Description
Releasing weekly podcasts since 2008, GameHounds brings you news, reviews, and commentary on what's going on in the video-game industry. Nick Dinicola and Edie Sellers dig deep into the important news with unique and sometimes hilarious perspectives, and they aren't afraid to argue their unique perspectives. This show is for mature audiences, as both Edie and Nick are big, fat pottymouths. Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/V6RGHdynEQ or watch us do the show live: https://www.twitch.tv/thegamehounds

Edie's solo this week for a short show, but she had to come on and talk about Microsoft's rumored new demands for XBox profitability... and how it seems to confirm what she suggested last week: Phil Spencer is in TROUBLE.
We keep it short today, hitting news from last week's Gamescom and pre-game the PAX show next week.
So many announcements! Edie and Nick give their overview of all the announcements so far, including Dragon Age, Kingdom Come 2, and GEARS!!!!!!!!!!!
Streamed live on Oct 1, 2023 — Last Week for Edie!!! Next week: Nick gets spooky.
Stuff is looking bad at the green monster. Hardware sales down. Software sales down. Unrealistic revenue goals not only missed, they weren't even in the ballpark of profitable. Edie has a frightening prediction no one hopes come true. She and Nick review Iron Lung (the game... the movie is next week), as well as covering news, including how Jeffrey Epstein got banned from XBox live, and Edie's surprising realtion to the revelation that there's FNAF "corn."
Edie and Nick finally agree! Using AI for NPCs is just a bad idea. Doesn't mean anyone is listening, including XBox. We discuss the Developer Direct reveal of Fable and how having a "massive world" populated by 100% interactable NPCs is just... too much! We also discuss the restructuring of Ubisoft, which only promises to mean studio sell-offs and closures, and we review "Mandgragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree."
This could finally be it. This death rivals some of the most overplayed, overly dramatic, drawn out deaths in cinema. Finally, it seems, GameStop won't be pulled back from the brink by Reddit stock-shorting groups; it may have finally drawn its last breath and gone to sing with the choir invisible. Oh... but don't worry. The Crypto Bro who took over as CEO is getting $35 million as an exit bonus. Also, XBox Developers Direct is coming next week.

Nick and Edie start off the year without a bang... Because we're old, we're tired, and we gotta go back to work tomorrow and it SUCKS. Edie finally tries Where Winds Meet and Clair Obscure: Expedition 33. Also, DEV FIGHT! DEV FIGHT! Everyone gather 'round to hear a couple devs go OG schoolyard on each other.

Nick's in Florida. Edie's in a remote location. But we're bringing you a show, anyway, because you fu**ers deserve it. We talk the death of CoD founder in a fiery car crash, 007 First Light delay, and how Marathon has been re-revealed and it's not looking awful, or so we've heard.
Final show before Christmas, and Nick and Edie are already starting to wrap the year up. We talk the scary decline in hardware and the increase in software sales, Where Winds Meet's content bonanza, and what's up with the Intergalactic demo. Join our Discord server and talk to us all week long: https://discord.gg/JB5R4DD3e6
It's our first show back from Thanksgiving, and man, did Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 dominated the Game Awards? Did the hype overshadow rightly or wrongly? Join our Discord and chat with us all the time: https://discord.gg/JB5R4DD3e6
Wow. Eight hundred episodes. When Hawkes and Edie sat down in front of a mic 17 years ago, did they even fathom that the show would still be around for 800 episodes? Nope. We don't have a complete reunion, but close. Past and present GameHounds hosts, including Holy Goalie, Mr. Maynard, and Creation Chaos join us. Commander Tim had a family emergency and couldn't make it. We will catch up and also talk news, including new developments in the Steam Machine pricing.

Something strange is afoot at the "Circle U." And is Crystal Dynamics about to shutter? Nick and Edie chat the news.
We are back. Nick is married. We are now back in game mode, and we're changing our showtimes (due to popular demand). Also! We have a new time for recording. We're now recording our shows on Sundays at noon Pacific Time or 3pm for your East Coast crew. This should make it easier to join us live on Youtube or Twitch. C'mon by! We'd love to see you.
Do we have hints that Nick may win the ROG Ally X bet? Mayyyybeeee....
Edie has a date tonight! So we gotta keep the show fun-sized. Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/V6RGHdynEQ
We're back from Seattle, and while we were away, the gaming news kept going. Call of Duty getting the movie treatment (and Spielberg is NOT directing it, either), Fireaxis cans employees after releasing the most-successful Civ game to date, former Bethesda boss doesn't have nice things to say about Game Pass, and Activision backs off of Carry Forward feature after mass backlash.
Now we switch to hardware! Nick talks with Tom Morgan, Senior Developer for G'AIM'E, about their new lightgun for use with shooters, in this case demoed on Timecrisis, that allows you to very accurately target and hit using concoles and modern TVs. It's complicated and technical, but Nick says it's works really surprisingly well.
On this final day of PAX 2025, Nick chats with Tylor Whitney, narrative lead on Aether and Iron, a narrative-based RPG with turn-based tactics set in a gritty noir style.
Edie chats Kamila Zielinska, head of publishing for Ancient Forge studios, about their upcoming hand-drawn hotel-management game, Hotel Galactic, a gorgeous cozy title that evokes Miasaki and Studio Ghibli in its style and story.
