We have a bunch of news this week - Escape from Tarkov fiasco, Embracer splitting up with some of the worst names ever, and some other news.  Then we go over games on our radar in the near future.  Peterson selects his Dice of Destiny game.  

Since the Fallout show that Peterson has been pitching for years is such a hit, we thought we should revisit this segment and pitch some more shows that are definitely our idea first.   JD reviews Deep Rock Galactic Survivor.   

This week is a shorter-than-normal episode.  We talk about the Fallout tv show briefly and then go over some of the game trailers that dropped this week - Slay the Spire 2, Undermine 2, Star Wars Outlaws, and The Rogue Prince of Persia.   JD picks his Dice of Destiny game.  

It's episode 365, so natrually I issue the 3-Bit Challenge to anyone sadistic enough to try it.   We have some gaming news followed by kudos.   Then two of our listeneres collaborated to create an amazing Crave song.  It's incredible.   Then Peterson reviews Dicey Dungeons, Rogue Tower, and Diablo 4 in a review blitz.   JD does not pick his Dice game.  

Crazy news this week - Will Smith, PS5 Pro, IIII, Russian consoles, and much more.  Then we talk about what makes us really get into a specific genre of game.  Then Peterson reviews Lonestar.  

The news this week is top notch.  Overwatch 2 doing Blizzard things, Larian mic drops, a pivot for Kotaku, Dragon's Dolla 2, Steam Families and a bunch of Riblets.   We get a listener email and then play our game Sound Bits for death or game over sounds in games.   Peterson picks his Dice game.  

The news is pretty light but still great this week.  Peterson rants about Little Caesar's.  Jenna talks about 3 new metroidvanias she's been playing: Gedda Cake, Biomorph, and Ultros.  Peterson reviews Dorfromantic.  

A lot of news this week coming from WB games (none of it great), a little Helldivers news, and a huge new QA testers union.  Also, GTA Joker is back and we're so happy about it.   We try a new segment where we talk about a game that has hooked us Blues Traveller style.  We discuss if we think it has staying power or not.  Yes, that is Balatro.   Peterson picks his Dice of Destiny game.  

It's gone full circle with Episode 360. Tons of news this week - good, bad, and funny. Then Peterson reviews Helldivers 2 and JD reviews his Dice of Destiny game Gigabash.

Following Ubisoft's example we are now the 4-Bit Gamer Show. Or the 17-Bit Gamer Show. I don't think we officially landed on how many Bits. The news segment is positive this week and then Peterson pushes his Helldivers review to next week because he REALLY wants to talk about Balatro, a poker-style deckbuilder.

We have some news, some layoffs, some Riblets. Then Peterson reviews Hell Let Loose and JD reviews his Dice of Destiny game, Neon White.

Lynn is back after a LONG hiatus to talk about some Baldur's Gate 3. We have a ton of news as well. JD re-picks his Dice game.

Sonic and Shadow shipped, Death Stranding 2 trailer is INSANE, new Blizzard president, layoffs and some riblets. JD does a keyboard confessional about rebuilding his PC. Then Peterson does a rundown for a simple dice game you should all learn and play with your families and friends called Bank. Peterson picks JD's Dice of Destiny game for him.

The cookie biz is steaming up this week. Notice the parody commercial in this episode is not real. There is no Hot Carl cookie. We cover the news, of course more layoffs, we review the Blurstie results, and then we go straight into Dice of Destiny to talk about Palworld for a while.

We try our best to appeal to Gen Z but we honestly just don't understand what we're even saying. Oh well. We have some light news followed by a review on Roboquest and Traveller's Rest. JD picks his Dice of Destiny game.

We got the news we didn't hit for the last couple of weeks and then we review some of our predictions from last year (specifically the ones we got right) and then make some new ones for this year. Then we make a couple of resolutions and Peterson reviews Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora.

Our last Christmas-themed episode of the season. We have Aaron on to talk some brief news including the massive Insomniac leak. Then JD does a review for Space Trash Scavenger. We play some Crew, Carry, Kill with characters from Christmas movies or shows. Peterson takes a mulligan.

Two potential Blurstie noms this week in the news with Twitch and The Day Before. We also talk about Joker Gang a little I think. JD and Jenna decide whether Extremely Powerful Capybaras gets a First Impression Rose and then we play some Christmas IRL. Peterson picks his Dice game.

For some reason we are off the rails this week. We are talking The Day Before, Walupeach, Bungie, and Hello Games. Then we do some Be Kind, Rewind about gaming with family over the holidays. JD reviews Deliver Us Mars and we do a reroll.

Jenna joins us this week to talk about the news - Fallout TV show trailer drops, shady Russian microtransactioners, EA using AI to replicate your voice in games, kids in the US being lame and more! Then we do TWO First Impression Roses - Peterson talks about Lethal Company and Jenna talks about The Artful Escape. JD selects his Dice of Destiny game.

Gabe Newell teaches us the wise words "Suck is forever". JD asks us what games we wish they had delayed and then JD reviews Signalis.

We plan a heist. It's pretty basic, but we're hoping it'll get used in the documentary about the heist. The Game Mill is at it again and we're here for it. We also talk some other gaming news. Then Peterson revisits Baldur's Gate 3. JD picks his Dice game and Trent reviews Darkwood.
