The GRcade Twitchcast Episode 29 - Talking Games and #BLM!


On the GRcade Twitchcast this week we have Jenuall, Pedz and Victor Mildew hosting along with newcomer Corazon De Leon.

The first port of call is talking about some of the games that we have played and Cora starts with Resident Evil 6 chat and the chat revolves around how the game is, how it is compared to other Resident Evil Games and is it a good or bad game and some brief chat of the other games in the series.

Victor then talks about Assetto Corsa Competizione a Racing Game that is very much a sim and simulates the Blancpain GT3 Series and then Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition which is a game that a few people have played a little, or played the Wii version. The discussion here goes into the gameplay, music, the updated visuals and of course the voice acting.

Jenuall talks about briefly about Doom, the classic from the '90s and then he talks about Super Mario Maker 2 and the 'Are You A Master Mario Maker?' Jenuall talks about his experience with Mario Maker and how he;'s finding he AYAMMM? Competition.

Then, coming back to Cora he brings up Half-Life 2/The Orange Box and has recently played through Half-Life 2 and both episodes, having not really played them in the past. During this talk, Victor has to leave for his is 10 PM Dog Walking. Lastly, Wolfenstein is talked about.

The topics here shift from What we've played to what's happening in the news.

Well, first off there's the Sega Game Gear Micro. It's a tiny version of the Game Gear and doesn't really resonate with the hosts. Briefly touched upon is also Sega's Arcade Cloud service and a little chat about Arcade Games.

The last topic of conversion is the Black Lives Matter protests. The topic comes up due via Sony, Nintendo and Xbox showing support via Twitter, many things are brought up here including the question is it enough? This is a long conversation and is probably the most serious conversation that has been had on this podcast, even though this is a gaming podcast the guys personally felt that this was too big of a cause to not talking about it.
