Smash Bros. at EVO.

A slightly longer than usual episode features long (spoiler free!) expositions about Telltale’s The Walking Dead, Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us, some talk about the new StreetPass Plaza games, as well as your regular news, listener mail, and a top ten list of the best Mario power-ups! Thanks for listening.

Cho-Aniki. Yup.

Episode 48 sees the gang discussing all of their gaming for the week, including some talk about the art of game design relating to Fallout 3, the phallic eroticism of Cho-Aniki, and the grating sounds of Luke’s voice from Professor Layton. Listener questions and news make their return, and our wrapping-up discussion is about genres that we thought were under-represented last generation.

F… Falco?

If you like hearing people talk about Star Fox, this is the episode for you! The last 20 minutes of it, anyway. The rest of the episode has your regular news, the things we played, some good discussion of New Super Mario Bros U. and New Super Luigi U, as well as Jack’s impressions on his brand new PS3. Enjoy!

Good ol’ Laval.

The three musketeers of gaming podcasts had to schedule an emergency Thursday episode, or risk missing their first week ever! This episode features discussions about Animal Crossing’s localization, a lengthy praise-ologue of Mario Galaxy 2, your regular news, and a whole heaping giant pile of listener mail. To top it off, we discuss our (and your) overall impressions of Nintendo at E3 this year.

Probably the best photo from the day.

This final E3 2013 episode has impressions of Killer is Dead, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, some final thoughts on Super Mario 3D World, and much more. As always we get your listener mail and go over some categorized favorites at the end of the show, like our favorite booth attendants!

I took this picture. It was glorious.

The second of our E3 2013 podcast specials is slightly more focused… but still a little odd. We give our impressions of Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies, Killer is Dead, Bayonetta 2, and Batman: Arkham Origins (which we liked), as well as some thoughts on Mario 3D World, LEGO: Friends, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution , (which we were more tepid towards). Your listener mail rounds out this one.

sigh…

The gang craps all over Super Mario 3D World, loves Pikmin 3, praises Platinum Games, and gets into the most intense laughing fit the world has ever known. We’d like to apologize in advance for the length, the content, and the potentially loud snores from Laura as she fell asleep halfway through.

It’s the pre-E3 podcast, which means predictions predictions predictions! But first, we’ve got our “what we played” for the week, your regular news (Laura tries her hand at some yet again), and your listener questions! Lots of stuff to go through this week so get listenin’!

This picture is how I feel about our podcast.

It’s a long one, but a good one for you this week! Some pointed discussions during “what we played” start us off, and we continue onwards with a silly news section (with Laura trying her hand at some news!), a fantastic discussion of Sonic Lost World, and a truly meaty talk about The Starship Damrey for the book club. Good stuff all around, complete with listener mail to boot.

Dunno. I just needed something to be the picture.

The beginning of this episode (about the first 25 minutes) sound really weird because Austin doesn’t know what he’s doing and messed up the mic. It’s still listenable, but the phonetic focus is on Laura and Austin and Jack sound like they’re far away. If you really can’t stand it, skip to 25 minutes in! This episode features a discussion on what Retro Studios is working on, some Zelda timeline discussion, and a long talk about graphics and their impact on games. Enjoy!
