Hump Day Video: Downloadable Cast

Yesterday was an incredibly slow day for the video game industry.  Yes, it was new release day, but other than Theatrhythm Final Fantasy for the 3DS no other new game was noteworthy.  Most of the gaming community did not care for The Secret World, EA and Funcom's new MMORPG, and Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends, the newest entry in Atari's Test Drive series.  With no big release and no real motivation to do I post, I decided to put out two posts today.  Two posts that should help you get over the hump that is Wednesday.  First up is the Hump Day Video that you are reading followed by Hump Day Music just a little later.

Jirard Khalil is The Completionist.  As The Completionist, Jirard reviews games in a different way.  Giving games a rating of if somebody should take the time to actually complete the game or not.  You can catch Jirard's content on his Youtube page, ThatOneVideoGamer or on Screwattack.  It was actually through Screwattack that I started to watch Jirard's videos and subscribe to his Youtube page.  One of Jirard's newest projects is a weekly video podcast called the Downloadable Cast (DLC for short).  During this weekly podcast, which is recorded live in front of a live audience on Twitch TV, Jirard and a co-host, be it his partner in crime Greg Wilmot or a special guest, discuss big topics in the gaming industry.  Out of the three podcasts so far, my favourite has to be the lastest one as they discuss the future of Nintendo.  While you may not agree with each opinion, I know I have not always, it is a great one hour discussion that really hit some great points about Nintendo's immediate future.  If you have the time, watch the video provided below.  If you enjoy this video, watch all of Jirard's other videos and possibly subscribe to his Youtube page to show you support from great original content.
