Emotive Pixels — Marginalia on Videogames

Leisure EN ↓ 106 afleveringen

A one-game-at-a-time deep dive podcast where we treat videogames like texts worth reading closely. Each episode, we pick a game, spoil its story, and dig into it the way you would with a book club—except we’re usually reading an academic book alongside it and using it as a lens for discussion. Season 5 focuses on AAA games and what that label actually means in practice. Friendly to listeners who haven’t played the games, but unapologetically spoil-heavy and discussion-driven.

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons spoilercast 02.07.2014 1:52:54

In a series of escalating buffoonery, we attempt to describe the plot of this beautiful game and merely end up vaguely outlining some of the concepts that make it so great. Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is another indie darling put on the level of Braid and Fez : a game you should definitely play. Here today to talk about it are Will, Brian, Nate, Alberto, Geoff, Tyson, and Tien-ju. Fundamentally,...
