Thumbstick Athletes

THe one of us that doesn't have a computer capable of playing The Crew Beta is the one that got the key.  Luckily he passed it on so we were able to get some time in for this week's episode.

We finally have a full on episode on Blizzard's hit card game Hearthstone.

In which we list our 5 favorite co-op games of all time.

Valiant Hearts is Ubisoft's new UbiArt Framework game which follows 4 people caught up in the events of World War I.

For this week's episode, the Athletes welcome back Jarad to talk Tomodachi Life.  It's one of those games that only Nintendo can pull off.

No NDA means we can talk about our experiences with the Destiny alpha without fear of legal action!  Find out what we thought of Bungie's ambitious MMO/FPS/RPG hybrid.

Every gamer's favorite time of the year!  E3 2014 has just ended and we, the Athletes, share our views on the different press conferences and offer up some winners and losers from this year's Expo.

We don't do anything necessarily special for our 150th episode, but do cover a special game in Mario Kart 8.

Watch_Dogs is finally out!  The hype.  The delays.  More hype.  As usual, find out our thoughts!

Two games are the main topic for this week, with Eric talking about the new Wolfenstein game and Dan and Will covering Transistor.

Will takes this lead for this week's episode on MLB 14 The Show.  It's only fair to let him lead the main segment, as he's the biggest baseball fan out of all of us...and well...he's the only one that bought it.

This week we cover the new artistic RPG Child of Light, from Ubisoft Montreal, makers of the very different Far Cry series.  It's one we all played too, so you get to hear the perspective of all the Athletes for the first time in awhile.

The gang is all here for our epsiode on Dark Souls II!  Find out our thoughts on the brutal and unforgiving action RPG.

Just Dan and Will this week, so they combine a regular episode with Dan's Watch Out For and do a Child of Light preview.

For this week's episode, something a little different.  We list the top 5 things we wish the other members of the podcast liked, with some games and genres being things listed and some a little off topic.

One of the Athletes finally got an XBOX One, so we can weigh in on the menus, games, kinect, controller and draw some comparisons to the PS4.

With April Fools day having just passed by, the Athletes do a summary of some the jokes and pranks that floated around the gaming world.  Some good, some plausible, and others...not so good.

The first big PS4 exclusive launched last week, is it a system seller?  Or should you wait on inFAMOUS and get it later.

My first Watch Out For on the Wii U exclusive X.  Plus a mission statement at the beginning.

The episode this week covers VALVe's new documentary called Free to Play, which follows the lives of three DOTA 2 players and their difficulties with being the trailblazers in the new e-sports frontier.
