With the recent release of Fallout 76 and the announcement of Diablo Immortal, we thought it would be prudent to talk about franchises that left their comfort zone and tried something new.

The Ubisoft Formula & Talking Digital Retailers - Pushing Buttons 1:02:08

We have a love/hate relationship with Ubisoft. The formula is obvious, repetitive, and addictive... BUT WHY?! Whether you love them or hate them chances are you've played or still continue to play their games. BUT WHY?! We talk all about that. Then in what started as a tangential conversation about Metro Exodus, we get into a heated discussion about digital platforms for game retailers and the pros and cons to Valve's juggernaut of Steam having some potential real competition. All this and MORE on Pushing Buttons!

At the end of the last episode of Pushing Buttons, we challenged each other to play a game outside of our comfort zone and talk about it!

Games We Missed Out On in 2018 - Pushing Buttons Podcast 1:08:27

With 2018 coming to a close, it's time for the obligatory awards season! Leading into those awards, we thought it prudent to talk about the games we individually will not be including on our year-end lists because we simply haven't had enough time to play them! If you think we missed talking about any on this episode, it's probably because we are saving them for our Best of 2018 episode!
