Save Continue Podcast

This week, we talk about measuring expectations ahead of major game releases while also considering the accountability of both the industry as well as consumers. Tom also gives his thoughts on the reveals of Gamescom.

No Man's Sky is officially out and we talk about our first impressions of the game. Also, we discuss the language of video games and the many ways they communicate with the player.

This week, we're talking about what we've been playing! Monster Hunter Generations?! Telltale's Batman!? I AM SETSUNA!? We talk about the experiences we've had so far with these games and what we're looking forward to.

We're talking about VR again! Also, what if Nintendo entered the VR arena? Would they be able to escape the shadow of the Virtual Boy? New experiences certainly abound for the rest of 2016 through 2017, but will any of them leave a lasting impression?

With the launch of Nintendo NX looming ever closer, the crew sits down to talk about their hopes for the console, the expectations set forth by its predecessors, and what a successful launch means for Nintendo's future. (This episode was recorded just before the recent rumors...)

This week the crew sits down to talk about the joys and challenges of video game emulation, everything from classic 8-bit emulation up to the 32 and 64 bit eras. Discussion is had about the archival of video games as well as about ways to successfully monetize emulated titles. This episode of the Save/Continue Podcast was taped in front of a live studio audience.

This week, Ryan laments the lack of local multiplayer experiences while Tom comforts him with the idea of a couch co-op resurgence. Shanee asks about instances of bad writing in video games.

I said the first 10 books are $50...I meant $150..sorry-Tommy

This week, Tom talks about his frustrations with video game crowdfunding. Shanee starts a conversation about platform-specific software exclusivity(she also has a hard time saying "exclusivity"). Ryan gets personal and asks what video games have helped the others through hard times.

In this special 2 hour episode, the crew discusses all of the major conferences that went down during E3. Everyone expresses their hopes as well as their concerns with what they learned during the show. EA is turning down profits, Ubisoft is letting you play on the snow, and Bethesda really wanted us to get a good look at Dishonored 2. There's a lot to talk about this week.
