Barrel Roll #141 - “Draculelf”
Adam Anania returns for our one-hundred and skyrims-skytacular. Skyrim.
Sorry, I was distracted there for a second.
On our one-hundred and forty-first episode of Barrel Roll, we are joined by Adam Anania who has not been playing Skyrim, but has actually been playing Kirby’s Return to Dreamland and Star Fox 64 3D. Jesse has been playing some Otomedius Excellent, which he swears was borrowed from a friend, and we aren’t really sure if that makes it any better. Jonah and Jesse have played Sonic Generations and give their impressions on that, and Jonah has been playing some of The Old Republic beta (don’t worry, he only talks about stuff that is already public knowledge) and, you might have guessed, Skyrim. He seems to be enjoying it.
We also cover the new games dropping this week and the news, all on this, a very beefy and Draculelf filled episode of the show.

Barrel Roll! #140 - “Smooth Jams”
On a very smooth one-hundred and fortieth Barrel Roll, Jonah and Jesse are once again joined by Wesley for one fine episode. Jesse and Jonah have both entered into free time killing hobbies, what with all the remix contests and novel writing. Wes has been busy too, we assume.
In our games played section, we discuss the return of our heroes from gaming’s past with Kirby’s Return to Dreamland and Sonic Generations. Wes has sold his soul to Uncharted 3 and Jonah actually played a game this time for reals you guys. He grabbed the current Humble Bundle, The Humble Voxatron Debut. From that he has been playing the Voxatron alpha and also the disturbing but addictive The Binding of Isaac.
There might not be a ton of news this week, but the guys do get into a discussion of Resident Evil Chronicles HD having played both Umbrella Chronicles & Darkside Chronicles on the Wii. All this, plus a discussion on the new games dropping this week on Barrel Roll #140, “Smooth Jams”.

Barrel Roll! #139 - “Which One Do I Shoot?”
It’s a triumphant return to form when Jesse, Wes, Adam and Jonah get together once again to talk about video game related topics.
Adam Milecki (aka Adam 2) has been playing an awful lot of Dark Souls and gives us the rundown. He and Jonah discuss the nitty gritty of it versus its predecessor, Demon’s Souls, at least to the extent that someone (Jonah) can, having tried to play it while watching a nine-month-old. As it turns out, that is not as much as he would like. Not having had much time to play anything, Jonah did at least get to start a Titan’s Quest campaign with some friends, and managed to rustle up a four person team of gladiatorial badassery. Which translates to clicking on things.
Jesse started, and completed, Batman: Arkham City between this and the last show. He goes in-depth as to how it managed to become even better than Arkham Asylum without giving away any spoilers, so calm down nerds. Speaking of spoilers, Wes finally played through Bioshock, and that we do go into spoilers on. Why? Because it came out in 2007 and you should have all played it by now.
All this plus news and new games coming out this week on Barrel Roll #139, “Which One Do I Shoot?”
