    Patch Notes (Chaotically) Predicts The Game Awards!
    Dec 7 2023

    There are a lot of you seeing Patch Notes for the first time since we’ve moved to Substack. Patch Notes is our podcast, where we talk about games, talk about life, talk about movies and television shows so much that we should have a movie and television show podcast. (And we sometimes talk about the weather, because when you have people who live in Canada, Florida, North Dakota and Texas, that discussion can get wild.

    New Co-Host, Pokémon, Four Different Events and Utter Chaos
    Sep 25 2022

    This episode was INTERESTING. We welcomed our friend Robin to his first episode in chaotic fashion, talking about Pokémon, the last Nintendo Direct and Sony State of Play, a little Ubisoft and Disney Games Showcase before diving into what makes a great remake and Amanda and Robin’s hatred for the Uncharted movie. (Also: Real life is a Dark Souls-level boss.)
