Episode 347: Final FantasyEpisode 347: Final Fantasy
This week’s podcast features the Gaming Flashback of Final Fantasy VI, which takes up a third of the podcast as Paul and Jordan enthuse about the Japanese roleplaying game at length – so much so, that some news items were skipped over due to running length. Jonah prepares for his trip to PAX East 2014 for the weekend. He also proclaims Emperor Palpatine dancing in Kinect Star Wars the best thing to ever happen for Star Wars.
This week’s news includes:
- Amazon says FireTV will boost mid-market games
- Borderlands 2 Vita bundle hits on May 6, game launches May 13
- Molyneux predicts Kinect-less Xbox One
- Microsoft looking into Xbox 360 emulation through Xbox One
A lot of Listener Feedback this week, and the Question of the Week is “What mobile games have you played recently?”
Episode 263: Play Alter EgoEpisode 263: Play Alter Ego
This week lacks Paul, but has plenty of good show, as Jordan refuses to believe in the magic of the old adventure game Alter Ego. This week’s game of the week is inspired by the Kickstarter reboot, as the gang discusses the classic Battle Chess.
As for the news:
- Aussie Diablo III preorders not getting refunded from GAME
- CliffyB praises Dark Souls multiplayer, urges Japanese devs to take notice

Episode 399: On the PrecipiceEpisode 399: On the Precipice
Only one more episode til the landmark episode that will see Paul ending his tenure as a regular podcast host in this lengthy episode after the week off. The banter is so off the charts, over an hour had to be cut and will be available in a future outtakes episode – as Paul and Scott agree to do a special Dr. Who episode in the near future too. Oh, and Jonah lost his day job.
The news this week includes:
- Nintendo names a new leader after sudden death of CEO
