Episode 186: As Exciting As A Post Office [Postal 2]


When everyone around you is a terrible person, sometimes the only option is to respond in kind.  Or patiently wait in line, but that takes forever.  In a game whose tagline was ""Remember, it's only as violent as you are!", it's really only as violent as you are patient.  Seeming to take most of its cues from the, at the time, much more controversial "ban all video games" political scene, this game attempts to poke fun at people whose morals need to be applied to everyone but themselves and...  Well, that's it, really.  Everyone else is collateral.  Have fun!(?)


Downloads are probably more effective silencers than cats.


Show Notes

(03:15) Sm4sh DLC was apparently a bit cheaper than Tyler remembered.

(06:30) The Switch Pro controller looks like a 360 controller with a better D-pad, but less ergonomic styling.

(16:45) Because at least one of us keeps forgetting, Cross Ange is the show about scantily clad women fighting dragons with mechs, and the cast makes an appearance in Super Robot Wars V.

(25:00) PERSONA!  Is having a ranged weapon better than an Evoker?

(41:30) Brief gender politics and BOTW.  Since we mention it, Aaron Diaz (most recently of Dresden Codak), sketched up a nifty Zelda idea where the eponymous princess is a techno-mage a few years back.

(51:30) Getting around to Postal.

(1:02:00) Rankings!  Hint: it's bad.

Zach's "Mostly" full thoughts on Breath of the Wild


    So this week on the Podcast we talked Breath of the Wild and I went on what could only be charitably called a Semi-coherent rant on the game. Rather obviously the whole of my personal feelings on the game didn't come through so I'd like to take this time to go more into depth as to why I think it is the single most overrated game I've ever played.

Episode 185: Monster Bro [Wonder Boy in Monster Land]


There comes a time in every young, skateboarding cave-boy's life to pick up the sword and shield of his ancestors and deliver a beatdown on some monsters.  Saving princesses is already second nature to young Wonder Lad, and it's time for the lad to become a boy!  Explore a surprisingly metroidvania landscape before it was really known as a thing, and try to figure out how ceramic armor works so well against swords.

Show Notes

(02:00) This is what blast processing was. Very technical.

(06:00) Scrooge Vs Shovel Knight https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUG5LUHlgq4

(10:00) The Assignment: The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. That came out in 1987 right? Potential spoilers.

(53:00) The actual assignment, Wonder Boy in Monster Land

(1:03:30) Geremy lied; Aladdin and the King of Thieves was not theatrically released, but Robin Williams did return to play Genie.

(1:04:00) Ranking Time

Episode 184: Woah. I Know Kung Fu. [Flying Dragon: The Secret Scroll]


Embark on an epic kung fu odyssey to avenge your master.  Juan, truly the best teacher, wrote all of his secrets down on scrolls, but never gave any to his only student, Ryuhi.  When they all get stolen, Ryuhi finds the best scroll, like no scroll ever was, and goes on a killing spree to get the other ones back.  Righteous!



Dragon download straight to the face!


Show Notes

(01:30) Legit promotional material put out for Kung Fu Panda.

(03:00) Probably the BTAS episode Geremy's talking about.

(04:15) Justice League vs. BTAS. Mr. Sims rants about how got the intro is.

(15:00) Fox fun!

(18:00) I'm not linking Galgun again.  You have Google.

(25:00) Because Fire Emblem needs more bunnies.

(34:30) Not dying is hard.

(42:00) The ZeRo match Tyler was talking about, if you can stand ZeRo's voice.

(37:45) Not our poll, but we should contribute to SCIENCE! Pick the best Starburst.

(53:00) Kung Fu Time!

(1:02:00) How does this game rank up?
