DLC Recording Days: Sat., 7/28 & Sun., 7/29
Monday, 9 July 2012 13:28What ho!
Hope you're all managing to enjoy your summer--and at the very least, staying cool while the country seems to be burning to a crisp.
We're getting to that part of the year where I'd like to honor some of video gaming's most classic franchises--as you know, many of the franchises we know and love began in the mid-late 1980s, and many of them are hitting some milestone anniversaries. I'd like to record some episodes celebrating these classics. If you want to join in any of the episodes and wax nostalgic, then please, let me know. Here's what I have planned:
Saturday, July 28
Episode 1: Street Fighter. First released in August 1987, this series has given us plenty of play these past 25 years.
Episode 2: Mortal Kombat. Released in arcades in 1992, this series turned the fighting genre into a bloody, gory mess...and loved by millions. 20 years later, the series is still going strong.
Sunday, July 29
Episode 3: Mega Man. Released in December 1987, this Capcom flagship has given us some awesome gameplay, great music, and memorable characters. While a Mega Man title hasn't been released in 2 years, Capcom's sure to keep this series going after it hits its 25th. NOTE: there will be a guest host for this episode.
Episode 4: Kirby. Getting its debut 20 years ago on the Game Boy, this adorable creature has been copying abilities and defeating King Dedede on many a Nintendo console.
So again, if any of you out there want in on any of these episodes, let me know!
