Episode 17 – The Portable Gaming Special

We’re Cam-less this week, so while he’s in crystal meth rehab, we catch up on the latest Squenix Final Fantasy releases and the entire history of portable video gaming. And Logan’s Run, for whatever reason. Go Paralympics.

Virtual Boy. All your friends will want it.

The Main Reason Blades of Steel Made the List

Hidden somewhere between the second and third periods…

For Anyone Unaware of Amped 3…

In case you were wondering why a game like Amped 3 would make it so high on our top 20 sports games, here’s the ending:

The ending is but the beginning. Play this shit. It’s just that fun.

Episode 16 – Top 20 Sports Games

In the spirit of the Olympics (which we’re fucking watching from the fucking balcony motherfuckers!), we countdown the greatest sports games of all time. If you disagree…well, you’re wrong, so bugger off. We’re the experts here. We have the booze to prove it.

Featuring music from Tokyo Police Club, Wilco, and Deadmau5.

Episode 15 – Phantasy Star Sex Adventures

The Gamesters size up the days of the Dragon Warrior, Final Fantasy and Phantasy Star before they were fun. We lost a ton of footage at the beginning. Sorry if we sound bitter. And I still can’t explain the Good Charlotte. There’s no excuse.

Stephen Lea Sheppard, we await your reply.

Featuring music from Indian Wars, Passion Pit and The Klaxons.

Episode…14? Are we there yet? Whatever, Zelda and shit.

The Gamesters talk Zelda shop for all it’s worth, what with new game releases and such.

In loving memory of our musical hero, garage punk pioneer, Jay Reatard.

For Jay. A garage-punk hero.

Episode 13 – The Best of 2009

Well here we go. The best of 2009. 11 categories, a full-proof voting system, random telephoned guest stars, the best shitty booze Bryan’s apartment has to offer. Prepare to get your nuts smashed.

Stephen Lea Sheppard: We have a standing offer of $5.00 if you choose to guest-star on our podcast. That’s a cheque made out to you, Stephen Lea Sheppard, to spend however you see fit. The choice is yours. We are waiting in the Lower Mainland.

Featuring music by The Almighty Defenders, Frog Eyes and new Animal Collective.

Episode 12 – Officially way too drunk to even be posting this shit (sorry for the mic noises)

So we talk about…Dragon Age? Was that it? We were way too drunk for this one. Hence the constant microphone noises.

I needed a picture, so um...yeah...Mario Lopez...

Featuring Caleb, a dude who says stuff…

Featuring music from Rick Springfield, The Exploding Hearts and N.A.S.A. The first one’s the best one, trust me.

The Greatest Sega Genesis Commercial of All Time

I can’t believe I went months without seeing this. I’m usually on top of the Lonely Island’s efforts.

This might be their finest.

Episode 11 – The Dry P#$%y Express (What?)

Episode 11 has Max, Cam and Bryan exploring the history of love in video games, and a history of fucked up disturbing moments to cap it off. We compare Call of Duty 4.2 with Uncharted 2 for game of the year status, and conclude absolutely nothing.

Featuring the most hung-over version of Cam you’ll ever hear.

Also featuring music by Girls, Bend Sinister, and Deerhoof.
