Ep. 425 – Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!!

November 01, 2017 05:01 - 73.7 MB

Now let's come out boxing! So far we've been playing through the NES Classic games alphabetically, but for this episode we're switching up the order for a special reason. Drew Rowland (long-time listener, fellow podcaster and friend of the show) is tying the knot with Bailey (of Michael Jackson's Moonwalker fame) this week! Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! is one of Drew's favorite games of all time, so we've decided to talk about it and it's rerelease, Punch-Out!! (with Mr. Dream), in honor of the ...

October 11, 2017 05:23 - 102 MB

Dattebayo! We're taking a short break from the NES Classic games to talk about one of Dave's favorite games. Captain Gun Nerd Jon Turley joins us to talk about Naruto: Gekito Ninja Taisen! 4 (aka Naruto Gecko Ninja Mike Tyson), the 2005 GameCube fighting game by Tomy. In addition to talking about the game: we talk about the Naruto anime, we all decide which sitcom couple best parallels our individual relationships with our significant others, and we talk about Star Trek quite a bit. There is...

Ep. 420 – Crypt of the NecroDancer

September 27, 2017 05:01 - 114 MB

REANIMATE! We're taking a break from playing through the games on the NES Classic long enough to talk about Crypt of the NecroDancer with Rhythm Master Paul and Soul Sister Yarn Sorceress Chandra. NecroDancer is what it looks like when a rhythm game meets a roguelike dungeon crawler. Aside from game talk, we eat gross jellybeans; Chandra comes at us with some sweet sweet Garfield JOI; there are two (count 'em—two!) quizzes on this episode: a Wizard Quiz and a Necromancer Quiz; and there's pl...

Ep. 417 – Call of Cthulhu Wrap Up

September 06, 2017 05:01 - 53.8 MB

With the Call of Cthulhu Actual Play finished, we decided to sit down and discuss the game. We ask questions like: What did the investigators miss? How else could the story have ended? Why didn't Alex "Chili Dog" Peterson just uppercut Cthulhu? Joining the discussion is the sweetest pair of sweethearts you've ever met: Josh and Nicole (aka investigators Brock and Donna). Tyler explains the motivations and inspirations behind this game and Josh clarifies what he meant by "that ending sucks". ...

August 30, 2017 05:01 - 86.4 MB

Will Donna, Brock and Chili Dog successfully thwart Lafitte and stop the coming of Cthulhu? Or will the bones of the investigators find a new residence beneath the New York City docks?  Continue reading → The post Ep. 416 – Call of Cthulhu (Actual Play Part 9) appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Ol...

The Knights have been working against cult leader Jean Lafitte for hundreds of years and were able to help the investigators locate Lafitte's personal holdings in New York City: the Astor Hotel and several properties at the harbor.

Ep. 413 – Sonic the Hedgehog 2

August 09, 2017 05:01 - 77.7 MB

Over the last four years we've played through IGN's Top 100 SNES Games of All Time, Dorkly's Top 25 N64 Games, and this episode marks the end of our journey through Digital Trends' 25 Best Sega Genesis Games. We wrap the list up with DT's number one pick: Sonic the Hedgehog 2. It's a platformer developed by Sega...you might have heard of it. We also announce the next list we'll be tackling, we double up on quizzes, there's a story about bears and pancakes, and even a review of the new Coke Z...

Ep. 412 – Sesame Street Fighter

August 02, 2017 05:01 - 66 MB

So, here it is. The "missing" episode where we talk about Sesame Street Fighter by flavourmachine. We recorded this bad boy back in January and it's finally seeing the light of day. Why the delay? Well. The audio sucks (Internal Mike strikes again). But hey, if you like your podcast episodes extra grungy and "underground" then you might appreciate the audio quality (or lack thereof) of this episode. Naturally we talk about the game but we also talk about butt shelves. Butt shelves. Continue...

Ep. 411 – Samurai Shodown

July 26, 2017 05:15 - 86.2 MB

This is a game-heavy episode, which we guess is okay because it's "technically" a "video game podcast". Anyway, we're talking about Samurai Shodown, the second-ranked game on Digital Trends' list of 25 Best Sega Genesis games. Do not worry, we also talk about tee-ball.  Continue reading → The post Ep. 411 – Samurai Shodown appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Old Games.

July 19, 2017 05:01 - 87.1 MB

We’re back on the Digital Trends list this week—which can only mean one thing—it’s time for Super Street Fighter II for the Sega Genesis. We talk about the game for a bit, but more importantly, we try a Marmite grilled cheese sandwich. We also open a listener package, pee in Swift the fox’s mouth, and brainstorm some charity stream ideas.  Continue reading → The post Ep. 410 – Super Street Fighter II appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Old Games.

This recording picks up in Mr. Zeus's vehicle while en route to his temple.  Continue reading → The post Ep. 409 – Call of Cthulhu (Actual Play Part 7) appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Old Games.

Left with dwindling options, the investigators decide to track down someone who might be their strongest ally or their worst enemy.  Continue reading → The post Ep. 408...

Ep. 407 – Shining Force II (Part 2)

June 28, 2017 05:01 - 119 MB

Hi, we're just two boys taking a break from the equinarium long enough to record an NSFW podcast episode about a tactical RPG. Yep, that's right—we're still gushing about Shining Force II, DigitalTrends' fourth-ranked best Sega Genesis game. We open a package we received from Pinball Archmage Chris Edler and then talk about anthropomorphic animals who fight devils. Additionally, Tyler tries to shed his spider-sense by having his yes-yes hole washed out. Continue reading → The post Ep. 407 ...

Ep. 406 – Call of Cthulhu (Actual Play Part 5)

June 21, 2017 05:01 - 114 MB

The date is August 8th in the early hours of the morning. The investigators have recently had their minds broken and remolded into actual reality.

There will be skill ups!  Continue reading → The post Ep. 406 – Call of Cthulhu (Actual Play Part 5) appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Da...

June 07, 2017 05:01 - 95.1 MB

It's been awhile since the Suicide Boys have discussed something from Digital Trends' list of best Sega Genesis games, but here we are talking about Shining Force II. This 1993 tactical role-playing game is one of Tyler's favorites and is a completely new experience for Dave. There's actually lots of game talk in this episode but also a lot of catching up and announcements. Tyler blows Dave's mind with a skin-related revelation, we open what we think is candy, and Dave plugs the Twitch chann...

May 17, 2017 05:01 - 82.5 MB

It has been a little over a year since we have recorded an actual play of a tabletop role-playing game. So! We got the band back together. That's right, baby! TADPOG Sweethearts Josh and Nicole Nance join us to roll up some investigators for a Call of Cthulhu Actual Play entitled "August 5th, 1977". It's an original story by Tyler so it's kind of a big deal. It has been awhile since any of us have played Call of Cthulhu—so we spend some time shaking off the rust—but we assure you that charac...

Ep. 400 – Manhunt

May 10, 2017 05:01 - 112 MB

We're celebrating our 400th podcast episode this week by talking about Manhunt (kind of), the stealth-based survival horror PlayStation 2 game by Rockstar Games. Stand-up comedian Jorge Machean and Wizened Sage Ian join us to help talk about New Zealand's favorite game. We do a lot of other stuff too! We open a package from Kana Ha, we try cursed Nutela, Dave administers a hunt-themed quiz, we talk about television and we just end up talking about murder a lot. Continue reading → The post ...

May 03, 2017 05:01 - 94.2 MB

Princess Consuela Banana Hammock Virginity Thief Taryn joins us for our final all calls show (let's face it, probably not). We are answering voicemail from October and November 2016. Yep. We clear up some confusion about the origin of Dead Souls and Yetis and probably create more confusion in the process of explaining. We receive a gift from Mastermold Mike! We talk about dreams! We write a Skittles commercial. We talk about Football, BBQ and Jesus. And Taryn hears a voicemail that she forgo...

Ep. 398 – Ballz

April 26, 2017 05:01 - 67.1 MB

Because absolutely no one asked for it...we're talking about Ballz on this episode of the podcast! That's right, Ballz — the 1994 fighting game for the Super Nintendo and the Sega Genesis developed by PF Magic. Spoilers: We didn't like it much! We take breaks from administering smackies long enough to discuss Dead Souls and Yetis, talk about some Netflix shows, and answer some listener voicemail too.

April 19, 2017 05:01 - 90.4 MB

It's been a long time since we've talked about a Game Boy Color game on the podcast...some might say it's been ages! (Pause for laughter). Anyway, we're actually talking about two Game Boy Color games from a little-known indie series called The Legend of Zelda (you probably haven't heard of it). Yes, that's right. We're talking about Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages, each developed by Flagship (Capcom) and published by Nintendo in 2001. We also open a package from Trashbear Joe Willard, ...

April 12, 2017 05:01 - 92.3 MB

On this episode of the podcast, we return to Duckburg to talk about QuackShot, the 1991 Sega Genesis platformer developed and published by Sega. QuackShot (starring Donald Duck) has been on Dave's "List of Games to Play" for a couple of years now. Was it worth the wait? We open a couple of packages while we wait for the answer of that question. We also answer some listener voicemail. Perhaps most importantly, we debate the following superhero deathmatches: Batman vs the Ninja Turtles and Gok...

Ep. 395 – Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure

April 05, 2017 05:01 - 85.5 MB

This week we're talking about Boogerman: A Pick and Flick Adventure for the Sega Genesis. We asked the biggest Boogerman fan we know, Ryan (of being Tyler's Brother fame), to join us on this episode. Something weird happened to Galen so we end up calling Jacob to get the scoop. We announce the winner of the River City Ransom: Underground give away, and pick some listeners at random to win local Tater Day Festival shirts! We open two wonderful packages sent to us by anonymous listeners which ...

Ep. 394 – River City Ransom: Underground

March 29, 2017 05:01 - 100 MB

BARF! This week we're talking about River City Ransom: Underground by Conatus Creative, the new follow-up to the 1989 NES cult-classic River City Ransom. Of course you remember that Blake joined us to talk about the original River City Ransom way back in 2015 (Episode 184 for those keeping score at home). Here at TADPOG we strongly believe in tradition as long as it's cheap and convenient. So...good news, everyone (spoken in the best Professor Farnsworth impression we can muster)! We asked O...

Ep. 393 – Ultima Online

March 22, 2017 05:01 - 108 MB

We're joined by TADPOG Sweetheart Josh and Wizened Sage Ian to talk about Ultima Online, the 1997 MMO by Origin Systems. Things get hot and sweaty as we try a bunch of hot sauces sent to us by Faceful of Alien Wing Wong. Burger Bottom Jon gets a new title (sorry Jon). Dave becomes intoxicated by memories of virtual murder. Who knew four sweaty adult men crammed into a blanket fort could have this much fun?

Ep. 392 – All Calls with Bob EatsABaby

March 15, 2017 05:01 - 74.7 MB

All Calls are back, baby! We start by cracking open a package from Faceful of Alien Wing Wong. What's inside that package? Is it a bunch of a region exclusive Doritos? Probably! Then we answer some listener voicemail. Tyler makes an important request to TADPOG Nation for the name of a cartoon featuring a wizard who controls shapes. We talk about Weird Skeeter. It's revealed that Patron Saint Zach is old and TADPOG Sweetheart Josh is an immortal Mod God. There's more Hoarders talk. And we sta...

Drew and Bailey from Hops and Heroes join us to give their impressions of Persona 4, the RPG by Atlus.

Ep. 388 – Nekopara Vol.1

February 15, 2017 06:01 - 71 MB

Well here we are, continuing our annual Valentine's Day tradition of discussing an anime romance game with Rhythm Master Paul and Soul Sister Yarn Sorceress Chandra. This year we each tirelessly deliberated on what game to talk about. We journeyed across deserts, slogged through swamps and traversed via Tauntaun — all in search of the game with the perfect perversion. What game could possibly compete with Hatoful Boyfriend and HuniePop for igniting conversation? I'm not sure...but we selecte...

Ep. 387 – Double Dragon IV

February 08, 2017 06:01 - 75.3 MB

Hello, we're just two boys who took some time out of our day to talk about Double Dragon IV. 'Wait a minute! That's one of those new-fangled vidjya game releases, right?'

TADPOGlodytes! We must take up arms to defeat the profound evil that has invaded TADPOG Nation! Just like history's great warriors Cuauhtemoc, Miyamoto Musashi, and William Wallace, we compare and discuss Golden Axe and Golden Axe II for the Sega Genesis. During our epic journey through beat 'em up fantasy, we pause to replenish our health and invigorate our spirits by opening a package from listener Shane Davis. We cower in fear before a urethral plug and suffer defeat to a volley of voice ...

We finish talking about the game's story and the rest of the game's cast: Demi, Wren, Kyra, and Seth.

Ep. 382 – All Calls Talking About Mariah Carey

January 09, 2017 06:17 - 75.4 MB

Hey, wait a minute! Is this episode really about Mariah Carey, or are we just serving up some hot click bait? Either way, Melissa (aka Brainy Gatsby) joins us for an episode where we answer listener voicemail and text messages. What could possibly be more "Mariah Carey" than that? We talk about which games we've both spent playing; we discuss Sandwich Governors; we meet Chewbacco; we talk about Taylor Swift...kinda; and dad totally sends us a postcard from Beverly Hills!  Continue reading → ...

January 02, 2017 06:01 - 80 MB

Pinball Archmage Chris Edler returns! It's been awhile since we last recorded a show with Chris, so he made the journey down to TADPOG Blanket Fort to talk about Sonic the Hedgehog Spinball for the Sega Genesis. We answer hard hitting questions in this episode like: "Do actual pinball skills carry over to this game?", and "What the hell kind of video game system is 'the Acoreyn'?". Chris also talks about some of the cool new stuff in pinball, and we try some new potato chips. Continue read...

Ep. 379 – 2016 Year in Review

December 28, 2016 06:01 - 67.1 MB

We got the band back together for a 2016 Year In Review! We’ve got Jacob York (of wolf fighting fame), we’ve got Wizened Sage Ian “the hottest girl in the Annex” Chandler, and we’ve got Burger Bottom Jon Turley. Despite bragging about providing Jacob with his own microphone…he still sounds off-mic (not sure why!). So … Continue reading → The post Ep. 379 – 2016 Year in Review appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Old Games.

Ep. 378 – Final Fantasy Tactics (Part 2)

December 26, 2016 06:01 - 67.4 MB

In the midst of a Christmas flurry, we set aside a little time to finish talking about Final Fantasy Tactics. Even though we started discussing this game last episode, there's still a lot of game talk in this one. We're talking about a PlayStation game, so of course Mad Catz comes up, as does Final Fantasy XII. Tyler tells a GameStop story and we receive a postcard from Oxford.

December 19, 2016 06:01 - 77.2 MB

Welcome to the debut episode of Toots! We have an enormous backlog of voicemail and a dearth of free time, so we're calling an audible (sports!) and going with an All Calls episode. There's some good stuff in this episode. We open a package from Jack of Ziggy Moons, inside this package is an artifact which will leave ripples in the TADPOG Universe for years to come. We also talk about which Friends characters we are (again).  Continue reading → The post Ep. 376 – Toot Toot! All Calls! appea...
