TFGT 22: Slender U? Nintendo Systems and Overrated Indie Horror Games!

TFGT 22: Slender U? Nintendo Systems and Overrated Indie Horror Games!

Dave and Carlos scrutinize Slender, the most overrated pile o' crap "indie horror game" ever, and openly wonder about this "Wii U" thing they've been hearing about. They also talk about indie games in general, ponder Limbo, chat about emulation, and hype Double Dragon Neon.

POSTSCRIPT: We erroneously claim two things about the Wii U: 1) that the NA release lacks a sensor bar, which is incorrect as both versions include the bar; 2) that Friend Codes are still numbers, which we don't actually yet know. Our sincerest apologies for the misinformation.

Apologies for sound quality/bumpy recording on this otherwise very cool episode! Dave and Carlos welcome friends Kiki, Po, and now-graduated Isaac (from episode 11) for a roundtable where we talk about EA's latest "no 1P" decision, games as art, challenges both self-imposed and scripted in-game, and Kickstarter.

TFGT 20: Beyond Games and Mere Mortality


Gaming and more! Dave and Carlos talk about RPG inventory systems and the general power/balance of RPG items in general. They also shit all over Final Fantasy, talk breast physics in Dark Cloud 2 (which Monica doesn't have but totally should), berate the bad Darksiders 2 PC port, bust all over Persona 4 Arena, and go over Dave's wish list of upcoming games. And, likely a mainstay: some talk about forms of entertainment that (gasp!) aren't games (TV, film, etc.). Carlos thinks anime sucks, where Dave does not.

TFGT 19: Snippets and Doodads


This episode is comprised of snippets and the like, captured both outside of the podcast and from a couple episodes that were never released. Topics include obscene Microsoft/Sony patching costs, Double Dragon, Zelda combat, the Olympics, bullshit round robin tourney formats (including soccer), Rise of the Triad, Mists of Pandaria, a new (!) Sega Dreamcast game called Gunlord, Ouya, and Melty Blood. A good episode to listen to with the lights off. Possibly nude. Sexually.

Roundtable Reloadvania all up in this fizbang. Be talkin' smack 'bout reloading weapons, jibba-jabba all over lives systems, talkin' high-low on the down-low alignment Ogre Battle nonsense, nuttin' all over Metroidvania's sexy lips, and puppehs barkin' all over the background an' junk.

TFGT 16: Enter the Sandbox


Dave, Carlos, and two friends talk about sandbox games, including their societal impact. Carlos doesn't think Minecraft is a game, even though he totally can't back that up to save his life. Watch him get shanked maybe.
