Intimates: Fictional videos games inside fictional worlds

Video Games

Checkpoint Intimates is a weekly podcast where two members of the team go one-on-one on a topic that they both feel strongly about, talking in a more deeper and, yes, intimate context.

This week, Elliot and Cameron talk about video games, like usual, but this time it’s about fictional video games. Often in movies and TV shows writers need to invent an entirely new video game to fit the narrative their trying to tell. Sometimes this can be amusing but sometimes they can wildly miss the mark. So from The Simpsons to Gerard Butler which ones stand out to the boys.

Giving a 1-UP to diversity in gaming.
