Counter-Strike, GDC, and Tax Season: 8 Bits 100 (03.24.23)
Did I ever think I would producer 100 episodes of my news show? No, never.
Am I glad I did? Very yes.
Time for some news. -

Elden Ring stands as my favorite game of 2022 and going back to the Lands Between for another adventure sound incredibly fun. I'm excited to see what lies in the shadow of the erdtree.

Mortal Kombat 12, State of Play, and EVO 2023: 8 Bits (02.24.23)
Few fighting games do single player modes like Mortal Kombat. I have never been the biggest MK fan, but after playing through the single player campaign alongside a friend in college, Mortal Kombat X sold me on the series story and lore. MK11 further dug me in with all the cinematics and engrossing story. It's campy and ridiculous, but its a good kind of campy and ridiculous. Go play Mortal Kombat.
Oh, and news! -
Game Pass, The Voice of AI, and Tetris: 8 Bits (02.17.23)
More games should end in a way where, if the original version is going away, then the game can be preserved by fans for years to come. I'm a big proponent for preservation and, considering how lots of games seem to be ending recently, it's nice that companies are putting in the effort for their work to exist well into the future.
Oh yeah, and news. -
Nintendo Direct, Activision Blizzard, and The Grammys: 8 Bits (02.10.23)
The first ever video game song to receive a Grammy was the song Baba Yetu composed by Christopher Tin as the theme for Civilization 4 on 2011, though that was before there was an official category for video game music. I'm glad to see who gets nominated next year. Because of the Grammy cut-off window being the end of September, Bear McCreary received his nomination for Call of Duty, but I expect to see another for God of War next year.
Oh, and news!
