Where do we go from here? This week’s game, MDK 2, was enjoyed handily by both parties, and then unceremoniously not completed by either. Max did get enough time carved out of his busy week to play just enough Zelda so he could talk shit. I get my fill of Privates, which was both a mouthful and handful to say the least. Xbox 360 gets more indecipherable Japanese Shmups and we ramble one about the best selling 3rd Party Wii games. None are acceptable. 20% involve Mario racing Sonic at 4 year intervals. In the category of good news, Irrational is making a new Bioshock I want to have sex with and MW2 has the capacity to make all gaming free forever (warning: hyperbole). Listen, enjoy, tell a friend.
No, this isn’t our one year, anniversary. This week is our birthday episode in that both of us have officially survived one more revolution around the sun. So, you know, it’s our birthday. Talk washes all around this ep, starting in San Andreas, taking a pit stop in Limbo, hanging out in Hyrule and finishing off in Trials. A lackluster top 10 list actually reveals a top 8. News is faint and depressing. After the sweet tunes we get on about my least favorite game so far, Metal Gear Solid. Sorry Kojima-philes, I can’t hang. Max talks it up enough for both of us. Next week’s game is a bit of a mystery, even to me, but play along anyway. Notes and contact info after the break.

The first, and in my mind most important thing, to happen this episode, we now know how to begin the show. You’re all little monsters. Not Howie Mandel/Fred Savage style, Portal 2 style. This week’s show is fun, talking about how, without any good reason I continue to play Zelda and Max trudges through even more San Andreas. Top 10 list was a doozie, Licensed Games. In a feat of best-friendsmanship we both guess the other’s #1 pick. Then talk of news, mostly just Capcom fighters and Shank‘s imminent arrival. After the break we have Zelda talk and a promise to keep it to a minimum and we go on. Deets and all that after the break.
We Download, you know, directly.
