Sigh.
A wonderful (and tardy) SB tradition. We talk about Ubisoft's subtle pro-life agenda, shrug's unsubtle date-life agenda, copyright law, and games that received lower scores than God Hand on ign.com.
Oh and something about infants in videogames something something.

hi all
it's been a couple years since i played the Mother games through, which means i'm quite overdue (i used to beat them yearly). i know dozens of people here have played Earthbound and talked it to death, so instead of making a topic on that (yet...) i'm going to play through & talk about its predecessor, the first Mother aka Earthbound Zero aka just Earthbound (NES). i figure a few people might be interested in the game but not everyone is gonna want to play a kooky old wildly unbalanced Dragon Quest clone (that is also true of Earthbound). so let me do it for you!

This podcast is actually a large scaling sprite.
This episode forum superfriends Renfrew, glitch, and Schwere Viper swap stories about their arcade experiences over the years. Glitch talks about the arcade that's inside of the building where she works, Schwere Viper recalls with frightening accuracy the machines available at his childhood arcade near a laundromat that closed in 1995, and, should you ever find yourself awake in Haneda Airport after a blackout, Renfrew provides easy to understand turn-by-turn directions to Japan's h0ttest UFO catchers.
Bonus: learn about the untimely fate of Renfrew's super-sweet Soul Calibur poster.

"I believe ghosts are like dogs and they just sort of do things arbitrarily."
This episode I interview fellow sb.net forum members and Tales of Games co-founders bort and chef boyardee. We talk about the development of Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden and its impending sequel, The Magical Realms of Tír na nÓg: Escape from Necron 7 – Revenge of Cuchulainn: The Official Game of the Movie – Chapter 2 of the Hoopz Barkley SaGa for like a whole 49 minutes. The Barkley 2 Kickstarter can be found here!
And then, since your appetite for such things is insatiable, Side B of this episode is an in-depth discussion about SaGa creator Akitoshi Kawazu's body of work. For this part... well let's just say that you might wanna buckle up, because . . . Read more

"bleak is dead"
This episode is about that one game you like that no one else seems to like.
Oh. You really don't like it?
FINE.
Listen to hear us gush about games no one cares about anymore: Stonekeep, G-Police, Future Cop LAPD, Ground Zero Texas, Jet Moto 2, Kid Chameleon, SaGa Frontier, Captain Skyhawk, Burt Reynold's Gator for the Nintendo Entertainment System and CRIME KILLER.
Also, bleak dies tragically!
