Happy New Year!  Around this time of year, I like to make a list of games that are releasing in the coming year that I’m looking forward to.  Of course, this isn’t a full complete list, as there will assuredly be titles announced throughout the year that I may get as well. Heck, last year we didn’t know about Pac-Man World: Re-Pac until late summer, and that ended up being my Game of the Year in 2022!  But anyway, here’s what I know now, for the most part, so let’s take a look at what games I’m looking forward to in 2023!

On this episode of the Pizza Pixel Podcast, my brother Nathan and I talk about our favorite 3-D platformers.  It was a lot of fun to talk about and record, and I hope you can click on the link below and give it a listen!  I’d really appreciate it, thanks!

Let’s count down to the New Year with more reviews I’ve written recently at GamerDad.com.  Please click on the links and read as many as you can and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two.  I’d appreciate it.  OK let’s begin!

It’s the end of the year so you know what that means?  It’s time for my “Best Games of 2022 Awards Show!”  Keep in mind that this is my list only and no other outside opinions contributed.  And if a game isn’t on this list, it either just didn’t appeal to me as much or I haven’t had a chance to play it yet.  Ok with that out of the way, let’s begin!

Merry Christmas!  I’ve got some presents for you all!  Game reviews I’ve recently written over at GamerDad.com!  Just what you always wanted right?  Anyway, please click on the links and read as many as you can, and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two.  I’d appreciate it.  And also in the comments section, give me a pretend Christmas present, and I’ll reply with one for you, too!  It’s fun when it’s fun.  It can be anything you like, it’s the thought that counts…literally!  OK let’s begin!

My brother Nathan wanted to record a podcast with me on our favorite 3-D platformers, so before I do that, I wanted to talk about my favorite 2-D platformers, so that’s just what my other brother Jeff and I did in this episode of The Pizza Pixel Podcast.  Please click on the link and give it a listen if you can.  Thanks.

A couple of months ago I reviewed the PlayDate, a new handheld gaming device that has a crank on the side that you can wind to control some of the games.  The other unique thing about this device is how you get the games.  They come two at a time and are downloaded automatically on the handheld each week on a Monday.  I talked about a few of them when I wrote my initial review, and then another batch of ten more about a month later.  And now I’ve got my final batch of ten from season one, so we’ll go over those as well as my final thoughts on the PlayDate.

Thanksgiving is coming up, so I’ve prepared for you all a feast of game reviews I’ve recently written over at GamerDad.com.  Please click on the links and read as many as you can, and maybe post a like or comment or two.  I’d appreciate it.  After this feast of game reviews, you should all have nice fat little full bellies when you’re done reading them all!

Konami recently came out with a collection of their licensed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games they released back in the late 80s and early 90s, during the first round of the Turtles’ heyday.  Since a lot of people grew up with and enjoyed these titles, this collection is a pretty big deal.  Especially since for a long time, it would’ve been hard to get the rights to all these games again!  But I guess since Nickelodeon has all the rights to TMNT stuff now, maybe that part was easier to do?  Anyway, of course I got this collection so grab a slice of pizza and let’s take a look at the games on here as well as my personal history with each title.

My brother Ben returns and we talk about our favorite turn-based RPGs in this episode of The Pizza Pixel Podcast!  I think out of all my brothers, Ben likes RPGs the most, and since I’ve helped introduce many of them to the genre, I guess I know a bit about them, too!  I’ve definitely fell off the RPG loop now, but I was really into them way back in the 16-bit days!  So please click on the link and give it listen if you can.  I think this one’s a lot of fun!
