The Giant Beastcast

What a week! We've got some Mass Effect: Andromeda news, that new Overwatch character, and PlayStation 4 Pro hitting the streets. In these uncertain times, there are only two constants left in the world. The Giant Beastcast and AMAZING PR campaigns.

We're Bakalar and we've got plenty to talk including the PS4 Pro lineup, a tiny NES, bad PR campaigns, Overwatch mistakes, bowties, and a new Sonic movie?

Jeff Gerstmann joins us to talk about the the past, present, and future of reviewing games. Take a wonderful, historical tour with us as we ponder what the next years might bring. We also share some thoughts on Battlefield 1, Titanfall 2, Civ VI, Hololens, and more!

We bring Waypoint's own Austin Walker to clear up the differences between Will Smith's Hitch and Nintendo's Switch. We also talk Red Dead, Battlefield 1, Gonner, and Civ 6 as well as send our best wishes and a "thank you" to United Front Games.

We return to the biggest question of our time: Who would you recast for the Addams Family? We also talk about other stuff like Mafia III, Galaxy phones melting, Comic Con, Steam Dev Days, Star Citizen, your emails, and much more!

We've got a huge block of PlayStation VR to talk about as the virtual reality wars... never really happen? I don't know, it's all strange. There's also the news of stuff going sideways with Kerbal development, Beyond Good & Evil 2 "claiming" to be real, and Voodoo Vince is coming back. What a time! Oh, and who should play Gomez Addams in an Addams Family remake?

Ubisoft is in the news this week as it survives hostile takeovers, takes over a mobile publisher, and overtakes the rumor mill. We also talk about Palmer's exploits, the state of Virginia, Event(0), and we answer your burning questions!

Jeff Bakalar returns from beautiful Italia and he shares his thoughts on what's going on with all these crazy consoles. We also talk about flight sticks, Hello Games, how wet BioShock should be, and we say ciao to Battle.net.

Danielle Riendeau joins us to talk about actual video games! Finally! We go into why it's hard to tell compelling stories in games, the navigating into the current console landscape, the hits from TGS, and the perfect taco.

The English are coming and they want Matt Pascual back. Before he leaves our shores though, he'll join us to talk about all that Sony news, our PAX West experiences, Interplay's boot sale, and Nintendo's latest mobile efforts.

We're joined by the world's foremost comedy ursine Pat Baer to check in on Pokémon Go, Hearthstone, and EVE Online. We also try to name a dog, uncover our PAX plans, and debate what it means when Carnival Games comes to your platform.

It's number 66, the number of the Beastcast! We talk about how everything around us is changing and how we are all outdated, and how the world is a vampire sent to drain, and also wrestling. Oh yeah, and Eddie Vedder, PlayStation, and Allison Road?

Metal Gear returns from the dead, or maybe it's back from another dimension? We've also got some closing thoughts on No Man's Sky, more reasons why Dota 2 will ruin your life, and a unanimous consensus that not respecting Queen should be against the law.

Where to begin...? Austin Walker. No Man's Sky. Mafia III. Taylor Swift. Carbon Dioxide. The Witcher 3. Quantum Break. Cool Dudes? Garbage Plates. Trent Reznor. Science. Complex Motives.

Dan Ryckert drops into the rotating chair to discuss such fine video game related topics as highway cheese, murder parks, and Abzu. We also get into Telltale's Batman, Escape Rooms, and toilets. Join us!

From Pokémon to more NX rumors, Nintendo is the talk of the town this week. We've also got our impressions of Headlander, Quadrilateral Cowboy, and We Happy Few as well the worst phrase ever uttered to another human.

This week the Beastcast tackles the toughest topics facing us today, like video games on sports television, sports video games on icy surfaces, and whether or not it is ethical to assassinate Gary Busey (in a video game).

It's Go time! Whether you're looking for a tiny NES, a big scandal, or a medium-sized chunk of time talking about Pokemon... we've got you covered! Take comfort in listening to the Greenest podcast on the Internet.

We're technically on vacation but that won't stop us from spending ridiculous amounts of time talking about ghosts, Evolve, Project Venture, and of course... Magic: The Gathering.

Jeff returns from his virtual Ghostbusting, we go deep on Inside, talk about remastering games, releasing finished games, and the sadness and corruption spreading through The Sims 2.

We quickly look back on E3 2016 and then look forward to this summer's new releases. Then we look WAY back to wish the N64 a happy birthday before settling back into the present to wish Austin all the best on his next adventure.

It's the end of E3 2016 and we gather our sleepy gang together to say farewell and talk about some of our highlights.

Welcome to our awesome new set! We tackle some pre-E3 chatter, talk about Watch_Dogs 2, have our Overwatch update segment, listen to a bunch of music, yell for a little while, and answer your emails!

Nintendo adds a few more items to its E3 menu, there's talk of a Division movie with Jake Gylasjdfkjdhahaall, Alex played some Mirror's Edge Catalyst, and we've still got that Overwatch!
