Barrel Roll! #117 - “Batman Jones”
On a very special one-hundred and seventeenth episode of the Barrel Roll Podshow, we are joined by not one, not three, but two Adams. Tomfoolery results.
In our standard issue “Games We’ve Played This Week” section of the show, Jonah, Jesse, and the Adams discuss a bunch of old crap that only the retro crowd probably cares about. This includes Super Mario World, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Mega Man Legends 2, X-Com, Yar’s Revenge, and the Metroid Prime Trilogy. There are also a few newer games discussed, like Inside A Star-Filled Sky and SpaceChem. Also, Jonah’s guilt drove him to purchase and play The Witcher. Also, not a new game.
In the news, we discuss our thoughts on Gotham City Imposters, and our hopes that it is a fun video game. There is also more Monster Hunter and Minecraft talk. I mean, this is Barrel Roll afterall!

Why Mega Man Legends 3 Needs To Be Made (and why it should be for Wii)

"Watch me outrun this van!"
Every gamer seems to be familiar with Mega Man, especially since the original series was finally rekindled with the release of Mega Man 9. Fewer, however, are familiar with his transition into the third dimension, and even out of those who did play one, or both, of the games contained in the Legends series (known as Rock Man Dash in Japan), only a portion of them responded to the game positively, while the rest weren’t able to accept such a complete and total change to the established Mega Man formula.
Needless to say, the fan-base for these 2 gems is unfortunately small in comparison to all the other games featuring the beloved “Blue Bomber”. But most of those who do appreciate it do so to a very high degree; begging for a third entry. So what is the deal with Mega Man Legends, and why should you care?
