    Still Loading Mini #62: The Super Mario Bros. Super Show E15

    You know.... Dexter and I have been doing these cartoon rewatch series for a few years now and the episode we discuss in this podcast is probably one of the MOST UNHINGED episodes of a cartoon we have ever seen in these series. This week we discuss episode 15 of the Super Mario Bros. Super Show. Toad goes on numerous rampages, a werekoopa gets a wine bottle thrown into their throat and chokes on it, Mario gets waterboarded and that is just the tip of the pasta plate. Believe me when I tell you this episode GOES places. Follow Dexter on social media!

    Still Loading #416: Metal Arms, StarCraft Ghost and Game Development w/ Scott Goffman

    Metal Arms: Glitch in the System is an under loved game but it is also a game that was very impactful to me as a kid. I did an episode on Metal Arms close to a decade ago and while I do want to revisit the game for the show I'm not quite there yet. So I figured the next best thing is to get one of the developers who worked on the game on the podcast to talk about it! I'm joined by Scott Goffman on this episode. Scott was one of the founders of Swingin' Ape Studios, the developer of Metal Arms, and I had SO much fun getting to pick is brain about his time working on the game as well as his time in the games industry in general. We talk about how he got his foot in the door of the games industry, what it was like working on Hydro Thunder, the origins of Metal Arms and Swingin' Ape Studios and so much more. I'm hoping to get more developers from Swingin' Ape Studios on the show to talk about their work on the game and in the games industry so keep an eye out for future interviews!

    Still Loading #415: Horizon Forbidden West w/ Doug Lief

    Wrapping up backlog month this year is a doozy of a game that took me over 80 hours to beat it along with it's DLC. I am joined by my Still Muppeting (join the patreon to listen) co-host with the mo-host, Doug Lief, to talk about Horizon Forbidden West. This game is a text book example of the "bigger must be better" philosophy in sequels, and largely... it works! Doug and I had a lot of fun playing through and talking about this game. It was a game that was hard for me to put down. Even now writing this nearly 7 months after beating it I just wanna go back and play it again. We talk about what changes were made to the Horizon formula, the expansion of the world/lore and of course it's amazing story.

    Still Loading #414: Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest w/ Dongled

    Sequels are hard man. It's super challenging to take what made the first game in a series good, update it, make it fresh and more challenging while also not alienating new players coming to the series for the first time. I'm not sure if today's game entirely succeeds at this but it puts in one of the better efforts for a sequel. This week I am joined by Mike aka Dongled from the YouTube channel of the same name to talk about Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest! With a new character coming to the table and a familiar one leaving, the titular character no less, this game was surprisingly risky for the developer of the game, Rare, to make. Like I said above, finding that balance of new and exciting but warm and familiar, is tough to do; but Rare somehow managed to pull it off. Mike and I talk about the new things they added to the game, new themes/world settings, the music and so much more.

    Still Loading #413: Max Payne w/ Phil Morgan

    This week on the show we drink some rusty nails and go into the underbelly of NYC. All for revenge. An also for bullet time of course. This on the show we are talking about Max Payne! Helping me break down Max's slow descent into madness is returning guest Phil Morgan from the Deleted Saves podcast! Between super bad film noir monologues (mostly from me) and some intelligent discussion of the game (mostly from Phil), we break down everything this game has to offer.

    Still Loading #412: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 w/Zach from Classic Gaming Brothers & Jordan Kuhns

    Two years ago I finally crossed the original Sonic the Hedgehog game off my backlog. I am following up that episode by covering the sequel for backlog month this year! I am joined by returning guests, Zach from the Classic Gaming Brothers Podcast and my good friend Jordan Kuhns to break down the speedy hedgehog's sequel, Sonic the Hedgehog 2. As always I ask the age old question, which name for the antagonist is better... Dr Egghead or Dr Robotnik? But we also talk about the game and what not.

    Still Loading #411: ActRaiser w/ Andre from Fine Time

    There are monumentally important games that come out and don't get the recognition they deserve. They are heralded by the people who have played it as one of the best and many game developers cite it as an inspiration. Andre from Fine Time joins me on this one to dive into the Quintet SNES launch title ActRaiser. ActRaiser is one of the games I described above. A game that doesn't get as much recognition even though it deserves it and is cited by game devs as a inspiration and building block for games to come. Dre and I break all this down. We discuss what makes this game unique, strategies for ruling our people, cherub cheeks and a whole lotta biblical references.

    Still Loading #410: Control w/ Try from My Life in Gaming and Matt Storm

    Only in the last few years have I finally delved into the Remedy-verse of video games. Two years ago I played Alan Wake for the first time and this year my Patrons chose Max Payne as one of my backlog month games (an episode on which you will hear in a month or so!). I also played Control this year. This game is just straight vibes man. It builds such a fully realized world and it was a joy to both explore it and discuss it in this episode. I am joined by Matt Storm from the "Fun" & Games Podcast and Try from My Life in Gaming to break down the game that basically started the Remedy-verse as we know it today! We discuss the skill trees, the exploration, the story. We cover it all and you should REALLY play this game before getting to the spoiler section of the episode.

    Still Loading #409: NieR Replicant w/ Andrew Kinsey

    Once in a while a game comes along and enrages you beyond any words you have in your vocabulary but that game simultaneously also provides you with one of the most profound experiences you have ever had playing a video game. NieR Replicant is that game to me. Returning to the show is my good friend Andrew Kinsey from The EXP Point to help me break it all down. We discuss what this game does well, why I loathe it, why its amazing and why I never want to play it again.

    Still Loading #407: Beyond the NES w/ Joe Bourrie

    The NES in North America got 677 games. In Japan there was over 1000 games released. In this episode I chat with returning guest Joe Bourrie to talk about a Kickstarter he has going on to get a book he has worked over 5 years on published, it's called "Beyond the NES". Beyond the NES is a curated look at games that came out on the Famicom only in Japan and have yet to be introduced to North American gamers in any meaningful way. This book is Joe's attempt to remedy that unfamiliarity and I would say does so REALLY well. I tasked Joe with finding comparable Famicom exclusive games to some of our more well known titles on the NES in North America. Love Zelda? There are some cool games we didn't get that you may like. What about Mega Man? There are a bunch of cool games that we didn't get that might scratch that itch. Beyond the NES is a great look into what we missed in North America on the NES and is well worth supporting.

    Still Loading #405: The History of Cheating in Video Games w/ Nate Drake

    There are many areas of game history that have not been given their due diligence in research. And for a long while I never had a second thought about cheat codes or cheating in video games in general other than the cursory Konami Code Easter egg or the news story about some game hacker. That was until I read my guest's recently published book. I'm joined by Nate Drake to talk about his book on the history of cheating in video games called "I Am Not Good". I had a great conversation with Nate about his work on the book, his inspiration for writing it, his personal favorite cheat codes and if big head mode should come back or not... And of course much more. Please note I did receive a review copy of this book.

    Still Loading #401: Mario 101 w/ Drew Mackie

    Some of my favorite episode topics are the ones I couldn't think of. This week on the show I am joined by Drew Mackie from the blog, Thrilling Tales of Old Video Games to talk about his recently released article, Mario 101. In Mario 101, Drew lays out a series of 101 obscure and fun Mario facts over the course of 40,000 words. This is the kind of topic I never would have thought of, which makes it the perfect topic for me to cover on the show. This type of super niche, hyper specific research is my jam and I when I reached out to Drew about coming on the show for a game (something we have yet to plan) we asked if we could talk about this and I jumped at the chance to. This was a really fun conversation about a side of Mario you don't really see. This is Mario 101.
