Episode 78 - The Big Game Review Chat - Pixel Parents Podcast
Description
This week, we’re diving into a topic that’s been bubbling for a while:
Do we still trust video game reviews?
From inflated scores to rushed embargo day hot takes, we’re asking what actually makes a good review, and whether we need to rethink how we consume them.
We also give our verdict on The Knightling, share our continued progress with Hollow Knight Silksong, and talk about how it feels to sit with a game for longer than the review cycle demands.
And in this week’s Pixel Picks Showdown, we’re naming the Best Replayable Game — the ones you just keep coming back to, no matter how many years pass.
🎧 Still trust reviews? Or do you go full gut instinct? Let us know on BlueSky or by email!
