RetroforceGO! Episode 100

Yatta! We did it! I think. I am both proud and honored to finally present to you our 100th episode. It's more or less a listener questions show, but a little more personal this time around. Also,...
RetroforceGO! records episode 100 tonight: Retroforce

Well kids, looks like we made it. Tonight we record our 100th episode. We thought about what our topic should be, and having already done a few retrospective episodes, we figured another one woul...
RetroforceGO! ep 99: The Wizard DVD Audio commentary

Happy not-quite-Friday, listeners. This week we recorded our audio commentary track for The Wizard. Hopefully you've been able to obtain a copy of the film, otherwise this is going to be the most...
RetroforceGO! records episode 99 tonight: The Wizard

So you know how Podtoid does that thing where we sit around and yap over bad videogame movies, MST3K style? Yeah, we're doing that. Say what you will about podcasts yoinking ideas from one anothe...
RetroforceGO! episode 98: Super Metroid

Happy Friday, listeners! This week's episode is all about Super Metroid, and might also be the first time Chad and Dyson have discussed the topic together without arguing. Not a bad way to bring ...
RetroforceGO! records episode 98 tonight: Super Metroid

Most of you will have played the game that serves as tonight's topic of discussion many times over. You know its weapons, its levels, the ins and outs of how to take down its many formidable enem...
RetroforceGO! episode 97: Final Fantasy VII

Happy Friday, listeners. This week we finally recorded our Final Fantasy VII episode, as this season's final installment of our Retro Limbo series. It's a long show, and it's packed full of talk ...
RetroforceGO! records episode 97 tonight: Final Fantasy VII

When the sins of a corrupt organization begin to harm the Earth, a band of rebels steps in to make right of the unspeakable acts caused by the evil corporation known as Shinra. But what begins as...
RetroforceGO! episode 96: Pinball

With the ladies away at SDCC, Chad, Dyson, Conrad and I got together to record the manliest episode of RetroforceGO ever. If we'd planned it to happen this way, we could have done something super...
RetroforceGO! records episode 96 tonight: Pinball

In somewhat of a departure from the norm, this week's episode is not about videogames. I say "somewhat" because it's not entirely unusual for the show to not be about videogames, even i...
RetroforceGO! not recording this week, we are sorry

We know, we know. And we hate to do this to you again, but ... well, we're pretty much all traveling or away this week. But hey, if you're in the Baltimore area for Otakon this weekend, (and real...
RetroforceGO! episode 95: Listener questions

Happy Friday, listeners. This week's episode was made up entirely of your questions, so if it's lame, it's totally your fault. And if it's awesome, then you should pat yourself on the back for be...
RetroforceGO! records episode 95 tonight: Listener questions

The time has come once again, dearest listeners. The time ... for nonsense. Tonight we record another of our all-listener questions episodes, made up entirely of whatever ridiculous poppycock you...
Retroforce Recap: so what about those dirty games, now?

The RetroforceGo! team has been talking about a new idea that we thought our listeners might possibly enjoy. Rather than discuss a bunch of obscure games every week that some of you may have neve...
RetroforceGO! episode 94: Naughty retro games

Happy Friday, listeners. While our show is never exactly what you'd call "safe for work," this episode is seriously NSFW. Conrad joined us this week, to discuss all the dirty, pervy thi...
RetroforceGO! records ep 94 tonight: Naughty retro games

We're back! And subsequently, so are these boobs. We seem to have Chad's handsomepox under control, so we're going to continue on with what would have been our topic last week: naughty retro game...
RetroforceGO! not recording this week due to banditos

Now that I have your attention, I'd like to inform you that we will not be recording this week. Okay, that's a lie; I probably don't have your attention. The other part is true, though. Our ...
RetroforceGO! episode 93: Final Fantasy IV (and vaginas!)

Happy Friday, listeners. There was a bit of trouble getting the show uploaded this week, but thanks to the vigilance of Geraldo Beedog, all has turned out well. Thank you, sir. This week we were ...
RetroforceGO! records episode 93 tonight: Final Fantasy IV

That's IV, not VI. Dyslexic as I am, I mistakenly read the Roman numeral backward upon referencing our top-secret schedule of show topics to see what this week's subject was, and proceeded to cra...
RetroforceGO! episode 92: E3 09

Happy Friday, listeners. This week we discussed all the things that pleased and displeased us about this year's E3. We also laughed a lot and talked about pancakes, because that's in our job desc...
RetroforceGO! records episode 92 tonight: E3 09

We're back from E3 -- those of us who got to go, anyway -- and the surprising amount of retro-flavored hotness on display this year has left us with quite a bit to talk about. So that's what we'r...
RetroforceGO! Episode 91: Platformers

Happy Friday Saturday, listeners! Allow me first to apologize for the lateness of the show this week. Despite Geraldo Beedog's shocking accusations of scandal, the truth of the matter is that the...
RetroforceGO! records episode 91 tonight: Platformers

As we sat around in the jacuzzi on our yacht the other night, it occurred to us that we've come almost a full hundred episodes without doing a show on platformers. Upon realizing this, Chad nearl...
RetroforceGO! Episode 90: ZOMBIES! (Retro Limbo #4)

Happy Friday, listeners! This week Anthony Burch joined us to discuss zombies, and what sort of instruments we'd like to use to kill him in the even that he bcomes one. Or how he'd like to kill u...
RetroforceGO! records episode 90 tonight: Zombies!

BRAINS. Tonight we record the newest installment of our Retro Limbo series, with a look at zombie games. They ate our neighbors, infected our friends and loved ones, and eventually made their way...
RetroforceGO! Episode 89: Punch-Out!!

Happy Fri ... er, Wednesday, listeners! This week we recorded a bit early, so hopefully our yammering will help accellerate the arrival of your Friday. Or at the very least, make up for the lack ...
RetroforceGO! records episode 89 tonight: Punch-Out!!

Yes, it's early! And given the tone of the past couple of episodes, that might be a good thing. Perhaps recording earlier in the week will stave off our appetite for nonsense. Probably not, thoug...
RetroforceGO! Episode X: The Muppets

Happy Friday, listeners! Since the rest of the cast was away this week, Chad and I decided that, rather than skip the show altogether, we'd just record our own episode about whatever the hell we ...
RetroforceGO! not recording this week ... well, kind of

Good afternoon, dear listeners. It is with a heavy heart that I must inform you of the fact that your regularly scheduled episode of RetroforceGO! will not be recorded this week. Due to circumsta...
RetroforceGO! Episode 88: Peripherals (also chaos)

Happy Friday, listeners! This week was the second in our hardware series, in which we discussed peripherals. And then ... well, you can take a listen for yourself. Everything sort of spiralled in...
RetroforceGO! records episode 88 tonight: Peripherals

It's been a while since we had ourselves a nice hardware episode, so this week we thought we'd talk about peripherals. Not controllers so much (we kinda already did that), but all the other ridic...
Hey Ash, Whatcha Playin: New Gamer Dictionary

I was absolutely sure that this week's HAWP would be a "love it or hate it" sort of an episode, but roughly half the comments so far seem to think that it's just so-so. More proof that ...
RetroforceGO! Episode 87: Earthbound with Aaron Linde

Happy Friday, listeners! This week, Chad and Stella both make their welcome return to the show, and are joined by none other than Aaron Linde of Real Men Play Gradius fame. He used to write for t...
RetroforceGO! records episode 87 tonight: Earthbound

Yes. Oh hell yes. We know many of you have been waiting quite some time for this episode, and we're excited to announce that this week we'll be talking about the Earthbound/Mother series. You may...
RetroforceGO! Episode 86: Commodore 64

Happy Friday, listeners! This week, Conrad jumped into the hot tub with us to talk about the Commodore 64. Highlights include: I named the file with the wrong episode number!Floppy discs!Keyboard...
RetroforceGO! records episode 86 tonight: Commodore 64

Finally, right? We know many of you have been waiting for a Commodore 64 episode, so tonight's your night. I could pretend I know what I'm talking about and go on about floppy discs and keyboards...
RetroforceGO! not recording this week: sadness, pandas, etc

Kids, come over here for a minute and have a seat. No, not on the radiator, you'll ruin your ass. Over here. Listen. There comes a time when mommies and daddies all have plans during the same wee...
RetroforceGO! Episode 85: Listener questions

Happy Friday, listeners! This week was another of our listener questions episodes, which is our favorite thing to do. Mostly because it's easy. In keeping with that spirit of laziness, I'm not go...
RetroforceGO! records episode 85 tonight: Listener questions

It's that time again. The day has come when you, the listener, decide what this week's show is about. Not because we relinquish control, but because we agree to spend the entire episode discussin...
RetroforceGO! Episode 84: Puzzle games

Happy Friday, listeners! This week we sat in a circle and recorded our Puzzle Game addicts’ support group session. I don’t think anyone came out of it any less hooked on block droppin...
RetroforceGO! records episode 84 tonight: Puzzle games

Back in 1985, a guy by the name of Alexey Pajitnov designed a game called Tetris. In years following, it's spawned countless clones, variations and altogether new games, perhaps most notably the ...
RetroforceGO! Episode 83: Metal Slug

Happy Friday, listeners! This week we talked about Metal Slug, which you should go play right now. Er ... well, right after you listen to this: The RetroforceGIVE! charity auction is live! Dale ...
RetroforceGO! records episode 83 tonight: Metal Slug

We touched on it briefly during the course of our Neo Geo episode, but come on. It's Metal Slug. You can't touch on it briefly. So we're doing a whole episode about it. Partly because it's one of...
RetroforceGO! not recording this week, don't tell Chad on us

Okay, so here's the thing, see. Chad, Dyson and Colette are partying it up in Miami for the Dtoid 3-year anniversary, and have left Stella and me behind because they don't love us. That would be ...
RetroforceGO! Episode 82: The NES

Happy Friday, listeners! And happy birthday to Phist, who probably doesn't listen to the show anymore, but I'll say it anyway. This week's show is about the Nintendo Entertainment System, and it'...
RetroforceGO! records episode 82 tonight: The NES (yes, really)

"LOL HAY but isn't every week the NES episode, har har?" You shut up and go back to your seat before I start throwing erasers, smart guy. Yes, this week's show is about the Nintendo Ent...
RetroforceGO! Episode 81: The Ocarina of Time

Happy Friday, listeners! This week, we hummed a lot and made some funny noises that may or may not have to do with The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time. We also talked about some things, such...
RetroforceGO! records episode 81 tonight: Retro Limbo #3: The Ocarina of Time

You may have noticed that we missed our usual slot for a Retro Limbo episode last week in order to celebrate the pristine glory of the Street Fighter franchise. Let's pretend this week's show num...
RetroforceGO! Episode 80: Hell yeah Street Fighter

Happy Friday, Listeners! If you've had enough of Justin Timberlake the SFIV theme, we've got something else for you to listen to for a while. This week's show celebrates the greatness of Street F...
RetroforceGO! Episode 80: Hell yeah Street Fighter

Happy Friday, Listeners! If you've had enough of Justin Timberlake the SFIV theme, we've got something else for you to listen to for a while. This week's show celebrates the greatness of Street F...
RetroforceGO! records episode 80 tonight: Motherf*cking Street Fighter

Hey kids! Did you get Street Fighter IV yet? Did ya, huh? Isn't it magnificent? Isn't it the greatest thing to happen to mankind in eight years? The answer is yes, and we will hear no arguments o...
RetroforceGO! Episode 79: Unrequited love in retro games

Happy Friday, listeners! Tomorrow is Valentine's day, so we thought we'd talk a little about unrequited love in retro games. Heaven knows we all understand what it feels like. Highlights: Valent...
RetroforceGO! records episode 79 tonight: Unrequited love in retro games

Happy Valentine's Day, listeners. We don't know each other very well, but um ... I wanted to ask you something. Will you be my friend? Just pretending is fine, too. We wouldn't have to see each o...
RetroforceGO! Episode 78: Classic gaming magazines

Happy Frid ... er, Wednesday, listeners! We recorded a little early this week because I'm going to be at New York Comic Con this weekend. If you're there too, come by and say hello. If you're not...
RetroforceGO! records episode 78 tonight: Classic gaming magazines

Before there was an internet, there was print journalism. There still is, but if advertisers and moneyholders have their way, that might not be true for much longer. If you grew up when we did, t...
RetroforceGO! Episode 77: We heart Capcom

Happy Friday, listeners! This week, we talked about one of our favorite things in the whole world: Capcom. Capsule Computers (yup, that's what it's short for) made many of our favorite games ever...
RetroforceGO! records episode 77 tonight: We heart Capcom

We heart Capcom. A lot. Chances are you do, too. Tonight we'll be discussing just how awesome Capcom was, and still is. They're responsible for many of our favorite games, and some of those were ...

RetroforceGO! Episode 76: Ninja Gaiden with Conrad Zimmerman

Happy Friday, listeners! This week, we discussed ninjas. And Ninja Gaiden.  And evil birds who knock you back much further than a bird should have the power to do, and cause you to stick to ...
RetroforceGO! records episode 76 tonight: Ninja Gaiden with Conrad Zimmerman

It's about time we got to Ninja Gaiden, and it's also about time we got the author of RetRose Tinted on the show, Conrad Zimmerman. Tonight, Mr. Zimmerman and his hat join us to discuss the Hayab...
