<p>We&rsquo;re back! After a missed week due to Life™, Cassie and Ross sit down to discuss <em>The Sims Bustin&rsquo; Out</em> on the GameBoy Advance, a childhood favorite of Cassie&rsquo;s! They focus on the design of the game, how the developers met the challenge (or didn&rsquo;t meet) of adapting a PC game to a handheld format, and the general hilarity of the dialogue and storytelling.</p>
<p>We do not have a pitch attached to this episode as Cassie is still working on Dragon Age! You can hear her thoughts on the first third of the game <a href="https://pitchandplay.org/dragon-age-origins-the-legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom/">on a previous episode</a>.</p>

Cassie and Ross invite special guest Joe, known <em>Breath of the Wild</em> fan, to gush about Nintendo&rsquo;s latest release and how we just want to spend all of our time in the depths. Cassie closes the episode by pitching yet another banger to Ross, <em>The Sims Bustin&rsquo; Out</em> for GBA, which he is sure to like and enjoy.</p>

We check in on Cassie&rsquo;s progress on <em>Dragon Age: Origins</em>, which is about a third of the way through (Alistair is the worst).

<p>This week on Pitch &amp; Play, Cassie abuses her privileges of forcing others to play games she likes by making Ross play <em>Tony Hawk&rsquo;s American Wasteland</em> and relives her childhood fantasies of being a cool skateboarder instead of a boring adult. Ross and Cassie dig into the (admittedly sparse) narrative, at times bloated gameplay, and dope soundtrack (can you guess who writes these summaries?). Ross then pitches <em>Dragon Age Origins</em> to Cassie. Our pitch for <em>Dragon Age</em> is extra long as Cassie and Ross attempt to tease out the &ldquo;best&rdquo; way to approach a large BioWare RPG — especially one that has been a long time coming for Cassie.</p>

The two discuss the potential in the premise of the game, its incredible graphics (that still hold up in 2023!), and ultimate failure to deliver a satisfying end product. The episode concludes with Ross&rsquo;s pitch to Cassie for the next episode, <em>Rise of the Tomb Raider</em>, the second game in the Tomb Raider &ldquo;Survivor Trilogy.&rdquo;</p>
