Seriously, why do they capitalize the word Super Bowl? I mean, if it's going to be a psuedo national holiday, then I at least want the following Monday off from work. And by the following Monday, I mean right now: today. Oh well, I guess I won't get to lay around all day and be lazy (much unlike my two roommates who both called in sick today - bastards), but at least I get they joy of sharing with you the brand new RFGO!, right?
Highlights!
- Intro courtesy of Torzelan
- Puppy Bowl is teh cuteness
- Chess: Checkmate for suckage
- But there was Rez, BEST WEEK EVAR!! :)
- Learn how to get un-friended by Topher
- Yes, Chad's evil voice surfaces
Woo-hoo! That was quite a few awesome highlights. I know they'll only make sense once you listen to the show, so you should go ahead and do that right here. And, by the way, we really weren't kidding about the Beats of Rage mod that we want for RFGO! So if you or anyone you know can mod the Beats of Rage game with all the cast members of the show -- and make it awesome -- that person will win each and every game that Reverend Anthony has ever covered in his "Games Time Forgot" articles. That's well over fifty different games, folks. Get cracking!
(Last but not least, we forgot to mention it in the show, but Lord Sartorious needs to get a hold of us on the retro phone. It seems that he won a contest!)

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
And Puppy bowl wouldn't be shit without the kitty halftime show.
Second... or third, if you count, I don't really pay attention to sports, but I'm considerably annoyed that New York won. New York teams should never win anything, unless they're the Yankees. That said, I played Ingenious and Bible Scattegories during the Super Bowl. Board gameage FTW! (And seriously, the Bible version of Scattergories is sheer amazingness. It's been a while since I've been so entertained by a board game type thing.)
The show is almost two hours in length. Sorry, I'll try to bring back the days of the 4 minute RFGO! in the future.
Also, Collette and Chad win my heart for Chrono Trigger and A Link to the Past. If DToid had a prom, I'd vote for you guys.
Also, I really like the idea of a user question only episode. Maybe you could do this maybe, like, every ten episodes or so?
And Dyson, don't you dare go back to the days of the four-minute RFGO! If I were your supreme overlord, they would be two hours MINIMUM. That's how much I love you.
It's not so much a laugh as it is me screaming at Anthony and talking about wanting to rub my face in some breasts. I blame all the beers in my system.
Don't anger the Irish. RUN! :)
You said "the word Super Bowl." But I'm just busting your chops because I'm a dick and I'm envious of your thrift store. Love you.
P.S.
According to Wikipedia Reudx is Latin adjective meaning brought back. It is used now to denote a redone version of a film i.e. Apocalypse Now Redux, one of my favorite films.
Flotsam means goods floating in the water after a ship wreck.
Lucario is indeed a Pokemon but he is the only fictional word present on my list apart from Horcrux and Corneria.
Great show!
The "O'Dell Lake" game was actually called "O'Dell Down Under" and was installed on every mac in every computer ever and it was AWESOME.
I love RFGO.
Now someone is going to bang something out in a weekend that'll be infinitely more awesome than anything I could throw together. :(
...
Meh, I'll still give it a go. I suppose at least I could use this as some motivation to get on it as opposed to just conceptualizing it. :)

We finally get to hear Chad's evil laugh though? Nice! ^_^
CHAD!
@Chad
Yeah, that was ok =)
Oh and I bet dolphins probably have the best flavor in the world, but after you eat it your taste buds implode from all the deliciousness.
Oh and no mention of Mechwarrior 2 for fav pc game? Laaaame
Hearing you guys talk about PAX got me totally amped. This'll be my first year going and August can't get here soon enough! XD
According to the almighty Wikipedia, the game was never released in America as Enix no longer had an Amercan subsidary.
Also, great show!
The ending ranks up there as one of my all time favourites, and is a lot more emotional than FF7 could ever hope to be. I want to say why, but you need to see it for yourselves.
Also Topher I would love to buy you a ticket but I'm also starving because I'm a student, and let's be honest Canada is not exciting!
Awesome show guys!
Colette, Topher and I have shared enough face bites at last year's PAX to last me a lifetime, or at least until this year's PAX. So no, no need for sex. A handjob, however...
Congratulations! on another great show. Reader Question-O-Rama needs to become a staple. Long episode may be long, but AMAAAZING episode is AMAAAZING!
I can't WAIT for the Phantasy Star one. That will be epic.
Thanks for the couple of cake suggestions too!
I shook that Pikachu e-pet =)
I found evil Chad to be kind of underwhelming, i guess kind of how I found Bioshock underwhelming. Too much hype
It's not the games I'm complaining about Rev, it's the consoles them selves, too many SKUs (PS3/360), breakage(360), and severe under powerage(Wii)
Dyson... you want play co-op Contra 4 with me?
I'm pretty good
Too bad that Hey you, Pikachu didn't make it to Europe. I always wanted to play this game in a language I understand. Okay, I played the japanese version several times before and it worked fine. But it isn't as fun if you always have to ask your friend "what's *insert word here* in Japanese?".
What this means is that I not only met a living member of Monty Python, but I also got to meet Douglas Adams. What a great day that was.
Turned out he was giving me:
- NES Zapper (the GREY one)
- Two amazing condition first-party SNES controllers
- A Game Boy, Game Boy case, GB magnifier + light, GB speaker system, GB link cable
- Some random cables
I don't even have an NES. But I have a totally awesome gun toy, now.
