    There's ACTUALLY a lot of lore in The Sims.

This week, Jesse and Alex talk about all of the upcoming video game movie adaptations and pitch a few ideas of their own.

    I'm Always Aching for Something . . . Usually It's Games

    This week we're talking stocks, supply shortages, and some games we're playing that don't start with the letter "s". Here's the link to the Twitter thread explaining the Gamestop debacle with a helpful Target analogy! https://twitter.com/bust_magazine/status/1354879623839014913 Shift+Alt+Q is a multi-platform experience.

    The Fear Is Too Great for This Chicken

    Producer Andrea joins us at the top of this episode to talk the first few days of the Biden Administration.

    Unpacking the Fu€K#ry

    This week we talk our top games of 2020, our hopes for 2021, and the insurrection of the United States Government. This one starts out kind of intense. We recorded this at the end of last week, and we had a lot that couldn't go left unsaid. If you want to avoid discussions of the insurrection on the Capitol by white supremacists, you'll want to skip to minute thirteen. Shift+Alt+Q is a multi-platform experience.

    Upload Me to the Cloud

    Cybertwunk 2077

    Cyberpunk 2077 is having a rough go of it, and since we last talked with y'all, Sony's pulled it from the PlayStation Store and is offering refunds. And yes, the game has issues. Some of which, we've already talked about. Some, we could not have anticipated. We're talking the highs and lows of playing Cyberpunk 2077 so far. Shift+Alt+Q is a multi-platform experience.

    Cyberpunk 2077 Is Here . . . But Is It really?

    CW: We talk a lot about genitals in Cyberpunk 2077 in this one. If you want to avoid that conversation, you'll want to skip ahead starting at about 00:17:00 (Alex will pop in to let you know when it's time to scrub ahead), and you can jump back in with us at 00:25:10. We're bringing you this episode from a distant, more hopeful past: an entire week ago, when Cyberpunk 2077 was brand new, and we'd barely left the character creator. We've definitely got more to say now that we're a few more hours into the game, and we'll have that conversation with you in our regular weekly episode, but we wanted to share our early thoughts, too. It's been a journey already, folks. We also talk about The Game Awards.! Shift+Alt+Q is a multi-platform experience. Be sure to follow on YouTube, Twitter, and Twitch!
