The boys are back with a new season(!), a new plan, and a big caveat. In this episode we've got a recap of last year's Top 10s, a recap of the FantasyCritic draft, and this years draft LIVE (to tape)!
Welcome to Scorebored, a gaming podcast that only takes video games as seriously as they deserve. Jordan and Skylar talk about how games intertwine with their lives, offer thoughts on how to improve the industry across the board, and provide other attempts at levity, from the play perspective, amid an industry and culture seemingly designed to tear you down.
We’ve got a newsletter! Sign up and check it out over at https://scorebored.substack.com.
We’ve also got a (free) Patreon that features a bit more of our writing and (eventually) videos and stuff, which you can find and sign up for at scorebo.red, or patreon.com/scorebored.
Anyway, on with the show! Much love.

The Scorebored Cyberspace Radio Show Video Games and Tangential Entertainment Smorgasbord Extravaganza is back to briefly discuss the Gamescom Opening Night Live slate of announcements!
While user is out there reviewing to their heart's content, we have to consider whether it means anything to the other users out there, who are just looking for answers. Valve, once again, is trying to make user reviews matter, but is it enough? After we recap our weeks, we'll get into it.
It still sits pretty dormant, but you can check out our Patreon at scorebo.red, if you want to see what it looks like before we actually get it up and running.
Not big enough to be a genre, not small enough to be an afterthought. This episode we take a look at our favorite small elements (tropes, if you prefer?) that make up our favorite media.
Annnndddd we're back. After we recap the week(s) that was, we're gonna chat about exergames, the good, the bad, and the unfortunate.

We promise, we're going to populate that space. The ideas are happening. We're just busy, ya know? You know.
A content warning: the conversation about The Coffee Table discusses the plot of the movie in-depth, which centers around the death of an infant. At roughly 1h2m - 1h11m42s

The console wars are over thanks to... Atari?! Long live the console wars thanks to... Microsoft...
Hey, visit us at scorebo.red or patreon.com/scorebored. You'll find a tip jar there while we work on some special sheeeeee-ite.
Hey. Scorebo.red.
Now, let's look at some lesser-known games that make us feel old/have survived for quite some time out of sheer developer passion and/or a small but dedicated community.
What if you're addicted to therapy?
We talk a bit about the power of games to heal, effect, and otherwise calm the mind.
patreon.com/scorebored or scorebo.red if you want to see more and/or throw us some support!
We wanted to get a little serious and shine a light on a potential problem area in the video game landscape.
Additionally, a content warning for a conversation about Them Season 1, involving some awful shit and an infant/adult female. Around the 21:10 to 22:37 mark followed immediately by "technical difficulties" music.
Additionally additionally, Jordan referred to Kaniehtiio Horn as a "native American" because he's an idiot.
Lastly, scorebo.red or patreon.com/scorebored if you'd like to get involved, support us, and build something great.
Sometimes a game gets revealed, and then disappears. Other times, you get to play it once and never again. This episode we'll shoutout the games we'll never get to play (again).
It's time we got together and honored one of the greatest creators we've ever known, in what little way we can.

I guess it's about time we try to work out what the hell is going on over there at Warner Bros.
Look, there was a lot to catch up on, so the main topic is a bit light, but we've got plenty of stuff to share, so dive in with us.
The boys had some fun in Lethal Company, Skylar catches up on a few things, and Jordan just can't shut up about Suicide Squad and Infinite Wealth. Then, there's the layoffs...
We've got some movies to catch up on, then we draft our 2024 game lists.
Before we kick 2024 into high gear, we wanted to set some goals for ourselves and maybe help you achieve yours.
