Dense Pixels - Video Game News and Reviews

Terrence is pretty unimpressed with Predator: Hunting Grounds, and also unimpressive is the fact that Micah is still playing Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3, this time with 100% more Dr. Doom. Epic is truly trying to take over the world, there's one Mario game that should NEVER me remastered, GameStop associates are protecting themselves with plastic bags now, and Wrestlemania is gonna be really damn w...

That was certainly a console reveal. A very long, informative, over explained (and yet under explained) console reveal. How is backwards compatibility working on PS5 again? GameStop also had themselves a week that it's *ahem* essential they learn from. We also talk about our experiences with the COVID-19 situation, both in gaming and personal terms.   Use our Amazon page to donate to the show:  ww...

The C-virus has rightfully lent to a slow news week. Obviously Brad and Carrie find their way into a massive baseball tangent. E3 got canceled literally hours after we recorded last week. We talk about the new Xbox controller. Good news is we answer several questions in the Post Office about how to survive after an apocalypse which seems prescient! Also wrestling is happening in an empty gym, whic...

We talk about GameStop probably more than we ever have now that the muzzle is off as we discuss Reggie Fils-Aime's surprising appointment to the GameStop board of directors and what the future may hold for a company in crisis. Micah gives his top-line thoughts on Granblue Fantasy Vs, we figure out how long the ESA has to make a decision on E3 2020, Ghost of Tsushima is coming out real soon, and 2K...

We're talking about a lot of whack stuff this episode. Coronavirus (whack!), Google Stadia (whack!), Xbox Series X (not whack), Final Fantasy VII Remake demo (maybe whack?), Trials of Osiris returning to Destiny (not whack), and Micah teaches you heathens how to properly garnish your sushi.   Use our Amazon page to donate to the show:  www.densepixels.com/amazon Subscribe to our YouTube channel: ...

Outriders was all the rage last week! Are we going to get sucked into the hype? Or is it Anthem all over again? We also talk the significance of Geoff Keighley skipping his first E3 in 2020 (and why Con-jima 2021 is definitely happening!), what Micah and Terrence thought of their time in The Division 2, Untitled Goose Game's unlikely triumph at the DICE Awards, the potential supply issues the Play...

This week we discuss the death and rebirth of Anthem and what we think will happen in the game's future, hear Brad's impressions of Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, discuss some surprising industry departures from Rockstar Games and The Coalition, figure out why Mortal Kombat 11 won't be appearing at EVO 2020, and much more!   Use our Amazon page to donate to the show:  www.densepixels.com/amazo...

Pokemon Sword and Shield is getting new DLC. Who'd have thunk it? Well, us. Months ago. Because obviously. Carrie is also pretty beside herself with Microsoft not delivering any Xbox Series X console exclusives out of the gate...but maybe the strategy isn't all bad? Sony is also not going to E3, Terrence delivers his top five of 2019, and much more.    Use our Amazon page to donate to the show:  w...

First, we have the nominees for the 2019 Game Awards. Listen to Micah and Terrence hear the nominees for the first time, and marvel at the two games that inexplicably have the most nominations!

This week we discuss our initial impressions of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and you'll never guess which of the three of us didn't particularly care for the game! Micah gives his thoughts on Pokemon Shield, Google Stadia sure is limping out of the gate, Bioware isn't giving up on Anthem yet, and please won't they just give us remastered Mass Effect already! We also end up discussing fighting gam...

Yes, we talk about the widely varying Death Stranding reviews, though none of us have played the game yet! We also discuss Blizzard and J. Allen Brack's non-apology apology at Blizzcon 2019, as well as the Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 distracti...er, announcements. Also, Call of Duty Modern Warfare is getting review-bombed by Russia, Anthem might really and truly be dead in the water, a popular Fortn...

Among the topics we discuss this week are Micah and Carrie's thoughts on their experiences so far in The Outer Worlds, Micah's knee-jerk Call of Duty Modern Warfare impressions, arguably the biggest Bethesda gaffe yet with the (failed) introduction of Fallout 1st, gamers forcing publishers to take more time developing their big releases, the Overwatch 2 "leak", WWE 2K20's embarrassing, bug-riddled...

We also discuss the death and rebirth of Fortnite, new confirmed PlayStation 5 facts, an NPD study that suggests broadband caps are going to be a major problem for game streaming services, and so much more.   Use...

This week Brad and Carrie are here to tell you their thoughts on The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and whether a remade Gameboy game is worth the attached $60 price tag. We also discuss the rumored new Batman game possibly coming from WB Montreal, the Batman/Fortnite crossover event, video game companies getting involved in the fight against climate change, the first limited event coming to Bo...

Brad and Micah talk their impressions of Borderlands 3, but that's at the end of the show!
