The Free Cheese Episode 129: Why Do We Play Video Games?

This week on The Free Cheese Podcast:

We talk more about Batman: Arkham Knight. Joe finally reviews the game and the newly released DLC, "A Matter of Family." We take a break from the Batman chatter to go a bit deeper into EarthBound Beginnings and explore the insides of Shigesato Itoi's mind.

Marc returns to the basics and enjoys some Super Smash Bros. for his birthday, and tells us a bit about his trip to New York where he visited the Nintendo World Store. 

This week, Marc asks the question, "Why do we play video games?" We try to get to the root of the question and discover what draws us to play video games over something else and where we see ourselves with games in the years to follow. 

Don't forget to check out AmiiboHunt on the App Store if you're stuck driving from store to store in hopes of finding that rare amiibo. Our good friend developed this app so that we don't have to waste time anymore and we can see what is in stock before starting the car.
