Episode 005 Side B – How Did You Not Feel That Come Out?

Side B of Ep.5 sees us discussing our favorite gaming moments. We all had a lot to gush about and many of our moments overlapped each other. We remember games like the Metal Gear Solid series, Super Metroid, Commodore 64 gaming and many more.

If you have any of your favorite moments we missed or want to wax nostalgic with the rest of us, comment below or email 8bitbar@gmail.com.

Episode 005 Side A – Two Things I Like, Ninjas and Dancing

We partake in our RetroActive Challenge this week and it’s a miracle one of us wasn’t killed by another this week. Chulip proves to be Jason’s hell, Ashleigh laments about Godai’s bad game design, Matt gets lost in Deadly Towers, and Wallace finds recreational drug use appealing after Wally Bear and the No! Gang. Suffice to say our remakes of the games where more heavy handed punishments.

Games discussed this week: I Made A Game With Zombies In It, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Champions Online, Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazzard, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Silent Hill: Homecoming, Ninjatown

We also have a new show format. What we’re playing and RetroActive will compose Side A and our main topic will be Side B now.

Next week’s RetroActive will be Time Lord for the NES, and for Ep007 we are taking listener suggestions. So the first person to comment or email us with the retro game they want played and talked about will be picked. If you have any comments or questions, comment below or email us at 8bitbar@gmail.com

Episode 004 Side B – Its Got Zack in it!

Here’s part 2 of Episode 4. Herein we finish our discussion about the ESRB and launch into our RetroActive segment where we discuss a God Hand-like Battletoads.

Next week, we are handling RetroActive differently. We each are playing a distinctively shitty game and then proposing our remake of said game. The games being played are:

Ashleigh-Godai: Elemental Force

Jason-Chulip

Wallace-Wally Bear and the No-Gang

Matt: Deadly Towers

If you have an idea for a 5th game, submit it in the comments section for this ep, or send an email to 8bitbar@gmail.com with RetroActive in the subject heading. Our topic next week will be Best Gaming Moments, so if you have a particular gaming moment you want to share, once again post a comment, or email us at 8bitbar@gmail.com.
