    While single games have been covered before on XVGM Radio, never before have we went into a soundtrack without hearing it period. Taking a page from our pal Ed Wilson over at The VGMbassy, we're doing a “Blind Listen” episode where we pick tracks we haven't heard, and learn about the game as we go along. The end result is a hilarious episode where Mike and Justin try to figure out PCM samples' origins, listen to a totally radical soundtrack we've never heard before, deal with an explosion in the studio…and take a caller request from…Janine?! It's all on this very exciting episode of XVGM Radio!
