Playable Press

Seeing as how we already did a mid-year review show it seemed like a good idea for us to cover the second half. Y'know, for completion's sake. Listen to Kamil and George discuss the games they played (and planned to play) in the second half of 2012.

No console lasts forever, and certain trends have begun to emerge from putting past generations of gaming hardware to pasture. Join George, Kamil, Carl, and Nick as they share their projections on what to expect for the gaming industry after the Wii U launch and into the impending new console generation.

Memories of the arcade vary from person to person, but for the most part we can agree that it was something completely unlike the stay-at-home gaming experience that's become the norm. Join Kamil and George - accompanied once again by En Nacht Media's Carl and for the first time by good friend and site supporter Nick - in a retrospective of what made the arcade special for each of us, what we think a generation of gamers growing up without arcades will miss out on, and Mega Man Xover. ...not sure how that last one got in there.

For you, the day this episode of Press Play graced your ears was the most important day of your life... but for us, it was Tuesday.

Several games have been released this year. George and Kamil have played some of them. Chronologically speaking this seemed like a good time to take a look back at them, so this episode is dedicated to deciding our game/s of the half-year.

It's the biggest event of the year in the gaming industry, bringing with it some of the biggest surprises, hopes, disappointments, and embarrassments; It's E3, and George and Kamil have a few things to say about what we did and didn't see this year.

It's a little later than expected, but we're finally back with another episode of Press Play. In this episode George and Kamil take off the nostalgia goggles and take a good look at what games have stood the test of time and why.

In this week's episode, George and Kamil discuss how certain developers have learned to work around - or actively utilize - the technological limitations of games and game systems while some others... haven't.
