Crubcast

Inspired by Silent Hill f's "optional" ending that requires 4 playthroughs, we decided to dig in on what "optional" really even means. To the point that, actually, we're not sure we even know!

Almost True Trivia is back! Kevin has prepared 10 more prompts to incense Chris, Moriarty, and TravGuy. Let us know if you do better than we do. We know you will.  MORE PLACES TO FIND US Crubscribe ► https://bit.ly/Crubcast Get the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/crub Our Crubcasts are recorded LIVE at https://www.twitch.tv/crub_official every Tuesday...

It is once again time to go on Geoff Keighley's wild ride. We had to fall back on Discord audio for the first 20 or so minutes, so there is some light cutting out. It improves after that as we were able to use our locally recorded audio. Sorry about that!

Today we are feeling nostalgic...for a time long gone, when multiplayer games were only expected to last you for a few hours a week for maybe a month or two. When console wars were the most toxic spats in the gaming space. When Kevin knew a British guy with a dead son on Xbox Party Chat (unsure if this is real).  MORE PLACES TO FIND US Crubscribe ► https://bit.ly/Crubcast Get the show early and ge...

We were meant to play timely games, but only Nicco really understood the assignment. However, Brody REALLY enjoyed Pentiment and you may have forgotten it exists. Chris' only timely contributions this week were Sonic Rumble, Sonic Racing Crossworlds, and the first two episodes of Pluribus. Only one of those three brought him joy. Lastly, Nicco is eating crow on turn-based RPGs. The day has finally...

This week on the Crubcast we wanted to do something a bit more experimental. We gathered our finest minds to tackle an ethereal question...what would our ideal video game's soundtrack be like? What we incorporate "egg" as an instrument? (Yes, that comes up.)

After Sean's gushing about Expedition 33 the other week, Kevin decided to play it for himself. He gets why the internet was so annoying about this now. Trav has played Megabonk and foresees losing her life to it. Arc Raiders whelmed Moriarty, and Chris is just happy that there's a good Digimon game now.

We all have that one game series that seems like it'd be pretty cool to enjoy, but it's just far too daunting to actually take the time to experience. The Witcher, Yakuza, Kingdom Hearts, Fortnite...yeah, Fortnite. Which one is objectively the most difficult though?

This week we're checking in on Battlefield 6, Justin (not) playing Genshin Impact's new Roblox mode, and Nicco playing Outer Wilds without spoiling it. Also, RIP Limp Bizkit guy?

With the impending release of...Ananta...it propelled our gacha experts to wonder...how many of these games can there really be? Surely there can only be so many gigantic, free-to-play gacha games vying for player's time and awareness, right? Also, thoughts on why Justin stays with Genshin years later, and a quick update on the Bengal's great year from their biggest fan. MORE PLACES TO FIND US Cru...

We've played a LOT of Pokémon Legends Z-A already, so we wanted to check in and give our thoughts. What's working, what it's left us wanting, and...trying to remember what the hell happened in X and Y....

Kevin hates us. So, he devised this gaming "trivia" quiz, where our seasoned gaming veterans must listen carefully and pedantically point to the incorrect part of each "fact". It is excruciating. Back to the Future is in here, too.

Our sexy crubbers talk about games they've been playing lately, from Yooka-Replaylee to Clair Obscur, to Silksong and Borderlands 4. We even mention Concord twice. Also, the Minecraft movie had...how many writers...?

Happy 125 episodes. To celebrate, we aren't talking games, we're talking anime. Not just talking anime but getting mad at each other over each other's takes on anime. Except Brody.

This was recorded in a world before Silksong, so please excuse Chris' dunks on the Silksong community. He has since played 8 hours of it and thinks it's good. However, for years before it's release every gaming show would have the same meme. Where's Silksong? We've seen this with other games over time as well. Where's Half-Life 3? Where's Shenmue 3? What's Randy Pitchford doing on that bathroom fl...

There are easy games, and games that are notoriously difficult to "get good" at. However, Moriarty raised this question to us...what is the hardest game (or genre) to become simply "okay" at? Also, how much can a trailer spoil before it's simply objectively spoiling too much? SHOW NOTES The cicadas outside Chris' home make a cameo at around 15 minutes in. If you hear it, that's what's up. TODAY'S...

Fortnite's newest season is here, and it has...Power Rangers and Halo People. Have we reached a point of diminishing returns with Fortnite collabs? Has the underlying cynicism of it all finally shone through the cracks? And, more importantly, which dead and buried 90's franchises are most likely to get the Fortnite glow-up next? Chris predicts Jared Leto. SHOW NOTES If you don't know the video Mor...

Nicco's audio had consistent crackling throughout this episode. We think we made it listenable. We apologize if we didn't. On the bright side, you can pretend that we stuck him in a microwave for this episode, much like Clank, Bentley, and the actual human child from Persona 4.  MORE PLACES TO FIND US Crubscribe ► https://bit.ly/Crubcast Get the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon...

We put out a call for YOUR hot takes on Souls and Soulslikes, and you delivered! We brought them to share with the class, as well as to give some of our own as well. Should FromSoftware give in and let us pause? Are the games TOO gloomy? Are these games secretly rhythm games...?

That new Superman came out, so we wanted to get the world's biggest Superman fan's take on it. Thankfully, Nicco was available. So, he was joined by far smaller Superman fans Moriarty and Trav to discuss the new James Gunn Superman film. Obviously, spoilers ahead.  MORE PLACES TO FIND US Crubscribe ► https://bit.ly/Crubcast Get the show early and get exclusive content at our Patreon ► https://www....

Today, three grown men try to explain "locking in". One, with words, one, with brevity, and one...by referring to the One Piece powerscaling subreddit. Hawk Eyed guy is still the best swordsman in the series, though. Later, Chris expresses his disappointment with the continued SEGA & Roblox partnership and how his favorite thing is kind of uncool now. Also, Brody breaks our brains. Again.  MOR...

Chris and Kevin are joined by Wayneisboss for THE Donkey Kong Bananza spoilercast. We give some general thoughts up front, and then give a few tiers of spoiler warning as we delve further in. To be safe though, it'd be best to listen to this if you've already beaten the game or just don't mind hearing some of the places it goes. SHOW NOTES Go show Wayne some love, and tell him we sent you (please,...

On today's episode we wanted to talk about what's going on with Visa, Mastercard, Itch.io, and potentially more and more storefronts in all mediums in the near future. We get into some sensitive topics, particularly with the discussion around the game called 'No Mercy'. There are chapter marks to skip that section, but there are a few mentions of traumatic subjects outside of that portion to help...
