Game Bytes Show LeGrande Jolley

A sneaky surprise for the end of an old year and the beginning of the new! the GameBytes Show is back to catch up with how we've been and how video games have been. We discuss a couple of announcements from The Game Awards, including impressions on the new God of War Ragnarok DLC, "Valhalla." We each update on games we've played, our impression of Starfield and why it did not fare as well as we all expected, and we discuss at length whether video games are coming through an era where people have just gotten too much reward. Have a listen and tell us what YOU think!Intro: "Master Thyself" - God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla, by Bear McCrearyOutro: "God of Hope" - God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla, by Bear McCreary

We're back to show some signs of life through the discussion of video games! This episode sees LeGrande and Jeremy discussing the better and worse features of the newest mainline Final Fantasy entry, the sixteenth of the name. Jeremy expresses some doubt in the quality of FF16, but also in his own ability to judge it. LeGrande valiantly expresses its better qualities, and we range from the "vibe" of the game, the combat system, the characters and dialog, and how it feels to play the game. Join in with your ears and help us decide whether the game is a hit, a miss, or something in between!

Checking in with our new semi-infrequent schedule, and we just wanted you to know that VIDEO GAMES EXIST! This week, we talk a bit about that new Tears of the Kingdom thing you may have heard of, we enjoy a bit of the new L̶e̶g̶s̶ ̶T̶u̶s̶h̶ Arms Warrior class in World of Warcraft, and we discover that Final Fantasy XI is literally the friends you made along the way. Also Jeremy pulls out Golden Axe Beast Rider on the PS3 for some reason and inflicts it on all of us.
Plus, we discuss the "situation" at Xbox, with major games failing and fading, and a the major first-time endeavor of Starfield coming out soon. We cover some new releases and speed-run news to keep you apprised of the goings-on!

LeGrande and Jeremy team up for another power duo episode, and we log back into the game grid for some decetcive work. GAME decetcive work. This week, we decetc the Gameboy and its idiosyncrasies, but Metroid 2 is still pretty good. LeGrande flaunts his Overwatch 2 battle pass stats, and we spend like 15 minutes trying to figure out how to describe Everspace 2 and find out it's not that difficult after all. Jeremy decetcs Gamedec, and enjoys its Disco Elysium style, but is a bit skeptical that Warsaw is the dystopian megalith city of our future.
We flaunt our Leaked Destiny 2 Guns segment at the law. We will not be bullied. But other people will, and they show up in the news speedrun this week. Lots of good stuff in here, come and get it!

This week, the guys give their unbiased and unfettered opinions of the recent Super Mario movie... and keep doing it. Eventually, we get to talking about some video games, and we start by dissecting and dunking on the new hero in Overwatch 2, but generally still enjoying it. We talk about the new post-apocalyptic player-created-dungeon-raid shooter Meet Your Maker, and consider the challenge and fun of asynchronously defeating your gene-coveting foes. Finally, we continue to dig... into news, new releases, and more! Plus we hit that super-speedy Speed Run before we hit the road for now!
