Barrel Roll! Episode 7 - “Will Blaze Lasers Be Enough?”

"I say, Old Chap!"
On a very special seventh episode of “Barrel Roll! - A Video Game Podcast”, we discuss the awesomeness of “Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure”, “Bully: Scholarship Edition”, we check in on Jesse’s Wii Fit progress, and Luke finally has a TV again!
In the news we talk about all the stuff coming out of GDC that we thought was interesting. Gameboy and Gameboy Advanced games coming to DSiWare, Cross Edge coming to the states, Balance Board support of Wii “Punch-Out!” and much more.
In our regretfully named “Let’s Talk About Stuff” segment we discuss the new OnLive service, and in “Movie Time” we give our thoughts on “Resident Evil: Degeneration”, and share the thoughts of those of you that wrote in.
Intro music by Mainfinger.

MechaJesus says:I’ll just be using the classic controls. A nostalgic control scheme for a nostalgic game.

Jonah "spambot" Gregory says:That is my plan as well. I’ll try out the other controls, but if they are as inaccurate as the Wii-boxing ones, I have no use for that.

Jesse "Main Finger" Gregory says:since the low/high is determined by button holding and dodging/blocking is on the stick, it will probably be much better controling than wii boxing. I really want to try it with balance board support

Jonah "spambot" Gregory says:Like you said in the show, it will probably make for a good workout. Now if there was a way to hang a punching bag so you’re actually hitting something.
