Please, Nintendon’t become a mobile crapware peddler! This week,  mixed feelings about Nintendo’s recently announced mobile plans (and not much to say about the mysterious NX). Only time will tell, but the Pack opines in the meantime. Plus, life-or-death decisions in Gods Will Be Watching, falling in love with Code Name S.T.E.A.M., debating Hotline Miami 2‘s grand ambitions, and Ori and the Blind Forest‘s brutal beauty.
The Rumble Pack Posts
It’s time to get the band back together! This week, the Pack celebrates the big Rock Band 4 announcement, which suggests that the thousands of dollars invested in DLC won’t go to waste. Afterwards, Tom and Justin strut down The Order‘s werewolf runway, while Kaz hunts both of them on the OlliOlli 2 leaderboards. Plus, water cooler gaming and a brief, yet in-depth discussion of Flame Over. (But not really.)
The virtual reality Wars are nearly here! This week, the Pack talks about the Vive reveal, and how it will impact the already-crowded headset-thing landscape. Afterwards, some ghostly Monster Hunter4 tips, the Fallen London rabbit hole, chilling with Alto’s Adventure, and wondering how anyone sorts through ALL OF THESE GAMES.
Come on, get happy! This week, Kaz, McFadden and Justin start off talking about the lukewarm reception of The Order, which leads to a larger discussion about negativity within the gaming community. Is all hope lost? (No.) Afterwards, Justin explains why he’s fallen in love with Monster Hunter 4 and Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, while McFadden gives a shout out to iOS gem Combo Quest.
Majora’s Mask is back, which means it’s time to rehash old arguments about this divisive Zelda experiment. Justin and Tony duke it out while the moon looms ominously. Meanwhile, Kaz is battling Kevin Spacey in the Advanced Warfare campaign and Tom is rocking and socking Greek gods in Apotheon.
Club Nintendo, rest in piece. This week, the entire crew gathers to mourn the loss of their favorite junk peddler, even as it finally gives the United States Flipnote Studio 3D. Plus, touchscreen mashin’ in Tap Titans, talking to Dragon Age Inquisition muppets, Humble Bundle’s card game bonanza, flawed masterpiece Grim Fandango Remastered and an appreciation of the Air Buddies empire.
You think things were hectic when lots of people are on the podcast? Kaz, McFadden and Tony endeavor to prove you wrong! Tangents a plenty while the three attempt to discuss Titanfall and Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare well after their releases, a handful of iOS titles and a quick rundown of #IDARB.
And you thought the Amiibo were bad. This week, Justin delves into Disney Infinity 2.0, which is equal parts joyful pop culture mashup and shameless cash-grab, while the guys listen on in horror. Kaz and Tony enlist in Advanced Warfare, the Bloppiest game yet. And Neil can’t stay on the road in the next-gen port of Grand Theft Auto V. Also, Gravity Ghost is great.
Nintendo Direct time! Lots of New Nintendo 3DS (XL) news, but are the guys ready to make the upgrade? After discussing the big announcements, Justin delves into the Fantasy Life end game, Tony conquers the orcs in Shadow of Mordor and Kaz dabbles with the Halo 5 beta.
