Season 7 is here and so too is our new audio gift. A new theme tune… hold on we don’t have one? Well I guess you can have some old jaunty brass instead.
In this episode there’s tragedy, news and reviews! Nintendo Direct, Microsoft’s PC game, Mario, Hand of Fate, Picross, Cities, and not Harvest Moon.
What else did we forget? Oh bugger there’s that Life Is Strange coverage we don’t talk about.
How many bros does it take to liberate the world? Quite a few if they are all composed of 80’s action heroes. That’s the key message of Broforce. Zac and Rob brave the jungles of terror.
If one person doesn’t really know what they are talking about and another person doesn’t have a clue about their own words, do they combine into fact or is this how culture begins? This episode attempts to answer this question with spectacular results.
This week there’s plenty of new Pokémon, Rob finishes Metal Gear, Zac avoids DLC, Dan breaks his stuff and vague news is back. Trust cautiously.
Sonic and friends continue their pointlessly on foot trek across the planet in pursuit of Eggman. This time we have canyons, rails, vertical platforming and team deathmatch… all the best stuff in a Sonic game (sarcasm). Join Zac and Rob being relieved of their will.
It should go without saying, but as this is a puzzle game watching this video will likely spoil some of the “I’m a genius” feeling this game appears to give. For the rest of you, watch Rob struggle with lines and grids as Zac attempts to introduce The Witness.
Sonic Heroes seems to have been largely forgotten when bad Sonic games are talked about. Why is that? Zac and Rob aim to break the silence with a complete playthrough… oh joy.
What does it mean if you get “Enter Sandman” stuck in your head for a day and you haven’t even heard the song in, like, forever? Does it cement it as a badass song? Is it destined to get on my nerves? Am I doomed to cause people to sleep forever? The answer may be found in your reaction to arcane recordings of the SaladCast. I hear there may be talk about the games we can’t quite finish yet, VR pricing, vague news, and not dying in the snow and a hidden message if you listen in reverse.
Time for another fumble through the random stuff we end up with on Steam. In Bridge Constructor Zac and Rob build some bridges. Were you expecting something else? Maybe a diplomatic drama?
Oh boy oh boy oh boy! It’s time for the end of year special show: GOTY 2015! We must scrutinize the heck out of 2015 for the good of mankind, for it is written: “Those who podcast, must arbitrarily award.” There’s a lot of difficult decisions and few easy answers in one of the busiest gaming years in memory an you can find out exactly how the team arrive at their conclusions (a blog with the results will go up later).
Fair warning: we may talk about story spoilers and mention the Weak Ass Californian Gap.
All of the characters have completed their own journeys but one thing is still unresolved. Time to sort it out with a bright yellow bullet. Zac and Rob close the book on Sonic Adventure.
Squall and his new squad mates go out on their first real mission to prove they can grow from the SeeD they will become… that works. Join Zac and Rob on the worst military operation ever.
Also the MIDI music hell has been replaced with the original Playstation soundtrack thanks to the “Roses and Wine” mod. Excellent.
Who likes long podcasts? We like long podcasts! So we made a long podcast! Exclamation marks!!!
Rob gets sour over another Rare Replay game but Dan returns from Morocco to lift him up with MGSV. Zac, meanwhile, exposes us all to his lucky glow (it’s radiation) by starting Fallout 4 again.
PS. We kinda totally missed that most of PSX had happened the day before recording. It wasn’t that great though.
Braid was quite an inspiration to the puzzle platforming genre. So here’s Braid…kinda. It’s really The Bridge. Braid with gravity. Zac and Rob let their minds be turned upside down.
The Wii U really wants you to know about Nintendo Direct. It’s really important to it that you watch it in action and give it your warm encouragement. In fact it won’t shut up about it. Beeping and dinging and jingling in the corner of the room. Frustratingly needy thing. You know sometings it makes you feel like you could just…. oh shh shh, it’s coming over.
Hey Wii U how’s it going? What you got there? A suspiciously heavy looking lead pipe with Mario Tennis written on it? Better cut to the SaladCast before I listen to everything you could possibly say you wonderful console you.
Prison Architect has made it out of Early Access so Zac had to show Rob what it’s all about. Inmates, Plans, Budgets! Do Introversion combine these into something charming or hard labour?
Aaaaaand in the blue corner; The current console champion of the world, weighing in at over 25 million units sold despite only a few great games and looking to fight dirty; Sony Playstation!
This would be the honest introduction in the current generation fight and it’s Sony’s time to come out swinging as they dominate Paris Games Week. French it up!
Oh and there was a small release on XBONE called Halo 5. You might have heard of it.
