Geeks, Gamers, and other delinquents from the outer realms, your Captain is signing off for the final time here on Gamers In Beta. With a myriad of technical issues over the last couple of months, it has become apparent the show has been suffering in quality for awhile. I expect better sounding shows each week, as we progress, and we just haven't been able to achieve that. It's been trending bad for awhile. Therefore, I've made the executive decision last night to end the show, effective today, August 21st. I thank anyone who has listened, participated, and supported this podcast over the years. At times, it has been fun, difficult, expensive, and entertaining to say the least, but I truly feel it has run its course. To laugh often and much, CapnMikeM

All the various co-hosts, guests, listeners, contributors, etc., it has been my pleasure to steer this ship for this many episodes. I look forward to delivering you more in the future, as we continue to grow this community of friends as well. Thanks for taking the time each week to hear what some simpletons like us have to say. I didn't expect it to last this long and I didn't expect so many of you to care either. You humble me, while continuously stoking the flames of creativity.

On this episode you'll hear discussions around Darksiders 3, details on the specs of the NEW Nintendo 2DS XL, Zelda: Breath of the Wild DLC, a new Assassin's Creed game, sharks with lasers, and more.

As we inch ever so close to 200 episodes, some of our standard co-hosts are resting up for the big occasion. Therefore, we'd like to thank Nick (GamesontheMind) and Chris from BagoGames for filling in this week for Sean and Jay respectively. In between the constant flow of laughter this week, we managed to discuss topics such as the Prey demo, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, the NEW 2DS XL, and some interesting comments made by Phil Spencer at Xbox.

After some of us were away for a week enjoying other parts of the country, like clockwork, we reconvene for another episode of the Gamers In Beta podcast. Topics this week include the Call of Duty franchise going back in time, the leaked reports of a SNES classic, and more details about Star Wars Battlefront 2. Games we've been playing are The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Flinthook, Marvel Heroes Omega, Ballz, Star Wars Battlefront, Tearaway Unfolded, and ARK: Survival Evolved. And as usual, we have listener responses to our question of the week, as well as some quick news stories to close out Episode 197.

With Holiday schedules all out of whack, we recorded Episode 196 on a Friday this week, which meant Corey couldn't join us. Jay attempted to partake in the fun but alas modern day conveniences like the internet were not on his side this week. Poor one out for ol'Jay. So without those two chatterboxes, you'll notice we have a much shorter/streamlined show for you. For an hour and a few mins, kick back with your leftover Easter candy and listen to us discuss topics like the discontinued NES, the growing popularity of the Nintendo Switch, more Project Scorpio details, and of course, the new Star Wars trailer. Community responses, what we've been playing, and more news items are here too!

A rare Monday night recording...sorry for the 1 day delay and Welcome to Episode 195 of the Gamers In Beta podcast. Microsoft is slowly cranking up the hype machine for the next console release, so we spend the first half of the show talking about the Project Scorpio. Games mentioned this week are The Sexy Brutale, Graceful Explosion Machine, Snake Pass, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Mass Effect: Andromeda, Mushroom 11, Horizon Zero Dawn, Conan Exiles, and ARK: Survival Evolved. Plus there are listener responses, humorous anecdotes, and maybe some factual opinions along the way.

Every now and again, you need to take a week off to re-evaluate whether or not this is worth doing anymore. Well, last week we had one of those weeks. We think a week off did us some good and we're happy to be back with Episode 194 of the Gamers In Beta podcast. This week, we discuss games like Destiny 2, Mass Effect Andromeda, Snake Pass, Old Time Hockey, Horizon Zero Dawn, Zelda: Breath of the Wild and more. Plus, Corey has cooked up a new game show, there is listener feedback, and very little. if any. dad jokes.
