Hinge Problems

Rudie and Chris discuss Edge's 100 Greatest Videogames of All Time 100-50.  Music from the Metal Slader Glory Soundtrack.

Another one we (Rudie) let sit on my harddrive for far too long.  Thanks for listening!

Another podcast from our massive backlog.  Rudie buys a PS4 and Chris has had a PS4.  We discuss hating GTAV, enjoying Destiny and Killfall:The Shadow Zone.

Chris and Rudie sit down to talk about the game news of 2015.  They continue their strictly business love affair with Koei-Tecmo. The least editted episode of hinge problems ever!

Rudie met up with Colin of the Virtuacast to get a Darius hoodie. Try Virtuacast here: http://directory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/59135

Chris talks Shadows of the Damned. Rudie talks Pier Solar.  Neither of them want more video games but will probably still buy them. This was recorded a long long time ago and we never uploaded. Please ignore the news that is wrong or has changed.

Cousin Chris is enjoying Hyrule Warriors.  Cousin Rudie really really hates Dying Light.  Will he give up video games?

Rudie sits down with James Howell (@adilegian) to talk a long time about The Evil Within.

Rudie is dissapointed in Dangan Ronpa.  Chris wishes he had more strong opinions about specific RPGs.

We still aren't editing things that much, but that doesn't make us quicker to upload things.  However, enjoy this supersized episode of Hinge Problems, featuring Rudie and Chris versus the world of Konami, and maybe a discussion of the MOST IMPORTANT videogame.  Ever. Really.

So we've decided we edit things too much.  So we aren't doing that any more. No edits, just tag an opening and an ending on and away we go.  So sorry if this is a little rough.  But this is what we are doing.   On this episode, Rudie and Chris tackle some weird otaku shit that the US is somehow actually getting translated, and then maybe the best spoiler about 999.  Don't worry, we warn you about it.  It's worth hearing though because WHOA.

Rudie and Chris talk about the Wii, and maybe some stuff that was OK for it.  And probably some stuff that wasn't.  Of course, they talk about other stuff as well because we never remain on topic here.  Enjoy...?

Rudie and Chris dive into some recent games with some probably pretty offensive content, but then realize how dumb they are (not that stupidity is an excuse, really).  Dragon's Crown, DmC, Resident Evil 5, and Lost Planet 2 get their time in the spotlight, especially Lost Planet 2.  Go play Lost Planet 2.  Do it.

Chris and Rudie try to untangle Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance and the franchise as a whole.  If you've never tried this, you just have no idea how complicated it can get. Ganbare, Hinge Problems.

Rudie goes to Japan, and shares the fruits of his trip.  We get creeped out by AKB48 too.  This seems like the only possible reaction someone could have.

Rudie and Chris talk about Red Dead Redemption.  We try to avoid spoiling it, but then we spoil it, but we give plenty or warning ahead of time, so you can bail out if you need to.  We also talk about Chris's custom soundtrack for the game, and Rudie's best glitches in the game.  And we get sidetracked, because we always get sidetracked.

Rudie and Chris discuss some semi relevant game news, and then delve into the Nintendo 64 Zelda games, coming out slightly dissatisfied, and longing to be kids with innocent views of everything again.  So, you know, normal life and all.

In this episode, Rudie goes slightly pre-dumpster diving in the Gamestop PS2 bargain bins, which leads to discussions of Flipnic and a few other not-quite-notable games.  Then Rudie and Chris settle into talking about one of the strangest, most wonderful game developers ever, Kenji Eno.  He might be an alien, but that is A-OK.

In this episode, Rudie talks about actually enjoying the much-maligned Ninja Gaiden 3, and Chris talks about not really enjoying the rightfullly ignored White Knight Chronicles.  The first time editing for Rudie, so let us know if you have any thoughts. We also introduce our new theme song, "Dreamcast", by Jerkbait.  And if you can't get how well that fits, I don't know what to tell you. Intro: "Dreamcast" by Jerkbait Interlude: "Ancient Ship of Doom Act 1 Stage 1" from the Ninja Gaiden 3 OST Closing: "Dreamcast" by Jerkbait

Oh heck, we are back! A grab bag of topics, starting with what Rudie has been playing lately, then touching on the Siren series, the much-maligned Marc Ecko's Getting Up, and a whole host of other topics.  Hence the weird title. Intro Music: "Monochrome Roulette" by Masanori Akita from the Enthusia OST. Interlude 1: "Cradel of Forest" by Akira Yamaoka from the Silent Hill 4 OST.
