Gamers Over 50 Podcast Mitch @ Gamers Over 50

Gamers Over 50 has been a lot of fun researching and learning about games and genres of games. Then I hit a wall on developing content...so I just played a lot of games!



I started to think about games, then specifically games for us over 50. Should I play this game, do I need better hardware or different hardware? Is the pace of the game too fast or slow, do I have enough time to play the game or other factors.



I also realized some games have me sitting and clicking way too much. Do I need to sit in front a monitor to the point I get eye strain, or I sit way too much!



I put together some factors and am going to take some of the games I have played and put these factors in play to help give a better view of games for those over 50!

The interesting and obscure of the Christmas holiday was on my mind today and I took to the interweb to find some fun facts you can tell others any year, but especially this year. I also tried to track Santa with NORAD while recording!

So I am traveling like a majority of people this holiday season and while I may not go over an ocean or continent to continent and get stuck on a deserted island. I could get stuck in an airport or at our rental without electricity! I thought about grabbing a book to read or reread or a movie to watch or rewatch and some of the games I can travel with that would be great in an airport, at the house without power or along the way!

So there is a holiday coming up this week in the US and you may have some extra time with a couple days off or you work with folks in the US and they are all gone and not driving you crazy (I am very sorry for everything I do to drive my coworkers crazy) and you also have some extra time as well.



In my first ever game review podcast I am going to review three of the biggest games this year and a couple other games I really liked and give my first, on a scale of 1-10, Gamers Over50 ratings!

Need a movie recommendation for this years Halloween or Samhain? Well I have a set of non-slasher type movies, Freddy do not visit me tonight, you either Michael or Jason, we already have a goalie for street hockey! I chose some of my favorite all time supernatural and monster movies that are classics and some that may not be considered classics but I love them! Some of the greatest actors and directors are in here too!

Halloween is not just about candy, but it has some really historical references attached to it that have been based on the lore and traditional stories around the Supernatural. The Supernatural is a great genre for everything not 100% SciFi or Fantasy but based in fiction or partial fact, and it's soooo cool! In this podcast I go in to that genre with one particular universe that has crossed gaming, entertainment, literature, LARPing and many other areas!
