Good morning gamers, and thanks for tuning in to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! A bit of a sad one this week, as we announce a hiatus from the show. Both of us are a little overwhelmed with life in general at the moment, and we want to make sure the podcast is the best it can be. To that end, we're taking a break. It's not a permanent departure, and we're hoping to come back strong soon! But in the meantime, enjoy our final episode for a while, as we talk about the Minecraft Farlands, a brand new Game Pass tier, and even get into a cool discussion about games with someone in our chat! Goodbye for now, and we'll catch you all soon!

Good morning gamers, and thanks for tuning in to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! It's a radically different episode this week, as there's no roast or games. Well, there's one game, but it's not a video game. Wes is out this week for a performance, so Josh welcomes back Zealotos, aka the DM of the up-and-coming Gamer's Roast DND Podcast! Zeal gives us an inside look at the campaign he's got cooked up, and we hope you're hyped!

Note: Apologies for the clicking in Wes' audio this week. His headset took a tumble and is experiencing some casualties.
Good morning gamers, and thanks for joining us! This week, Wes has a coffee straight from local Shipshewana, and Josh has...a coffee tea bag? Strange, but true! Then, the guys take a look at another mysterious disappearance from the gaming world: a new third-party game engine called "The Machinery." Then, after 15 years in development hell, Beyond Good & Evil 2 has FINALLY hired a head writer. Does this mean Ubisoft is actually working on a sequel? Finally, the two take a look at Kotaku's comparison between Game Pass and the new PS Plus, and how each service might fit your gaming needs best.

Good morning gamers, and welcome to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! We've got a more focused episode this week...in fact, we only talk about one major story: the recent scrapping of studio Aspyr's work on the KOTOR remake. Is it cancelled, or merely postponed? Are we getting simply a remaster or a full-on remake? It's all up in the air right now, but hey, that won't stop us from giving our takes! Also, Wes goes on a rant about the Roblox "oof" death sound because that's all we needed in the world today. Thanks for joining us!

Good morning gamers, and welcome to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! Josh is finally back after a crazy couple weeks! This week, Wes tries out his brand new Aeropress by putting it to the ultimate test: making Starbucks coffee taste good. Is it up to the challenge? Meanwhile, Josh tries some Kauai coffee pods for a more tropical feel. Then, the guys talk about 2K Productions' mysterious de-listing of almost all of the WWE games from the Steam store, for apparently no reason. Then, we talk a little about our hopes and expectations for the upcoming Gotham Knights, before ending off with a ton of stuff Ubisoft is doing all at once. Thanks for joining us!

Good morning gamers, and welcome to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! Aaron's back again this week, since Josh wasn't able to record this week. We start out with a local coffee again: Chicory Cafe's English Toffee flavored roast from right here in South Bend, IN! Then, the guys talk a little about the recent Skate dataleak, and how the devs' promises of no loot boxes might not be holding true. Then, we talk about the crazy news of Steam integrated into Tesla cars, before we talk a little about how Elden Ring is still holding the title of best selling game of 2022, and how we think that will hold up for the rest of the year. And we end things off by talking about Sony's official acquisition of Bungie, and what that might mean for the former Halo devs in the future. Thanks for hanging with us!

Good morning gamers, and welcome to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! We're excited to have Aaron Piper back to the show as we have a VERY strange little episode. We start out with a review of some Folger's (spoiler alert: it's not great) and a local gas station coffee that turns out to be surprisingly decent. Then, we take a look at some strange news involving famed gaming director Hideo Kojima. Then, the guys talk about E3's potential comeback next year, before finishing off with what they've been playing this week. Thanks for tuning in!

Good morning gamers, and welcome to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! This week, it's a bit more news-heavy after last week's nostalgia trip. The guys review a RISE Brewing Co. latte and the return of the Frosty-cinno. Then, Wes takes a look at some Ubisoft behind the scenes coding that is equally fascinating and horrifying. Then, Josh talks a little about the future of Elden Ring. Then, the two discuss the upcoming Mario movie from Illumination before ending off with a quick factoid about Hideo Kojima's cancelled superhero game that may have just been a little too close for comfort with The Boys. Thanks for joining us!

Good morning gamers, and welcome back to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! Back to the grind this week, and it's a doozy of an episode.

Then, Josh talks a little about Xbox remaking some old gamer pictures, along with the nostalgia that brings. Finally, we talk a little about Sonic Frontiers' theorized story, and how MASSIVE Starfield is looking. This is a good one, so thanks for joining us!

Good morning gamers, and welcome to the Gamer's Roast Podcast! Josh is out this week finalizing his move, so Aaron is back on the show to talk about a whole heap of gaming news! We start out with a new coffee all the way from Milwaukee: the Pabst Family Coffee! Then, we take a look at some questionable Sony decisions regarding their brand-new PlayStation Plus service rebrand. Then, Capcom may have dropped some hints that they're reviving old franchises, so...more Megaman? Then we take a look at Nintendo's interesting solution to an epidemic of online cheaters as they prepare to release Splatoon 3. And finally, it looks like EA has been seeking a buyer recently...could this be the best move for the company? It's always a blast to have Aaron on the show, and this was a fun one!

Good morning gamers, and welcome to another episode of the Gamer's Roast Podcast! We've got a whole heap of news for you this week, but our main story is the recent announcement that Starfield has been delayed to early 2023. There's a lot of speculation that Xbox might be taking on more than they can handle with their recent set of studio acquisitions. In addition to all that, Wes has a roast on Meta for pointlessly blurring their brand-new VR headset, and the guys talk a little about a fascinating "de-make" of Portal that runs on, of all things, the N64. And finally, we talk a little bit about an IT professional that took things a little too personally. Thanks for tuning in!

Good morning gamers, and thanks for joining us for another episode of the Gamer's Roast Podcast! This week, we try two new coffees, the Simple Truth Organic Nitro Cold Brew and a Victor Allen Iced Latte! Then, we take a look at a BBC story about powder cocaine being smuggled through a Nespresso factory, giving a whole new meaning to "don't talk to me before I've had my coffee." And finally, we wrap up by talking about the recent Xbox service outage and EA's announcement of a new LOTR mobile game...although we may have gotten a bit off track in the meantime...hope you enjoy!

Then, Wes roasts Square Enix for their ridiculous fix to a crashing problem in the Avengers game. Then, the duo are baffled by a player's no damage run of Elden Ring, completed in just under three hours. Finally, we finish off by taking a look at some more Starfield screenshot leaks.
