It’s been a month! We hope everyone has enjoyed their time with all of the great games that released this holiday.

Bungie has come a long way since their Halo days. Still, there is something familiar in the air in Destiny. This is the first of a four part series of episodes. There is no real structure here, just very long calls divided into four episodes.

In Episode 6 Caleb and Christy dig into Bungie's last game in the Halo Universe, Halo: Reach. A doomed tale about sacrifice and the legacy of Reach, humanity's last bastion before Earth.

In Episode 5 Caleb and Christy dig into Bungie's first departure from the Master Chief, the stylish and moody Halo ODST. Where the previous games focused on the larger than life Spartan, ODST focuses on regular people. It also plops you into a hub world and lets you explore freely. The cast is also incredible.

It is finally here! The Season One finale of ProcGens is here folks. This one is very special to @LubWub and @CalamityXTJane. A little more than a year ago Caleb’s grandfather, Christy’s husband, passed away unexpectedly. As the doctors were transitioning him between floors in the ICU, our two hosts took a moment to distract themselves with what they assumed would be a fun, quirky mobile game. Yet upon completing Florence, they realized that what they had experienced was far more important.Join them on the season finale as they talk about this experience, how it has impacted their lives in the days and months following, and how games have always found a way to strike deeper chords with our family clan.This episode includes a reading of Florence and the Death of my GrandfatherYou can listen to Procedural Generations on Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, and soon iTunes (waiting for approval still…).

This one is a little late in the tube, sorry about that, but episode 6 of #ProcGens is finally here! We have finished going through the Mass Effect titles, games that we loved so much. Now it is time to turn our focus to Anthem, the most recent - and perhaps most maligned - release from developer BioWare. @CalamityXTJane and @LubWub both played Anthem. They wanted to give it a chance. But something about it just felt so…un-BioWare.Tune in this week as they talk about why Anthem felt so bad, whether or not they think it will ever recover, and what we want to see BioWare do in the future.You can listen to Procedural Generations on Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, and soon iTunes (waiting for approval still…).

Mass Effect 3 was…divisive. The culmination of a trilogy, it had a lot to tie up. Many weren’t pleased with the ending. On this episode of #ProcGens Caleb (@LubWub) and Christy (@CalamityXTJane) discuss how they felt wrapping up Commander Shepard’s story. The good and the bad, the heart breaking and the endearing.We talk about what it was like racing against time to save the galaxy, how the Mass Effect 3 helped us deal with trauma in our real lives, partying with all of our friends in the Citadel DLC, and the Indoctrination Theory.You can listen to Procedural Generations on Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, and soon iTunes (waiting for approval still…).

Mass Effect 2 is widely agreed upon as one of the best games released in the last console generation. For @CalamityXTJane it was her first journey into the @masseffect series. That first taste would create a love for a deep and lore filled universe. This week on #ProcGens, Caleb (@LubWub) and Christy talk about how how much they loved the follow up to Mass Effect.We talk about earning your team’s loyalty, learning to use our Biotic powers, running the suicide mission, and the myriad of wonderful characters we met along the way.You can listen to Procedural Generations on Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, and soon iTunes (waiting for approval still…).

In this episode of #ProcGens Caleb (@LubWub) and Christy (@CalamityXTJane) dive into the game that started it all: Mass Effect. The Mass Effect series holds a very special place in our family’s heart. The first title is where it started for most of us, but it is obviously where the universe started.We remember what it was like to choose who lives and dies, how we tried to romance specific characters but accidentally romanced others, driving the Mako for hours, and discovering what it meant to have an impact in a whole new universe.You can listen to Procedural Generations on Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, and soon iTunes (waiting for approval still…).
