Critical Strike

I can't believe it's been this long, but also I can totally believe it's been this long with the way the last year has gone for myself and the gang. While doing this I had to sit back and really remember how to compile and do all the work for an episode, that is truly sad. Anyway, thank you for listening to this and I hope you enjoy it, this episode has been lying around my drive for quite sometime so I figured I should finish it up and throwing something out there to just remind people that we aren't dead. Music in this episode: Street Fighter V, Shadow Warrior, NES Remix 2, Pepsi Man, Kirby: Star Allies, Darkest Dungeon, Path of Exile, Celeste, Doom (2016), Battle of Olympus, World of Final Fantasy and more!

It's been quite a bit of time since we've recorded and sadly it isn't for a lack of effort. Lots of personal things have popped up but lets also be honest, there has not been a lot of games to play, or any that we've at least felt like talking about. We did manage to get some stuff in, plus we had a pretty darn good listener question! Here is what we discussed this episode: Mario Kart 8, 20XX, more Mass Effect, Firewatch, ABZU, Final Fantasy XIV, and more.

Well here we are everyone, it's been over a year since our last actual sit down and get together type podcast. Somehow we decided we should do this again, who knows how long it will last? Either way, as usual it was a blast to dick around.

I just figured it would be fun to take a little bit of time and have everyone listen to how we progressed over the years. It was a lot of fun, and sometimes it's easy to forget that with everything else that happened in life while trying to squeeze in a podcast. We had our ups, our downs and anything else you could imagine, but it was an amazing time to do this with my friends over the years. I hope you enjoy it, sorry about the sound quality and some levels, not much I could do about that as I no longer have the original files and I don't want to spend ages cleaning it all up!

I have no idea what happened on this episode, we had a scheduled time so everyone showed up late. There was also some drinking and a severe lack of sleep which lead to one of us being extremely quiet. Here is what we discussed this episode: Bill's 8 days in Paris, Bloodborne co-op, and I'm not sure if there was anything else. Hopefully next episode we're back to normal.

We didn't really have much to talk about on this episode, not to mention one of us was very tired. But we squeaked out enough of a Bubo update and various other little arguments to get something out there! It's better than nothing, right? Here is what we discussed on this episode: Bubo meets shaft, coffee wars, Bloodborne, The Golf Club, Grand Theft Auto V PC. You can reach us at cstrikepodcast@gmail.com, leave a voicemail at (909) 278-7453 or Twitter at criticalstrike

So here we are, it has been a long long time internet! I've been bored recently and so I decided to stock up on some video game music again which kind of lead to me thinking I should do a music episode again.

Yeah I know, I remember I said we were done with our summer break and apparently we weren't! But we're here now, aren't we? So its been a long time, and even in that large gap between episodes it seems we haven't really played much because of things going on in our lives. Here is what we discussed in this episode: Grand Theft Auto V, Saints Row IV, Dark Souls, some unfortunate events and Bill's lack of interest in the next generation of game consoles. You can reach us at cstrikepodcast@gmail.com, leave a voicemail at (909) 278-7453 or Twitter at criticalstrike

We're finally (hopefully) back from our summer vacation from the show. A few things have changed here and there, Kyle is now an adult who owns a home and had to go through hell to get it and Bill is not here because he is enjoying a boring football game with a cheeseburger on his.... well you can figure it out. Here is what we discussed this episode: Kyle's hell of buying a house, Saints Row: The Third, DuckTales Remastered, Blizzard's new CCG in beta Hearthstone. Music in this episode: Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn You can reach us at cstrikepodcast@gmail.com, leave a voicemail at (909) 278-7453 or Twitter at criticalstrike

Its nice getting back to the basics and grinding out another music episode, but as usual I need to do my typical "I'm sorry" for it taking so long to do another one. As I explained on the show, I kind of forgot about this series for awhile, like I seriously forgot about it. We've had so much fun sticking to the schedule of the main show and hammering those out that it was pretty easy to forget and or not want to do one of these. Either way, its out now! Music in this episode: Street Fighter - Guile's Theme (Smooth McGroove), Deathsmiles, Sleeping Dogs, The Last of Us, Shadowrun Returns, King of Fighters XIII, Sonic & All-Stars Racing: Transformed, Defiance, LittleBigPlanet Karting, Terranigma, Rogue Legacy.

The full crew is once more united to bring you this fine episode that is kind of distracted early on due to Evolution 2013 being on at the same time. It's nice having Kyle back, this episode was full of laughs over unfortunate stories and hatred of birds. Here is what we discussed: Marvel Heroes, Borderlands 2 DLC, horse killing, Steam's summer sale, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings bugs and some listener questions.

This episode we are graced by fellow podcaster Shawn from the Geek & Destroy cast!

Now that our "little" summer break is over, we figured it was about time we got together and recorded a new episode! It was nice sitting down with the boys, even though we didn't have much to talk about in terms of games we still managed to make a fun episode out of it. Here is what we discussed: Leg infections, Josh's trip to Funspot, Minecraft,  Monaco: What's Yours Is Mine, Kraft macaroni and cheese, Marvel Heroes, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, Bill's new system purchases, and some listener questions!

After a brief break we once more return to the show and as expect from the complete lack of new games and all three of us being busy, we haven't really played much! But it's very nice that our fine listeners gave us a bunch of questions to go through so we could fill up a episode with that. Here is what we discussed this episode: Monaco: What's Yours is Mine, new Pinball Arcade tables, Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, and sorry for something you'll hear during the show.

The trio is finally reunited now that Kyle actually remembered we had a show and he needed his computer to do said show. It's fun to be back together with the boys but if you're worried about a game that came out recently, possibly named BioShock Infinite then you should be wary of some spoilers because even though they were told to mind what they say, I don't think they did. Here is what we discussed this episode: The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, BioShock Infinite, Evoland, Battlefield 3, Metal Gear Rising and a listener question! Music in this episode: Guacamelee! You can reach us at cstrikepodcast@gmail.com, leave a voicemail at (909) 278-7453 or Twitter at criticalstrike

Well its been since about January but I finally made my return to the show, sadly it wasn't a full reunion because Kyle "forgot his laptop" and couldn't contact us to say he couldn't be on it. Either way, Bill and I got together to do a recording and it actually features some video game talk for a change! Here is what we discussed this episode: Halo 4, Tomb Raider, Sleeping Dogs, Bit.Trip Presents Runner 2: Future Legend of Rhythm Alien, Arma III, Mass Effect 3.

I guess its safe to say this is a return to the past, I dropped the Critical Music name a long time ago and them eventually dropped doing music episodes all together. I've been thinking of picking them up again, I even went so far as to mention it on the show and I know some people have asked when it was actually coming, so here you go!

Nothing too fancy to mention other than we actually stuck with the schedule for a change.

Time for the second music episode of the year and it isn't the Super Nintendo one I promised, sorry!
