The BitHUD Boys both share their thoughts on the new indie title Cult of the Lamb. Do they think it will be a cult classic or will they slaughter it? Then they put on their business insider hats to discuss Microsoft's accusations of Sony meddling with their Gamepass prospects. The hosts cap it off with a series of wholly original questions addressed to them and them alone.

After nearly a decade, talks of Grand Theft Auto 6 are starting to surface. But within that time, the social climate has changed, and Rockstar wants to make sure they adjust accordingly. Hence, Grand Theft Auto 6 aims not to "punch down". Dann and Thaddeus get into what this could possibly mean. 

Dann and Thaddeus discuss the current string of controversies surrounding the Unity engine and speculate on the engine's future.

The BitHUD Boys return to share their experience playing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredders Revenge, and on a more somber note,  they discuss the assassination of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and its unexpected connection to the videogame industry.

With the recent Nintendo Direct consisting primarily of ports, remakes, and remasters, Thaddeus and Dann speculate the direction Nintendo is taking with the switch five years into its lifespan.

With blistered fingers and bruised egos, Dann and Thaddeus team up to review Sifu (PS5).

It's here again! February 2022 is looking to be a good month for gamers. And with it looking like the year is really kicking off with its game launches, Dann and Thaddeus thought now would be better than ever to share their top games of 2022 and also give out special awards to games that left lasting Impressions over the last year.

Dann and Thaddeus aren't dead, they were just shellshocked after witnessing a catastrophic event unfold: The 2021 Game Awards. Luckily, the Earth-shattering news that Microsoft is making moves to buy Activision to the tune of $68.2 Billion managed to shake them out of their otherwise catatonic state. 

With The Game Awards functioning more and more as a platform to market upcoming games, and games-related media, Thaddeus and Dann dust off their crystal balls to guess what big announcements we will see at the 2021 show. What will we see? Augmented Reality Call of Duty? A Pac-Man Live-action film starring Chris Pratt?

It's the end of Nut November once again, and the bitHUD boys have a lot of game talk they need to just let loose.
