast and GameCube: well-loved systems that just didn’t get the sales. We also answered questions regarding what system felt most “next-gen” for us, as well as best console values we have experienced.

Well, we managed to deliver four hours of GameKast experience for this colossal episode. Bronson’s Seattle friend Emily joined us. Bronson and Emily recapped some of their experiences in previous PAX Prime conventions. We discussed an efficient method of combating piracy, dived into some useless gaming zodiacs, talked again about Microsoft’s Youtube bribes and Nintendo’s financial issues, and we name some of the best JRPG soundtracks we have ever heard.

Well, we forgot to post this episode, so it is now just over a week old at time of this posting. We discussed more about Zelda: Wind Waker HD, and gave our most anticipated games of the year (at the time).

It is the holiday season, but we were not exactly in the best cheerful state. With a Sunday Night Football game performance irritating one person and the YouTube controversy of a bot wrongly removing videos, we had some recent annoyances. Thankfully, some good things came in, including a somewhat lengthy list of games for those who have not adopted PS4s or Xbox Ones, and some new interesting indie titles.

We originally were recording this episode of the GameKast to mock this year’s Spike TV Video Game Awards, thinking that it will be another glorified light show and party festival. Well, the first thing is that it was called VGX this year. The second thing was that it rivals the Xbox One reveal event as one of the worst gaming shows we have witnessed this year. How bad was it? Well, we stuck around for all three hours, and recorded our reactions and thoughts.

On the day we recorded this episode, it was the night before the PlayStation 4 was to be launched. Discussing the next-gen features, a debate was started as to whether the new gaming consoles will be able to multitask heavily without compromising performance several years down the road. A significant part of this episode was our reflection of our experiences with the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii over the past eight years. Turned out, we had a massive amount to say.

Bronson was playing an online Madden football match while we recorded in the first half-hour, and had some difficulty trying to talk for more than five minutes without skewing back into what was on the television screen. So, we talked about the games we have been playing, some news (what little there is), and some random bits found on the Internet.
