Episode 68: E3 Wish Lists and Robot Dog Overlords
In the lead up to E3, Jake and Trav keep spouting off what they think is going to happen. They really have no idea this year (as if they ever did). Trav completes a few games, and Jake is on the verge of buying games again. Plus, they get a few listener questions too.
Episode 67: Leaky Horchacho
What is this made up word in the title? Is it made up? Trav thinks that it means something that it probably doesn't. I'm sorry if it's offensive. Anyway, Trav knocked out a slew (slough?) of games and Jake goes off on some E3 nonsense.
Episode 66: The Solo Experience
Everyone is talking about the single-player game and if it will survive against the battle royale, esports and the like. Jake and Trav think it has to as well. In the discussion they talk about what attracts them to the single player games that they love, some of their favorite stories from games, and more. Games were beaten and added to the backlog as usual, so that's neat too.
Episode 65: In the Polydawg House
Jake and Trav are back with a brand new pair of guests! This time Eric and Melissa (AKA the QDawgs) are along for the Polykill adventure. They discuss new game pickups, how they got started on Youtube and more!
Episode 64: Spring Cleaning 64
Well Jake's back, not like anyone really missed him. Anyway, this episode sees Trav and Jake eliminating a few games from their backlog: by completing them AND by bracket-style elimination. And there's a pretty wild Target story in there too.
Episode 63: That Geddon Goodness
Well this is a first. Jake has to sit out this latest episode of the cast, and in his stead the usurper Brian (@hokiebriz). Trav and Briz talk about their backlogs and stuff; and they discuss one of their most sacred traditions, Video Geddon. Listen if you want to know what the heck that is.
Episode 62: Virtual [Reality] Insanity
So, Brian finally makes his way onto the show and gabs along with Jake and Trav about the games they have all played. The discussion is led by the guest and it's all about Virtual Reality! The fact that this episode is coinciding with Ready Player One's theatrical release is completely coincidental. We're not that smart...
Episode 61: The Cost of Free Games
Alright, so Jake and Trav are back with their next episode of this show, and they update you on the progress in their game-beating accomplishments. Jake waxes scholarly and drops figures and stats on the PS+ and Games With Gold titles and he and Trav discuss the ups and downs of "free" games. It's alright I guess.
Episode 60: Lawyered Up
The 60th episode of Polykill sees Jake and Trav welcome long time listener Diego (@ALatinoLawyer) to the show to talk about all the games they beat or something. He's a cool guy, much cooler than the other two idjits on the shot. You should probably listen to this one.
Episode 59: The 2018 Hot or Not List
So this time Jake and Travis talk about games that they beat (big surprise) and they added to their shame piles. Then they do this thing where they rate how excited they are for some of this year's big releases. They think that we care about that for some reason. Whatever, there's some good jokes.
Episode 58: MAGfest & 2018 Resolutions
After the long ass episode where Jake and Trav went through all of the best games they played in 2017, Polykill returns with something completely original. I'm kidding this isn't original at all. It's New Year's Resolutions, quaint. Anyway, listen to this thing because it ain't bad really. Also Trav gabs about Magfest.....nerd.
Episode 57: Hindsight is 2017
It's finally here: the year-end episode to end us all. Jake and Trav cover their favorite games played in 2017, some released this year, and others that they finally got around to playing. From platformers, to action, to adventure, listen for opinions and choices on what the standouts were this year. Listen and share!
Episode 56: Modern RPG's
This time around on the podcast, Jake and Trav dive into some modern role-playing games that they have enjoyed, and have yet to play. As usual the fellas go over the games that they have added to and escorted from their backlogs.
Episode 55: Polykill and Listen
This time around the podcast welcomes fellow gamer and podcaster, JD from Play And Listen! In typical PolyKill fashion all Jake, Trav, and JD go through the games they have cleared and added to their backlog. The notes are sabotaged to great heights, and the discussion centers around how JD came to start his very own show!
Episode 54: The Golden Age of Beat'em Ups
The 54th episode of the show is here! Some sizable movements in the backlog are announced, including some hardware! The discussion turns back the clock to the 80's and 90's when brawlers and beat'em ups were all the (Streets of) rage.
Episode 53: Chico and the Man
The fifty-third episode of the podcast is all about the classic sitcom Chico and the Man! Just kidding, the topic is sports games, and Jake and Trav try to explain why they no longer play them, and what it would take to play them again. Updates to the backlog are here as usual, and Jake finally nails down his long play.
Episode 52: The War is Cancelled, Go Home
Episode 52 is here, and Jake and Trav bring you up to speed on their backlogs, completed games, and pickups. Jake discusses the EA's closing of Visceral, and the new Switch software update. The discussion takes a turn into classic gaming cinema, as the guys discuss the 90's classic Street Fighter.
Episode 51: Snap Into a Sim, Jim
Do you like managing virtual worlds, or driving a truck across Europe? How about growing crops, or keeping dangerous inmates behind bars? Episode 51 discusses all the genre of simulation games, with Jake and Trav praising their favorites and what makes sim games just so darn fun. More games are knocked off and onto the backlog as Jake keeps buying games for the Switch.
Episode 50: Polykillin' It Live
The podcast has reached a milestone episode and to celebrate, Jake and Trav streamed the episode live! All the normal segments are here, and a big shakeup in Jake's console lineup gets announced. Trav reveals a smorgasbord of games that left his pile of shame, and listener questions are the topic of discuush!
