Nathan finally plays Far Cry 3 and finds some things to enjoy in it (and promptly being forced away from those things). Paul gets annoyed at Black Ops 2‘s sorry excuse for a story and the two complain about issues with indie game developers selling incomplete products (Steam Greenlight is some bullshit, yo). New Community brings some concerns and documentaries on pornography and bronies are discussed.

Also, we dive into Nathan’s redneck history and talk some illegal activities.

The take-over begins as Nathan (better known as “Kraznor” by his legion of fans) joins Paul and Jon on a discussion about a game he loved as a kid. This episode marks a number of milestones including:

Nathan actually has NOSTALGIA for something!

Jon actually hates a game!

Paul actually doesn’t talk a whole lot!

Retro Killscreen actually stays on topic! (for the most part…)

This week’s game-along picks are Killer7(PS2/GC) and maybe Space Channel 5(SD) so find a copy of one or both and tune in a week from now for our discussion!

It’s the day after the Super Bowl and Nathan nor Paul seem to care too much. Apparently some people think Borderlands 2 has racist characters, Bullet To The Head is kind of garbage and Receiver is a decent tech demo prototype but shitty “game”.

Also, “dueling” ain’t what it used to be and we say happy birthday to a known friend by drinking amazing coffee… in a bar?! (well, Paul got drunk too anyways)

Although Jim Crawford has had a love for video games for a long time and been making games for almost as long, it was a flash game in the final quarter of 2012 entitled Frog Fractions that won over the hearts of many gamers with its finely tuned homage to a variety of old style games and charming ridiculous nature. We chat about game jams, the dangers of Tarantino film themes and how badly video games end.

Oh, and we talk some Frog Fractions but you might just want to play it first if you haven’t!

After putting it off for so long, Jon and Paul finally get to playing Parasite Eve & Die Hard Arcade and try to catch up by talking about BOTH! Please note, there is some Parasite Eve spoiler talk here and there when it’s brought up but let’s be honest… if you cared about spoilers, you would’ve played it by now!

Also, a well-known friend of the show sends in an email in an attempt to squeeze in some movie opinions!

I met Lauren back when Destructoid was home to The Podcastle podcast, which she co-hosted with John Kershaw (wardrox) andJim Sterling. Since then, Lauren has finished her post-secondary education in journalism and has been carving her name into the games journalism industry with her enthusiastic and blatantly honest approach to video game criticisms.

Make sure to follow Lauren on twitter and keep up with her thoughts on her site!

After a long weekend at the Global Game Jam, Nathan is understandably exhausted so we bring in Eno Metzo (www.theawfulgamer.com) to talk about the latest action movies, the confusions of buying a Nintendo DS, whether the Evil Dead remake will be any good and what’s REALLY important in movies these days (hint: show title).

Also, our new movies writer, Matt Jamieson, joins us after the break to talk about Movie 43.
