When there are floating heads

Who you gonna call?
Star Soldier!
Though, the floating space heads do seem awfully productive. Maybe they contract at reasonable rates?

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.


Next time on Last Time, Fire Emblem!  Tactical Aristocracy Action!
