005: Can You Turn On Your Xbox?

April 23rd, 2018

It’s a big week on Gamer Friends, with our second-ever guest, SaraWithAStar! Big Nkrumah  and AudioNerd64 chat it up with Sara about our recent weekend with her Nintendo Switch and a bunch of Switch-exclusive games, such as Mario Kart, Breath of the Wild, and Big Nkrumah’s new favorite party game, Overcooked.

Before they get to chatting with Sara, your Gamer Friends spend some time “Logging On” with an outsider’s perspective on God of War’s triumphant return and everyone’s favorite new battle royale adventure, Radical Heights. We also chat about Monster Hunter’s new dragon, the upcoming Cities: Skylines expansion, Destiny 2: Warmind’s official announcement, the launch of Nintendo Labo, and some mild groveling from Anthem’s development team.

“These Past Two Weeks in Nerdom,” we give a spoilery recap of Ready Player One and brush on the topic of gaming and pop culture as identites, and what that might mean for a dystopian future like the one depicted in the movie. At 00:42:01 the spoilers end and the boys hype Infinity War’s impending release, our first bonus episode (a spoilercast all about the MCU), and the ongoing Universal FanCon catastrophe.

If you’re a fan of the show, please consider writing a review of Gamer Friends on your platform choice and telling your friends! We really appreciate all of the love and support, and we’ll catch you again next week!
