Death of the Games Press
Is the games press dying, or just changing?...
2015 has come to a close and it was one hell of a year for gaming. Besides providing a steady stream of great games all year, there were some moments that stuck out more than others. Kojima and Konami breaking up, Microsoft making a roaring comeback, Gamergate showing it’s not dead, and now even Nintendo has dipped their toes into the mobile pool. We talk about all those topics and more, plus give our outlook for 2016 in this year’s State of the Gaming Union.
Jarret is Executive Director as well as one of the founding members of Mash Those Buttons. He plays all types of games, but tends to lean more toward FPS, Stealth, and Combat games.
Host of WoW! Talk! and The Tauren & The Goblin. Sometimes known as the Video Games Public Defender. Wants to play more Destiny and Marvel Heroes but WoW is all-consuming. Decent F2P Hearthstone player. Sad that he lost the Wii that had Wrecking Crew on it. Would be happy if the only game ever made was M.U.L.E. Gragtharr on Skywall-US. Garresque on Ravencrest-US.
We discuss the Evo 2025 lineup, go over the Evo Awards categories and nominations, discuss DLC characters incoming for a few games, and get hyped over the Virtua Fighter tech demo..
This week we return to Eos where there's Kett, a place named Advent, children in one form or another, and an Architect!
We continue our slow tour through the Dawntrial story, and also have some fun chaotic commentary.
