Almost purchased Another World on Wii U. I'll put a green tick next to it!

Finish it first - you might get defeated by it (I did on Amiga)!

I tried to glance through most of the posts here so I hope I won't be repeating someone, but here are a few I would love to hear caned and/or rinsed:
Kingdom Under Fire series ( 3 Games, Xbox-360)
Legacy of Kain/Soul Reaver ( Any would do)
Total War: Shogun 2( Or Rome)

The Legacy of Kain series has been requested a few times and is on the list.

I think the Kingdom Under Fire series is more like five or so games on several different formats. It's not been put forward before and I don't know if we have any players on the team.
As for Total War, again it would definitely need a panel of three or more true enthusiasts and I'm not sure we have any on the team.

I'll put them on the spreadsheet though to ascertain if we have any internal interest, but I'd rather not cover a game or series at all than do so half-heartedly or inexpertly.

Sorry about the re-ask of Legacy of Kain.

Quite understandable on the KuF and Total War games, It's those qualities in the podcast that make it so enjoyable to listen to.

No need for apologies at all!
I've added the others to the list. It only takes a handful of our large team to be into the idea and a show can happen.

Apologies if it's been suggested already, but any chance of a Witcher 1 and 2 retrospective before 3 comes out?

They're on the list and we have a few months before W3 hits so it's not impossible.

Yay! Thanks for the reply. Would love to hear some deep discussion over these...

You'll get a fairly unprintable three word review from me for Witcher 2 if you get to it :)

I mentioned on Twitter but I would love to see an Elder Scrolls set or at least an Oblivion and Skyrim Podcast.

Some of our most-requested titles and always under consideration but we've yet to decide how to tackle these behemoths.

Hey chaps, hope some of these inspire! Sorry if they're repeated :)

1: Advance Wars series
2: X Wing / Tie Fighter
3: Lucas Adventure Games (Monkey Islands / The Dig / Full Throttle / Day of the Tentacle etc... (no idea how you'd tackle them!)
4: Flashback
5: Sensible Soccer / Sensible Software
6: Dooms & Quakes
7: Rage
8: Total Annihilation series
9: Rock 'n' Roll Racing (although I think that may be just for me!)

Cheers guys, keep up the excellent work. Always appreciated.

Like the idea of a Sensible Soccer. I was going to try play it on my PC yesterday. Loved that game.

It's pretty timeless isn't it? Still plays well on most formats and there were a tonne of versions too. SWOS was a pretty fun managerial version too.

I'm sure its been said but given the recent Mario podcasts I'd love to see Sonic the Hedgehog given the same treatment and hearing peoples thoughts on the alternate path Sonic took to Mario.

Thanks for the suggestions. OK, so these are already well established on the big list:

Advance Wars series
Doom series
Flashback
LucasArts adventure Games
Rage
Sensible Soccer and various other Sensible games
Sonic the Hedgehog series


While these have now been added to the spreadsheet to find out if we have enough interested parties among the team:
Quake series
Rock 'n' Roll Racing
Total Annihilation
X Wing/Tie Fighter series

So I never played a Yakuza game but today I finnished watching a LP of the first one and I think it the series would make for some great discussion in the podcast!

You'll be pleased to know that series has been on the big list since the start. The problem is the number of games and in many cases their lack of availability in the UK. We still live in hope that 1 & 2 HD will get a release.
