What a way to start off the year, a whole bunch of basically nothing in January and then bam a whole bunch of stuff in February. Between the load of games that are challenging us here at the Hunting Pixels crew to forget our backlog and a load of announcements for coming showcases, we got news that Microsoft was planning on taking Xbox games multi-platform. This was potentially huge news and so Dylan and I sat down to talk about it for just a little bit a discuss what we think this potentially m...

Games are a unique medium in that the control is given to the observer. Within this structure, systems and mechanics must be built in order to offer control to the player. As such games must constantly innovate or introduce outright new systems and mechanics at a regular pace. That also sometimes means that good mechanics get left behind. That's what we want to discuss with the topic. What mechanics of old should have stuck around or should, in the modern age, make a come back. Media Discussed: ...

As we all should know by now, June is the US delegated Pride Month and as such we should talk about it. That's right, our topic of the show isn't going to be related to video games.... I am or course kidding. No we want to talk about video games and politics of course and how they intertwine in the realm of LGBTQ+ people. Representation matters, so let's talk about it.

The year, until relatively recently, has been a little light on the massive AAA releases that everyone clamors for and has mostly been held down by a ton of little indie titles. While there were some big titles sprinkled through the first 5 months of the year, They have been few and far in between. That got us thinking, with AAA games having their time to shine, when do Indie games really get any? There seems to always be heaps of praise on games like Resident Evil 4 Remake and The Legend Of Zel...

Similar to movies, Video Games often get blasted into the mainstream and achieve massive success. Other times they enter with a whimper and die out before anyone has had a chance to know what they're about. There is, however, a third, and often compelling, option. Some games come out with little fan fare and eventually grow a following. This can be seen in the Dark Souls series, many of the Suda51 creations, and Rockstar's Table Tennis. So what makes these games so beloved by those that play the...
