We answer your questions, read your responses to August's games, and spend some time talking about the sorts of places that show up in games, and what we'd like to see more of, before announcing our slate for the best month of the year, October. Support Watch Out for Fireballs!

Everything To Guppy is a weekly comedy/gaming podcast that releases four 15-minute episodes in a single hour-long chunk every Tuesday for reasons that seemed good at the time. Gary Butterfield (Watch Out For Fireballs) and William Hughes (The A.V. Club) attempt to analyze every single item, boss, character, and concept in the rogue-lite video game The Binding Of Isaac. They manage to pull it off o...

WiiWare is an untapped market for us, and Gary brought in a doozie: a game about eating a lot in a very short amount of time. And you know what? It's not that terrible. It would at least have kept us entertained for a night in our dirtbag early twenties. So listen in and hear us talk about competitive eating, and learn a little more about Gary's horrible childhood.

Having explored the Academy of Raya Lucaria, it's time to set our sights on the other seat of power in Liurnia: Caria Manor. All of this is in service of our quest to find the witch Ranni, a demigod who seems to be pulling a lot of strings. And to get to her, we'll need to deal with a whole lot of fingerspiders.

Kole, Dennis, and Jala talk about Mortuary Assistant, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Under Falling Skies, and much more! The Grind: Kole: Mortuary Assistant. Jala: Sonic Mania. Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Dennis: Under Falling Skies. Vampire Survivors. Rainbow Six: Extraction. The Multiplayer: What are your little gaming habits and rituals? The End Boss: The Con...

Wario is one of Nintendo's secret best weapons. As "the opposite of Mario" he is an aesthetic triumph, indulging in every vice and drawing us in with his shamelessness. And for a while, he was the star of his own series of puzzle platformers on Nintendo portable systems. Wario Land 4 is an odd duck in that sub-series, with a more action-oriented presentation that doesn't leave the puzzles behind....

It's the year 2012 and vacations are outlawed, so instead of just kicking back at home you engage in some car combat to cart unpleasant tourists around. Rogue Trip's premise is messy, and built on a genre that we don't really care for at all. But it might be a good idea to add some non-killing mechanics to car combat, so it's hard to write this off entirely. The characters are garbage though, and...

We're here, the end of the Venture Bros. for now. Hopefully. As long as that WB merger doesn't shake everything up and kill the movie. But we're going to think positive for now, and cover the DVD extras, read your responses to season 7, and offer up our firsts and worsts. Thank you so much for listening! Special thanks to Joshua Jarett for our cover art, Gwen May for our theme song, and Brayton Ca...

Dragonfable is the long-forgotten followup to Adventure Quest, and somehow it still runs, and somehow you can still play it. Cribbing heavily from the hyper self-aware diction of webcomics in the mid-2000s, this is a repetitive, grindy RPG that's perfectly at home on this show.

Uncanny X-Men (1963) #210 X-Factor (1986) #9 Uncanny X-Men (1963) #211 X-Factor (1986) #10 Reminder that you can read along with and ahead of the show by subscribing to Marvel Unlimited (we don't get paid for you doing that, so it's not an ad, it's just a cool service). You can also use Comixology, or buy the trades from your local comic book shop (the preferred method, if we're being honest). Be...

Basch, Balthier, Ashe, Fran, and two associates continue their quest for magic rocks! Will the princess use the rocks or smash the rocks? Find out as we continue our exploration of this world spanning adventure. Though the dungeons take a wet fart at the end, the dialogue and presentation continue to be first in class.

Here we are at the end of the series, what was regrettably the finale before the movie was announced. It's time for the Monarch to ascend to a Level Ten villain status, and the Guild puts on a big show about Saphrax and Altheaus, the original villain and henchman, to commemorate it. It's... incongruous. Meanwhile, Dean shares sweet moments with a comatose Hank, while Hank ventures through a psyche...

Gilligan's Island is a hell named after its devil. The incompetent first mate of the S.S. Minnow bumbles about with an efficiency that cannot be accidental, ensuring that the island's flawed inhabitants will never again see another shore. Gilligan's Island is also a corny 60s television show which, for some reason, got an NES game made of it in 1990. It contains multitudes.

Kole, Dennis, and Jala talk about Into the Breach: Advanced Edition, Late Shift, and Solasta: Crown of the Magister. The Grind: Jala: Contradiction. The Quarry. Late Shift.

The End Boss: Covid is still messing up the ga...

The land of Ivalice is a land in constant turmoil, and with Final Fantasy XII we find ourselves caught in the midst of a larger struggle that is obliterating the borderlands between two massive empires. This is how the stage is set for the twelfth entry in the Final Fantasy series, the first mainline entry of the series to get really weird with it. This episode concerns itself primarily with the g...

The world was clamoring for two things: a remake of Uniracers, and a mascot for Iguana Entertainment. And with Iggy's Reckin' Balls, it got both! This 2.5D racer supposes an abstract world made of racetracks and towers where spherical nonsense monsters vie to win races. And because it was N64 exclusive, you bet there are people who go to bat for it.

A strange blizzard has overtaken New York, and the OSI and the Guild must partner up to stop the culprits: The Peril Partnership. Rusty and Billy head to the skies to stop the weather machine, while 21 and the Monarch head to the leader's compound. Meanwhile, Hank ventures out into the snow to find Sirena, who isn't responding to his texts... but he'll end up wishing he'd left that stone unturned....

Galerians for the PlayStation is a flawed but interesting survival horror game, existing today primarily for people who are passionate about that era of the genre. Galerians: Ash is beloved by none. Picking up right at the end of the original game, Ash follows the continuing adventures of Rion through the world of Basically Akira, trying to stop synthetic humans from destroying the world. But they...

Hey folks, thanks for bearing with us during the delay. We had some illness and some life stuff that just got in the way. But we're back, and hopefully back on schedule from this point forward. In this episode we cover the last five issues of Messiah Complex, wonder why Predator X exists, and speculate on the how mutants will be introduced into the MCU. Chapter 9: X-Men #206 Chapter 10: Uncanny X-...

Weddings are stressful enough without your spouse's terrible family immediately trying to kill you. That's the situation that Grace finds herself in when she marries into the obscenely rich Le Domas family, who made their fortune in publishing board games. Whenever someone marries in, the family has a ritual where they draw a card and play whatever game is on it. Unfortunately for Grace, she winds...
