In the spirit of debauchery and just down right fun, we decided that it was time to do a topic that we've been sitting on for over a month. That's right, you know it and you love it. VIDEO GAME CHARACTERS!!!!! Now, you might be thinking to yourself, "you've already talked about video game characters a lot, what makes this any different?" And the truth is that you're right. BUT! Here's the thing, we've never talked about how sexy video game characters can be. Nor have we ranked them based ON thei...

Well guys, it’s that time of year again where companies decide that they’re going to pander to their LGBTQ audience by making their logos rainbow and trying to sell them products. I only joke… a little… But seriously, it is pride month and we thought there would be no better way to celebrate the community than by running through some of the best examples of LGBTQ representation in gaming. So we’re going to be taking a look at some of our favorite gay, lesbian, bi, trans, and queer characters in ...

We talk an awful lot about video games on this show and we also talk alot about anime. We were recently talking about topics that we wanted to see come up on the show and one immediately jumped out to us, Anime Video Games. The question, though, is how do we talk about them?

Well, we’re going to be coming back to another ...

This year has seen a ton of triple A releases that have dominated sales charts and come to define the year in gaming thus far. What has been missing, however, has been the top tier indie games that have been seen in years past. This year has, of course, HAD indie games with things like Trek To Yomi, Nobody Saves The World, and Weird West getting attention from press outlets and Nintendo having its indie showcase just over 2 weeks ago. However, just last year, by this point we had Cyber Shadow, O...

Something that has cropped up recently in the land of video games is adaptations of those video games. While said adaptations were all the rage in the late 90s and early to mid-2000s, with the likes of Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil, and Doom receiving lots of attention. Then there was a seeming crash, but in the last couple of years, we've seen a sort of revival in that sphere of media with the likes of Uncharted, League Of Legends, Resident Evil, and Mortal Kombat all receiving adaptations in fi...

We’ve been doing these little battle royale type episodes for the last couple of weeks and this week we wanted to do one more before we sort of turned away from that for a while. This week we decided it would be fun to do something similar to a Deadliest Warrior episode where we pit a bunch of characters against one another and see who comes out on top based on nothing more than their literal powers and prowess in battle. Something of a Super Hunting Pixels Bros if you will. On top of that, Josh...

Bosses. We’ve fought them. Here are some favorites. But in all reality, with Friday’s release of Elden Ring, we’ve been getting our asses handed to us over and over again and we thought, what better a way to celebrate that game and bosses in general.

We’ve all brought some of our favorite and most memorable boss fights with us and we rank all of them! On top of that we've got a couple ...

Every now and again an argument seems to arise between staunch defenders of video games as a medium and the high-class snobbery that is the rest of the art world. That debate being whether or not video games are considered art. One thing that I think all of us at Hunting Pixels definitely agree with is that Video Games are art. So when we get into the real meat of the argument it seems to come down to what video games provide. Most people who disagree with the idea of video games as art point to...
