Hunting Pixels

There seems to be a never-ending stream of games coming these days. Where do you find the time? It’s definitely a hard thing to do, but one thing we seem to do is find time for games that we love. So that’s what we plan to talk about for you today. We’re going talk about some of our favorite games from our formative years and why they resonated with us and why they still resonate with us. On top o...

You know them, you love them, you might even support them, BUT do you know what makes them tick? Well why don't you find out? This special episode is an interview focused on the one of the cohosts of Hunting Pixels, the one and only OMDIZZY! He sat down with patron, Justin Ruiss, to get interviewed. They talk about his love of hip hop and metal, why he loves hiking, and what he loves about streami...

Something that has cropped up recently in the land of video games is adaptations of those video games. While said adaptations were all the rage in the late 90s and early to mid-2000s, with the likes of Mortal Kombat, Resident Evil, and Doom receiving lots of attention. Then there was a seeming crash, but in the last couple of years, we've seen a sort of revival in that sphere of media with the lik...

We’re back and it’s been almost two weeks since we’ve had an episode go live (which actually isn't true, but hey, who's counting)! As that is the case, we’ve decided that this might be the right time for one of our favorite recurring topics, the catch up episode. So, We’ll be talking about the media that we have consumed, the games we’ve played, and of course, our regularly scheduled picks of the...

This week marks about the quarter way point of our year and we thought it would be a good idea to take a look at where we’re at in regards to out challenge, talk about the way the gaming landscape has looked thus far and what we’re expecting for the rest of the year! On top of that we have some details another tournament that we’ll be running here in Q2 of the year as well as details on another fr...

You know him, you love him, you might even support, BUT do you know what makes him tick? Well why don't you find out? This special episode is an interview focused on the one and only Bebop Man himself, Josh! He sat down with patron, Justin Ruiss, to get interviewed. They talk about his love of movies and the genre of horror. Probably most importantly, they answer the biggest question everyone has...

We’ve been doing these little battle royale type episodes for the last couple of weeks and this week we wanted to do one more before we sort of turned away from that for a while. This week we decided it would be fun to do something similar to a Deadliest Warrior episode where we pit a bunch of characters against one another and see who comes out on top based on nothing more than their literal powe...

Bosses. We’ve fought them. Here are some favorites. But in all reality, with Friday’s release of Elden Ring, we’ve been getting our asses handed to us over and over again and we thought, what better a way to celebrate that game and bosses in general. SO, with that said, we’ve decided that for the third week running we were going to do a ranking of boss fights. We’ve all brought some of our favorit...

Before shifting to a Pokemon-based topic last week to sort of preview our upcoming Pokemon Legends Spoilercast, I had another… ranking topic in mind. What makes this topic even better is that we’re in the month of love and we’re also weeks away from International Women’s Day. SO, what are we doing here today? Well, we’ve planned on discussing and of course RANKING our favorite female video game ch...

The boys go in depth on the newest Pokemon game!!! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The boys like Pokemon. Josh mildly tolerates it. There are starters. We’re rating them. That’s it! But that's not all! We’ll also be talking about the media that we have consumed, the games we’ve played, and of course, our regularly scheduled, picks of the week! Media Discussed: Demon Slayer Flee The Queen Of Basketball Killswitch Engage Concert Murderville Video Games Discussed: Ori And The Will...

Every now and again an argument seems to arise between staunch defenders of video games as a medium and the high-class snobbery that is the rest of the art world. That debate being whether or not video games are considered art. One thing that I think all of us at Hunting Pixels definitely agree with is that Video Games are art. So when we get into the real meat of the argument it seems to come dow...

Even more acquisition news comes from up on the mound this week and with the boys busy with real life stuff, it seemed best to forego a regular episode to instead get in another special episode where we can discuss the news of the moment. So that's what we did and we hope you enjoy. As always you can find us on social media for all things Culture Bop, Hunting Pixels, and the Culture Bop family of...

We’re back at the regularly scheduled episodes finally, BUT we’ve been doing so much since we’ve had a regular episode that we HAD decided that it is a good idea to do a catch up episode and then Microsoft had to go a do the big dumb and buy activision. This of course prompted a change in our topic, SO this week, we have decided to return to that catch up episode and talk about all of the things w...

We’re back at the regularly scheduled episodes finally, BUT we’ve been doing so much since we’ve had a regular episode that we HAD decided that it is a good idea to hold a catch up episode, HOWEVER breaking news dictated that we talk about something else entirely. On top of our topic of the show, Josh has a movie that he desperately wants to talk about and we all have some games to talk about in b...

This week was a whirlwind of things happening around the Culture Bop world and as such we weren't able to get out a regularly scheduled episode, BUT that didn't, of course, mean there wasn't something to talk about. Enter one Justin Ruiss, who some of you might now as the persona non grata of Culture Bop. He came to me with the idea to do a special on the acquisition of Zynga by Take Two and how i...

We just wrapped up our game of the year episode last week and finished up our look back at last year. Now it’s time to keep our eyes trained on what’s ahead. So the topic of discussion this week is going to be centered around just that. This week we’re going to take a look at our most hotly anticipated games of 2022 and what makes them so damn exciting! We also talk in depth about Spider-Man: No W...

So We are here! It has come to this. Hunting Pixels is ready to get to you, the listener, our Game Of The Year! That said, We need to go ahead and explain our system and the ground rules. First, we’re using the system that was completely ripped off from Giant Bomb and Let’s Fight A Boss and we will be listing the games that we’ve played and then cutting them one by one until we get to our ultimate...

Every year, it gets this time of year and everyone starts putting out their game of the year nominees and winners and we’re no different. However, in the interest of giving you smaller more digestible episodes we’ve decided that it’s more beneficial to break those things up, and as such we’re going to have separate shows for separate things. This week’s episode will be all about next year. That’s...

And what might this topic entail? Well fine listeners, today we’re going to be talking about some great choices for gifts this holiday season for the gamer in all of your homes! That’s righ...

And to kick everyone off, Geoff Keighley and co have given us the nominations for the game awards. And that is what...

Gaming has grown in significant ways since its inception in the 70s. There have been vast changes to the way systems are handled. There have been changes to hardware that have allowed for more robust music and visuals. There has been the integration of story and character to video games. For all of those changes, there has been one thing that hasn’t changed and that is art design. Art design has a...

There has been talk, including on this very program, that 2021 has not had games. I would wholeheartedly disagree on that front. We’ve had a ton of games and a ton of them have been quite good. I would even go so far as to say that some of them would be shoe-in for game of the year even in years like 2017 which is an outrageous amount of great games. But this year has also had some games that woul...
