PSP #198: Talkin' TV with Almost the Last Man on Earth

In today's episode, Marc fools around with a bit of TV, from shows about superheroes to a modern day cowboy, all leading up to a show about the last man on earth who actually isn't the last man on earth so why is the show called The Last Man on Earth--I wouldn't be surprised if the characters in The Last Man on Earth soon find out everyone is still alive and just no longer living on the continent of North America 'cause why the hell not at this point. Anyway, if you're interested in hear some relatively spoiler-free TV-talk, this is the episode for you.

The Pixelated Sausage Podcast is Moving to Wednesdays

This will be short and quick, but I felt like Fridays were not the right days for the podcast with the most original title ever conceived, so I have decided to move the official release day of The Pixelated Sausage Podcast to Wednesdays. That said, y'all can look forward to--and I just realized next Wednesday is April 1st, but I promise this is no joke--hearing about Slender: The Arrival, The Last Man on Earth, and What We Do in the Shadows on the upcoming episode, so, if y'all have any questions about any of that jazz, leave a comment below, tweet at me, email me, or swipe right. Have a lovely weekend y'all.

Cheers.

PSP #197: Battlefield Hardlines, Project Spark, and a Broken Computer

In today's episode--one which almost didn't happen--Marc talks about how Battlefield Hardline is weird, how Tinder is even weirder, and how Project Spark still exists--yes, boys and girls, Project Spark is still very much so a thing--not to mention (as I mention) the computer issues that almost lead to no show at all. Given all the technical issues that almost killed the podcast before it even started, this week's episode turned out quite well; though, will y'all agree? Only time will tell. Does this smidgen of rhyming put you under my spell?

PSP #196: The Escapists Review

In today's episode--the first in what seems like forever ('cause it's been over six months!)--Marc returns with a review of The Escapists--a game all about breaking out of prison(s). Is The Escapists too much like prison, or is it so good it'll make you want to be imprisoned just so you can try your various plans in the real world? The only way to know for sure is by listening to this here brand new episode of The Pixelated Sasuage Podcast! (Even if I say this is the greatest game ever made, please don't do anything that leads to you ending up in prison; I can guarantee this game is nothing like a real prison, not that I know from experience...)

Review: Francis Drake | A Voyage Worth Repeating

When you first look at Francis Drake fully set up, the massive amount of beautiful components may make the game seem overwhelming. Don't be fooled; while there is a lot of deep strategy and interesting choices to be made, the gameplay is very straightforward.

In Francis Drake, players take turns advancing down the street of Plymouth, collecting various resources--like crew members, guns, trade goods, etc--you'll need in order to go on your voyage; however, once a player advances down the road, they cannot backtrack to a location they skipped--I really enjoy this aspect of the game. For example, if I desperately need to upgrade my ship from a frigate to a galleon and the Queen space is the only spot left to do so, I'll have a tough choice to make if she's a few locations down; do I skip over acquiring other resources I might need, or wait and hope the other players don't take the Queen before it gets back to my turn?
