Podcast Update & Random Thoughts

I've uploaded all the most recent podcasts. Show number 98 is up. As is Top 5 2009 Backlog Games. I've also uploaded a new Dinnertime up that Brad and I recorded a few days ago. And if you've seen my last post, I uploaded a recording from the Richard Garriott talk that I attended. As a reminder we'll be back on schedule again with three recordings this weekend. The normal show which is number 99. We'll record a new top 5 as well as Nick's new podcast The Revival Club, this month featuring Oddworld Stranger's Wrath.

I forgot to mention that on this week's DinnerTime the cute girl from the Chinese Restaurant was there to be our waitress. It's worth a list just to hear what she sounds like and let your imagination run wild.


Now for some random thoughts...

I heard Tommy Tallarico is working on the music for Sonic and Black Knight for Wii. I'm glad to see he's doing well and still finding work during these economic times.

After whooping up on Sandra last week at Arcade UFO, I've been interested in playing Arcana Heart again. Suggoi! Arcana Heart 2 looks to be releasing April 6 in Japan. I'm seriously debating on importing this one. Only problem, NO ONE TO PLAY WITH. Also, Anime art for Aino has changed significantly. I'm not sure if I like it.

Final Fantasy Chronicles: Echos of Time. I am so confused about this title. I've ALWAYS wanted a good non-MMO multiplayer Final Fantasy. This is not it. 40 bucks for a DS game or 49 buck for a Wii game with DS graphics, I have no clue what's going on.

The Gurren Lagann packaging is a total clusterfuck. Basically you can buy it on 6 discs with 6 dvd cases or you can buy it on 6 discs with 3 dvd cases. I'll upload pictures on another post which I will called, "Collecting, An Art"

Finally, I getting really excited about download games and indie games. Hit me with your best shot. I want to know every game worth downloading, Indie or Console Download.

Thanks,
David

Savage Moon came out on PSN today. I heard good things so decided to go for it and so far it's pretty awesome. It's basically a tower defence game set in a Starship Troopers kinda world.
I hope I'm able to finish since I found Pixeljunk Monsters insanely hard. That's probably just me though, non-turn based strategy games of any kind are my greatest weakness.

Aquaria. =) Brad needs to install it on your computer anyway. I can't say enough good things about it...

BitBlot kinda did a partial disband after release 'cause the (Only) two members are working on separate projects. Alec Holowka's next project is a spiritual successor to Aquaria in development:

A good indie game out there for the PC I know is Gish. It's a little on the older side buts it is pretty good. You can find it on the STEAM pc network.
