Watch Out For Fireballs!

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross grinding, posthumous fame, and Joss Whedon.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross, despite their lack of fitness, survive long enough to discuss E.V.O.: The Search for Eden. You have 4.6 billion years to turn from a fish into a human so that you can have sex with the planet Earth. And that’s just the beginning of how weird E.V.O. is, which is probably why so many people hold the game so dear. Has it aged well, or should it be sent back into the primordial ooze?

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross try out the skit material, bad organic art, and tattoos.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross will the second part of their Planescape: Torment episode into existence. And so it ends. We left off with a clue to find an old hag, but all we found was ourselves. Torment wraps up in a satisfying and mind-bending way, and there’s plenty to talk about as we dust up the final details of this narrative.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross software updates, Emmanuelle, not missing Bart at all (BOH!).

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross get saccharine about Klonoa: Door to Phantomile. Klonoa nyaahs like a cat and is anime as hell. He’s also fated to save the world of dreams from Ghadius, who wants to unleash nightmares into the world. Is this cult classic overrated? Underrated? Listen and find out.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross gender benders, corn orbs, and survival-horror based crushes.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross leap into bottomless pits of effusive praise for Silent Hill 2. James Sunderland is a haunted man in a haunted town. Beckoned to Silent Hill by a letter from his dying wife, James is tortured by guilt as he’s drawn ever closer to revealing his own terrible secrets.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross discuss Action Castle, the blind, and GamePro.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross grind Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee to a pulp. Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee is a puzzle platformer that was revered in its time for its beautiful graphics, excellent sound, and abundant character. Unfortunately, its trial-and-error nature hasn’t aged well. This is possibly the most negative we’ve ever gotten about a game.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross seedy hotels, Scrooge McDuck’s dark past, and free strategy guides.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross capitalize on the nostalgic popularity of Duck Tales. Duck Tales is regarded as one of the best NES games, and for good reason. Scrooge’s journey from the Himalayas to Transylvania to the Moon and back to Transylvania a few more times is one of the most novel and fun platformers around. Plus, that Moon music.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross Brian Doyle Murray, exposition, and Christmas memories.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross kvetch about Metroid Fusion. What began as the most divisive game WOFF has ever covered quickly became the game we loved to bash. Metroid Fusion is the black sheep of the Metroid series, having broken many conventions and flown in the face of what people loved about Super Metroid. Turns out, it’s not these strange design decisions we disliked, but other more fundamental flaws. Not even close encounters with the infamous SA-X could salvage this one.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross Downton Abbey, great lengths, and chronological perspective.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross survive after the end, and talk about the last half of Final Fantasy VI. Welp, we done lost. Kefka destroyed the world, and it seems like all hope is lost. The Returners have to conquer their pasts and regroup to storm Kefka’s tower, and bring rid the world of magic’s corrupting influence.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross game shame, literature, and college music.

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross perform a delightful and emotionally affecting opera about the first half of Final Fantasy VI. The Empire is casting a black shadow across the land, and the Returners fight an increasingly futile battle to keep them at bay. Everything changes when a mysterious and magical woman breaks free from her slavery to the Empire, and sets the end of the world into motion.
