Send us a text

MarcusB814 and Dr. Gameology explore the psychological connections we form with video games and how our gaming habits reflect our personalities.

• Gaming setups and workflow with discussion of Lenovo's Yoga Book laptop for mixing gaming and productivity
• Trophy hunting in games like Journey, Heavy Rain, and Bioshock, and what these achievements mean to different players
• Marcus's Elden Ring experience in Crumbling Farum Azula and the crossroads of completing the game versus exploring every area
• The psychology of gaming backlogs and why we buy games we never play
• Which video game characters would make the best coworkers and what their job titles would be
• How gaming experiences become so meaningful they inspire permanent tattoo ideas
• PlayStation versus Xbox controller layouts and the confusion when switching between platforms
