PSP #259: Star Wars: Battlefront / Fallout 4 / Oreshura / App Crap...

The force is strong in this episode and the humor is weak, but we all know that Marc's humor is...an acquired taste and, thankfully, no one is ever forced to endure it (but countless people do). If y'all haven't already put two and two together--that would give you four and nothing more, which is kind of a bore--Marc talks about Star Wars: Battlefront--which is kind of a big deal--and touches a bit more on Fallout 4 before eventually hitting some anime (with hipster insults) and ending with random app chatter. Cheers and enjoy the show.

PSP #258: Fallout 4 / Snoopy's Grand Adventure / Oreshura / Divinity: Original Sin...

Y'all better put on your seat belt and keep it tight 'cause today's show contains the most anticipated game of the year... Snoopy's Grand Adventure! That's right, folks, Marc peas their pants and goes do'h(!) nuts talkin' about the game y'all have surely been waiting months and months to hear about; oh yeah, they also talk about Fallout 4, which, I guess, is also kind of a big deal. But wait, there's more! Marc also talks about how they've fallen out (har-har) of love with Divinity: Original Sin and how they don't really know what to think of the anime, Oreshura--which y'all can watch for free [with ads] on thee ol' Crunchyroll. Cheers and enjoy the show.

PSP #257: Eden of the East / Gems of War / Divinity: Original Sin...

Today's show starts off on a bit of a weird note and ends on an even weirder note, all while being filled with random bits of [typical] weirdness in between. Weirdness aside, Marc starts off the show talkin' about Pandora--which they've only started using this week--and how they actually, kinda, not-so-surprisingly, like it. After closing that box of a topic, they review the highly-acclaimed anime, Eden of the East, and end with two very different games: Gems of War and Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition.

PSP #256: Xbox One Backward Compatibility / Guilty Pleasures...

In today's shorter-than-usual episode, Marc starts off with a bit of chatter about guilty pleasures and why they don't make sense--come on, people, if y'all find something pleasurable, why feel guilty about it, eh--and then goes over the full list of backward compatible games launching this Thursday when backward compatibility arrives for everyone (not just those in the beta) on thee ol' Xbox One. Cheers and enjoy the show (and happy birthday, again, to my most favorite Beth!). P.S., Kate & Leopold is the ship and I don't feel guilty at all!

PSP #255: Mobile Gaming / The Perfect Insider / Love: The Fox...

Today's episode starts off with a snippet of what it's like playing Heads Up! with Marc's father, then transitions to the excitement that is each and every Half Price Books sale and what it's like switching from Android to iOS. And then, after all that nonsense has gone in one ear and out the other, Marc talks about the very interesting anime, The Perfect Insider, and gushes over the graphic novel, Love: The Fox--which everyone should buy 'cause it's beautiful and wonderful and beautiful and just the best, the absolute best.

PSP #254: Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition / Organ Trail: Complete Edition / The Problem with Anime Shorts...

Marc follows up one of the best episodes yet with another strong (but shorter) episode full of enthusiasm and reasons why Rob (of Pixelated Radio fame) would be the worst companion if the zombie apocalypse ever came to fruition--he really would be the worst, the absolute worst. That said, the actual crap talked about on today's show includes the fantastic Divinity: Original Sin, the nostalgic-rich Organ Trail, and Marc's reason for not liking anime shorts, or, better put, the reason why Marc and anime shorts work together about as well as M. Night Shyamalan and Avatar: The Last Airbender. Cheers and enjoy the show.

PSP #253: Halo: Combat Evolved / Steve Jobs / Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad...

Today's show is full of changes and surprises and bouts of nonsense sprinkled with various bleeps and bloops and, on top of all that, Marc is joined, briefly, by his father as they [attempt to] talk about Steve Jobs, not the man, but the movie; though, it's kind of hard to not talk about the man when the movie is all about him, so, yeah. When Marc isn't "talking" with his father about Steve Jobs, they talk about their frustrations with the end of Halo: Combat Evolved and how they're still enjoying the anime, Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad.

PSP #252: Blood Bowl 2 / Halo / System Shock: Enhanced Edition / Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad...

Marc launches right into a tangent of nonsense about phones and pretty people working at Best Buy on today's episode before eventually returning to the world of Blood Bowl 2, reviewing the mashup of American football--throw in some Rugby, too--and the Warhammer universe ('cause who doesn't want to play football with a team made up of giant rat men, a.k.a., the Skaven, a.k.a., the "Splinters"). Once they're done slurping the last droplets of blood from their nonexistent bowl, they go back in time with some classic Halo and even classic(er) System Shock: Enhanced Edition. And then, of course, as always, they end with anime, reviewing the first half of Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad and touching on a handful of seasonal anime--expect some disappointment.

PSP #251: FORCED / Halo: Combat Evolved / Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day...

The last episode was the (should have been) very special 250th episode; however, this here 251st episode feels much more special, in large part because Marc, for a change, actually spent way more time--a few minutes or so, compared to the usual zero--preparing for the show, instead of just diving in, headfirst, not knowing if the podcast pool was full of piranhas or not. So, what did they talk about on this special (but not actually special) episode of this very "special" podcast? Well, they start with a tangent about credit cards before eventually talking, in length, about the arena-based hack 'n' slash RPG, FORCED--which is surprisingly not too shabby--after that bit o' nonsense, they hit some Halo, then change directions with the critically acclaimed and much-loved anime, Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day, and end with a smattering of currently airing anime.

PSP #250: Video Game Buffet / The Deer God / The World God Only Knows II / Comet Lucifer...

In what should be an extra special episode full of surprises and loveliness and beards and oatmeal for everyone, Marc loses their mind as they try and find something to play, playing game after game after game in the process, leaving a path of destruction in their wake. While they struggle to find a game to make their day, no struggle is had when it comes to finding anime that is more than just ok. And, if nothing else, all this nonsense at least allowed us all to experience and "enjoy" just a wee bit of rhyming. Cheers and enjoy the rest of your day. And #2: if y'all have actually listened to all 250 episodes of this here podcast, well, I pity y'all and your inability to dial 1-800-COLLECT 'cause y'all are in dire need of recollecting your sanity.
