Hey folks, it’s Julian. Man, it really sucks that Angelo has been out and we didn’t have Patrick on our last episode. We’re about to hit episode 100, but where is—OH DAMN, SON! ALL THE NERDS WITHOUT PANTS ARE HERE! That’s right! We’re finally all back together for a short and sweet Consumption Junction edition of NWP. Angelo talks about the misery of tonsil surgery, and trying to play Grand Kingdom while on pain meds. He has a bone to pick with Mighty No. 9, as well. Patrick is still on that Overwatch train, but took some time to play Alien Nation and preorder Final Fantasy XV. Julian still loves BioShock, and can’t get enough of Dragon Quest Builders. We talk a little about the state of Square Enix, and if you stick around after the outro you will hear some thoughts about the No Man’s Sky debacle. We aren’t recording again until October 25, but that will be our grand episode 100 as well as the return of Halloween Havoc! Don’t forget to chime in with your submissions for Stage Select and Chrono Crossing. Stage Select: What is the cutscene that scared you the most the first time you saw it? Chrono Crossing: What was your favorite game of 2005? FEATURED MUSIC: John Williams- Yoda and the Force Mighty No. 9- Ray Theme Dragon Quest Builders- Cantlin Resonance of Fate- The Beginning of Eternity

We're digging into another game from our backlog: Ninja Theory's Enslaved. We start by getting Julian's take on backlogged games from 2012, then we talk about what kind of a game Enslaved is. Rather than bog you down with what we discuss in the podcast (which you're gonna listen to anyway right? right?) I figured I'd show you some of the stuff we talked about on the podcast. So here's a video of Super Monkey Daibouken: Here are the bonus bosses from Mega Man: The Wily Wars along with the characters they parallel in the Chinese epic: Buster Rod. G (Sun Wukong, the monkey king) Mega Water. S (Sha Wujing, the water buffalo) Hyper Storm. H (Zhu Bajie, the pig guy) While I'm at it, here's Infernape, the pokemon JD brought up in the 'cast: Also, there's this, just for fun: Feel free to hit us up on Twitter or just reply in the comments below. We really want your feedback on stuff like this, and we're always looking for input about what games you want us to cover on Backloggers. I'm Angelo Grant (@pixlaj), and I'm joined this time by Julian Titus (@Julian_Titus), and JD (@AMythKnownAsJD).

Angelo Grant joins the heroes this week as we take on another evildoer in the industry of gaming … Online Passes! With the recent controversy revolving around Kingdoms of Amalur’s (which is amazing by the way) day one DLC, people are in an uproar. Are publishers wrong for using these crude tactics to protect their big bucks? Or are we gamers simply idealists who refuse to acknowledge the video game industry as a business? You decide this week on PixlTalk. David Jaffe Interview
