    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome to another episode of The Gamerheads Podcast. This week, Roger, Zeb, and Jake dig back into the mess surrounding Highguard, including layoffs, the site going down, and whether that big Game Awards spotlight did more harm than good.

    The crew also talks about Bluepoint shutting down and speculates on the reasons behind it and the potential fallout.

    Then they shift gears into what they’ve been playing, with Zeb sharing thoughts on the charming 3D platformer Demon Tides, Jake battling his way through the brutal Love Eternal, and Roger breaking down two very different experiences: the frustrating Clue: Murder by Death and the joyful, tabletop-inspired Baladins.

    Highguard Drops Hard: Can a New Hero Shooter Survive 2026? | The Gamerheads Podcast

    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome to another episode of The Gamerheads Podcast! This week, we dig into two very different conversations. First up: Dispatch and why Nintendo’s handling of content moderation can feel wildly inconsistent, especially when you compare what gets flagged versus what quietly slips through the eShop.

    Then we shift to our main topic: Highguard and the reality of launching a free-to-play team shooter in a crowded space. We break down the big player-count drop, why 3v3 on oversized maps is rubbing people the wrong way, and whether games like this can still find a long-term audience (or if the first couple weeks decide everything). 

    Finally we cover the games we've been playing: Star Rupture, Project Zomboid, Death Stranding 2, and a whole lot of Animal Crossing.
