PB & Jason Issue 29: Viewtiful!

This issue of PB & Jason is brought to you by the letters M, V, and C. That's a roundabout way of saying I talk about Marvel vs. Capcom 3 some more in today's podcast. In addition, there's a brief bit about the "Anonymous" troll who chose to talk about my Marvel vs. Capcom 3 review, because why not?

The second portion of the podcast contains some talk about how Cubivore could become the ultimate game, followed by a bit more discussion of Dragon Quest VI, including my personal ranking of the DQ games I've played.

Sorry about the few-hours delay, folks! Expect next week's PB & Jason to be prepared and posted a little bit earlier and actually on Wednesday.

And slightly of note, my Marvel vs. Capcom 3 team is Tron Bonne, Viewtiful Joe, and Hsien Ko.

I'm really loving this embedded player. It has motivated me to listen easily at work while I crank out code. Made it easy for me to listen to last week's episode as well.

Seems like you really played a lot of Cubivore. I believe Chessa and I completed the game years ago, but I don't recall getting all the different transformations.

I will agree that with a few improvements to the core formula, it can be a mainstream, widely loved game. I'm not quite sure who owns the rights to the property (Nintendo?), but I doubt we'll see it revisited. I do think the 3DS would be a great platform for a sequel, though.

On MvC 3, I hope it gets patched to nerf some of these ridiculous characters, like Sentinel. I'm going to hold off until either a Super MvC 3 is released or some sort of GotY Edition with all of the DLC. Speaking of which, I really hate that platform, especially when each fighter's going rate is $5.

Also, thanks for addressing Anonymous at the beginning of the podcast. I definitely don't intend to ban said user, but I will be tempted to out them if the trolling continues.
