Failcast Episode 38: Not Gurren Lagann
FAILCAST | 6:06 PM on 05.28.2009 20 comments




Just a disclaimer: this episode of Failcast is not Gurren Lagann. So, if that's going to be an issue, you probably shouldn't download this. If you realize this, however, and are willing to spend time not watching Gurren Lagann, then feel free to partake of Destructoid's unofficial community podcast. This week-late episode features community guest CrocBox, alongside host Yashoki, Hitogoroshi, King3vbo, and an unusually loud Necros, none of whom are Gurren Lagann. Also, this episode experiments by removing the background music from the discussion, so let us know whether you like the format better or worse in the comments!

Outline of Fail:
02:35 - Something different for once!
12:00 - Don't get me staaahhhted
21:00 - Imports and old GH-ish peripherals are the only reason
24:05 - Community feedback
41:10 - HOLY CRAP WHAT
52:30 - PC gaming is dead!
54:30 - Discarded Couch Sandwich reminisces about GBA-GCN connectivity
68:15 - The forums discuss video game canon

Music Credits:
OP: Tenacious D - Master Exploder
smh - Arboreal Ascent
ED: David Wise - Lockjaw's Saga (DKC2)

Also, of note is that we'll be doing a special E3 episode next week, featuring three roundtables staffed by community members. Keep an eye on the cblogs tomorrow (Friday) for information on how you can get involved! Also, email us at Failcast@gmail.com to be a guest on the show or ask us any questions.


This download is not Gurren Lagann, BTW.

So you guys play ChromeHounds? I've seen a copy around and was going to buy it but I didn't know if people still played it.


So yeah I'm fucking buying it now for sure :)

I need to watch Gurren Lagann. I just got off Eureka 7, and I need something that will potentially not make me cry like a baby.

Gurren Lagann will totally make you cry like a baby. At at least two separate instances.

Vesperia is amazing. I cant beat the 3rd form of the final boss. There is some weird sidequest stuff, and the PS3 version is supposed to have like a million more things to get/do.

There are good gundam games. Gundam Vs. Gundam(and the sequel), Gundam Battle Assault 1/2/3, Gundam 00 DS, Gundam 00: Gundam Meisters, and some PS2 Gundam SEED PS2 game(s).


[Insert random Gurren Lagann quote here]
