Episode 164: Revolution X - Retro Rewind Request

So this Retro Rewind comes via request and has sparked the conversation, should we stop requests?

Yes that's right, Craig and Dave use every weapon available to them to not talk about Revolution X which only has one weapon, music. We talk rail shooters, VR, pies, Merry go rounds and foam rolling.

Any thoughts on anything other than Revolution X, or what we should play next? Hit us up at on twitter or on the web at www.thebiteffect.com

Episode 163: Super Mario Odyssey - Part Two

In part two of Mario Odyssey we look at the story, our overall thoughts on Mario and of course any other only slightly related business.

That's right we look at the in depth and twisting plot of Mario Odyssey. Sitting somewhere between The Usual Suspects and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy it does take a good bit of dissecting to get there!

Any thoughts on Odyssey, 3d Mario games, or what we should play next? Hit us up at on twitter and contact us about anything, and we mean ANYTHING.

Episode 162: Super Mario Odyssey - Part One

It's been nearly 2 years since the gang visited a 3d Mario, let's see how Odyssey stacks up!

Episode 161: Cool Spot - Retro Rewind

Dave and Craig talk fizzy drinks and childhood memories in our 1993 Retro Rewind!

So another devisive game choice here, Europe vs USA as we go head to head to talk about Cool Spot and Virgin Interactive. Who doesn't love Virgin Interactive?! All of the U.S it seems! (or maybe it's just Dave?)
