Favorite Weapons in Video Games pt 1

2022-06-24

A lot going on this week! We do an Anime Check-in, where Ron discusses his first gentle steps into the world of Neon Genesis Evangelion, Joey talks about his continued love for Sailor Moon (despite the annoyingly limited monster vocabulary in season 2), and Paul shares some thoughts on recent Love, Death & Robots episodes. We also come up with a plan to update our fantasy video game draft in the near future, so stay tuned for that. In terms of what we’ve been playing lately, we got a little Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, a smattering of Mario Party Superstars, a dash of It Takes Two and The Quarry, and Paul celebrates his first video game figure purchase (of the Geralt Ronin figure from Dark Horse Direct, link in timestamps below). Our feature is (some of) our favorite weapons in video games! We run out of time to cover all of them, so look forward to a future episode with more!

We’re on Twitter: @Losperman (Joey) and @bigbadron (Ron)

00:38:49: Joey’s still in search of Diana, his love, in Animal Crossing New Horizons and has just scratched the surface of The Quarry

00:40:45: Fantasy Video Game Draft check-in! We come up with a plan for how to draft new prospects and make the scoring more fair, but we’ll draft the fresh-faced new recruits on a future episode
