Hopped-Up 64

This week the gents ask the real questions. Like, what kind of drink did Norris invent? What sort of pornographic flash game does Donald Trump remind us of? Also we dig deep back into Elden Ring, because it rules. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Jack Shirai, Matt Emery, Bill McDonnell Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

I dunno a bunch of games got shown at the Summer Game Fest, but not a ton of it was all that exciting so we talk a lot about prestige TV and Tunic. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Jack Shirai, David Beebe Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

This week Dave explains who the hell Black Adam is, and whether or not the DC Comics movies know what their long-term plans are. We also dig deep into the suspiciously good lineup of Warhammer 40K games coming out in the not-too-distant future. Also Dave needs some new arms. Please Games Workshop send Dave new arms. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Jack Shirai, David Beebe M...

Boxes on boxes on boxes on boxes! Boxes! We dig in deep this week about Patrick's Parabox, a block-puzzler that we all fell in love with. But also some talk about Norris going to war with his bank, and the pregnant Padme lego figure in the latest Star Wars Lego game. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Jack Shirai, Steph Fan, Mike Parker, Matt Emery Music by David Beebe (@norwe...

This week the crew talks about someone buying a Funko Pop for 6 figures, steam player statistics, the puzzle video game market, and some Deep Video Game Market Analysis. Also some Citizen Sleeper, Rogue Legacy 2, Patrick's Parabox, and some other stuff I'm forgetting as I write this.

It's not *technically* illegal. This week the gang becomes fascinated by Corona's 0.0% alcohol beer, the Sunbrew. We also talk a lot more about Warhammer 40: Chaos Gate Daemon Hunter, Norris tries to convince Dave to get a PS5, and then we all get in a leaky submersible in an ocean of blood, with Iron Lung. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, David Beebe, Jack Shirai, Steph Fan...

That's true of pretty much every video game. This week we talk about beer, and specifically whether or not it's okay to put sulfur in it. We also dig into a bunch of video games, with Norris wrapping up Demon's Souls, Jack getting close to wrapping up Elden Ring, and Matt jumping into box-shaped universes with Patrick's Parabox. There's also de-facto reviews for Warhammer 40K: Chaos Gate-Daemon Hu...

The squad talks up and talks down The Artful Escape in this month's Games Club, a pretty, infuriating story-focused platformer about a kid who wants to fight his uncle. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Matt Emery, David Beebe, Mike Parker, Steph Fan, Jack Shirai Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

This week, people make fun of Norris, before we dig deep into comparing Demon's Souls and Elden Ring. We also talk about that hot new game Earthbound, before ending the ep by making fun of Warhammer 40K. Overall a good sesh. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Matt Emery, David Beebe, Steph Fan, Jack Shirai Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

None of the gang have played much other than Elden Ring this week, so we veer off into weird territory and discuss which Smash Bros character would be the best wartime general. Link to the Smash Festival Picture we talk about for the whole latter half of the pod can be found here: https://imgur.com/rbUlrmx Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, Steph Fan, Jack Shirai...

Don't listen to doctors, it's true. This week the gang drinks some canned cocktails and talks about Divinity Original Sin 2. Also there's some more Elden Ring, and some games from the indie game group Sokpop Collective. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, Jack Shirai, Matt Emery Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

It's Game Club this week, where we discuss King of Dragon Pass! Hang out as we had on down to the Dragon Pass, make friends with the nearest duck tribe, and try to figure out just how bad things are going to be when one of your cows births a two-headed calf! Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, Jack Shirai, Matt Emery Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

This week we debrief on the Oscars, talk about high-level Risk strategies, and admit that some of us are only ever going to be playing Elden Ring from here on out. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, David Beebe, Jack Shirai, Matt Emery Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

You can't make me. This week we go deep into bad Netflix reality TV, more Elden Ring, and Triangle some strategies. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, David Beebe, Jack Shirai Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

This week! Elden Ring, King of Dragon's Pass, and The Batman! Fun for the whole family! Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Bill McDonnell, Matt Emery Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

More like Bellend Ring am I right folks? Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Steph Fan, Mike Parker, David Beebe Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

This week the gang only wants one thing and it's disgusting: making history come alive! That's right we're heading to The Forgotten City this week for February's Game Club; we discuss our time moving to the fun little underground town, making friends, engaging in some Socratic dialogue, and threatening eternal time-loop-based torment onto our enemies. Join us as we travel back in time! Beer of the...

We're back in the podcast saddle after our GOTY works, and have so many games to talk about! But first, an extended treatise on the 2003 classic Master and Commander. Norris has played too many video games, with some quick notes on Nobody Saves the World, Eastward, It Takes Two, The Forgotten City, and Horizon: Forbidden West, Matt loves Fallout: New Vegas, and Dave is taking his love of Warhammer...

Welcome to part 2 of our GOTY casts, where we get rowdy! We take all our personal favourites from last year, and arbitrarily argue what deserves to be our group top ten. There's wheeling, there's dealing, there's insane decisions, but we get a 2021 Top Ten out of it all! Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, Steph Fan, David Beebe, Jack Shirai, Matt Emery Music by Da...

It's the end of the year in February folks! And thus we're digging into Hopped-Up 64's Game of the Year. This week we go over each of our individual lists of our 2021 faves, while doing our best to stay sufficiently sober. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, Steph Fan, David Beebe, Jack Shirai, Matt Emery Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

This week we discuss Before Your Eyes, the 2021 blinking simulator game from GoodbyeWorld Games. I guess you could say ourdecision on this game's split! Spoilers of course for those who haven't played, as we break down the narrative, get into our individual opinions, and ask whether or not the cry game succeeded in making us cry. Also Mike was bad this week. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Host...

British food is terrible. This week, Norris is losing it to the end of 13 Sentinels, and no on else has really played video games so we talk a lot about tennis and warhammer. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Mike Parker, Steph Fan, David Beebe Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

This week, colours break Norris' brain, Matt is a contrarian, Jack is playing some indie darlings, and Dave will not apologize for anime. Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Jack Shirai, Matt Emery, David Beebe Music by David Beebe (@norwegianvowels)

This week we've got a good long roundtable on how everyone had the Roni, Mike and Steph go to Overcooked counselling, Dave's going back to the classics, and Norris thinks Mecha is degenerate.

Almost called this episode Summer Nog instead, but a winner came in at the 11th hour. This week, we've got Matt discussing Automated Alien Genocide in Factorio, Mike is playing Hitman 3 and also reveals his Covid test live on pod, Steph is having intrusive thoughts watching Hitman 3, and Jack wants Destiny 2 to stop vaulting things Beer of the Week: Quarantine Beers Hosts: Chris Norris, Steph Fan,...
