This week, we travel back in time to a place called… The 90s. Well, we found out it was the 90s, like three-quarters of the way through the movie, and that's okay. It was a deep dive into YA territory for us this week in This Is Not A Test, which felt like a zombie after-school special. Is it good? Is it bad, or is it just kind of meh? We break it all down. Light on news this week, but we chat about the teaser trailer for The Walking Dead: Dead City Season 3, which looks surprisingly good, and Plants vs Zombies will have a board game if it's Kickstarter goes well. Really EA? Just cough up some money, you bunch of cheapskates!Discussion00:00:00 - News00:18:03 - This Is Not A TestComing up on ZAMP!

While the podcast team is taking a Radical Sabbatical, Kim is interviewing authors of the books that have had a big impact on her in the past two years. In this episode, Kim speaks with Steven Johnson, co-founder of Notebook LM, not about AI but about his book, The Infernal Machine: A True Story of Dynamite, Terror, and the Rise of the Modern Detective. They start with the story of how the Swiss dominated the watch industry for over a century, thanks to a highly decentralized network of cottage laborers in the Jura mountains. The culture of autonomy in the industry was so strong that it turned Swiss watchmakers into some of history's first anarchists, which in the 19th century simply meant self-organization. The movement became associated with disorder and violence after many anarchists adopted Nobel's invention of dynamite as their weapon. The public outcry against their violent attacks on heads of state and industry led to many modern surveillance techniques, including wiretapping and fingerprinting.. Steven and Kim speculate that some approaches to company-building in Silicon Valley have embraced bottom-up self-organization principles of the Jura mountains. They explore how we might have a viable alternative to capitalism and socialism today if anarchists had not embraced dynamite. They agree it's not too late to imagine that viable alternative–maybe one of them will write that book. Guest Background: Steven Johnson is the Co-Founder and Editorial Director, NotebookLM; Author of 14 books on science, technology, and innovation; co-creator and host of BBC/PBS series How We Got To Now and Extra Life. He is the host of the podcast The TED Interview and the author of the newsletter Adjacent Possible. He lives in Brooklyn, New York, and Marin County, California, with his wife and three sons.

But Adventure Island III was a huge part of my childhood. So this week I'm reminiscing about the entire NES trilogy.If you haven't played these one, you play as a chubby caveman in a ball cap (I can relate) trying to save a girl. You platform, throw axes, skateboard, ride dinosaurs, and eat too much. Honestly? These games are among the biggest hidden gems in the NES library, and I hope this episode convinces a couple people to give them a run.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I was 12 when I started playing Pokemon Blue, and while I've been in and out of the series since, Gen I has long been a favourite of mine. So when Nintendo dropped the remakes of those games on the Switch, I knew it was time to show them a little RTG love. FireRed and LeafGreen are absolutely the definitive way to play Pokemon Gen I. Better graphics, more Pokemon, quality of life improvements, deeper mechanics, they're phenomenal games. Are they good enough to break my nostalgic ties to the OGs? Have a listen and find out.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You control this little black ball with a star face and use its Mr. Fantastic-esque arms to grab enemies, ledges, walls, and try not to die. It's not the most memorable game I've ever played, but it actually doe sa lot of things I normally hate very very well. A hidden gem in my books.Ye olde Bradley McCue is my guest this week and we talk about our likes and dislikes of fighting balls with stars. I'm not sure what else there is to say. Fun game.And before we shoot for the star, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone shouts out the Nintendo 64 for changing the gaming landscape. What modern games are 'NES tough'? And where do I stand on the 2003 TMNT animated series??Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One'!! This one features 3 Genesis games featuring weird mascots: Vectorman, Rocket Knight Adventures, and Dynamite Headdy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This was the one that introduced by the Mega Buster and Eddie. Eddie is great, but the Mega Buster is a little more...controversial. I don't know anyone that HATES it, but there's a group of Mega Man fans that prefer to play WITH it, and a group (that I'm part of) that prefer to play without it. whether you like the big buster or not, it doesn't take away from the fact that the Mega Man team was on their game in these days, and I think most would consider MM4 a classic game and valuable member of the NES 6.The Dr. Light to my Dr. Wily, Dan from Dissect That Film returns to this week to talk Mega Manning. This is his personal favourite of the OG series, and we talked for over an hour about the legendary robot master lineup, tweaks to the classic gameplay formula, and that sexy swinging soundtrack.And before we whip on Wily again, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks my thoughts on the recent StarFox reveal (and I fumble it hard).

It had a lot going against it for this review because I JUST finished Resident Evil 9 (which is newer and spectacular), and it's been 7 whole days since our last "slow motion shooter" game review, but to F.E.A.R.'s credit it left a great impression on me because a good game is a good game.If you haven't played this one, you play as the "point man" on this squad of, I dunno, shooter guys? You're investigating this company that's somehow making telepathic monsters and spend most the game sneaking around killing other shooter guys controlled by monsters. It's better than I described.Captain N of the Retrotopia podcast joins me this week and carried my uneducated ass through a good review of a great game. We do spoil, so you've been warned, but I don't think anyone is still reading this anyway.And before we get scared, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks if I'll ever stop buying new game consoles? Is there any chance I someday leave podcasting for another "career"? And if I was challenged to play through an entire console's catalog, which would it be??Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

You basically go from room to room killing people and every now and then it gets interrupted by gritty comic book panels.

From a polish standpoint, I think it does for sure. But personally? Ehhhh....Prime 2 is objectively a well made game. The polish is there, great story, graphics, soundtrack, exploration. It splits the game's map into 2 distinct worlds, and on paper that's a great idea (as Link To The Past proves). But in execution it seems to be little more divisive. And while some people love this game, I found the maps and dark world equal parts brilliant and frustrating as fuck.My guest this week is our resident Metroid junkie, Stpd Mnky. He's the biggest Samus fan I know, and we went for an hour talking the lights and darks of Samus vs Samus, and discussed whether or not we think this game surpasses its predecessor.And before we morph into balls, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks for advice on being a creator when you run into setbacks?

So I finally fired it up for a Valentine's week episode of RTG, and dammit, it's true. Sega did what Nintendidn't.For the record, I really like both games. But the Sega version looked better, sounded better, and killed me better. I found it much harder than its SNES counterpart, and that's a good thing. Great fucking game.Pending RTG Hall of Famer Mark McCue is my guest this week (as he was for the SNES episode all those years ago), and we both agree that while any Aladdin is good Aladdin, this is the premium experience.And before we make a wish, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks why games have such short times in the spotlight these days and why the gaming world is so quick to move onto the next big thing?

This game's pretty sick.If you haven't played it, it's a standard sidescrolling shooter/platformer, but with one catch: no jumping. All your platforming is done with a grappling hook. It's a really ambitious concept with a learning curve to be sure, but for the most part I think it works great. Add in a map to explore, a story (kinda) and hitler's exploding head (seriously), and you have yourself a Commando that's Bionic, my friend.My buddy David Rae makes his return to the show this week and we're finally talking the game he's been holding me to play since RTG started. We're getting into the map, the difficulty, the grappling hook adventures, and yes of course, killing Hitler. All par for the course when it comes to the NES.And before we grapple I deliver another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week someone asks if RTG will ever join the video podcast ranks? What forgotten series needs a revival next? And am I planning to check out the Virtual Boy games on the Switch 2??Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 NES Capcom games: Mighty Final Fight, Code Name: Viper, and Yo! Noid.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
