Error Machine Podcast

In case you haven't heard, the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. came out, and it's all Chris and Luke care to talk about. When Dustin is able to finally get them to talk about other things, they discuss topics and games like Infamous: Second Son, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, Borderlands: The Pre Sequel.

We also tackle the new releases (maybe you've heard of a little game called Super Smash Bros?) As well as Luke telling us what the game Alphadia Genesis is about. Turns out it's a Tyler Perry game where Madea goes back into the time of Genesis.

We also talk about things like the high going price for a Smash Bros. Gamecube adapter, the double cannon Samus Amiibo, and in our discussion time this week, we recap WWE Survivor Series.

All this and some listener questions.

We are all over the board this week. Luke almost gets into two fights, one with a human and one with a raccoon. Chris is Xbone-less, and Dustin HATES Proteus.

Games of the week this week include Diablo 3, GTA San Andreas HD, Bayonetta, Mega Man X3, and Mega Man 6.

We also enter the season where every videogame is getting released, and we only covered a fraction of all the games that came out this week.

Did you hear that Sonic Boom and Assassin's Creed Unity are glitchy nightmares? We talk about that, as well as the PS4 turning one, and the fact that Shigeru Miyamoto has spent 61 years of his life without a PS4.

We end it by discussing some of the Black Friday deals, as well as our thoughts on the "holiday" and the few crazy instances where we've stood in line overnight for videogames.

With Christopher unable to record, and Dustin and Luke being short on time this week, they decided to try something new. It's not quite a minisode, but it's similar. Both of them have recently removed games from their backlog, with Dustin playing The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, and Luke playing The Last of Us. Luke, being a big advocate of A Link to the Past, interviews Dustin about his thoughts on the game, and Dustin likewise does the same for Luke for The Last of Us.

Maybe you guys missed it, but a fairly big game came out this week. That game is called Woah Dave! Just kidding (although that is real game that was released). We are, of course, talking about Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. This week we use our topic discussion time to discuss the series. Is it overhyped? Is it losing its luster? What's our favorite in the series? We also discuss why it shouldn't be played by children. Also, Dustin discusses his experience working the GameStop midnight release for the game.

Games of the Week:

Dustin - Alien: Isolation

Luke - Bayonetta

Chris - GTA: San Andreas HD

A show two weeks in a row? The stars must have aligned just right. Halloween is upon us, so the guys took it upon themselves to talk about games (and movies, and other things) that remind them of the candy obsessed holiday. There's talk of some survival horror games, and some cult classics like Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Alan Wake.

Dustin talks about his (somewhat) disappointment with Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, Luke's shop vac adventures, and Chris' record-SHATtering bathroom escapades. They also tackle some new releases, talk about the Xbox One price drop, and discuss the finished version of the Nintendo Amiibos. And in our new segment, Luke tries to describe the game Lords of the Fallen with no prior knowledge of the game.

Also, Rob Zombie should stop making movies.

No clever titles this week, just the regular rundown of stories, games, new releases, and news. In this episode Dustin laments on the loss of his best friend, the guys discuss some Smash Bros. and Mario Kart related news, they talk about the dude that randomly found a $30,000 Magic card, and Luke inadvertently invents what may become a new segment where he takes a new release and describes what it's about with no knowledge of the game itself. After the break, the guys come back and do a retrospective on the Castlevania series.

Games of the Week

Dustin - Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor

Luke - Smash Bros.

Chris - Smash Bros.

With Heather and Dustin once again unable to make the show this week, the remaining crew recruited friend of the show Eric Snedeger to fill in. Due to the recent 125th anniversary of Nintendo, the three take it upon themselves to talk about their personal histories with the company.

With Dustin and Heather’s absence, Luke and Chris cope the only way they know how: With Video Games! Luke also talks about how his wife almost got robbed, Chris busts out his ol’ NES collection so the boys can reminisce about the good, the bad, and the ugly of the library’s box art, and Jessica Rabbit is hot

Don't forget, there's still time to donate to us for our Extra Life Charity gaming marathon.

What a wonderful day for a podcast. The whole crew is here and they're bringing you all the excitement. They discuss things like the Monday Night War series on the WWE Network, Luke watches a bad movie based on a good book, and Chris' nose exploded and killed a guy. Not really, maybe.

We also speak a little bit about the new 3DS XL bundles and our first impressions of the Super Smash Bros. 3DS demo.

Games of the Week

Dustin - Professor Layton vs Phoenix Wright

Heather - Alice vs. Wonderland

Luke - Splatterhouse

Chris - DuckTales Remastered & Super Mario RPG

Then after the break, we discuss the different variations of consoles in our topic discussion. Things like the top-loading NES, the different designs of the PS2, and the ridiculous amounts of Nintendo handhelds.
