The honest perceptions of one family's video game experience, from the family itself, in podcast form.
Our triumphant return to podcasting, we spent two and a half years making. How many other single podcast episode cover two E3's and two console launches?
A four month hiatus leads to an episode with segments recorded in each month of a long, game-filled, E3-filled, fun-filled, and work-filled summer.
We tackle the thorny issue of backseat gaming, when a family member or friend "helps" by choosing what you play and how you play it, and when that help is welcome.
Dad gets the kids to try some classic arcade and Atari games, then the family discusses buying games new versus used, and the kids try a bedtime segment of their own.
We discuss scary games, like the Silent Hill games (spoiling Shattered Memories and Homecoming), Juon for Wii, scary parts of WOW, and when and why to play them.
Things go from light to heavy as we start by exploring cheating at games, and transition into game hacking (including WOW), and have honest discussions about game piracy.
We explore multiplayer games from our family's view, with multiplayer memories, tips and rants on sharing consoles and computers, sharing the World of Warcraft, and more!
Listen in as Dad and Noah let you eavesdrop on one of their Super Mario Bros. Wii sessions, and Sabrina, Dad, and Hannah go about their business after Garageband apparently freezes.
Our first episode shares early gaming memories, views on survival horror from the Daughter, iPod games from the Son, the Family WOW pow-wow, and more!
