The Moving Pixels Podcast Discusses ‘Tales from the Borderlands Episode 4’

September 11, 2017 | Filed under: External Sources, Recent Posts

This week we continue Telltale’s episodic foray into the Borderlands universe with episode 4. The game keeps getting better and better. We laugh. We cheer. We cry. The heist has got it all. You can find the podcast on PopMatters, SoundCloud, iTunes and through the RSS feed. “Catch a riiiiiiide!”

The Critical Distance Confab Minisodes Are Back

August 31, 2017 | Filed under: External Sources, Recent Posts

Yesterday, I published the first minisode in over a year for the Critical Distance Confab, the Critical Distance podcast. Instead of just advertising the fact that minisodes are back, I’d like to take this chance to go over the whole story behind them: the behind the scenes thinking that went …

The Moving Pixels Podcast Goes Crazy in ‘Knee Deep Episodes 2 and 3’

August 28, 2017 | Filed under: External Sources, Recent Posts

This week we finish up the swamp noir, theatrical play, adventure game Knee Deep with episodes 2 and 3. Can a game be so bad it’s good? I don’t know, but Knee Deep is definitely a game that’s so bad it’s interesting. I know the angry video game critic is …

Critical Distance Confab – The Critic and the Dragon

August 18, 2017 | Filed under: External Sources, Recent Posts

Joseph Anderson was one of the bigger YouTubers I managed to get for an interview. The larger one’s subscriber count, the harder it is to get a hold of them. (At least if you don’t already know them like I did with Chris Franklin.) So, I was really glad that …

Thoughts on Batman – The Telltale Series Episode 1

August 11, 2017 | Filed under: Game Essays, Recent Posts

After finishing the first episode of last year’s Telltale Batman game I was just gushing with observations, criticisms and other related thoughts. Instead of trying to pound them into a coherent essay (any one of these points could make an essay unto itself), I figured it would be more accurate …

The Moving Pixels Podcast Prepares for ‘Titanfall 2’

August 7, 2017 | Filed under: External Sources, Recent Posts

This week we welcome guest Max Bernard of ‘Great Levels in Gaming’ YouTube series to talk Titanfall 2. We take a break from the episodic games we’ve started to dive into one of the best shooters of last year, that statistically you haven’t played. It’s a masterclass of design and …

Moving Pixels Podcast: Tales from the Borderlands Episode 3 – Catch a Ride

July 31, 2017 | Filed under: External Sources, Recent Posts

This week we continue our drive through Telltale’s episodic adventure game, Tales from the Borderlands, with episode 3 “Catch a Ride.” Sorry about last week, there was a slight snafu hitting the Monday release date. Then then episode was supposed to go up mid-week last week, but that didn’t happen …

Critical Distance Confab – A Measured Response: Hbomb

July 19, 2017 | Filed under: External Sources, Recent Posts

A new interview on the Critical Distance Confab is up. This time with YouTube critic and vaudevillian Harry Brewis, also known as Hbomberguy. (I will never get tired of that moniker. YouTube Vaudevillian.) Proving once again that preparation and not being hocked up on cold medication makes for a better, …

The Moving Pixels Podcast Goes ‘Knee Deep’ in Swamp Noir

July 10, 2017 | Filed under: External Sources, Recent Posts

We begin another episodic adventure game to alternate between episodes of the podcast. We begin with episode 1 of Knee Deep. The episode is a bit more chaotic than usual, mostly because I don’t think any of us knew quite what to make of Knee Deep. It’s not a bad …

TGC Game of the Year 2016 Addendum

July 6, 2017 | Filed under: Game Issues, Recent Posts

I struggled a bit with my game of the year list, mainly because I was trying to squeeze more games than would fit. 15 games into 10 slots at final count. I debated whether I should increase the list to 15 to accommodate all the games I wanted to mention. …
