Feel the music, ride the beat, hit the buttons, click, click, click, click, and Rez. That’s right, Alex had this idea a few weeks ago when Rock Band released it’s final song for the Rock Band store, but we didn’t do it for whatever reason. But now we did!

Has this been confirmed yet? I’m not even sure. We recorded this a few weeks ago on a rumor, but even if it’s not true yet I think it’s still apt. We love the DS and have been adopters since the beginning, so take a walk down memory lane with us won’t you? Join Alex and myself as we reminisce about the DS, LA Noire, Crysis 3, Surgery Simulator 2013, Super Monday Night Combat, Resident Evil 6, Thomas Was Alone, Guacamelee, Metal Gear Rising, Poker Night at the Inventory 2, the different between Steel Princess and Steal Princess and more on this episode of Griefed!

I had written a whole expose on PAX East and split it up over 6 album posts, the 6 albums I had been obsessively listening to over that weekend and since then. However I decided that, well, the story is kind of boring and it’s only interesting to Alex and myself. I listened to the album more than anything else that entire weekend. If I wasn’t listening to it, I was thinking about playing it. If I wasn’t playing it I was singing from it. If I wasn’t singing from it, I was singing Solsbury Hill by Peter Gabriel, for who the fuck knows why.
These California skate punk stoners put out the album I was waiting for anyone to put out when I was in High School. From the opening Trashmen reference of Cheap Beer to the “hidden” track at the end of Cocaine that I have been referring to as More Cocaine, this album is jovial, the way you feel when you’re 16. It’s the “fuck it nothing can happen to me attitude so I can do and say what I want” aspect that makes this album so fresh. They’re excited to be sharing with you, but they’re not interested in your shit either. Mantra: Wake Bake Skate.
Check out the song No Waves from their self titled debut album below. Also check out the rest of the album:
I could try to make this funny…. but it’s just sad. And true! We’re over ambitious and don’t realize how little time we have regardless. Actually, Alex and I barely talk about our short attention spans, that’s how short they are. Seriously. Join Alex and myself as we talk about our short attention spans when it comes to games, Bioshock: Infinite, Guacamelee, Bioshock, Mass Effect 3: Citadel, Organ Trail, Aliens: Colonial Marines, Papo y Yo, Gears of War: Judgement, Metal Gear Rising, Prison Architect, Warframe, Lego City: Undercover, Peekaboo, One Night, League of Legends, DOTA 2, Guardians of Middle Earth and more, somehow, on this episode of Griefed! Recorded on April 10th 2013.
We know this is a bit alienating, but we had to do it. We’re that obsessed. Ok, I’m that obsessed. It’s more of a sickness really. Sorry for the delay, I’ve been playing through Bioshock and Infinite again. Join Alex and myself as we discuss Bioshock Infinite in great detail, Puzzlebots, Street Fighter 3 Third Strike HD, Train Simulator 2013, Uncharted: Fight for Fortune, Alien Breed Vita, Persona 2: Innocent Sin, Persona 2: Eternal Punishment, Tekken 6, Injustice: Gods Among Us, Drunken Robot Pornography, Magical Drop 5, Battle Block Theater, Dance Central 3 and more on this episode of Griefed!

It’s been almost a week and I’m still not fully recovered from last weekend. Holy shit what a wild ride it was. I keep saying I’m never going back to Boston again, but really I just don’t think Alex and I should travel together anymore. Or at least we should get separate hotel rooms. I think I make both of those jokes on the podcast as well, spoiler alert! Join Alex and myself as we discuss our time at PAX East 2013, The Dream Machine, Bioshock: Infinite, Spec Ops: The Line, Organ Trail, Fahrenheit , English Country Tune, Metal Gear Rising, Thomas was Alone, Revolution 60, Boot Hill Heroes and more on this episode of Griefed!

Alex and I are currently at PAX East, but that’s not stopping us from delivering the LATEST Griefed! Podcast! We recorded this a few days before we left, but expect plenty more (probably) TinyGriefs throughout the weekend! Join Alex and myself as we talk about EA, their evil status, what they can do to escape it, and where they go from now, Gears of War: Judgement, WWE13, Defiance, Walking Dead: Survival Instincts, Runner2, and don’t forget to stay till after the credits for our Tomb Raider spoilercast on this weeks episode of Griefed!

Decades in the making, the one thing you never thought it would come out is officially here: the latest Griefed! Podcast! That sort of fits right? This is why I’m not in marketing. Well one of the reasons anyway. It’s not that I dislike it, but there is a stigma attached to certain markers, depending on the field they are promoting. Well I’m off topic now, so let me reel it back in. Join Alex and myself as we take a trip down Vaporware lane in the county of Development Hell as well as discuss SimCity, Tomb Raider, Runner 2, Resident Evil 6, Velvet Assassin and more on this episode of Griefed! Recorded on March 13th 2013.
Remember when we all thought that FMV games were the next evolution in graphics? No? Well then get ready for a trip down our memory lane!
