VG Realness Gets Hands-on at the Nintendo Post-E3 2014 Preview Event

We’ve done it before and we did it again! That’s right, James, Michael and Delvin went to Nintendo’s most recent media preview event showcasing some of the biggest and best games The Big N was touting at E3 2014. Watch below for our hands-on demos of Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2, Yoshi’s Woolly World, and Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker.

Episode 17 – Objection!

It’s a VG Realness three-man crew this week. Join Delvin, James and Michael as they discuss the newest Ace Attorney game, Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies. You won’t object when they also talk about their impressions from Gamercamp, getting hands-on with some of Nintendo’s holiday releases (with extra commentary expanding on our videos from last week), and all of the hottest news of the week.

Also: in a VG Realness first, the guys play a few rounds of The Metagame — a card debate game about games and culture — that is currently holding a Kickstarter. Which do you think will save the world? Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Cats: The Musical? (Thanks again to Eric Zimmerman, Colleen Macklin and John Sharp for sending us an preview deck!)

Episode 7 – And Then There Were Three

On this week’s podcast of VG Realness, Cameron, James and Delvin discuss Xbox One and it’s DRM policies. Was it the right move or should they have stuck to their guns and just lip sync’d for their life later? We also discuss what their bigger picture might have been. Also on the forecast, a discussion of open world games and is it a right fit for all games? All that, news items of the week and what games we’re playing on Episode 7 of the VG Realness Podcast!
