Wonderpod Episode 158

This week’s Wonderpod wanders all over the map. To the point that I am not even sure how to describe it in the show post ramble. It all has a video game theme, but we delve into some deeper topics. While bringing back topics from the previous weeks shows. We even have a drive by […]

Wonderpod Episode 130

This week on Wonderpod. Chris is back for more. Can last weeks adventures with him be topped? Not sure, but we sure tried. Between fart jokes and speculating about Swedes we talked about video games. Give it a listen there is something for everyone.

Reviewing the Audience

I see the Mass Affect nonsense has now spawned a few more articles on games journalism. Questioning how reviewers can give ME3 such high scores, when the ending sucked harder than a level one rogue wearing tap shoes. As fun as it would be join the vapid chorus spotting nonsense about reviewers blowing corporate overlords. […]

The Fantastic World of Japanese Games – Episode 3

Far too often a game simply won’t be released in America because…well, it’s predecessor failed. Now for me, this is never acceptable, but I do understand. If a game has a huge following in Japan AND it’s an RPG, but it doesn’t really take off in America, they’re more likely to continue the series in […]

TCR Comix: Hauntin’ Ain’t Easy, Man…

You remember our old pal Ghostie, right? Being a Sheet Ghost hard work, you know. They get no dang dang respect anymore. Sometimes, if they won’t give you respect, you gotta take it by force. Sometimes, a Sheet Ghost has to punk a bitch out!

AIW Absolution 6 Review

This was my first time to watch an AIW show. I started out being very intrigued by all the promos at the beginning. I know some of the wrestlers, but I am not familiar with their characters. This gave me a brief overview. What it reminded me of was the UFC product. Fighter #1 doing […]
