Text us and say hello!In episode 25 of "Backwards Compatible," Lou and I dive deep into "Batman: Arkham Asylum," a game we rank as one of our all-time favorites. We explore its significant impact on the genre of superhero video games, highlighting how it refined the elements of stealth, combat, and atmospheric storytelling within the context of a complex Batman narrative."Batman: Arkham Asylum" is renowned for its engaging gameplay that fully immerses players in the role of the Dark Knight. We discuss the game's groundbreaking combat system, the strategic use of gadgets and the environment, and the psychological depth added to characters, especially the villains who are as twisted as they are intriguing.In this episode, we also introduce our new scoring system (still workshopping an official name for it), rating the game across five categories: gameplay, graphics, music/sound, story, and replayability. Each category is carefully evaluated to give listeners a thorough understanding of why "Arkham Asylum" is so highly regarded. We sum up the scores to give it a final rating out of 100 possible points. Listen to the end of the episode to discover how "Batman: Arkham Asylum" scores and why it remains a benchmark for superhero games.Support the showWe've got merch!Check out the site for some awesome Gen 'S' swag :)

For the finale of Dead Space month we take on the third game in the main trilogy: Dead Space 3 (obviously). We discuss what our reactions were to this entry in the series and how we felt about it now the series has concluded.
Part 2 of our month of Dead Space. This week we look at the sequel 'your mom' hates: Dead Space 2. We discuss all the differences between the two games, the marketing campaign, and go off topic to share some stories.
This month we're taking on all three mainline Dead Space games and this episode we start at the beginning with the first game (obviously). Find out what we thought of the game that started it all. We also discuss first person vs third person viewpoints, and what scared us.
Last week, we tried to talk about all of the games in one episode. That didn’t turn out well, so this week we are just talking about War for Cybertron (the console/PC version). Join SoundJack and Zeus in talking about contradictory Megatrons, Optimus always being Optimus, and… space slugs? Also Chrystabella is here and she gets really mad at this game.

Nikki has already discovered she will earn no points for The Playboy Club as her bet is proven wrong with the airing of the first episode. With the second episode four days away and no announcement of cancelation, Matt and Cody are likely to also get a heaping plate of humble pie, but things are looking good for Amby's bet of a mid-season cancelation due to it placing last with just barely over 5 million viewers. Things are not looking good for Cody on his bet that Whitney would be canceled before it ever airs as it has yet to be canned with the first episode airing the day after this recording. Amby

Time to get reacquainted with the full Horrible Show cast and what better way to ease into things than to go over the news of the past month. In our Threesomes of the Week, Cole gets a bit too close to the Pawn Stars cast and Ethan finally figures out what is wrong with Michigan. Our On the Spot question looks back at the recent Horrible Night Out and asks: Are there any good games at Dave and Buster’s? Sure, September was a busy month with PAX, TGS, and a Nintendo conference, but we could have sworn someone said Duke Nukem Forever was really going to be released.
