Barrel Roll! #87 - “Select Wizard”
On a very special eighty-seventh episode of “Barrel Roll! A Video Game Podcast”, only one wizard will rise up to save the world from the minions of darkness washing over the land. Select carefully…
In what we’ve been playing, Jesse hit up the demos for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow and Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. He also talks the nitty gritty of advanced classes in Valkyria Chronicles II. Jonah has played a little of several games, including The Longest Journey, Duke Nukem 3D, Minecraft and the PC Classic, Master of Magic, where he was implored to “select wizard”.
Wes is back with more on Red Dead Redemption and the third episode of the Doctor Who adventure game.

linthuslyth says:Haha, that was the best robot voice I’ve heard in the show so far; if not a bit awkward since it was(sort of) me talking.

linthuslyth says:Yeah, it’s a very open-ended question can be answered in many ways. I liked how Jonah lead the discussion to different series of games, that was pretty interesting.
Hey, maybe I’ll throw in a question every month or something so you guys can play the robot voice agian.
