Typo on Dark Cloud on the time stamp.

Something about colin and brad together just feels… right

Conz Wilson

Coldest take imaginable: the megaman soundtracks are unbelievably amazing

Mr. Weeb

I think the Punching Up reference was how Gene works at the post ...and Micah would eat the newspaper?

Fella

Never expected this kind of episode, but I’m all for it.

Colin was pretty quick to call Nintendo STUBBORN for refusing to embrace achievements but I can assure you that’s not the case. Achievements “just aren’t for them”. Nintendo just “knows themselves” so there’s no point in trying something they know they won’t like.

You’re right with the acclimation to VR Collin. Start small and work your way up. The worst you can do is try and power through motion sickness because then your body will associate VR with being sick. I’ve struggled with motion sickness forever but after a few weeks of intermittent VR use with free camera controls, I can play it all day now without a sweat

Spider Man 2 on PC might be an Nvidia driver issue. I started playing using version 566 and the game played beautifully. I updated drivers to the most recent version and the game became a stutterfest. Rolled it back and it was smooth as butter.

Colin, I agree that ppl shouldn’t get the same trophies if they make the game easier. How then would you argue that those who use guides to obtain trophies (objectively making them easier) deserve the same trophies as those who don’t?

Damn man, the way Colin speaks so passionately about Mega Man makes me want to be a fan like that too. But every time I pick any of the NES games up I get smoked.

Will give this a listen, but gotta say I'm looking forward to thoughts on Switch 2, I don't even know what it would take for Colin to play a game on a different platform at this stage

Colin: Why does everyone keep saying I'm a contrarian? Also Colin: I didn't like Sunny D or Capri Sun growing up Our boy Colin M is just built different.

120 to 130m units for the Switch? Colin you need to get your numbers updated, the Nintendo Switch is now on 150 million units sold and passing the ps2 is just a matter of time.

I was late to Dark Cloud, played it for the first time around 2008-09, but it's easily a top 5 game of all time for me. Mostly nostalgic based, although I'll say it's easily better than Dark Cloud 2.

Girth Brooks

Exactly. I indeed am equating receiving outside help with a diminished accomplishment. Who wouldn’t? If you get an A+ on a math test but were given the answers, it absolutely diminishes the achievement—no question about it. But I don’t understand why you think that means I’m disagreeing with your point about in-game parameters. I think you’re assuming I’m disagreeing, but I’m not. These are two separate arguments.

Michael Candelaria

Not sure if it's been said but I'm a socal dude as well and we definitely had Service Merchandise. That place was fucking sick. Also RIP Fedco, that place had everything included a cafeteria that had good ass food....man I'm fuckin' old.

To the fan write in: comparing current Rocksteady to current Naughty Dog is wild. Especially after Colin has mentioned that people who played the multiplayer game said it was good. Stand down.

Jacob Lesperance

I took Colin up on this challenge. At Christmas during the holiday sale, for $200 Canadian i bought the following games. Batman Arkham games. Metro 2033 Metro Redux Nine Sols Robo Cop Lies of P Wo Long Pacific Drive Trepang 2 Of these I've beaten Nine Sols. Now on Arkham Asylum. Let's see if it takes me to next Christmas to beat all these.

This episode was pretty good overall and fun. Lots of Mega Man talk which is always a good time I definitely agree with both Brad and Colin that all the stores need to clean up shop. Way too much trash not even shovelware on these stores. It clutters things up and makes it harder to find games or at the very least takes visibility away from games deserving of it. I really don’t understand how Colin can like 5 minutes before say “There is too much judging games pre-release” then go on to say Dragon Age looked horrible without playing it and then also say he’s not playing Assassins Creed no matter what it looks like. Aren’t these examples of judging a game before it’s released? Everyone does this - I don’t understand this whole push from Colin and Cog saying we need to stop judging games before playing them when EVERYONE judges a game from multiple aspects from look, to tone of the story and art, trailers, gameplay videos, screenshots etc. When has this become some talking point? It’s just asinine IMO. I’ll also say this whole Conchord didn’t fail because it was woke, it failed because it wasn’t good, isn’t accurate either. The entire games characters were designed with wokeness from the ground up. They took as much thought to give them all their fictional characters pronouns. This affects the feel of the game, the art, the story. To say it doesn’t have any influence is patently not true.

Thanks for spoiling TLOU2 completely outta nowhere Brad. Yeah really appreciate that MAN. Thanks dawg. You rock. So smart. So funny. Really worth the reference you were making.

The 2nd Wily fortress song from Mega Man 3 is so damn good. You can almost feel Mega Man’s courage and a sense of dread all at the same time.
