Disconnected Gamers, Where We Reconnect with Gaming and Life
Episode 62. March 20th, 2016. Special Guest: Abstractacas aka Mike! Ya Boy Mike was actually out sick this episode but thankfully Mike (the guest) was able to fill in for him. Abstractacas (cause it’s easier than saying “the other Mike” :P) is a huge fan of Rare and their current project Sea of Thieves, so […]

Episode 61. March 14th, 2016. A day late and 3 people short of 52 free delicious snack size wing orders, Andrew and Mike re-connect with some life stuff (mostly Andrew being 103rd in line for the first 100 at a BDubs opening), car stuff, etc. Once we get that out of the way we jump […]

Axiom Verge, the highly successful retro-side scrolling shooter/exploration game will be coming to Xbox One and Nintendo Wii U’s eShop later this year. Aside from the fact that this game is heavily influenced by some of my favorite games from the past (Contra, Metroid, Master Blaster, etc.), it allows you to take advantage of glitches […]
Catlateral Damage, the adorable cat game is now coming to PlayStation 4 on March 22nd. See our first report about the game’s release on Steam last May. Also Chris Chung, the developer, posted about it on the PlayStation Blog as well! The short and sweet of it is MEOW! You get to play as a cat! […]
Episode 60. March 7th, 2016. Mike and Andrew spend the whole episode (unintentionally, by the way) talking about Uncharted 4’s recent Stress Test of the Multiplayer. It was pretty great, though Andrew had issues with grenade throwing, and Mike didn’t get revives (which we talk about the pros about reviving your teammates too). Overall the […]

McDROID was previously available on Steam but with it’s success it has now branched over to consoles. Available on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, this action/tower-defense game is ready for download! The following was taken from the McDROID presskit: Doggy robot McDROID and her friend, the very talkative Shuttle head back home to their […]
Episode 59. February 28th, 2016. On the eve of the leap year day, we took some time to reflect on one of our favorite game series, Pokémon. February 26th, 1996 saw the release of Red and Green in Japan (it was 1998 that the US was graced with Red/Blue’s presence) and we run through the […]

Well, turns out it’s been 20 years since we started catching our first Pokémon (20yrs since Pokémon Red/Green released in Japan). That’s a weird thought that before I was 10 years old I was playing Pokémon Red on my (then) matching Red original Game Boy. While I personally have lost track with all of the […]
*Update: PlayStation has since pulled the original video and replaced the trailer with a new version replacing the image in the photograph.* The new Uncharted 4 story trailer dropped earlier this morning, and it’s already raising lots of questions for fans. Heck, even Ubisoft has jumped in because of a questionable choice in “artwork” in […]
Rocket League, the absolutely sensational soccer-meets-car-meets-havoc-meets fun game is now available on the Xbox One. Psyonix came out of nowhere with Rocket League when it launched on PS4 and PC in July of 2015. A successor to their PS3 game Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars, Rocket League brought fast paced car and soccer physics into our lives and […]
The horror game Layers of Fear has left early access and is now available on PC and Consoles (PS4, Xbox One) today! Aspyr Media and developer Bloober Team put this game together, and Bloober had this to say to all their fans: We would like to take this opportunity and thank all of our fans and […]
Episode 57. February 14th, 2016. Mike and Andrew talk about the Crash Bandicoot toy nonsense (as it turns out, it’s just a big misunderstanding) via Polygon and GameSpot and then Mike’s topic sort of ties in with the question, “If you could bring back a game title from the past, what would it be?” We end […]

We already talked about Battlefleet Gothic: Armada‘s narrative in another post on our site, but check out this newly released gameplay trailer. This trailer is short, but shows us a great deal about the different types of ships in the Chaos warfleet, as well as how some of the battle mechanics work in-game. Also we […]
Episode 56. January 7th, 2016. Mike and Andrew chat about the recent one-day experience some gamers had with Red Dead Redemption on Xbox One’s 360 backwards compatibility.

Episode 55. January 31st, 2016. WARNING: Andrew goes on a rant this episode. It’s not like a rant rant, but he’s just confused about the Xbox One. Trying really hard to enjoy the console but it’s hard to ignore the flaws. That said, as much of a train wreck of an episode this week’s is, we […]

The newest expansion to Dying Light: The Following, has an enormous map. Seriously, it’s apparently larger than the original game’s map area in size. Check out the youtube video below where TechLand shows off some exploration of the new areas. So basically, get READY! The new area is 2 times the size of the original […]
Announced from the showfloor at PAX South, tinyBuild will be publishing ClusterTruck by Landfall Games. ClusterTruck is a physics-based truckformer. You’ll jump through levels with a “floor is lava” type gameplay, jumping over speeding trucks. The trick is that the trucks are driven by terrible drivers, so they’re all over the place. To add insult […]
Battlefleet Gothic: Armada has a new narrative trailer, and the game is well on it’s way to its Spring release as well. An RTS game set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, this new trailer shows off a bit of what the solo campaign has in store for us. Check it out below. If you’re a […]
