Episode 261: Devil May Cry 2

Devils Never Cry! That’s what we learned at the end of Devil May Cry 1, but apparently, between that game and this one, Dante also decided that Devils should never emote. No sarcasm, no quips, no nothing. Also, if you’re a Devil, combat should be super easy and boring and your upgrade tree should be simple and number based. Thank God Devil May Cry 3 is a prequel.

Episode 258: Mega Man 5

Before there was Call of Duty every year, there was Mega Man every year, the shooter of the late 80s/early 90s. What new, exciting Mans will the Blue Bomber face this time? What face will Zach make when he hears about the weakness chart? And who could possibly be behind the wave of robot related crime this year? Listen to find out!

Episode 257: Sonic the Hedgehog 3

Did you ever went fast? Did you ever went so fast that you created a kind of bad game with awful level design that doesn’t actually let you go fast at all? Did you ever went so fast you met an echidna who was kind of a jerk and you felt should really be a playable character for some reason? Did you ever went so fast you started to realize maybe Sonic was never good at all and Sonic 2 was just a huge fluke? In this weeks episode, we went fast.

Episode 250: Fire Emblem The Sacred Stones

Do you know those people who get grumpy if they don’t get their coffee in the morning? Well, some nations get grumpy if they don’t have all the magical stones that keep the realm in balance in the morning. What can you do to protect your home from such invading neighbors after they mysteriously lose all sense of reason, promote a bunch of jerks to hunt after you, and engage in a guerilla war with your brother? The only way to find out is to listen!

Episode 249: Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell

Here’s a sentence that only makes sense in the year 2002. “Wouldn’t it be better if the NSA had highly trained stealth operatives they could dispatch with little oversight”? If they did, only the best aging military veterans would be selected. They’d have to climb on pipes, and no when they’re in light, and have thigh muscles so strong they could support their entire body weight with them. If you think you have what it takes, give this episode a listen.

Episode 248: Super Earth Defense Force

War. War never changes. You’re always just flying around in your single aircraft, you against an entire invading enemy force. Maybe they’re aliens? They’re probably aliens. Your only allies are two little drones by your side. Not even an imperiled frog or cocky falcon to get your back. Its just you against all of space, in Super Earth Defense Force.

Episode 247: Hitman Codename 47

When you have a dirty job, you can’t just use your real name like some shmuck. You need a code name! Like Batman, or Summer, or 007… or 47. Now you might think those last two are numbers, but what about when you spell them out? Find out in our latest episode, which may or may not actually have anything to do with codenames or numbers.

Episode 246: Uforia The Saga

What is a saga? A trilogy of trilogies? A battle against a fierce villain that takes at least 50 episodes? A long story of heroic achievement, especially a medieval prose narrative in Old Norse or Old Icelandic? Or just falling into a hole with your friends and trying to get out? Listen to this week’s episode and find out!

Episode 243: Brawl Brothers

Sometimes, you can’t settle things with words. Sometimes, things get to the point that nothing can solve your differences with your rivals other than a good old fashioned brawl. And if you’re going to be fighting anyway, you might as well dress up as M. Bison right? Gives you the psychological edge, even if it doesn’t give you the psycho power.
