Coming Up: ATFP Ep. 32

You’re the fastest m.f’er on the map. You’re kickin’ bombs left and right, chuckin’ ’em halfway across the screen. You’re surrounded by explosions, and the ones you set off are practically nuclear. The poor schmuck opposing you has no chance whatsoever, and everyone else is dead. The only thing between you and ultimate victory is this last little moron in white. You’ve almost got him cornered until… you trap yourself between two of your own bombs. Game over.

Bomberman ’93 on the TurboGrafx16 is lauded as one of – if not the – best in the Bomberman series, but why? Take a multiplayer journey with the ATFP crew as they discover whether it’s even a good game in the first place.

Coming Up: ATFP Ep. 30

1987 was a good year for action. Lethal Weapon, Predator, and Robocop all hit the silver screen. The NES was host to Mega Man and Castlevania, and arcades were overflowing with seminal titles like Metal Gear, Street Fighter, Double Dragon, and – of course – Contra. In a sea of incredible action, Contra set itself apart by being one of the first run-and-gun platformers to support simultaneous 2 player co-op – a feature that made it skyrocket in popularity in the arcades. That popularity carried over when the game was ported to the NES in 1988, and it has become one of the most popular franchises of all time.

Listen to the ATFP crew’s experiences with a game that’s widely considered one of the hardest to beat.

Coming Up: ATFP Ep. 29

In 1992, Sega lost their minds. An ambitious attempt for a 16-bit console, Kid Chameleon turns the side-scrolling platformer upside-down, allowing the main character to completely change characteristics by wearing masks of the different characters in the game. On top of that, the game’s series of flags and teleporters could send you careening down any number of branching paths, made up of over 100 different levels. So why didn’t the game have a save feature?

Join the ATFP crew as they watch Patrick’s sanity disintegrate while attempting to beat his Unicorn. Want to be part of the show? Post your comments, questions, rants and raves to the Ask The Hosts forum, or e-mail them to afterthefact@geekerific.com so the Crew can use them on the show!

ATFP Bonus Stage: The Best of 2010

The Best of 2010 is here! Look back at the ATFP crew’s first year on the air with a random collection of clips cobbled together in no discernible order… Some are funny, some are thoughtful, and some are just weird, but they all remind us why we love listening to these guys blabber on about the games we remember so fondly.

The ATFP crew would like to take a moment to thank all of the fans who’ve stuck with us and watched us grow over our first year. You’re the reason we do this every other week, and we hope you’ve enjoyed laughing and reminiscing with us over the last year. Here’s to many more years to come!

THANK YOU!!
