Transcribe →Pixel Pints - 2024 Game of The Game Awards
Dec 7, 202402:09:39Tap to summarizeWe are back to go through The Game Awards for 2024. Including the important stuff like the colour of #geoffkeighley suit. And NO Shadow of the Erd Tree shouldn't be up for awards. It's DLC not a game, FFS!

Transcribe →Why Expecting All RPGS to be Baldur's Gate 3 is Stupid
Aug 23, 202301:01:29Tap to summarizeThis week we talk about the week's BIG story of all RPGs having to live up to the stratospheric standards of the best video game EVER (not called Zelda), Baldur's Gate 3. Is it a non-story needed to fill a quiet time in the games industry? Are media outlets unreasonable to expect "all" RPGs to aspire to deliver to the Baldur's Gate 3 standard? Should we expect this from "all" game developers? Follow us @pixel_pints on Twitter and @PixelPintsPod on Instagram

Transcribe →Pixel Pints - Accessibility Standards as Standard
Jul 24, 202301:11:39Tap to summarizeThis time round, given the lack of accessibility options in Starfield and based on the tiny text settings in some games Keith has been playing, we talk about what settings should be standardised across all Triple AAA games.

Transcribe →Pixel Pints - Do modern games hold our hands too much?
Jul 12, 202301:16:19Tap to summarizeDo game designers think we are more stupid than we used to be? This week Berkough wants to talk about modern game design being too involved in puzzle solving.

Transcribe →Pixel Pints - Gaming Disaster Do Overs
Jul 3, 202301:28:31Tap to summarizeThis week Evan isn't on but we steal his suggestion for a topic. We go through games that were a commercial and/or critical disaster and suggest how they could have been avoided. Can you guess what we might stop from turning into a 'live service'?

Jun 25, 202301:27:35Tap to summarizeThis week it's Matt's birthday and will it break the Pixel Pints Birthday Curse of the stream crashing? We talk about video game remakes. Are they necessary for creators to go back to remake or reimagine old IP? Are there too many? Which one have done it right and which haven't. Plus what remakes we'd like to see. We also troll Evan for dressing like he's 19 again. Follow us on Twitter @Pixel_Pints and on Instagram @PixelPintsPod Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/pixelpints
