PSP #400: Switching Things Up and Losing My Balls

On today's show, Marc celebrates 400 episodes of absolute nonsense by switching things up with more Switch talk than there's been in month, reviewing a handful of Nintendo Switch games, including Conga Master Party, Beach Buggy Racing, and Semispheres. In addition to an abundance of Switchyness, Marc also talks about Pinball FX3, the recent revamp or whatever you want to call it from Zen Studios and, big surprise, it's still as great as always, no, even greater. Anyway, something-something dancy and buggy, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly ballsy) show.

Anyway, that's it and that's all folks, and, if you're feeling extra generous, you can become a patron, donate a little something-something, or subscribe to show your support for the site, podcast(s), and all the ridiculous jazz we make over here at Pixelated Sausage. And don't forget, you can also support the site by shopping at Amazon if that's your jam--you can probably buy jam on Amazon too.

PSP #399: Distrusting Xbox Support and Bulletin Boards

On today's show, one episode away from #400, Marc talks about their most recent adventures at the dear ol' dentist's office, their highs and lows dealing with Xbox Support, and what it's like to wake up to the wonderful feeling of a bulletin board falling right onto their big Sicilian nose. After all that nonsense, they talk about a handful of games, including Distrust and Project Octopath Traveler. Anyway, something-something clever and funny, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly anime-free) show.

PSP #398: Strange Things Happen When Marc Tries to Stay on Topic

On today's show, Marc starts off as a human with a huge plan and then immediately throws that plan out the nonexistent window in favor of random Xbox One woes and then goes on an unplanned end-of-season review of a handful of summer anime, including Restaurant to Another World (Isekai Shokudou), Love and Lies (Koi to Uso), and Tsuredure Children (Tsurezure Children). After that, Marc barely talks about what they actually wanted to talk about: the wonderful Stranger Things (and other not-so-wonderful Netflix originals) Anyway, blah-blah-blah-blah-blah, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly strange) show.

PSP #397: Where Dreams Break and Genomes Get Evil

PSP #396: Speedrunning Through a Maize of Nonsense

On today's show, Marc starts off talking about creating choose-your-own-adventure-esque reviews and whether anyone would actually want to read a review structured in such a way—would you? Press "1" for yes and "2" for no (disclaimer: pressing "1" or "2" won't actually do anything...other than what pressing them always does. After that, Marc talks about Fortnite once again now that it's working (once again)—spoiler: they still don't love it—and then they move onto two very different (and one very weird) indies: Maize and SEUM: Speedrunners from Hell. Anyway, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly indie-rific) show.

PSP #395: Surfing on the Gridd and Other Such Nonsense

On today's show, Marc talks about a handful of indie games, from a little game about surfing to a top down shooter/tower defense hybrid to an arcade shooter with a pretty damn good synthwave soundtrack. Also, Marc talks about a few things they hate, including Fortnite, Restaurant to Another World (Isekai Shokudou), and oatmeal-fun fact: Marc actually only hates two of those things, can you guess which is the odd meal out...I mean, odd man out? Anyway, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly indie-rific) show.

PSP #394: The Town of Light and Mental Health

On today's show, Marc talks about their battles (those in the past and still ongoing) with mental illness and a game, The Town of Light, that shines a light on how those with mental illness were treated in the early twentieth century. In addition to that (rather heavy) topic, Marc also talks about the indie game, Ken Follett's The Pillars of the Earth, and one of Netflix's most recent original series, Atypical. Anyway, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly open) show. | P.S. From now until September 6, 2017, Take This and fellow mental health charities will receive 25% of the net receipts of each copy of The Town of Light, so if you're at all interested in the game, please pick up a copy sooner than later.

PSP #393: Where Netflix Fluxs Up Death Note

On today's show, Marc talks about Netflix's awful live-action adaptation of Death Note and why it isn't just a bad adaptation, but a bad movie in general. After that, Marc talks about some other Netflix originals, ranging in quality from great to okay to how the hell could you make something so bad with actors so good. And then (after watching my recently purchased copy of Dude, Where's My Car? on Blu-ray), Marc talks about a handful of indie games, including Caveman Warriors and Circuit Breakers. Anyway, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly how could you do something so terrible Netflix?!) show.

PSP #392: Becoming an Ex Xbox Insider

On today's incredibly weird, scatterbrained show, Marc talks about their recent scare with the Xbox Insider program and why they're finally deciding to part ways with the not-so-beneficial program. After that, Marc talks about two very different games: Victor Vran Overkill Edition, a great Diablo-esque game that's finally made its way to consoles, and Demetrios: The Big Cynical Adventure, a point-and-click adventure for fans of (current) Adam Sandler movies. Anyway, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly pooping on photocopiers) show.

PSP #391: Fencing My Way Through Nostalgic Nonsense

On today's show, Marc talks about just a wee bit of anime, having finally caught up with Sakura Quest, and then spends (almost) the rest of the show talking about games, from a return to form from Sega and Sonic to the disgustingly beautiful sequel to everyone's favorite fencing game that isn't Track & Field 2 (and a game where you can choose the size of your dong, too). Anyway, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly gross) show.
