Episode 204: Resident Evil


When too many people go missing, it's time to call in the experts.  When the experts go missing, it's time to call in... S.T.A.R.S. ... !  Join Jill and Chris as they explore a mansion infested with badness.  A sort of evil, one might say, in residence at said mansion.  Fight through undead abominations, tricky puzzles, and pre-rendered backgrounds resulting in clunky camera angles to save your friends... and yourself!  Though, there's less fighting and more puzzle solving, so maybe you'll want to bring some quick quips so you can keep up with Guybrush.



Here's a download.  It might be handy if you, a master of downloading, take it with ya.


Show Notes

(01:00) Thanks Audience!  This Podcast was almost a Jill Sandwich!

(18:15) The Super NES Mini, next to a copy of Persona 5 and a Nintendo 3DS for scale.

(22:00) Happy Death Day!  It's genuinely good!

(27:45) Run Like Hell is an Xbox/PS2 title similar to Resident Evil.  Old enough nobody remembers it but not quite old enough to be of interest to this podcast.

(28:45) The awkward-ass opening cut scene of the original Resident Evil, almost as awkward as us trying to transition into talking about it!

(30:00) Chris Redfield: Boulder Puncher

(47:15) Ranking Evil


Next time on Last Time, Alex Kidd in Shinobi World!

Episode 203: Kirby's Dream Course


Answering the age old question "what if we put our ball-like character into a situation where his ball-ness is a useful feature", this week's game is a unique twist on minigolf.  As Kirby mysterious maneuvers himself around the world, discover a host of small mechanics that eventually interlock into some truly bizarre courses.  Just kill all your golf-foes in the correct order, and save... Dreamland?  Your putting average?



A hole-in-one here requires a trickshot off the download.


Show Notes


(03:00) Tyler is playing Splatoon again.

(03:30) TSM still employs both Leffin and ZERO, though ZERO has been less dominant in recent years than Geremy implies.

(06:00) Zach has been playing League of Legends, because it is a time of year.

(14:00) Geremy has been playing Dokkan Battle and that alone!  World Tournament shenanigans abound.

(17:00) The assignment!?  Already!?  It's Kirby’s Dream Course!

(32:00) Speed Ranking!

Episode 202: Castlevania Dracula X


The last game of our remake-themed month, this one's... special.  Once again, Ryu Anime Belmont dons his dramatic gloves and whip and sets out to save the inexplicably ninja Maria, who refuses to help him this time.  This is, really, a wholly different game than Rondo of Blood, but does it hold up on its own?



Whip right to that download.


Show Notes

(03:00) BIRDEMIC.

(04:00) With feathers.

(10:00) I'll be the one to say it... this looks like it belongs in G Gundam.  Unrelated: I want a Let's Play of Zach doing Cuphead.

(17:00) Zach's also been delving into Papers Please, as recommended by Yahtzee.

(21:00) Some preliminary thoughts on Dead by Daylight.

(26:00) Talking a bit about our experience with SkyFactory.

(31:00) Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor.  It's a weird... life/chore simulator?  Highly recommended for an odd experience if it's on sale.

(38:30) We talked about a lot of interesting games on this episode, but if I can only recommend one, it has to be Clandestine.

(47:00) Finally getting around to Dracula X.

(59:45) Rankings of Blood... X!

Episode 201: Mario 64 DS


What do you get when you try to control a game originally meant for an analog stick with a d-pad?  Basically the same game, but somehow a lot worse.  Maybe it's because the whole thing smells oddly of garlic; Wario is just too well rendered in this game.  Join us as we hop, skip, and constipatedly hover over the familiar environs of Peach's Castle's magic paintings.



More hat replacements than you can shake a download at.


Show Notes

(00:00) Dokkan Battle has conquered all!

(11:00) Zach also played some Fate Grand Order to compare to Dokkan Battle, the greatest game of all.

(13:30) He’s also been playing Xenoverse 2: Electric Boogaloo

(18:00) Saiyan Naming Conventions, all hail Dragon Ball Z!

(21:00) Tyler Finished The Long Dark and West of Loathing

(24:30) Geremy started Sonic Mania and Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle but likely won’t finish either.

(34:00) The Assignment, Super Mario 64 DS.

(46:30) Super Mario Ranking DS.
