Arcade REBOOTED! Featuring Summer Games Fest, Halo, and Mergers and Acquisitions, oh my! - Renegade Arcade #24
Welcome to yet another overdue episode of the Renegade Arcade! After 8 months, the Podcast for the Players has returned! Neoplasmic, Organoid Zero, Bioshocker, and The Director reunite to discuss the gaming news we missed out on, along with our favorite games of 2021! We review Halo Infinite and the Paramount Plus series, and we talk about what we want to see at not-E3—I mean, Summer Game Fest! Hit that play button!
Hey, everyone! Neoplasmic (aka Keona) here. It’s been a good long while since I’ve posted anything to this wonderful website, but I needed to do so this time, because it’s been such a crazy year since I was last here. (See? I’m rhyming. That’s how nuts I’ve become.) Anyway, since I finally received my PS5—which was a digital console, because I couldn’t find a disc-based one at the moment of purchase, but hey, it serves its purpose—I actually took a nasty fall and broke my right kneecap in half (literally split the patella in two), so I’ve been even MORE inactive since then. I had to spend a whole bunch of money on surgery and am still in recovery due to the injury, so that’s why Arcade has been gone for a long time, and it’s also why I haven’t been around much since then.
But I digress, because we’re here to talk about video games! I’ve genuinely missed discussing the ins and outs of the industry with Brock, Tyler, and Josh (and everyone else who’s been part of our humble endeavor), so getting back in the podcasting seat with them was a lot of fun! We talk about our favorite games of 2021, our take on the mergers and acquisitions of several studios and development teams by other, larger corporations, and we deliver our verdict on both Halo Infinite and the Halo TV series, now streaming on Paramount Plus! We have a ton of stuff to cover, so please hit that play button and remember to like and share our content! Oh, and if you’d like to join in on the discussion, leave a comment below and follow us on social media!
Welcome to our Summer Games Fest 2023 wrap up special! Neoplasmic and Organoid Zero (Keona and Brock, respectively) break down their favorite game announcements and reminisce about the incredible titles shown off at “Keigh-3,” both of the triple-A and indie varieties! Enjoy the show! (Note: This audio is taken from a Twitch stream, so you may hear us interact with people in text chat as well.)
