Hair Of The Dogcast

The Dogcast always loves a party.  And this week we celebrate the birthday of one of our absolute favorite games of all time: Dark Souls!  Man, time sure flies when you're constantly preparing to die! From Software's masterpiece turned 10 years old this past week and couldn't help ourselves from participating in a bit of reminiscing and nostalgic gushing on Dark Souls (and the souls series), including the game's influence on us and how the game affected our lives.   So get ready to Praise the Sun...and pass the cake!

Ethan Winters is back!  Despite losing limb after limb and Chris thinking is just generally out of his element, he is going to save his daughter and be confused about it the entire time! The Raw Dogs have a bit of a gush fest on this game.  Not perfect by any means, but golly it is pretty fun!  Just wish it had Wesker!

...99 Podcasts of Beer (and Video Games) on the Wall!  The Dogcast crew is back this week to talk about a whole bunch o' goodness--including the recent Playstation Showcase, some juicy Headline News, and a great big look at the schedule of game releases coming out this holiday season.  Some takes may be HOT.  Please handle with care.   This episode is dedicated to Norm MacDonald.  RIP to a brilliant, genuine talent.

Video Game Emulation is something every gamer loves but they might be afraid to say it out loud in a court room. In this episode, we discuss the early beginnings of emulation, the explosion of NESticle and MAME, important court cases, and its importance in video game preservation.

Welcome to the next level!  The Dogcast is BACK for a whole new season, baby!   Summer camp is so over, and the whole gang has returned to the HOTDogcast studios to talk about what we did (or didn't do) this summer and recap some juicy news bits--including Gamescom announcements! We also toast the SNES on its recent 30th birthday, and wax philosophic about whether Rick Moranis deserves a spot in the next Death Stranding game.  And much more!

  The Raw Dogs are talking about Final Fantasy again! This time we discuss one of the most polarizing entries in the series, Final Fantasy 8.   Many people dislike the characters and the junction system, but is it secretly brilliant?  Is Squall a misunderstood character? How has the junction system aged? AND why does Pupu like elixirs?      

On our Summer Camp finale, the Dogcast crew is forced to answer randomly generated questions from algorithms mined from the depths of the internet!  No skipping allowed! Also, gather 'round and hear ye the legend of Doug Gruber!  We hope you enjoyed our summer series.  Stay tuned for Season 6 of The Dogcast coming soon! Contact Us!

2007 was truly one of the greatest years for video games.   So many franchises started this year: Bioshock, Assassin's Creed, Uncharted. We saw the releases of Mario Galaxy and Halo 3. And 2 Girls 1 Cup. And Keyboard Cat.   Write a review and make us all very happy :)

In our final episode of Indie Games Month, the Raw Dogs go deep on What Remains of Edith Finch and Kentucky Route Zero!  Dylan is right once again and Brad loves all of his recommendations. Why shouldn't you go on a date with a Finch?  Is the Zero just a flat circle?  And is all life meaningless so you should just get to work and deal with it? Some of these answers might be answered!  At the end of the episode, we have our list of Top 10 Indie Games of All Time! Thanks for tuning in and write a review.  Or not.  Just don't drink Hard Times Whiskey if a skeleton offers it to you.

Dogcast Summer Camp continues with the Quiz show of a lifetime!  This week the group is put to the test to see how much we know about gaming (well, mostly gaming) in the year each Dogcaster was born!  And you're invited to play along with us! From the pre-paleolithic Atari era of 1978 to the totally rad, MC-Hammer-balloon-pant Sega Genesis days of 1990, it's a no-holds-barred competition through the decades to see who will win one of Tom's precious beers!   Contact Us!
