No I haven't. Yeah it sort of sounds like the equivalent of Alan Wake's American Nightmare.
If we do the show I might give it a whirl.

Yep, they're on the list and so far me, Sean and Josh have each completed both games.
And I am about 2/3's of the way through the first game.

I loved both the games but I definitely wouldn't recommend playing them both back to back as they're literally the same game.

Have you any plans for a show on the oft-referenced ninja gaiden series, with particular reference to ninja gaiden black being the best of them?

It's a funny one. In Darren F we have one of the best and most qualified Ninja Gaiden players in the world on the team. The rest of us, not so much! There's also the discussion whether we should go back and play the 8-bit originals too. Rest assured all things NG remain under consideration.

Gah, I get really annoyed when people use the word literally as a substitute for 'almost' and then went and did it myself.

>_<

Good call. Haha.

I would like to second 999: 9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors...

Infact, I'm willing to buy an extra copy and post my own to you guys if it will help get it done.

That's very kind link, but scheduling decisions are seldom based on us owning or not owning the game. It comes down to myriad other considerations as you can imagine.

Thought you might say that. We'll look into the possibility. Might be one for Darren G to host.

I'd love to hear a Project Gotham Racing or a Bizarre Creations retrospective podcast discussing the various BC driving/racing games and also including 'Fur Fighters', 'The Club' and "Blood Stone'.

Good work!

I still own Formula One and F1 '97 for the PlayStation 8-) These were my first experiences of the brilliance of Bizarre Creations.

Some huge fans of Bizarre Creations on the team and I'll continue to keep beating the drum for getting a racing game on the show.
I do think The Club would make a good show, whilst it's no classic it was, for me, unfairly criticised quite widely in the media because a lot of the things it did were actually very good.

The MSR/PGR series has been mooted (along with various other racing franchises: Ridge Racer, OutRun, Burnout, Forza...) but there's not yet been the enthusiasm from enough of the team to make a show. I've played all of the MSR/PGR games, as well as their PSone F1 games, but I've never finished any of them.

As regards to other Bizarre games, it would certainly be interesting but again, hard to persuade enough people that they want to go back and play the likes of Fur Fighters, The Club and Blood Stone if they haven't already.

Realistically, the most likely Bizarre related show would almost certainly be about Stephen Cakebread's fantastic Geometry Wars series 8-)

Consider it all considered however. Thanks, Travis.
