    Episode 016 – Weapon of Choice

    Just how many different ways can you kill stuff in video games? Mark and Sebastian don’t have an answer to that but they sure know their favorite ways of doing it. Yes, this is another one of Bit For Byte’s infamous lists and this time it’s all about weapons. Swords, guns, gravity guns, bike chains, it’s all here. We also catch up on gaming in the form of the Enslaved and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow demos, Space Invader Infinity Gene for XBLA, ninja bear woes in Red Dead Redemption and a special Chinatown tale of a Super Street Fighter IV match between our very own Mark Robson and top ranked player Arturo Sanchez. Our trusty news segment focuses on Valve’s Team Fortress 2 in-game store, the Gears of War 3 delay and the Nintendo 3DS’ pricing among others.

    Episode 013 – Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game

    Ah, the woes of audio recording! Originally meant to be a two-punch review of both Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game and the indie darling Limbo, our newest episode fell victim to some recording hijinks and, halfway through our Limbo discussion, the Elders of Podcasting deemed that it was not to be and Sebastian’s part of the audio was suddenly cut off, rendering the segment unusable. And so, in the immortal words of Arnold, “it’s not ah twofer!” But our in-depth SPvsTW:TG review was salvaged and so was our news segment where we talk Metroid Metal, Arkham City, Bioshock Infinite and Catherine among others. And don’t worry, our discourse over Limbo will be re-recorded and posted in an upcoming episode. Listen to the episode below or subscribe here: News— Bioshock Infinite reveal trailer. Metroid Metal’s newest. Atlus’ high definition RPG: Catherine. Steven Merchant in Portal 2. Game Informer details on Batman: Arkham City.

    Episode 012 – Catching Up

    Though it seems like ages since the last episode, there hasn’t been a shortage of gaming done by our intrepid heroes and, in lieu of a more traditional review or list episode, Mark and Sebastian decide to sit back and talk about what’s been played over the past few weeks. There’s Alan Wake and Red Dead Redemption, Limbo and Final Fantasy XIII and, as is to be expected, more Super Street Figther IV and more Team Fortress 2. We also dive into EVO as well as Capcom’s flurry of announcements at the San Diego Comic Con among others. A lot of ground is covered here, folks. We also upgraded(?) to a Mac Book Pro, yes, it’s very fancy. However, not all the recording kinks have been worked out yet, so apologies in advance for a slightly less than normal audio quality.

    Episode 011 – E3 2010 Edition

    E3 has happened. Press conferences, motion controls, downloadable games, 3D with glasses, 3D without glasses, cynicism, nostalgia and, among others, a freakin’ circus. Literally. There was so much ground to cover that Mark and Sebastian couldn’t do it by themselves so let’s give a round of applause to our very first special guest, Mr. Andrew Roberts. We rip on each of the big 3′s conferences, delve into a number of 3rd party titles and lament the incoming drain on our wallets. Three distinct viewpoints on the biggest event in gaming. Should be fun. And buckle up ’cause it’s a mammoth episode. Listen to the episode below or subscribe here: News– E3…DUH!
