Episode 29: Mobile Games

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/06/mobile_mixdown.mp3 Episode 29: Mobile Games Hey everyone! In this episode we discuss mobile games (iOS & Android) and how they compare to other mobile platforms like the Nintendo DS family. We mentioned some of our favorite games (Monument Valley, Warp Gate, Jumping Finn) and tried to figure out why there are so few quality games for our cell phones. Thanks for listening! We hope you’ll come out to see us at Albany Comicon on June 7...

Episode 28: Golf Games, DLC, and Konami

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/05/golf-final_mixdown.mp3 Episode 28: Golf Games This week we discuss golf games, Konami’s radical shift in game development, and downloadable content. Specifically, we take a look at Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2013: Masters Collector’s Edition for the Xbox 360 and Kirby’s Dream Course for the Super Nintendo. These are widely different games and show that there’s actually a lot of variety within the genre of golf games. There are actually a lot ...

Episode 26: Video Game Music

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/04/music_mixdown.mp3 Episode 26: Video Game Music Occasionally we wander away from game reviews to talk about larger “game theory” concepts and today we’re discussing video game music, both new and old. We touch on classic NES themes as well as the full orchestral scores of modern games. We’ll also touch on some interesting phenomenon associated with gaming music such as the reintroduction of classic music (jazz, oldies, etc) into pop cult...

Episode 25: Destiny – Part 2

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/destiny-2_mixdown.mp3 Episode 25: Destiny – Part 2 In our conclusion to Destiny we discuss weapons, the multiplayer (PvP), vault space, and whether or not the game is good. We really love Destiny. It’s compelling and intriguing but not without it’s flaws. We haven’t totally cracked the Destiny code yet. Perhaps the next game in the series will help us figure out what makes Destiny tick and why it has been so extremely popular. As always...

Episode 24: Destiny – Part 1

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/destiny_mixdown.mp3 Episode 24: Destiny As you may recall, we previously discussed Destiny when the beta came out during the Summer of 2014. Since that time the world of Destiny has exploded and the experience is unrecognizable from those early days. We’ve collectively sunk 300 hours into this game and we’re currently powering our way through the end-game content. We’ve decided to revisit what has been one of the most contentious, yet a...

Episode 23: Mass Effect 3

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/me3_mixdown.mp3 Episode 23: Mass Effect 3 We’ve reached the end of the Mass Effect Trilogy reviews. Mass Effect 3 is one of the most controversial games in recent memory. The ending of the game polarized fans and led Bioware to extend what they released. Mass Effect 3 improves on many of the game mechanics introduced in the previous two games and is, in many ways, a more streamlined version of Mass Effect 1. Mass Effect 3 is more than a...

Episode 22: Mass Effect 2

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/me2_mixdown.mp3 Episode 22: Mass Effect 2 Alex from Agree or Die is back to help us out with our Mass Effect series. This week we are discussing Mass Effect 2. Stripped down and streamlined this game is significantly different from the first and third titles in the series but it is still a joy to play. Mass Effect 2 also has some of the greatest Downloadable Content in the series and some of the best value for DLC in gaming as a whole. ...

Episode 21: Year End Review

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/yeah-end_mixdown.mp3 Episode 21: Year End Review We’re still working on our Mass Effect retrospective but in the mean time we wanted to do a year end review of both the gaming industry in general but also the podcast specifically. This week’s episode is a little more self indulgent and list-based but I think we’ve made consistent cases all along as to why any specific game fits the chosen categories. You will also hear a little bit abou...

Episode 20: Mass Effect

https://player2pressstartdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2014/12/mass-effect_mixdown.mp3 Episode 20: Mass Effect Alex from Agree or Die joins us for a review and retrospective of Mass Effect. Mass Effect has gone down as one of the top science fiction video-game epics of all time. It certainly follows in the footsteps of earlier games like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, also by Bioware. Mass Effect is a wholly original intellectual property that allowed Bioware to go in whatever direction th...
