The Bobby Blackwolf Show

I will be once again hosting at Summer Games Done Quick 2024! Check out my schedule to see what I'm hosting on Day 1 and Day 3 of the event! The cost of being featured on Summer Games Fest is pretty high - but there are some indies that can get in for much, much cheaper...if a particular someone likes you. A billboard outside of Summer Games Fest paid tribute to the closed studios and the laid off...

Bungie has won a lawsuit against a cheat maker on copyright grounds - which has caused the cheat maker to countersue on DMCA grounds. Evercade has announced the Evercade Alpha bartop arcade units with Capcom games - so now you can use (almost) all of the Evercade cartridges in a small arcade setup! Then we talk to Rob about the Evercade Alpha and what you should know about how not ALL of the cartr...

Atari has acquired the Intellivision Brand and many games, but not the Amico console itself. IGN has bought several media properties of the Gamer Network sites such as Eurogamer and Rock Paper Shotgun, and already started laying off their editors. We do talk a little bit about Little Kitty Big City in this show, as well as do an exercise about scoring my favorite video game of all time, Katamari D...

Warner Bros Discovery has announced that they won't retire Adult Swim Games published titles after all, instead they will transfer the store pages to the indie developers. New Tesla cars were going to get native Steam integration until Tesla learned nobody actually cared during the beta phase. The UK Government says game companies don't have a legal obligation to keep older games playable. Take Tw...

The requirement for Helldivers 2 requiring PC players to link a PlayStation Network account has been reversed - for now. The 2024 World Video Game Hall of Fame inductees have been announced! Microsoft closes four studios from the Bethesda/ZeniMax side of the house, including ones that released smaller scale award winning games. They say this is because they can't actually afford to run all of the...

We start off with some clarification from a listener about using the Meta Quest 3 wirelessly with Virtual Desktop to play PCVR games. Dave & Busters is going to be introducing a new feature that may or may not be legal in all states. Helldivers 2 was supposed to launch on PC with a requirement to link your PlayStation Network account, but was put on hold - until this weekend. (This decision was re...

After the first six hours of Eiyuden Chronicles: Hundred Heroes, there are some early impressions...And why I may not continue. Meta Quest has once again partnered with Microsoft and the Xbox brand, but it does not mean that VR is coming to the Xbox console. Valve has closed a refund loophole with regards to games in Advanced Access. Then we talk to Rob about Eiyuden Chronicles and how it is very...

The Game Boy has turned 35 years old in Japan! I try my old Game Boy, as well as discuss how my entire Game Boy library was stolen by a classmate and we never caught him or got any of it back. (And also nobody believed me.) We talk about a viewer comment about having high fidelity VR in an untethered headset - as long as you have high quality equipment. Target is scaling back how much physical med...

Indie gaming studio Possibility Space has closed its doors, claiming it's because of questions from a journalist for an article that hasn't even been published yet. Star Wars: Outlaws will require an online internet connection to install the physical disc - which makes the game preservation aspect of physical media useless. We're still raising money for Make-A-Wish Georgia - we've smashed the orig...

I'm helping raise money for Make-a-Wish Georgia with the Stream Atlanta meetup group this month - let's make some kids wishes come true! Gaming has reportedly fallen to pre-pandemic levels, meaning we aren't playing games as much as we were just a few years ago. Are emulators coming to iOS? Yes, but no - not in the way the media headlines want you to believe. Then we talk to Rob about our playing...

Kotaku is deprioritizing news in favor of guides - which leads into a discussion of "Evergreen Content" vs "Topical Content" when it comes to content creation. We go over the Game Developers Choice Awards - which is the awards show everyone wants when The Game Awards happen, but nobody actually watches. Sony halts production on the PlayStation VR2 headsets because nobody is buying them. Then we ta...
