The TouchArcade Show – An iPhone Games Podcast TouchArcade.com

I’m going to fire myself from writing these intros, since AI does it oh so well anyway. Here’s the AI synopsis of this week’s show, is it accurate? You’ll have to listen to find out! “Jared and Eli discussed personal fans, subscription services, and the reliability of product recommendations for their upcoming trip to Florida. They also explored new video games, the impact of social media on YouTube content creation, and the potential of a new mobile Pokemon game. Lastly, they discussed their experiences with the Assassin’s Creed game series, their collaborations with Apple Arcade, and the future of mobile gaming."

I also share my adventures with cheating in Fallout 3, and why using cheats or emulation hacks like fast-forwarding is totally OK when you’re old and have a family. We also get to listener emails that include topics like the Apple Vision Pro, PICO 8, the Evercade, and more. We finish things off with actual mobile gaming discussion with a handful of the hot stories from this past week. It’s a long-ish episode, enjoy!

This week’s podcast is a weird one. We enabled some AI thing on Zoom and it gave us an AI-generated summary of our entire show that is both shockingly accurate and wildly incorrect at times. I’m linking it in the Show Notes below if you want to take a gander at our AI-driven future or you just don’t want to listen to our voices this week! A huge bulk of this week’s show is dedicated to emulator talk, what with Delta arriving in such fine official form on iOS. We also hit on World of Goo 2‘s recent delay, the upcoming GUNCHO from Tinytouchtales, if No Man’s Sky will EVER actually come to iOS or not, some listener emails, and more.
