Backloggers Anonymous

Backloggers Anonymous returns for a special Halloween episode featuring Super Castlevania IV. Join us as Casey and Catherine create a theory tying everything to wall meat, while Blake explains his beef with this game. 

After almost a year long hiatus Backloggers Anonymous returns with a game to get you back into the Halloween spirit: Castlevania. Casey, Catherine, and Blake all tried to finish off Dracula before they got 25 Game Overs. Did they succeed? Did they fail? Check in to find out then try the challenge yourself! Then give Super Castlevania 4 a try for when the three of them return next time!

Opening Song: Terror Time Again (Skycycle)

Closing Song: Stage 1 of the Castlevania 1 OST

Casey, Jamie, and Blake are back from Tomb Raider: Legend. Join our level by level breakdown of the experience while Casey gives his thoughts on Lara's character, Jamie expresses his love of the swan dive and Blake rants on why he hates London.

Just in time for anyone anticipating the new Rise of the Tomb Raider, here comes Backloggers Anonymous with one of Lara Croft's older adventures: Tomb Raider: Legend. Before her franchise was rebooted in 2013, it was rebooted in 2006 as Lara traveled around the world in search of artifacts. Join us as Casey laments for past days of the franchise, Blake trashes the 2013 reboot, and Jamie gets excited over grappling hooks!

Tomb Raider: Legend is available on the Playstation 2, Xbox, Gamecube, PC, Xbox 360, and PSP. It is also on the Playstation 3 as a part of the Tomb Raider Trilogy.

Intro Music: I've Been Everywhere (Johnny Cash, 1996)

Outro Music: Figther (Christina Aguilera, 2002)

Casey, JD, and Joaquim are back after playing Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. Join us as Casey rants on the combat, JD raves on the platforming, and Joaquim makes smart ass quips for a discussion with lots and lots of sidetracking.

Intro Music: One Way or Another (Blondie, 1978)

Outro Music: Back in Time (Huey Lewis and The News, 1984)

Backloggers Anonymous is back with the most controversial of the Prince of Persia titles. Join us as JD explains why he loves this series and game in particular while perparing himself for future backlash, where we also discuss The Sands of Time, Ubisoft abandoning the series for Assassin's Creed, and the future of the cinematic platformer genre.

Intro Music: Time in a Bottle by Jim Croce

Outro Music: Untitled Self Portrait by Will Arnett (from The Lego Movie)

Casey, JD, and Joaquim are finally back with their thoughts on Dead Space 2. Come as they give their thoughts on the scares, standout moments, story, characters, multiplayer, series as a whole, and....well...let's just say things get kind of weird.

Backloggers Anonymous is finally back, this time with a new cast! Join Casey, JD, and Joaquim as the three of us tackle the horrors of Dead Space 2! Yet, are these actual horrors or is this a violent shoot em up disguised as a horror game? And is this a bad thing? We discuss this and more!

New to the franchise? The game offers a cutscene to catch you up on the first game! Played 2 already? Try the New Game Plus then! Anyone and everyone is welcome to play along with us through this game! So pop Dead Space 2 into your PS3, 360, or PC and join us on an adventure surviving in outer space!

No... Not fans of Backloggers (although that would be nice) I decided since the FFX soundtrack is already world famous, I'd throw in some fan made versions of some of the music. If you like what you hear, they're all from YouTube. I'll post the links so you can hear the songs in their entirety.

Sadly, Jamie couldn't make the recording and, although I said in the show he would contribute something in writing, he hasn't had time to do that either. That's the thing about being an adult, sometimes you just can't make all the time you'd like for your hobbies.

Anyway, check out our final thoughts, and here's the links for the music used in the show in the order they appear. Enjoy!

TPR - Yuna's Theme (Piano Version)

Family Jules - To Zanarkand

TPR - Servants of the Mountain (FFX Mt. Gagazet Theme)

Frank Hamilton - Final Fantasy X Battle Theme

This time on Backloggers: Julian knows everything about this game, Jamie is fed up with Blitzball (Julian too I guess), and  Angelo can't remember any character's name! Bad voice acting is good! Chirpy young characters aren't obnoxious! FF XIII might not be as bad as I thought! (OK, wait, yes it is, anyway) CHAOS! CHAOS!

Speaking of chaos, we had some serious issues recording this. I had to do a ton of editing to get the podcast to sound decent, but there's going to be some skips, choppy speech, and robot voice happening. Anyway, enjoy the show, share some more comments we can discuss on the next show, and we hope you're enjoying this as much as we are.
