Read transcriptGather around power-level enthusiasts and tournament fighters, because this week on Play Comics we're charging up our ki and diving headfirst into the legendary slugfest that is Dragon Ball Z: Budokai for PS2 and GameCube. That's right, we're looking at the 2002 fighting game that asked the burning question “What if we took the first three arcs of Dragon Ball Z and squeezed them into a button-mashing experience that makes even the most patient Z-Fighter want to go Super Saiyan with frustration?” Developed by Dimps and published by Infogrames (back when they still existed and weren't just a nostalgic memory floating in gaming's hyperbolic time chamber), this cel-shaded beatdown promised to let players experience everything from Raditz's surprise family reunion to Cell's perfectionist power trip. What it delivered was a fighting system so basic that even Yamcha could probably figure it out, paired with enough beam struggles to make your thumbs file for workers' compensation. Joining us for this Saiyan-sized discussion is the one and only Doc Issues from Capes on the Couch, because when you need someone to analyze the psychological implications of repeatedly punching people until they explode into light particles you call a professional. Together we'll explore how this game managed to compress roughly 100 episodes of screaming, power-ups, and “next time on Dragon Ball Z” frustrating end caps into a tournament format that somehow made sense. So grab your orange gi, practice your best Kamehameha stance, and prepare for an episode that's over 9000 times more entertaining than waiting five episodes for Goku to finish charging his spirit bomb. Will this manga-to-game adaptation achieve its final form? Or will it get sent to Other World faster than you can say “Kakarot”? Time to find out if this Z-Fighter deserves a senzu bean or a one-way ticket to Snake Way! Learn such things as: What happens when you try to balance Goku's overwhelming power level against characters who can barely survive a Saibaman encounter? Is there a psychological explanation for why watching grown men scream for five minutes while powering up never gets old? What's the secret to making players care about story mode when everyone already knows Goku's going to win everything anyway? And so much more! You can find Doc @CapesOnTheCouch on BlueSky, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and of course the Capes on the Couch website.

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels.  We're back to full strength this week and we've got all sorts of video gaming goodies to dig into, so let's get things rolling... Kevin gets things started off with his first impressions of ANIMAL WELL, after getting a chance to check it out over at our buddy DJ's place (from the early days of the podcast). After that, he shares some quick thoughts on Chibi-Robo!, which was recently added to the GameCube selection of games available via the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pass. Randall keeps us in GameCube territory after that, and gives us an update on his time with the original Luigi's Mansion, after recently polishing it off with his daughter. Finally, John closes us out with a quadruple threat of townbuilding games that he's been bouncing between on his Steam Deck.   Timestamps: ANIMAL WELL  -  00:03:29 Chibi-Robo!  -  00:12:27 Luigi's Mansion  -  00:17:40 John's Townbuilder Spectacular  -  00:30:40 ↳  Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising | Moonlighter | Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale | Merchant 64   Thanks for taking the time to listen!  If you'd like to find us elsewhere on the Internet, you can find us at:

Read transcriptHoly hybridized heroes and gamma-powered game adaptations, comic crusaders! This week on Play Comics, we're diving beak-first into the pixelated pandemonium that is Disney's PK: Out of the Shadows for PS2 and GameCube – because apparently someone thought the best way to honor The New Papernick Adventures (or The Duck Avenger for us North American folks) was to trap Donald Duck's superheroic alter ego in a 3D action-adventure that makes even the most patient gamers quack under pressure. Released in 2002 by Ubisoft Casablanca, this cel-shaded space opera promised to let players wield PK's X-Transformer gadgetry while battling the dastardly Evronians in their quest for galactic domination. What it actually delivered was a gaming experience that had all the depth of a Duckburg puddle and combat mechanics so repetitive that even One, PK's AI companion, probably wished he could compute his way out of this digital disaster. Joining us for this intergalactic expedition into mediocrity is Esh Johansen from the YouTube channel Fiction Addiction – a man who's already subjected himself to this very game and lived to tell the tale with his signature blend of wit and existential gaming dread. Together, we'll explore how this comic book adaptation managed to take one of Disney Italy's most innovative sci-fi superhero series and transform it into a linear platformer that makes rescuing scientists feel like actual work. So grab your cape and prepare for an episode that's infinitely more entertaining than grinding through the same alien duck enemies for hours on end – which, let's be honest, isn't exactly setting the bar at Ducklair Tower heights. Will this Evronians-versus-earthlings adventure redeem itself through sheer nostalgic charm, or will it vanish into the shadows faster than Donald's secret identity? Tune in to discover if this galactic game deserves a place in the Hall of Heroes… or should be banished to the Phantom Zone alongside Superman's worst enemies! Learn such things as: What else can Donald Duck get himself into? Did the developers even get to see the comics before working on this one? How many people are going to come ask me about doing other Disney Duck related games now? And so much more! You can find Esh on YouTube @FictionAddiction.

Number 994Doug Bowser is bowing out, and of course we've got a lot to say about it. There's also a ton of encouraging Switch 2 news coming from big-name third parties, which is exciting in multiple ways. There's also a very sensitive discussion in there concerning the Pokemon Co. and "world events," so consider this your warning. Mom Brain and I tackle all that and SO much more in what turned out to be a pretty darn good episode...we hope!

This is the ideal. With every Second Runs episode, I hope to find out I not only still love the game I'm playing, but that I love it even more. That was the case with Sleeping Dogs. I remembered liking it a lot the first time I played it, but I adored it the second time. I adored it so much, I made it one of the rare games I 100%-ed, completing every aspect of the game, DLC included. Not only that, but I think I might do it a second time with the original release (which is truly insane if I do it). Long story short, Sleeping Dogs is a fantastic game, one well worth playing if you've never played it before.

Read transcriptWelcome web-slinging warriors and joystick jockeys to another thrilling episode of Play Comics where we untangle the sticky situation of comic-to-game adaptations with the precision of Peter Parker trying to explain away his sudden photography skills! This week we're diving headfirst into the cel-shaded spectacular that is Ultimate Spider-Man, the 2005 game that took Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley's comic masterpiece and somehow convinced every gaming platform from here to the Daily Bugle that they needed a piece of this web-slinging action. Released across more systems than Spider-Man has quips in his arsenal—PS2, Xbox, GameCube, Game Boy Advance, and Nintendo DS—this Treyarch-developed adventure let players experience both sides of the symbiote coin. Whether you were swinging through Manhattan as everyone's favorite wise-cracking wall-crawler or stomping around as the terrifyingly toothy Venom, this game promised to deliver more comic book authenticity than J. Jonah Jameson has anti-Spider-Man editorials. Joining us for this ultimate discussion are two absolute legends from the podcasting multiverse: Derek B Gayle and Doug Fink, the dynamic duo behind Walloping Websnappers and a whole constellation of other fantastic shows on the Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective that may not be directly relevant to our web-slinging shenanigans today, but are undeniably brilliant nonetheless. When they're not busy dissecting every Spider-Man cartoon ever created or exploring the depths of various other pop culture phenomena, these two bring their encyclopedic knowledge of all things Spider to help us determine whether this game truly captured the essence of the Ultimate universe or if it just left us feeling like we'd been caught in one of Green Goblin's elaborate schemes. So dust off those early 2000s gaming controllers, practice your best Venom growl, and prepare for an episode that's guaranteed to be more entertaining than watching Eddie Brock try to explain his sudden career change from journalism to alien symbiote hosting! Learn such things as: Can you make a game that really fits in with the continuity of the comics AND have it stay that way? Will we sucker any artists into making Venomized versions of The Muppets? What kind of good butt battle would ensue between Venom and Captain America? And so much more! You can find Derek and Doug on a bunch of stuff on the Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective, including Walloping Websnappers, Skreeonk!, and Falling With Style. You can also find Doug on Novel Gaming and on BlueSky @ickybooley. You can also find Derek on Gimmicks and Lee Carvallo's Podding Challenge, and on BlueSky @derekbgayle.

FEATURING: Three solid hours talking about the September 12th Nintendo Direct.

Number 992Nintendo just had their longest Nintendo Direct ever, and we take an incredibly deep dive into all of it. I don't know that we've ever had such a lengthy, detailed Direct recap as this one! Lots of good, fun, funny and serious conversations. I feel like we're all different people after this episode!

Nintendo Direct Reacts, wooooo!

Episode Notes Brannon is joined once again by Dillon Flynn to make their predictions for the September 12th Nintendo Direct. Will they be right or will they die!? AGAIN?! Intro game start up noise: "Gamecube intro but it's a crossover episode" by 4096 This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

This episode is all about Shovel Knight, an action-platformer that takes much inspiration from classic games of the 8-bit era--like DuckTales, Castlevania III, and, most notably, Mega Man--and then uses that inspiration to make itself into a classic of this era. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day. (And if you haven't already, or are a listener and not a watcher, please like, subscribe, hit the bell, and all that jazz; it may not seem like much, but it goes a long way in helping support the show and site in general. I would appreciate it greatly.)

It's the last full episode of our Summer of Nintendo event and we're sending you off with a special one! The themes of Chibi-Robo! are timeless and human and more resonant in 2025 than perhaps ever before. The game's mechanics exemplify hard work in service of the happiness of others and - yes - the music works in concert with that gameplay. It's the kinda stuff that hits whether you're playing the game for the first time on Switch 2 or revisiting it for the first time since the GameCube days, as you'll soon learn from us; our toothbrushes in hand.(00:00) Intro(14:46) Housekeeping(24:36) Sean Capri Presents: The State of the Nintendo Music Address(35:16) Chibi-Robo!(2:22:58) YouTube Comment Oversharing Corner(2:31:34) Voicemails(2:57:56) Haikus & outro► Time Extension's interview with Kenichi Nishi✉️ Send email to bitharmonypod@gmail.com

Worum geht's? Super Stay Forever: Diesmal nehmen Fabian und Gunnar ein Spiel unter die Lupe, das bunt, laut und chaotisch daherkommt – und doch weit mehr ist als bloße Lizenzware. Statt grauer Dungeons oder futuristischer Schlachtfelder geht es mitten hinein in eine quietschgelbe Vorstadtidylle, die schon lange Kultstatus genießt. Dort warten nicht nur skurrile Figuren und absurde Missionen, sondern auch eine Spielmechanik, die man in diesem Kontext vielleicht nicht sofort erwarten würde. Klingt nach Spaß – und nach reichlich Gesprächsstoff für den Podcast! Thema: The Simpsons: Hit & Run Erscheinungstermin: 16.9.2003 Plattform: Playstation 2, Xbox, GameCube, Window-PC Entwickler: Radical Entertainment Publisher: Vivendi Universal Games Genre: Action Entwickler: Vlad Ceraldi, Yayoi Maruno-Chorney, Joel DeYoung, Joe McGinn Musik: Marc Baril, Danny Elfman (Simpsons Theme) Produktions-Credits: Sprecher, Redaktion: Fabian Käufer, Gunnar Lott Audioproduktion: Fabian Langer, Christian Schmidt Titelgrafik: Paul Schmidt Intro & Outro: Nino Kerl (Ansage); Trash80.com (Musik) In der Folge kommt Wolfgang Hamann zu Wort, der seinerzeit Projektmanager für das Spiel war. Wolfgang hat deutsche Wurzeln, spricht aber besser Englisch als Deutsch, daher haben wir das Interview auf Englisch geführt. Die Zitate haben wir im Podcast in Deutsche übertragen und nachvertont, als Sprecher kam Christian Rudolf zum Einsatz. Unterstützende auf Patreon und Steady erhalten in Kürze noch eine Zusatzfolge mit weiteren Anekdoten, Storys und Informationen zu Hit&Run.
