Episode 103: Even More Useless Dreams [Kirby's Dreamland]

We talk about MOBAs a lot, followed by Pokemon and Kirby.  A Kirby game that doesn't suck, in fact!  Somehow, that seems to be to its disadvantage.  Find out where Kirby's first adventure leaves the pink puffball.



Our download can't copy powers, but it sure does suck!


Show Notes

 (05:00) Riot's bankrolling its own tournaments, apparently.  Also, MOBAs!

(23:30) Pokemon Shuffle!

(25:00) Pokemon Insurgence is an in-progress fan game.  It's pretty sweet!

(30:00) Kirby!  Sadly, the game lacks variety... and powerups of firebreathing doom.

(34:30) More rankings!  This week we add Shock Troopers, Bomberman '93, and Final Fantasy II.

Episode 102: When Are We Going To Get Crazy Uber? [Crazy Taxi]

Get ready for some craaaazy fares!  Seriously, these people will pay ridiculous amounts for 30 seconds of driving.  Of course, at the speeds you're going, it'd likely take them at least 15 minutes to walk there.  So, the question become whether $50 is worth 15 minutes of their time.  Though, if they're letting these homicidal drivers take them anywhere, probably not, so... poor impulse control?



You only have 10 seconds to get to our next download!


Show Notes

 (05:00) Civ V adventures!

(15:00) Reassembly!  Turns out that tactical nuke Tyler wanted exists in one of the factions.

(18:00) Into the Gloom is an ambient horror survival; it's aesthetically similar to Dare to Dream.

(19:15) Steam allows people to watch you play.  So, like Twitch, but with fewer people.

(21:00) Everyone is John sound hilariously amusing.

(27:00) After defaulting on your loans, you should Bravely Second.

(33:00) So... Crazy Taxi.  It's definitely got controls.  We proclaim it "fairly amusing".

(41:00) Back to rankings!

Episode 101: Reverse Stockholm Syndrome [Chrono Trigger]

You know what screams classic SNES era RPGs?  Dragon Ball Z!  Oh, also one of the best RPGs ever, too.  I feel like Chrono should speak up for himself more often, though.  Why does he have a katana?  Seriously?  Oh, well, it's pretty sweet anyway.



In the year 1999, this download would have taken about 4 hours... in the future!


Show Notes

 (01:30) Hitler's ass!

(03:00) Anther's Ladder is not nearly as intimidating as it looks or sounds.

(05:00) Half-naked is a valid combat strategy.

(08:20) The new Frieza is just... Cooler.

(11:00) Goku and Frieza are the best of friends, I hear.

(16:00) Plot time!

(20:00) Some gripes about the ATB system in general (not just in this game).

(30:00) Whining about the silent protagonist and some occasionally poor signposting.

(39:00) Discussing the hero's motivation and themes in the game, not to mention potential metaphor.

(48:00) Back to the ratings!

Episode 100, Part 1

Somehow we've been managing to do this for 100 episodes.  From our perspective, that's a pretty solid 2 years of talking about videogames for an hour each week (which sounds a lot less like an accomplishment now that I write that).  In this multipart retrospective, we attempt to qualitatively rank all the games we've played so far, including our bonus episodes/multi-game episodes.  It's surprisingly fun!  Let us know your thoughts!



This download only counts to 13.

Show Notes

(06:20) 7 Days To Build a Sweet Water Fortress.

(10:10) Fire Emblem: still good.

(18:00) Space Hulk Ascension!

(24:00) Anime presents unrealistic standards for women.

(40:00) We start our rankings! I'll update this page with our rankings, but here's what we have after the first week:

  1. Castlevania
  2. Gradius
  3. Metroid

Episode 99: Construction Is Over [Zanac]

Because this week's game is about a vertical space shooter, clearly this week's theme is... tanks!  Lots of tanks.  Also, DBZ, but that's more of a theme in the podcast than any individual episode.  While we're at it, we talk a bit about everyone's favorite game that randomly makes you stop moving to fight a building.  Riveting stuff here, folks.



Our download can either wiggle a little bit or kill every virus on its way to your computer.  Seems like a fair trade.


Show Notes

(01:00)  Snarky skulls and chainsaw massacres!

(03:00) The pistol guy in Killer 7 is Coyote.  Reading his bio should make you understand why this game was critically acclaimed and commercially panned.

(04:00) Trifroze's Falcon!

(09:00) Dillon's Rolling Western is a really cool concept that suffers from some control/mechanic issues.

(13:30) Heroes 6 is pretty fun... still.  Unfortunately, most games, including this one, needs a text size on option for larger screens.

(21:00) League: one of the few contexts where "fed as hell" doesn't involve bloating.  Related: Nemesis Mode sounds pretty cool.

(27:30) Kirby vs. Majin Buu!

(32:00) DBZ Xenoverse: The Adventures of Dumplin!

(34:30) Fire Man!

(37:00) Turns out the way to make money in Fallen London is just selling your 5000 jade fragments and take the exchange hit.

(39:45) Tanks and guns on tanks.

(43:00) Guys, a good game published by Sega in the 2010s!  Also, more tanks.

(50:00) H1Z1 is like a terrible DayZ.

(53:30) Zanac: It's better than Star Soldier!


Next time on Last Time, our episode 100 retrospective!

100 times the fun of Double Mint Gum!

Episode 98: Ugly-Nosed Peasants [Fire Emblem]

Nintendo's lesser known child, Fire Emblem, and its first appearance on our podcast!  Sword some guys, ax some lances, shoot fireballs.  This game's got it all... except telling you how to talk to other people.  I suppose, though, that's a life skill that no game has taught.



This Killer Download has a 35% chance of being critically awesome.


Show Notes

 (08:40) Norse mythology is weird!  Also, ShinTen.

(11:30) Bravely vampire!

(16:00) That thing with a 'C' that's Fallen London currency is Cryptic Clue.  Yes, clues and secrets are currency.  As is a Tale of Terror.  This game is weird.

(20:00) Sunless Sea looks pretty good.

(22:00) Fire Emblem is fun, guys!  We attempt to dissect why the combat in this is fun.  We also talk about the general mechanics and how the story (which is "good") is mostly just a frame for some fantasy tactics time.

(29:00) Lyn is a Disney Princess!


Next time on Last Time, Zanac!  Hopefully less construction this time.

Episode 97: Road Construction... In Space! [Star Soldier]

When there are floating heads
In your local group
Who you gonna call?
Star Soldier!
Though, the floating space heads do seem awfully productive. Maybe they contract at reasonable rates?



The route to our download is fraught with guys holding stop signs.


Show Notes

 (01:30) Apparently the WWE sucked this year.  Who knew?

(04:00) Silly Metroid Prime.  The trilogy is available on the Wii U VC now, though.

(05:30) The Payday Bomb Heist DLC is actually pretty fun.  The dock's generally fun, and the forest a pretty big change in map layout.

(11:00) I can't believe we haven't linked this before.

(12:00) Dilbert is apparently Vulcan.

(14:00) Infamous problems.

(21:30) Civ 5's narrator is apparently William Morgan Sheppard, who primarily does voice acting for videogames.

(29:00) Fallen London is a vaguely Lovecraftian web based game.  Despite Geremy's answer to Zach's question, there's totally a character named Jack-of-Smiles.  It's pretty fun!

(40:00) Star Soldier, where the enemies forget they're not in Galaga.  This game has big problems with telegraphing collision boundaries.

(45:00) Thief Town and Spy Party both look pretty interesting as couch multiplayer games.

(49:15) A quick rundown of the power progression.  We also compare it to Gradius and King's Knight.

Episode 96: Doom Song... Oh, Wait, Star Wars [Star Wars: Dark Forces]

This week, Star Wars!  Surprisingly, no Bothans died for the Death Star plans in this.  We talk a lot about what's now officially "Star Wars" since the Disney acquisition, which inevitably leads to Gundam, because space.  Also, blaster rifles!



Time for some fancy downloading!


Show Notes

(01:30) Man, John Williams has done everything.  Also, awakenings!

(03:00) Spoilers for Citizen Kane.  Yup.

(05:00) So, Affected.

(06:30) Microsoft's "not an Oculus" (working name).  Related: PS3 design decisions.

(15:00) The Galaxy Gun!

(16:30) Screencheat?

(20:30) Minovsky Particles have their own trope page.

Episode 95: No, Speed, You Must Not Race in This Race, This Race is Much Too Dangerous! [Super Mario Kart]

Man, Payday 2 is an awesome game.  Oh.  The episode?  Well, come on a super racing adventure that lacks the most iconic item of the franchise!  That's right, we're doing Star Wars Episode 1: Racer, the game that had no podracers!  Not buying it?  Fine, it's Mario Kart.  It made our collective eye bits hurt.

Show Notes

 (00:10) For those who didn't get the title reference.

 (01:30) Flintstones!  We discuss some movie ideas.

(06:00) Old Hitler is an actual shark.

(07:30) That hentai-ish game we mentioned is Nekopara.  Tell us how it is if you played it.

(11:00) Civ 5, guys!  We know you've all been playing it forever, but it's fun!  The AI's logic is a bit confusing at times, though.

(16:30) Mario Kart's DLC, while a bit pricey, is fun.  The track for this game is pretty great.

(23:00) Payday 2's Overkill Software let Lion Game Lion develop their new DLCs.

(29:00) Zach's tale of Microsoft not being a bag of suck for once.

(38:00) Indonesia has a word for a third gender that roughly translates to "lady boy".

(43:00) That Getter Robo sure is a combining robot of some sort.  Also, Geremy has so much stuff going that he's now got a gaming schedule.

(46:00) Bravely Default, you're such a Dracula.

Episode 94: Giant Cave Robots [Bonk's Adventure]

While no robots were harmed in the making of this game, lots of dinosaurs were - with the power of the mind! Specifically, the power to locomote one's head at high speeds into said dinosaurs. It's a useful ability to have, especially after having consumed DELICIOUS MEAT, a force so powerful, the earth trembles under your mighty cranium!



Our download's pretty thick headed, so you might have to wait a while.


Show Notes

(06:20) King Arthur?  It's a game?

(10:30) Kinda wrong about the Santa color thing; turns out he was already red n' white for at least 20 years before Coke.

(16:30) Tabula Rasa is pretty tough.  One random guy on Steam makes a good point about it, though.

(19:00) Gnome Chompski, the worst escort mission.

(21:30) Transistor is pretty cool.  Dust was a fun Metroidvania!

(23:00) Who attacks a furry convention?!

(28:00) We played Speed Runners.  It's fun, guys.  Fantasy Life, not so much.

(32:00) Katie Tiedrich comments on Bravely Default in the blog post.

(41:00) Super Robot Wars Z3: the mech game with EVERYONE.

Amazing Power Serve!  Spike Return!  Spinning Backhand!  Sadly, Peach doesn't yell out tennis attack names in this game, but it's still pretty amusing; you can substitute your own names and annoy your friends with them anyway.  Join us and find out how to volley!



Our download is currently ahead, 40-love.
Show Notes

 (06:20) Ultimate Marvel is finally dying.

(10:30) Future Tactics is pretty cool.

(17:00) League tales.

Episode 90: I Dunno, That Peanut/Popcorn Mix [Baseball]

Remember that time we played Bases Loaded?  Good times!  Turns out there were roughly 20 baseball games for the NES, and this was the first!  Join us as we play Baseball the baseball game about baseball, which mostly involves timing a hit and watching the worst fielders ever fumble for a catch.



Our download is the mercy rule.

Episode 89: Japan is Mine [Nobunaga's Ambition]

Join us as we engage in the grand strategy of building a bigger army than everyone else! Conquer Japan, keep the peasants happy, and try to cause the peasants elsewhere to revolt; you've got a lot to do if you want to be emperor. Rather fortuitously, you have a giant menu at your command so you may direct your kingdom.



Our download is mostly divided into cavalry, so you had best have a lot of guns.


Show Notes

(02:00) Yuuki!

(04:45) Jadeite's small business strategies.

(07:30) Holy melonade, Batman, it's new Homestar!

(11:10) Daniel Boringcliffe on Jimmy Fallon.

(15:00) Spirit bomb of cash Kickstarter?

(20:00) Sweet headband, Light.

(23:15) Gihren's Greed isn't actually made by the same company.

(24:30) That story Zach was talking about.  Also, the guy worshiped by cops.

(26:00) Attempting to explain the main menu of Nobunaga's Ambition.  See those tabs at the top?  The each expand to 5-8 options.

(35:00) Cavalry, riflemen, and infantry and the problems with losing troops every fight.  The bottom line: combat is boring and it's the only way to win.

Episode 88: Seems More Like a Nightmare [NiGHTS into Dreams...]

Dreams are pretty cool, especially flying dreams. Sometimes, though, you get mugged before turning into a flying clown, which can suck. Usually, there'll be a giant lobster or an inflatable villain you have to pop, or sometimes you'll be fighting a giant fish with smaller fish. Dreams are weird... but sometimes a clown is just a clown.



Inserting 20 orbs causes our download to... go slightly faster!


Show Notes

 (00:30) Necrotizing fasciitis: like leprosy, but way worse.

(02:00) Abobo is that one boss from Double Dragon.  I feel like I link to that episode way more than any other.  I could probably write a script to find out.

(03:30) John Wick!  Super good might be an overstatement, but it looks pretty decent based on the trailers.

(07:45) "Jigglypuff to death" is my new favorite compound verb.

(11:30) Don't Starve and Monster Meat.

(15:30) For the interested, here's Zach's Kha'Zix build.

(21:00) That mountain game.  Also, a deeper talk about Five Nights at Freddy's... from Zach!  Still seems to be a jump scare simulator, though...  What Does the Fox Say?

(25:50) Golden Freddy!

(26:30) Speaking of Damned...

(28:00) Slenderpasta.  He likes to walk behind people.

(31:00) 8-player Smash with Mewtwo!

(35:30) The crazy story of this game following Elliot and Claris helping the Nightmaren fight the evil Wizeman.

(37:45) It's hard to describe, but when we say this game isn't really 3D, we're trying to say that you have no agency over moving on one of your 3 axes.  You get full control over X and Y, but Z is left as an unexplored teaser.  Also, you get mugged at the beginning of every level.

(45:00) Bosses and telegraphing: how this game failed at it.
