ElectricSistaHood


Join self-proclaimed geeks (and actual sisters) NinJaSistah and Pandalicious each week as they share a unique look at video games new and old. From console gaming (Xbox, Playstation, Wii) to mobile (iOS and Android), triple "A" titles to independent developer releases, trade show coverage and even one-on-one interviews, these ladies review and preview it all. Sprinkle in a little bit of anime and tech gadget and a whole lot of randomness and you've got yourself an episode of ElectricSistaHood.

It's getting perilously close to the holiday shopping season, and Ninja is already frightened of all that space she has left over in her pocket book. What was once green is now bare. And that means that a leather money-holder is now in control of things. With the Xbox One X and the SNES Classic coming out, she might be forced to go without for a while longer. But that doesn't stop her from dreaming, and some of her dreams come alive in this podcast. While Ninja laments her lack of an Xbox One X, she realizes she probably isn't […] The post ESH Cast #551: My wallet’s making all of my decisions for me appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

If there's one thing Panda prides herself on, it's her reputation as a completionist. In most every game she plays, she's the one who can be depended upon to collect every trinket that comes her way. Just don't depend on her doing that very quickly, though. She'll admit that to you, as she does during this week's ElectricSistaHood podcast. She'll get that last bauble... eventually. You might not be able to set your clock by it, but you can certainly set your sundial for it to happen one of these days. The game in question was an early Sonic game, […] The post ESH Cast #550: Sure, I’m a completionist, but I’m lazy, too appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

We designed this week's podcast as one that you can both see and hear -- at least, that's the plan. As you will hear, we spend the entire show playing the early stages of the video game Overcooked. And, with any luck, you'll be able to see us play it on our You Tube channel. That's the plan anyway. Seeing it is actually going to take a few more days, but we're very hopeful. And what should you expect to see? If you've played or seen Overcooked, it is a game in which partners operate the backend operations of a […] The post ESH Cast #549: It’s not about perfection — except it is appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

With a name like "Let's Meat Adam" -- and that spelling of "meat" is not a misprint -- Panda is mindful of the misfortune that just might occur in the game. It's not an ordinary game, either, as you'll find out if you listen to this week's podcast. She first watched someone play it on the internet, then she had to try it for herself. She remains more than just a little flabbergasted. She is excited about the Netflixization of the long-time video game Castlevania, but, as you'll hear, she is also just a little upset with it. The problem […] The post ESH Cast #548: Nothing bad has happened, but it’s gonna appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

As any longtime listener of this podcast knows, the Sistahs are big fans of Astro Gaming. Astro has always made gaming headsets we simply love -- and we've expressed that love dozens of times on the show. But, as things must, they are changing. You see, Ninja and Panda weren't the only ones in love with Astro. It seems that Logitech had an eye on them, too. So last week, Logitech flexed its mighty dollar-filled muscles and announced it would purchase Astro. And, unlike Ninja and Panda, who have only the couple of hundred bucks Astro charges for its equipment, […] The post ESH Cast #547: I’ve made my threat — I hope Logitech’s listening appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

Questionable content is always the hallmark of anime, and that continues to be true with an anime-style game Pandalicious discusses in this week's new podcast. The game's called Gal*Gun: Double Peace, and although it has a normal-sounding name, you should be made aware of the thing's sexual content well before trying it out. This is something you want to get acquainted with in the privacy of your own home -- not at a party with friends. If you want to know more, you'll get an earful via Panda's description, so we'll leave it at that. There's plenty of normal stuff […] The post ESH Cast #546: If you think it’s inappropriate, it could have been worse appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

You could say this is a show full of Blerd Lines. The black nerd comes out of Ninjah and Panda full force in this week's podcast. Practically every subject they talk about contains this undercurrent. They start off discussing the upcoming Black Panther movie, followed by a lively discussion of Jay-Z's new 4:44 album. There's also talk of the just-announced A Wrinkle in Time movie, particularly surrounding the announcement of the inclusion of the iconic Oprah Winfrey. In addition, they talk about the new Doctor Who, the anticipation surrounding the longpawaited Kingdom Hearts 3 movie, along with the inclusion of […] The post ESH Cast #545: Sing Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah and get over it appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

It's not enough to simply go to a movie anymore. Now you get to pick from many poisons. It's not just a matter of blank-and-white or color, silent or sound or anything simple like that. Nowadays you get multiple dimensions, seats that recline or move, things that spray in your face. We don't need anything interupting us and our enjoyment of Skittles. But, it seems, the more you pay, the more unfortunate interruptions you receive. That's what happened to Panda when she went to see the Spider-Man: Homecoming film this past week. She'll let you know all about it. In […] The post ESH Cast #544: I have to admit my butt was immersed appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

Once upon a time, Ninja was addicted to a video game called Destiny. Now Destiny is back in its second version, and Ninja finds herself the sadder, but wiser girl. Although she believes that she won't once again become addicted to this newer version of the game, there is also the frightening thought that she might once again fall to its passions. Will she? Won't she? Only time will tell. For now, at least, she is able to talk dispassionately about the game. Destiny 2 is but one of the many subjects of this week's podcast. Ninja also talks about […] The post ESH Cast #543: You’re gonna hear more about Destiny 2 — that’s a threat and a promise appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.

We pose a valid question in this week's show. How, exactly, are they able to make scary scarier? Of course, we don't answer the question -- we're leaving that all up to you. Instead, we spend considerable time talking about the upcoming game Evil Within 2. With a name like that, it is vital that the sequel end up being scarier than the original. The sequel has to try to be more than its earlier chapter, right? And whether or not you agree with Panda's take on the subject, she freely and openly offers it up -- you have to […] The post ESH Cast #542: How do they make scary scarier? appeared first on ESH - ElectricSistaHood.
