BATTLEFIELD 3! Minecraft! Mass Effect 3 multiplayer! And something senior citizens eating pot brownies. Sam, Sharkey, Tina and special guest from DICE, Tim Kjell joins.

Jose Otero slips into the hosting chair this week and is joined by Bob Mackey, Matt Leone, and Mike Nelson. Get ready for 90 minutes of games and news discussions ranging from Forza 4 to Ghost Trick, and bid farewell to a 1UP veteran.

PRAISE THE SUN! Dark Souls has been consuming most of our lives, but we do manage to eventually break away from talking about it to discuss other recent happenings, including Square Enix's surprise retooling of Final Fantasy XIV, Sega's XBLA remake of Guardian Heroes, and Capcom's limited edition Monster Hunter 3DS. Plus: hands-on impressions of Robot Invader's Wind-Up Knight, ears-on impressions of the 25th anniversary Zelda Symphony orchestra concert, listener feedback, and more!

The PS2 is somehow on the brink of its 11th birthday, which makes us all feel very old. Join Retronauts host Bob Mackey and guests Scott Sharkey and Ray Barnholt as they discuss Sony's past console with listeners and age audibly.

Jeremy Parish, Thierry Nguyen, Jose Otero, and Bob Mackey discuss junket food, Evangelion, and prison survival in this riveting episode. Also, there's some stuff about Dark Souls and PS Vita or whatever.

Craft Week! We bring up Minecraft, Starcraft and uh, that's about it. Actually, we break into more discussion over how awesomely bad the Battlefield 3 beta is, and the amount of interest we have in more channels for Xbox Live. Then we jump to a quick comic discussion, bring up a really out-of-place story for fun, and finish off with your questions!

Still craving more b-list Japanese RPG chatter after last week? You're in luck; Retronauts host Bob Mackey along with guests Kat Bailey and Christian Nutt pick up this subject once again for a roundtable discussion of Xenosaga, Lufia, Wild Arms, Shadow Hearts and more.

Please forgive us for how we kick-off this episode (it was only appropriate for the episode number; ha!). This week, Tina, Sam, Sharkey and Miggels discuss nudity on Dead Island, Diablo 3 beta, Minecraft, skanky Catwoman and Starfire, and a few questions from the community.

Jose Otero returns from Las Vegas to bring Matt Leone and Thierry Nguyen the lowdown on EA's Syndicate reboot, while a still-jetlagged Jeremy Parish struggles to stay awake long enough to discuss his 8-hour session with the latest Legend of Zelda.

With Mark out of town on business and Tokyo Game Show now behind us, life at 8-4 Towers has been pretty quiet lately. But that's no excuse not to record a podcast! ...OK, actually, it kind of is, but we went ahead and recorded one anyway! Tune in to hear us talk about Dark Souls, Zelda: Four Swords 25th Anniversary Edition, the Diablo III beta, porntips from Thailand (not what you think!), "Lucky Lassi" Monster Hunter drinks from Family Mart (...probably what you think), and plenty more.

On this week's episode of Retronauts, host Bob Mackey and guests Meghan Sullivan (of IGN) and a slightly less-audible Janine Dong field calls from listeners about their favorite and least favorite B-list Japanese RPGs. The winners are praised, and the losers are thrown down into Pony Canyon. Who will survive?

Tokyo Game Show! It happened. It made our host very sleepy from jet lag. And by golly, we talked about it, from Monster Hunter to Mommy Tummy.

"Hay you guys!" We're back! And with Sharkey! Sweet! Ok, so this week we chatted about Modern Warfare 3, Netflix's adopted pot head, a porn star gaming site, and the worst jobs in the Star Wars Universe. That poor Porkins. Oh, and we also discuss the potential of a hide-n-seek game in Minecraft.

Just what the heck is a Kunio-kun? In our newest installment, Retronauts host Bob Mackey and guests Ray Barnholt, Marty Sliva, and Kurt Kulata seek to untangle this mess of a franchise and its many renamed English-language installments. River City Ransom fans, take note.

To those that said this day would never come. What are they to say now? Since team 1UP Japan couldn't record a Games, Dammit! from the Tokyo city streets, Jose Otero, Bob Mackey, Mike Nelson, and Marty Sliva rush to the scene to discuss a bunch of stories from TGS 2011. Topic include: Resident Evil 6 (and a bit of RE4 HD talk), Frankenstick and the list of games that support it, Steel Battallion: Heavy Armor and how it won't let you slap women, Halo CE Anniversary Kinect support, the top 10 trailers to come out of TGS, Vita Battery life, Project Draco, and your reactions and comments.
