Pokémon duke it out in this spin-off fighting game from the developers of the Tekken and Soulcalibur series.
It's the annual E3 press conference review show! Zac and Rob face the challenge without Dan to give a chronological sequence of all that happened on the stage of games. In this ridiculously long episode we cover all the major press events: EA, Microsoft, Bethesda, Ubisoft, SONY and Nintendo, potentially in that order.
"Negative Chromostereopsis" is one of the words I learnt this year and so are “post-truth” and “Brexit”. But while there's a lot of bad stuff to take away from this year you can also learn about the great year of games we’ve had and the SaladCast is ready to educate you. There’s also some sucky stuff for balance and fun but let’s celebrate! This special SUPER-LONG episode has us figuring the best of the best that we saw and honoring them with possibly the least prestigious GOTY on the internet.
Season 7 is here and so too is our new audio gift. A new theme tune... hold on we don't have one? Well I guess you can have some old jaunty brass instead.
In this episode there’s tragedy, news and reviews! Nintendo Direct, Microsoft’s PC game, Mario, Hand of Fate, Picross, Cities, and not Harvest Moon.
What else did we forget? Oh bugger there’s that Life Is Strange coverage we don’t talk about.
The Wii U really wants you to know about Nintendo Direct. It's really important to it that you watch it in action and give it your warm encouragement. In fact it won’t shut up about it. Beeping and dinging and jingling in the corner of the room. Frustratingly needy thing. You know sometings it makes you feel like you could just.... oh shh shh, it’s coming over.
Hey Wii U how’s it going? What you got there? A suspiciously heavy looking lead pipe with Mario Tennis written on it? Better cut to the SaladCast before I listen to everything you could possibly say you wonderful console you.
At this moment, writing something topical and entertaining seems to be the last thing my brain wants to attempt. Having just finished my working day, my thoughts are littered with fragments of code, all swimming through a sea of tabs, keywords and semicolons, battling for my attention. They will not get it now but their time of rest is some way off. Developers are weird.
In this episode we discuss our old game making endeavours (again), Unity, New 3DS, Twitch, Quantum Break, Pokken, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Geometry Wars 3: Dimensions, Gamergate, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, Starbound, Kerbal Space Program, Batman: Arkham City, Civilization V, Mario Kart 8 and there's also our "now fast becoming a regular feature" bit where Zac gives FTL advice.
