Jul 29, 2022

Do you believe in life away from work? Does the thought of Big Fast Food playing tricks on your beverage expectations keep you up at night? Do you crave PINK JEEPS? Then stay a while and listen while Scott and Evan talk about the issues that matter to YOU. Scott’s got a playdate with the Playdate, and has been enjoying a smattering of games like Polygon, PUBG, Battlefield V, and is even becoming JRPG curious! Evan has the hot dish about Stray, and some very late and unsurprising takes about Jedi: Fallen Order. Oh and let’s talk about those PlayStation Plus tiers too because they are still ridiculous.

Won’t you also please join us for Quicksave Game Club! We’re kicking off the inaugural run with God of War (2018), wherein we’ll play through a set amount of story between each show and discuss our experiences each time we reconvene, to help prepare for God of War Ragnarok‘s release later this year!

Quicksave 052: Legally Distinct From Starfox

Jul 15, 2022

Gather round the ol’ Hifi with your two favorite dads for another riveting episode! The Summer of Scott continues, and Scott has been indulging in all of the perks that come with the unparalleled freedom of having the house all to yourself (Kevin McCallister style). We take a brief detour into Tinsel Town to chat about the horror and thriller films Scott’s been enjoying on Shudder (use promo code DEADMEATJAMES from some other person’s show for 30 days free I guess?), including a trio of Nic Cage films that’ll really bake your noodle.

Scott shares his impressions of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands (somewhat recently released on Steam), and Cuphead’s Delicious Last Course DLC (but do you see what they did there). Evan’s gaga for Ex-Zodiac, a low-poly 90s on-rails shooter that is about as close as you can get to Starfox without being Starfox, and a smattering of other games including Fortnite and Poinpy on iOS.

Quicksave 051: I’ve Got The Fattest Pipes

Jul 01, 2022

We still mean it, but what we also mean is that we’ll make the dang episodes when we can make ’em. Listen, we don’t always get to choose what obstacles we face in life, you know? Sometimes it’s a giant truck, sometimes it’s a really big rock, sometimes it’s a calendar. The good news is, usually you can push through! Oh, right, podcast description!

Scott’s been trying to escape The Cycle: Frontier, experiencing blistering speed and incredible opulence in F1 22, and an old, long forgotten part of the Quicksave house gets revisited as we discuss the tire fire that is MX vs ATV Legends. Evan is chasing the thrill of ever faster times times like a fiend in Neon White, and he will apologize to nobody for the game’s quality and notably high levels of horniness.
