"Palm trees.... and 8."

This week, Dean refuses to stop saying "Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden," Tom wants everyone to feel sad, and the guys record a 3-hour podcast after deleting the first 2 hours of aimless conversation. Calculated.

We discuss what it means to be a "retro" game, the "right" way to release content over time, and the difference between series reboots that try to "remake" their franchise versus "re-imagining" them (and which one the new Battletoads game will be).

Later, we trash Final Fantasy Adventure before ultimately admitting we both loved it, 80-page manual, spotty localization, confusing "puzzles," and all. Honestly, this might just be a pretty good off-brand Zelda game.
