Are Backlogs A Bad Idea?

Épisode 2

vendredi 29 novembre 2024 • Durée 02:00:07

Are gaming backlogs a bad idea and a source of unnecessary stress? EposVox and I tackle this question in Episode 2 of the Dual Comm Podcast, diving into whether backlogs are helpful for staying organized or just another source of guilt. We also explore Sony’s PlayStation Mascot Problem, discussing what happened to beloved franchises like Crash Bandicoot, Sly Cooper, and Twisted Metal. Our conversation touches on holiday gaming memories, from unwrapping consoles like the PS3 and Xbox 360 to the cozy vibes of old Pokemon games. Later, we debate the value of PC setups versus consoles for chill gaming, share why firsthand experience matters when discussing games, and say a heartfelt goodbye to Battlefield 3 on Xbox 360 and PS3 as we reflect on its multiplayer legacy.

samedi 14 décembre 2024 • Durée 01:58:47

From Steam Winter Sale steals like Celeste and Mass Effect Legendary Edition to must-play Nintendo, PlayStation, and Xbox titles, we've got something for every gamer this season. We also tackle the concept of replay value: What makes a game worth revisiting, and how do we decide when it’s time for another run? Plus, we explore why more gamers are watching content about games rather than playing them and share thoughts on remasters done right (Legacy of Kain, anyone?). Finally, we discuss the collapse of xDefiant and whether free-to-play shooters can ever dethrone the big players. Join us for another chill discussion!

PSVR in 2025, Retro Gaming, and Why the Old Internet Was Better

Épisode 7

jeudi 27 février 2025 • Durée 01:33:09

In this episode of the Dual Comm Podcast, we dive into a stacked lineup of topics that blend nostalgia, modern gaming tech, and internet culture.

PSVR in 2025 – Trying PlayStation VR for the first time a decade late! Does it hold up, or does the novelty wear off? We break down the best games (Ace Combat 7, Astro Bot Rescue Mission, Wipeout Omega Collection) and whether VR still has a future.

Retro Gaming in 2025 – Playing PlayStation 1 & 2 on original hardware still feels amazing. We discuss scalers like the Framemeister, OSSC, and RetroTINK, and why retro gaming delivers a distraction-free experience that modern games often lack.

The Old Internet Was Better – Why does the internet feel so different now? We reflect on the pre-algorithm era, how online spaces used to be more personal and exploratory, and what changed around 2017-2018. Can we ever go back?

Gaming Feels Better When You Earn It – Shoutout to TheRetroDen for an amazing take: https://youtu.be/br7TF52W8TA?si=ETq_HeFdv37BHe5y. Gaming feels more rewarding when it’s treated as a break after real-life productivity. We discuss whether gaming sessions become more fulfilling when they’re earned instead of being mindless escapism.

Join us for another deep dive into gaming, tech, and internet culture. Let us know your thoughts in the comments—do you still enjoy retro gaming? Is VR the future or a gimmick? And do you miss the old internet?

The Switch 2, $80 Games, and Growing Up as a Gamer

Épisode 8

jeudi 3 avril 2025 • Durée 01:34:41

The Nintendo Switch 2 has finally been revealed, and we’ve got thoughts—on the hardware, the price point, and the $80 games. In this episode, we break down what we know about the next generation of Nintendo’s console and how it fits into the current gaming landscape. We also explore the growing tension between modern gaming habits and real adult life. Are games too long now? Are we forcing ourselves to play out of guilt? And is there a better way to experience games in 2025—maybe by going back to the past? From retro gaming to emotional burnout, this episode is all about finding meaning and balance in a hobby we love. #gaming #gamingvideos

Expedition 33 and the Return of Amazing Games

Épisode 9

jeudi 1 mai 2025 • Durée 01:35:34

Expedition 33 genuinely reminded us why we love games — not because it's a massive AAA production, but because it has soul, smart systems, and feels like it was made by people who actually care. That kicked off a much bigger conversation: are we entering a quiet renaissance of great AA games?

In this episode, we talk about how mid-budget games like Expedition 33 are doing what the big-budget blockbusters often don’t. These are games that respect your time, play great out of the gate, and remind you what makes gaming fun in the first place.

We also look at how Game Pass, especially on PC, is quietly delivering some of the best value in gaming right now — from day-one drops like Indiana Jones and the Oblivion Remaster to upcoming hits like Doom: The Dark Ages. Xbox Series X, though? It might be feeling a little left behind.

The Dark Ages Of Console Gaming?

Épisode 10

mercredi 21 mai 2025 • Durée 01:36:16

Doom The Dark Ages looks great—but the way it’s being released tells us a lot about where console gaming is headed.

In this episode, we share our impressions of Doom's latest entry, the physical disc controversy, and how this all ties into the growing divide between PC and console ecosystems. We also break down why PC gaming in 2025 feels smarter than ever, the slow death of physical media (and who’s to blame), Xbox’s pricing moves, Nintendo’s new Switch terms, the rise of GameCube games on PC, and the future of game development.
