Dan has some shiny new DM-ing experience to bring to the table, Tony is enjoying NiER, Alex is eating with his Titanium Spork, and everyone has a lot to say on the new PS5 UI demo. Also featured is a discussion on what makes a good boss battle, how Death Stranding was a missed opportunity, and lots of advice on working with coworkers, both online and off.

The Pixel Boys reminisce about the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series, dump on some other titles (Marvel’s Avengers, Dead Space), discuss the 1985 movie Clue, and give summative thoughts on Majora’s Mask and Among Us. Also co-op geese, Remote Play Together, Amazon Luna (and Stadia, I guess), and more.

Games, ethics, aesthetics, and more! Tony did his first playthrough of Ocarina of Time, Alex finished RE2 Remake, Dan reminisces on the joys of Kirby Crystal Shards, and many more games are discussed. Tony discusses the PC he just built while Alex and Dan do their best to slow his roll. Finally, a discussion of Aristotelian ethics, because Alex is worried if we don’t find objective truths we’ll have nothing to talk about on the show.

This week Pixel Noise swings into TV talk primarily. Alex tried a bunch of shows and is concerned about authenticity in character development. Also more follow up on work/play divide working at home, thoughts on Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and the pitfalls of nostalgia.

An hour of what makes us different as people, followed by another couple on Ghost of Tsushima, Amnesia and horror games in general, and our different feelings on streaming.

Criticisms (and spoilers) of TLOU II criticisms abound! Dan gives his first impressions on Ghost of Tsushima and we make Alex defend his decision not to try it. This leads to a deep dive on the value of trying new things, the definition of genre, and the value of physical games. Oh, and we played Fortnite together for the first time.

It’s been a HUGE week for Pixel Noise, we tried D&D, cleared the follow up decks (Portal 2 Co-Op, The Binding of Isaac, Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes), reflect on the Celeste Moonberry cup (in which Alex WON a speedrace), and, of course, begin our review of The Last of Us Part II with a spoiler-free review, and then spoiler-slot for the first 10 hours (chapter markers provided in your podcast app). More to come...

The Pixel Noise Boys talk about all the latest PS5 news from June 11th, 2020! Be sure to join us for the big The Last of Us Part II release party this Friday on Twitch!

What does the ideal Twitch streamer look like? What’s the difference between Emotes and Emoji? How does Mega Crit use big data to make an awesome card game? What is a AAA game anyway? The answers to these questions and many more, right here on the Pixel Noise podcast.

We’re officially Twitch Affiliates! Moving up in the world, speedrunning, what we’re streaming, what TV we’re watching, what cool indie music we’re listening to, Celeste and Antichamber reviews, and, of course, more Slay the Spire.

Trophies, achievements, and reminiscing, oh my! We talk about Slay the Spire (more), the new Deltarune trailers, and some of our favorite games and gaming moments.

Settlers of Catan, Sheriff of Nottingham, Cards Against Humanity, Slay the Spire, Coffee Talk, and way too much TV and politics talk. Sorry.

It’s a brand new decade (some say) and in this one, in addition to naming our games of the decade, the guys talk about movies, the new PN Death Stranding video review, Sim games, Fortnite(!), and follow up on The Game Awards.

Pokémon Sword & Shield, Death Stranding, a little Stadia, Mario Maker 2, and even ERB. Also, a new idle clicker appears! Finally, a big oof about Life is Strange 2. Oh, and GOTY predictions.
