plans to handle this move. I also touch upon some of my concerns with the growing trend of consolidation in the gaming industry. Lastly, I talk about Xbox Game Pass and what I believe it will become in the future, if these acquisitions continue.

67: 2021 Game Of The Year Special

Posted on February 2, 2022February 2, 2022 by gamepinions

In this episode, I go over all of our previous game of the year winners and then declare the winner for 2021. Admittedly, 2021 was pretty uneventful in the games department for me. In 2021 I focused on not spending money on a lot of new games and consoles, and instead started tackling my embarrassingly large backlog. While it was refreshing, I would definitely like to play more new releases this year. All that being said, while our game of the year may not have had a ton of competition, I don’t want to take away from how special it was/ is.

In this episode, Jon and I ramble on about our feelings on the latest installment in the Metroid franchise. For Jon, the long wait is finally over, after waiting years for a sequel to Metroid Fusion.

In this episode I briefly go over who I think won E3. I also go over Nintendo newest model in the Switch lineup: The OLED Model. While no matter what Nintendo did they were bound to face backlash of some sort, this newest upgrade is certainly a little confusing. TLDR: Everyone is upset and I am now upset in solidarity.

63: Sony Doesn’t Know When PS5 Shortages Will End

Posted on June 5, 2021 by gamepinions

In this episode of Gamepinions, I talk about God of War: Ragnarok’s delay and the fact that the game is now also coming to PlayStation 4. This could all be due to Covid, and I completely trust Santa Monica’s decision to delay the game. However, I think there could be for a different reason for this big decision.

Posted on March 5, 2021March 5, 2021 by gamepinions

In this episode we talk how I am okay with Breath of the Wild 2 being missing in action, as it quells some of my underlying concerns with the game. Nintendo did a great job with the original game, so they deserve credit for taking their time. We also talk about some Pokemon Legends as well.
