  • 10 Games That Shaped Us | JK! Games!
    Dec 16 2025

    In this episode of JKG, Jerica, Josh, and Kayla take turns counting down the 10 games that shaped them as gamers — from childhood favorites to the experiences that defined our tastes, habits, and gaming personalities.
    This isn’t a “best of all time” list — it’s a deeply personal draft covering the games that stuck with us and influenced our gaming tastes.

    Whether you grew up on consoles, PC, handhelds, or all of the above, this episode is about the games that leave a mark — and why we still carry them with us.

    JK! Games! is the gaming podcast where we bring you the news and reviews we care about, hosted by Jerica, Kayla, and Josh.
    VGBC (Video Game Book Club) is our rotating deep-dive series focused on one game at a time — played together, discussed together, broken down one level at a time.

  • I’ve Never Played Metroid… So We Talked About It. - Jerica
    Dec 10 2025

    Jerica played a Metroid game for the first time, so naturally she needed backup.
    Josh and Jordan (aka Cognitive Clips) join me to break down our first impressions of Metroid Prime 4 Beyond, with Jordan bringing longtime Metroid knowledge and Josh coming in already "in the know" about the series.

    We talk about:
    – How it feels to jump into Metroid as a total newcomer
    – What the game explains well vs. what it might expect from you
    – Movement, atmosphere, and that classic Metroid vibe
    – Whether Metroid Prime is a good entry point if you’ve never touched the franchise before
    If you’ve ever looked at Metroid and thought “this looks cool but is it empty?”, this one’s for you.
