Recently we were contacted by an independent game developer from Adelaide, South Australia. Last year this dev was the target of an outrageous news report.
Outrageous for all the wrong reasons.
The Jimquisition applied more research, editing, production value, and talent to this story than Nine News Adelaide ever did.
Now a local TV news station gets to experience life on the other s...

There's too much sex for us to do, and clopping's just the start of it.
Elsewhere, Laura's discovery of Battle Chef Brigade is energetic, Gav goes back to Nier, and Jim reminds us of the virtues of Rayman Legends.
Oh and we had no idea what that Switch Direct was about!

I swear this is a real thing that is on the PlayStation Store. I promise you it has the nerve to charge $19.99.
Maybe I'm paranoid, but I'm starting to think this is an elaborate, industry-wide attempt to gaslight me.
That, and this might be a Spear of Destiny spiritual successor?

On this constructively critical Jimquisition, we explain how using pre-bought videogame assets isn't inherently wrong, and how they've been put to good use.
We also have a CASH CONTENT going on to reward anybody who can prove, without a shadow of a doubt, that talent is an asset.
(That's the name of an old Sparks song!)

*CORRECTION: For some reason I said 2K Games instead of Warner Bros. at one point. I blame these companies being so interchangeable. And the drugs.*
2017 had some absolute gems, but they were more than outnumbered by this year's horrors, stinkers, and utter flops.
From those games mutilated to earn their publishers cash unabound, to those that simply had no ta...

It's been a rough holiday. Family tragedy, pet worries, personal injuries. I wasn't going to do The MEDIOCRE Awards this year, but had a last-minute burst of willpower and got it done. Hope you like!
Tomorrow will be the big dance, of course. Keep an eye out for Monday's Shittiest Games list. Skeletor is back to curse the worst!
The gang discusses the ultimate Krampus power fantasy.
Elsewhere, we talk about Blossom Tales, PUBG, and Gorogoa!

This year, SIX games have been selected by your good ol' Jim Sterling as the finest clumps of interactive entertainment released this year.
Big and small, weird and wonderful, Jim Sterling presents the irrefutably BESTEST EVER games of the year... EVER!

We spend a lot of time talking about Xenoblade Chronicles 2 while Gav plays some Tomb Raider in 4K.
Also, what we're looking forward to in 2018.

The episode we all knew was coming. The Jimquisition at last smashes into the "It's Just Cosmetic" argument with a bulldozer.
Many will defend certain types of microtransaction and loot box by claiming if they sell only cosmetic DLC, it's fine. Cosmetics "don't affect gameplay" and therefore anything goes.
This is rubbish. Cosmetics absolutely impact gameplay, and to argue othe...

On this week's episode, we talk about that wacky Death Stranding trailer, and react IN REAL TIME to Patreon's surprise reversal.
Elsewhere, we chat about an old RPG, a less old RPG, and some other things!
2017-12-14 15:17:08 +0000 UTC View PostHello patrons,
So Patreon announced today it will not be rolling out its proposed fee changes and has posted a profuse apology for having its ridiculous and absurd idea. We were actually recording Podquisition at the time, so you can hear our real-time reaction tomorrow!
Anyway, just a note on what's going down. Basically it's business as usual... for the time being, anyway.

Yeah, it's alright. It's not Yooka-Laylee, and that's better than being Yooka-Laylee.

Any Valve-related game that isn't explicitly Half-Life 3 will ignite the Internet for days with insulted fury.
To save time and souls, The Jimquisition argues for acceptance and an overdue execution for Half-Life 3.

We discuss Xenoblade Chronicles 2, an unexpected Portal spin-off, and the tragedy of amiibo cereal.
2017-12-07 18:36:43 +0000 UTC View PostDear Patrons,
You may have already received an email from Patreon about this, but going forward they are changing the way payments are processed. In the past, you'd pledge your fee, and the money would have things like credit card fees and Patreon's cut taken out before it got sent onto the recipient.
As of this month, Patreon intends to give all creators a straight 95% cut of the money. ...
We actually sat through and commentated through this whole horrible trainwreck. What a treat.
What a goddamn treat.

Look, I enjoy Skyrim a hell of a lot. That's no secret. But there comes a time where every Skyrim fan has to admit, y'know, fuck it.

Hand of Fate 2. It's basically as good as Hand of Fate. The new twists are good, the old problems are a shame.

We've had much of 2017 to see what Steam Direct has done for Steam.
Since Steam Direct turned out to be a complete farce, it's safe to say it ain't done a lot. You need not take my word for it either.
Also, Sterdust accepts a challenge from Pro Wrestling Ego.

It's Thanksgiving, which means very little is happening. However, since EA messed up loot boxes so royally, we have much to discuss there.
Also, the FCC is rubbish, Skyrim's alright on Switch, and Gav likes the new Thor film.
