Brentalfloss is the only one of these guys I'm familiar with and that only a little bit. But sounds like you knew what was going on and had a good time. Awesome. I'd like to go to a convention sometime, though I'd probably find it a tad overwhelming. But if we can work out the logistics (and save up the money), my wife and I are hoping to go to PAX East one of these years.
I like the variety you've brought to the episode themes, Julian. This was another good one. Kind of sad to look at that list and realize how few of those games I've actually played (Ocarina of Time and the MGS remake, Twin Snakes...if that counts lol). As for suggestions, I think it'd be neat to do an episode that compared songs from series' first games with songs from more recent entries. Mario and Zelda are easy choices but there are plenty of others. Castlevania, Sonic, Final Fantasy, to name a few. Heck, Metal Gear Solid is 15 years old at this point. Lots of possibilities.
Wow, you are busy! I haven't been doing much of anything lately because first we moved then my parents came to visit and then my wife and went to an amusement park this last weekend with some friends from another state. We hadn't seen them in quite a while and had a good time but man, lots of driving to get there and back!
I have seen the first couple of episodes of Death Note, though, and really liked it. Hopefully I'll get back to it sometime. You're not the first person to tell me how good it is.
I always play Brawl with a GameCube controller. I tried the Wiimote and NO THANK YOU! Lol
I'm pretty sure the MSX originals have been made available before but at this point this collection will definitely be the easiest way to play them.
I definitely wanna play The Last of Us, though I think I'll wait for a price drop or two. I still gotta play Uncharted 3, actually lol. And Business Time...bahahaha
You're not the first person I've seen mention this game. I definitely like the dark theme too. Will have to check it out.
I imagine Kojima has more ill will towards the NES port of Metal Gear than he does for Snake's Revenge, and he's proven before that he can laugh at himself. It'd be awesome to have the entire series available like that, and thanks to Peace Walker we know they can bring the PSP games over. Maybe a collection of the side games? If any series will get such complete treatment, it will be MGS.
Body Harvest is one of the few N64 games I'd like to play which I still haven't. Glad your games worked after all.
Thank you! That's exactly what I wanted to hear lol. I agree about the PS1 games though. I understand why they couldn't just throw them on the Blu-rays but surely it could not have cost much to print a CD with the games on it. As it is, seems like a bonus for buying new. It's hard to fault them for that but it keeps this from truly being the definitive collection of the series (if you don't count Snake's Revenge, MGS GBC, and the other PSP games, that is).
