67: 2021 Game Of The Year Special
In this episode, I go over all of our previous game of the year winners and then declare the winner for 2021. Admittedly, 2021 was pretty uneventful in the games department for me. In 2021 I focused on not spending money on a lot of new games and consoles, and instead started tackling my embarrassingly large backlog. While it was refreshing, I would definitely like to play more new releases this year. All that being said, while our game of the year may not have had a ton of competition, I don't want to take away from how special it was/ is.

For me, this is closer to an introduction into the 2D Metroid series. How did each of us fare on our respective adventures? You will have to listen to find out.

64: Nintendo Switch OLED Model. The Name Says It All.
In this episode I briefly go over who I think won E3. I also go over Nintendo newest model in the Switch lineup: The OLED Model. While no matter what Nintendo did they were bound to face backlash of some sort, this newest upgrade is certainly a little confusing. TLDR: Everyone is upset and I am now upset in solidarity.

63: Sony Doesn’t Know When PS5 Shortages Will End
In this episode of Gamepinions, I talk about God of War: Ragnarok's delay and the fact that the game is now also coming to PlayStation 4. This could all be due to Covid, and I completely trust Santa Monica's decision to delay the game. However, I think there could be for a different reason for this big decision.

60: Breath Of The Wild 2 is MIA And That’s Okay
In this episode we talk how I am okay with Breath of the Wild 2 being missing in action, as it quells some of my underlying concerns with the game. Nintendo did a great job with the original game, so they deserve credit for taking their time. We also talk about some Pokemon Legends as well.

In this episode we talk about the new and exciting news that college football is coming back to EA's game lineup! The last college football game was NCAA 14 and that was back on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 days. While NCAA won't be making a return in a traditional sense, we are still excited about this step in the right direct towards that.

51: The Games Media, Smash Bros Community, And The Last Of Us 2
2020 has not been kind to anyone. This week I talk about all of the crazy things going on in gaming. Games media, select members of the Smash Bros community, and the Last of Us, have all been trending for all the wrong reasons. The Last of Us 2 is trending due to its developers and voice actors being the targets of death threats. The other two are much more complicated than that. I don't find these topics fun and look forward to going back to more light hearted content in the next episode. I feel like I wanted to give my opinion of these topics so I went ahead and bit the bullet.

50: 2020 Claims Mixer Too
2020 is turning out to be a really not so great year. At this point it has been easier to count what has gone right, instead of what has gone wrong. Unfortunately for Mixer streamers, Mixer is the most recent victim to 2020's wrath.
