3-bit Gamer Show

This week we couldn't resist jumping on the March Madnits bandwagon and ended up creating our own bracket. We thought of the 32 most popular video game celebs, seeded them, and pitted them against one another in a single-elimination, to-the-death, Celebrity Deathmatch-style showdown. It's pretty incredible and you'll probably disagree with some of our choices. We also do throw the dice in Dice of Destiny and of give out some basketball kudos.

This week is all about RPGs. We talk about quest fatigue and RPG quirks we all have, then introduce a new segment called Don't Think Too Hard. We also talk about JRPGs and what other countries' RPGs would look like. Oh and Peterson regales of a story of puppies, vans, and children walking to school.

This week we get all artsy fartsy with our awesome guest, local game concept artist Dani Powers. Dani walks us through what she does as a concept artist, her latest game DIVE: Starpath, and then we get into the Good, Bad, and Ugly of video game art.

This week JD rants about discontinued junk food for like half the episode. Then we get you all caught up on the games we're playing, and we're playing some awesome games. JD talks Assassin's Creed: Origins, Peterson talks Subnautica, and Spencer simply cannot put down Monster Hunter World. And stick around for a Dice of Destiny reroll!

This week is all about improvements in video games - from full game mods to UX tweaks. Peterson catches us up on the puzzle game he rolled in Dice of Destiny and we beg game developers to remaster our favorite games in Dear Game Devs.

This week we bring on special guest and cosplay extraordinaire Laura "Kaz" Mercer, who tells us all about her experience as a cosplayer at BlizzCon! Later we discuss living in a video game world in Good, Bad, and Ugly, and we finish up by pitching Laura some of our worst cosplay ideas.

This week it's JD's turn to blow a gasket in our 2v1 where he argues that cartridge games are going to make a comeback. We also get nostalgic about physical games in Be Kind, Rewind and wrap up with a Dice of Destiny review for Overcooked.

This week we catch you up on all the latest gaming news and all the new games we're playing right now. We talk Northgard, Monster Hunter World, Dead Cells, Double Dragon Neon, and a ton of other awesome stuff. But the real reason to listen is for the conniption Peterson has when Spencer talks crap on Salvadorian food.

We dug an old lost sode out of the 3BG vault, brushed it off, and threw it up here! This week is all about shooters - we talk the good, bad, and ugly of shooter games, dedicate some serious time to Halo, and discuss the benefits of a rumble mouse. Oh and JD tells a story about lodging a saw in his hand.

If you're curious about what the heck it means to mine cryptocurrency like Bitcoin and why miners are buying all the GPUs in the world, Spencer fills you in in Explain the Hype. We also come up with some wild new Labo plans in Dear Game Devs and fill you in on all the crazy games we're playing right now.

It's that time again when we turn to our beloved listeners to hear what's on their minds. This week we answer your listener questions ranging from Ready Player One to Fable. And stick around because one lucky listener wins some swag for their awesome question!

The Blursties winners are in and the results are sure to shake up the gaming community, if not the international community at large. We talk about end game content and then beg game developers to breathe new life into our favorite dead games in Dear Game Devs.

This week we welcome back Dustin Hansen to fight against us in this year's Console Wars - four consoles enter, one console leaves! We pit the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch against one another in a battle royale that's DEFINITELY NOT A RIPOFF OF PUBG (please don't sue us, Bluehole).

JD was alone for Christmas and almost asphyxiated on Froot Loops, Peterson got his kids a Switch, and Spencer fell back in love with an old ex-gamefriend. We look forward to a new year and everyone makes a few gaming New Years Resolutions for 2018. And stick around to the end because we do a Dice of Destiny re-roll!

We wrap up our Blursties two-part special with a bang, laying down our nominations for Worst Decision, Worst Company, Worst Writing, Worst Launch, and Worst Gamer Rage. Listener voting opens TODAY so make sure to vote for your favorites here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/3SQLPTY

Christian Spicer, stand-up comedian and host of the DLC podcast stops by to help us with the first annual Blursties - our video game version of the Razzies. We give out our nominations for biggest gaming disappointment, worst name, worst sequel, worst character, and most overrated game. Oh and Christian tells us about that time he beat someone so badly in Blitz 2000 that they never played video games again.

Would you rather be lucky or good? We're usually neither, so this week we're talking all about luck in video games. We get into a 2v1 fight about whether our group is really jinxed and then argue some more about whether or not loot crates count as gambling.

We catch up on what everyone's playing - from Heroes of the Storm to Call of Duty to Ibb and Obb. Listen in for a rant about microtransactions and Peterson's idea for a colorblind mode paywall. And JD makes a huge prediction about the upcoming Age of Empires games.

This week we bring on special guest Jackson Livingston to talk about sports video games and why none of ever really play them anymore. Peterson is obsessed with Mario Tennis while the rest of the group talks about NBA Jam, Madden, and NFL Blitz.

You know we gotsta talk about this Battlefront II nonsense. Peterson has finally found his perfect MMO in AIR and the guys interview JD about his experience with Wolfenstien II. Also the draft results are in and it's not looking good for JD...
