Fine, the cat’s out of the bag. We get physical (by which I mean defensive and catty), in this, our luckiest and highest numbered podcast yet. This week’s lists are below and are almost of a cliche ilk, I hope it doesn’t offend our more modern listeners. Others will find it refreshingly retro (much like the games we play). We also get down and dirty talking franchise fractions with Oddworld, Assassin’s Creed big dreamin’ and a little white lie from Sega. The game this week, Cave classic DoDonPachi, doesn’t click with me and Max takes it personal. It gets ugly, then sad, then happy, then really ugly, now we’re not talking. Next week is a personal fav, The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. Show notes and contact info after the break.
