I hope you like your content haphazard. Recording myself playing games when I can with no thought to quality, long silences, or keeping a consistent record length. Repetitive thoughts about stuff, terrible voices, and yawning when I record after everyone is asleep.

Episodes

Legend of Dragoon - a bit near the end 15.05.2024

We're finally getting to the end of a game I stopped doing recordings for because I was losing steam. Listen as I start proper enthusiastic and steadily lose steam.

Last Resort 14.05.2024

Another Shmup, but I liked this one and was less poop at it.

Being the kind of ninja that does no sneaking in Sengoku 3 13.05.2024

Of all of the beat em ups I have poorly described on this feed this is certainly one of them. I cannot lie this left me incredibly whelmed. Actually while I'm at it wasn't Kurenai an X Japan song? That's a really good song you should probably go listen to that instead, it's got that really intense Hide guitar work on it which is the main reason to listen to X Japan. Honestly I kind...

Failing to save the universe from something or other in Pulstar 12.05.2024

So I'm just really bad at this game. I dunno, sometimes I'm pretty good at shmups but I just absolutely sucked at this particular number. The presentation is great, I like what I heard of the music and saw of the graphics, but I only got to experience them for little snippets at a time.

Real Bout Fatal Fury 2 - The Newcomers 11.05.2024

The Fatal Fury I wanted to play wasn't working with the capture so I played one I hadn't played before. It's incredibly aggressive to the point I'm not sure if I accidentally set it up wrong.

Romancing Saga Report the Second 10.05.2024

Apparently this is just my lunch break now. We beat up the hooded dorks, get a new quest even though I'm not sure I've finished the old quests, and teach the wolf to magic. Also I make two sandwiches.

Romancing Saga report the first 09.05.2024

I've started playing Romancing Saga. Tangentially this is Bill's fault.

Dr Robotnik's Ring Racers - that sonic kart racer that's dead good 01.05.2024

I muddle through the tutorial and a few races of this very good game. I'm utter dogshit but I want to play... perhaps a bit less in the middle of the night.

BlazBlue Chronophantasma - Kagura Arcade 30.04.2024

It was already on so of course I had to play some BlazBlue, it's like the best fighting game that isn't Darkstalkers... I mean it's basically Darkstalkers right? Anyway I've never played as Kagura so I'm a complete mess until the last few fights where I'm only a bit of a mess. It's fiiiine.

Let's play legal admin, revisiting Wrestlemania, also ukulele 29.04.2024

... I don't have a water cooler to talk around so you have to listen to this instead as my own parasocial relationship! Validate my opinions on playfighting dammit!

Struggling to maintain an interesting podcast in art of fighting 3 26.04.2024

More from the night of surprise liesure time. I did me an art of fighting, which has utterly beautiful animation and a slow but pleasant game feel. Good time.

3 Count Bout (SNK Arcade Wrestling Game) 25.04.2024

So apparently I'm just really bad at this game, but look at that presentation! The Red Dragon character is just Muta, it's brilliant if you like the period in Japanese or WCW wrestling. Probably turn down the difficulty next time though...

Having a fun time in Battle Circuit 24.04.2024

So I was considering playing something like Oblivion since I had some time to myself, but then I was just feeling a bit tired in general so I did what I always do and played an arcade game instead. Battle Circuit is quite new to me but I enjoy any fighting game with fun special moves, I stuck with the same character throughout because I didn't want to lose upgrades... because this game has rea...

Nattering about Warsong, rebuying fallout, and amusing cartoon cats 22.04.2024

I have to multitask so I'm going to natter while spending far too long on a basic database amendment instead of taking a proper break and doing an AOLP.

(silly voices ^_^) Trying out arcade mode in Skull Girls 2nd Encore 21.04.2024

I can't remember the names of two of the characters I picked, but I had a fun time not knowing what the hell I was doing. Just really excellent game feel on this one.

Darkstalkers: Vampire Savior - Jon Talbain Arcade 19.04.2024

Bit worried I'm not on my game for this one, I mean I enjoy the shit out of the game but I don't think I'm that exciting in general when I play fighting games instead of RPGs. Anyway I play arcade as Jon Talbain and then a bit as Bishamon because I'm waiting until the next Knightmare record to be actually entertaining.

Bloody Roar Extreme Arcade Mode - Marvel with technical issues 18.04.2024

Also on youtube: https://youtu.be/RU0GzTe2VjM So in part my totally legitimate gamecube hardware appears to be struggling with the game, but I'm also simultaneously covered in baby and have no skill with this particular bloody roar.also I think next time I'll go with a dualshock 2....Anyway I'm trying out Bloody Roar Extreme because it's the one all the cool kids play, and I'm totally one of those...

Poorly describing the virtues of Psychic Force 2 while doing arcade as Emilio 16.04.2024

So I'm playing psychic Force 2 again. I'm sure I've already done the arcade mode on the feed and I'm sure I was just as bad at explaining what was the good things about it at the time. Um, I really am not very good at writing these with the speech to text on my phone, but you know what. I don't really want to type at the moment so you're just going to have to read this if you do indeed read this,...

Bloody Roar 2 and lunch - Shina's Story mode featuring pie 15.04.2024

Another lunch break game session. I have Bloody Roar on the brain and the second one is my favourite. So you can listen to me lose a pretty good survival mode streak, and then do Shina's story mode. I also break off periodically to eat delicious Curried Cauliflower Cheese Pie (the real CCCP). It's also really good.

Madolche-ing it up in between admin tasks 13.04.2024

Oh right I meant to be doing the thing aren't I? Yeah I'm doing the thing. What's it called speech to text that thing you know what I mean. Um these you can tell that I'm doing it like that. Cuz this description is absolutely all over the place, isn't it? So yeah, I was playing Yu-Gi-Oh in between doing admin tasks for my real life job and I'm mattering through those tasks in order to keep me on t...

Jin Arcade mode - BlazBlue Chronophantasma Extend 13.04.2024

Lunchtime fighting games... except also during the easter holidays so Frozen is on in the background and sometimes my eldest tries to persuade me to give her more chocolate...I'm not an incredibly responsible parent but I don't think I'm the VERY worst. also on youtube: https://youtu.be/q_Gx3ENoPXM

Probably TRASH AUDIO of Save Me Mr Tako 11.04.2024

The baby derails my play through of this charming little platformer.

Mario Kart 7 10.04.2024

Right? I'm going to try this one with the voice keyboard thing that's on my phone. Doesn't know how to deal with a woo woo anyway. So yeah, I use another one of my brakes to play some Mario Kart 7 although obviously single player because you can't play it multiplayer anymore. For official channels I'm going to see if there are unofficial ones which will work because you know what if Nintendo are g...

Metal Slug X - also wrestling talk 09.04.2024

So I play Metal Slug X for a bit (about a third of the game to be fair) and then natter about Wrestlemania while working. To summarise, Metal Slug X is the best one, Wrestlemania XL was very good and I'm genuinely optimistic about the WWE right now.

Lunch Break X Castlevania Legends 05.04.2024

Join me if you will as I speak absolute bollocks under the guise of an Audio Only Let's Play of Castlevania Legends on Gameboy (not one of the good ones) I had egg lump sandwiches, and enjoyed a Belmont who could climb ropes but not fall next to a rope. Really lovely art, kind of awful sprites, and everything that isn't fun about Castlevania. Despite being a series I quite like but rarely finish.
