A cloud of melancholy hangs over this episode as we pay tribute to the legendary Ozzy Osbourne, the Prince of Darkness who recently passed away shortly after his farewell concert. His distinctive voice, unmistakable across decades of heavy metal mastery, leaves behind a legacy few artists can match. We share personal connections to his music, from how "I Just Want You" got one of us through difficult McDonald's shifts to the emotional weight of "Goodbye to Romance" in light of his passing.The conversation shifts into lighter territory as we dive into recent wedding DJ experiences, complete with elaborate setups featuring tap trucks, slushy machines, and guests dancing joyfully in the rain. These personal stories showcase how music continues to bring people together even in unexpected circumstances—whether it's playing the perfect song that gets everyone on their feet or watching people embrace the moment despite less-than-ideal weather.We tackle meaningful cultural discussions, from the groundbreaking significance of The Cosby Show in portraying a successful Black family to how political conversations have deteriorated into name-calling rather than respectful debate. Throughout these weightier topics, we maintain our friendship despite different viewpoints, modeling how mutual respect can exist alongside disagreement. The episode wraps with a nostalgic deep-dive into classic video game music from Nintendo and Commodore 64 games, celebrating how technical limitations birthed some of gaming's most memorable tunes.Whether you're a metal fan mourning Ozzy, someone who appreciates thoughtful political dialogue, or a retro gaming enthusiast who recognizes the first notes of Dr. Wily's theme from Mega Man 2, this episode offers an authentic window into how friends navigate both the profound and the trivial aspects of life. Subscribe to join our unfiltered conversations that range from heartfelt tributes to playful debates about which classic game had the best soundtrack!Send us a text message and let us know how awesome we are!

2025 Rerun Notes: A very unique episode in show history, the only time we ever did a "ThreeFer". It's a bit of a long episode, and this was back when I was still using a cheaper mic and less sophisticated production techniques, but I still remain very proud of this episode from a content perspective. Original 2022 show notes below! ------------------------------------------------------------------ Today's broadcast is C1E64 for Nerd Noise Crossovers, Thursday, 05/12/2022. Today's Crossover is "ThreeFer Thursday" - which is, among standard format Ch 1 episodes for "just ordinary occasions", our longest episode to date. So hunker down and buckle up for what is going to be quite the musical journey! Also the Ch 1 debut of the new mic, higher quality copies of the intro/outro background music, and my new production techniques.

 If you're tired of The Last of Us, well, it's really too bad. That's because Naughty Dog has updated The Last of Us: Part II yet again, this time with a so-called Chronological Mode that orders the game's chapters and subchapters sequentially. It's easy to mock this many updates, of course, but in reality, is Sony going above-and-beyond in keeping some of its older games alive? Shouldn't we applaud the years-long dedication to not only The Last of Us, but to God of War, Ghost of Tsushima, Days Gone, Horizon, and others? We discuss. Then: Twisted Metal's second season on Peacock gets a new trailer, STALKER 2 is finally confirmed for PlayStation 5, Final Fantasy IX Remake may be in trouble, Capcom acknowledges Mega Man, and more. Plus: Listener inquiries! If we could only play a single game-as-a-service, which would it be? Could gaming be entering a more serious phase, as the industry finds itself fused more with education? Is it crazy to play sequels without having experienced the original? What are the percentage odds Colin is on the precipice of becoming a Kingdom Hearts superfan?

Apparently, you can't keep a good grifter down, as Billy McFarland's seven-figure Fyre Fest deal collapsed, so he's hawking the brand on eBay like a box of junk. Meanwhile, Indeed and Glassdoor are laying off over 1,000 workers, probably to pay for the AI that's jacking up our electric bills. Speaking of AI, a Tesla robotaxi crashed itself while Elon Musk's Grok chatbot went full Nazi, which is of course being installed in Teslas "next week." Fittingly, X CEO Linda Yaccarino stepped down and promptly lost her blue check. To cap off the dystopian news, the DOJ is targeting an anti-ICE app developer, the 'click-to-cancel' rule is dead, and you can hack McDonald's with the password ‘123456'. The future is now, and it's dumber than we ever imagined.On the media front, Murderbot gets a second season, and the Jim Henson and The Beach Boys documentaries are must-sees. Sadly, Netflix canceled The Residence. We also got trailers for Neuromancer, Project Hail Mary, and Edgar Wright's The Running Man. Speaking of building the future, we took a deep dive into AI-assisted coding using tools like Cursor, building a functional app in hours with zero original code. It's a stark reminder that while the "free lunch" of AI development is ending, the future for junior coders is already cooked. This glorious new world also includes playing every retro game ever on your phone, thanks to emulators like Delta and PPSSPP and the Backbone controller, which led to a nostalgic dive into the classic soundtracks of Mega Man 2 and Wipeout XL. This all culminated in a personal victory: conquering all 4,678 boards in Mahjong Titan+, freeing us from our porcelain thrones.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

With Bend Studio laying off 30% of its staff as it gears up to enter a lengthy pre-production stage, it's clear their next release (should it ever materialize) will be on PlayStation 6. This is just the most recent example in a lengthening string of Sony absolutely botching its first party initiative, deploying teams on projects that make no sense, purchasing studios that have never even released a game, and complicating a service game strategy that -- at least on paper -- made a lot of sense. Where does the buck stop, exactly? And how lucky is Sony and the PlayStation brand that they've been able to coast almost entirely on external content and commercial inertia all the while? Plus: MindsEye is a complete disaster, Stellar Blade becomes PlayStation Publishing's most-played single-player PC port, Capcom and Konami reveal Resident Evil Requiem and Silent Hill Remake respectively, the Outer Worlds 2's $80 price point infuriates some, Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is somehow coming to PlayStation 4, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! When Colin talks about a hypothetical AAA Mega Man game, what exactly is he envisioning? Why did Microsoft include the PS5 logo so readily during its showcase? Will GameStop ever stop selling opened games as new?

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame Everyone around RTG Industries knows I love the NES, and the best games in the NES library are practically royalty around here. That exclusive list includes the Mario trilogy, both Contras, a ton of Mega Man, and of course, the legendary Mike Tyson's Punch-Out...  I have been trying to beat this game on and off for almost 35 years and still haven't reached the top of the mountain. For the longest time, Soda Popinski was my kryptonite. I couldn't beat him as a kid, and he just held court over me (is that a term?) every time I went up against him.

In comes Wesley to correct our poor assumptions and set us straight. This week, he's tackling the lore behind Mega Man X and how it relates to the original series on the NES.

It only took us 5 years.... but we cover the last of the Numbered X games, Mega Man X8.  After they did a game about trying new things, they went back to what worked.  We have a game that feels like a classic Mega Man X game with a fresh coat of paint of what the Ps2 can do. We talk X8 and also rank the series.  Come hear what we think of Mega Man X8.

It's been a very busy week in PlayStation Land. For starters, Sucker Punch's long-awaited follow-up to Ghost of Tsushima -- Ghost of Yotei -- has a release date. It'll be coming to PS5 on October 2nd, alongside a non-linear, almost Mega Man-like gameplay structure. We're excited! Let's discuss. Then: Bethesda's Oblivion Remastered has finally arrived, PS5's new firmware memorializes the 30th anniversary celebration once an for all, Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders light up the internet, Star Wars is getting a strategy RPG, and lots of others news, too. Finally: Listener inquiries! How come Sony subsidiary Aniplex isn't publishing Danganronpa-like The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy on PlayStation 5? Which existing entertainment properties would best benefit from the Supermassive/Quantic Dream "CYOA" formula? Is the Catholic Church really canonizing a "gamer saint"?
