Happy Friday, listeners! This week we punched transvestites in the face and ate pizzas that magically fell from broken mailboxes. If you've ever played a beat 'em up, you know what I'm talking about. Highlights include:
- Awesome chiptune intro by Torzelan!
- Dodge these super balls
- PSN coverage? On my RFGO?!?
- I'll have what she's having
- The final Rev Rant, and the dawn of a new segment
- You should check out Dad 'n Me
- Coming soon: Chocobo refrigerators
- 2P Mode C
- I don't actually have a purse.
- Punching people is fun!
- Oil drums: Now with turkey dinner
This episode also marks the end of the Rev Rant as we know it. Why? Because it's Anthony's segment and he can do what he wants with it. We're pretty sure you'll like his new thing, though. You can check out the first installment of it, as well as the rest of the show
right here. Have a great week, and don't forget to punch someone!

The end of an era more like.
This episode rocked BTW, and totally inspired me to gather my friends for some Beat 'Em Up Friday Fun!
I need your contact info and I'll send you one!!!
He's coming back. Hopefully soon ... :)
I don't really think Brawlers are dead, they are just evolving into something that no longer resembles Captain Commando.
PM sent! :3 sankyuu!
Great beat em ups episode, I mean really, what IS up with those tasty turkey dinners in oil drums?
How did I not mention Odin Sphere on the Beat Em Up episode!!??? Damn it. I'll say this again for no reason whatsoever: Anyone who complains about the block button being mapped to the attack button does not understand the game: There is absolutely no reason to try to block in that game. Odin Sphere is about damage avoidance and resource management...
Completely irrelevant, I know.
I get the feeling it won't be emulatable in Rom form. You'll have to find some other way to back up your copy. *cough*
Concrete Man: still a dick.
A room mate thought i was watching porn
BEST WEEK EVER!!!
Also, Dad 'n Me ish pwn.
Oh, and to the Reverend's gamer dictionary thing:
Post-Mortem precognition(if specifically referring to having to repeat a level due to deaths)
Also, I always called the God of War/Dynasty Warriors games "button mashers" but comparing those games with Battletoads, they're actually fall into a beat'em up category, since they all offer the same gameplay variations.
Also, Colette? A warning next time for when you play orgasms on the podcast? I love me sum orgasms, but I don't listen to podcasts without headphones, and I'm spending the weekend at my parent's for their anniversary.
Imagine me in my room, with he door closed, with orgasms playing...
...actually, it's pretty funny now that I think of it. Nevermind :D
You mean it's like Zelda without the fun.
Okami started off good and just instantly goes downhill after that. Once you realize that there are no dungeon puzzles to solve, it's just the "inbetween" stuff in Zelda with constant, boring, real-time battle sequences. No matter what art style you have in the game, it's not going to hide the fact that it's boring and monotonous. And oh god don't even THINK about trying to play the Wii version... >_>
You and I must complete opposites. Okami is my second favorite game of all time. No opinion on the Wii version, though, haven't played it.
game precognition or replay syndrome
menuflex
-or-
menutuition/menutuitive
If it is the latter, I propose: "Re-perfecting"
Everyone should play that, no excuses. Its the epitome of the genre.
