VGS Show 509 - Pick Up the Phone, Bob!!! (6.28.16)

Yes, the wait is finally over and the crew of VGS Overclocked is back.  Normally I would write about what was discussed, but there is so much free flow to this episode, it is hard to point out specifics.  Well, we do get an update from Josh on Phoenix Comic Con, Rich rants about Mighty No. 9, Addy wants to tend bar everywhere, Keith is employee of the month, we hold the first publc meeting of the VGS Corp LLC Board of Directors live on the show, and we all ponder about getting a degree in gun repair while working as...well...you need to listen for that bit.  Big thanks to the Mo Game Con (www.mogamecon.com) and The State for this episode.

Really no description needed besides the fact that Rich, Matt and Jake discuss all the news to come out of E3 2016.  Oh, and Matt & Jake forced Rich to name the episode what it is...you'll understand later. We want to hear from you!!!  What news are you most/least excited about out of E3 2106?  Email your answers to vgsmailbox@gmail.com

Matt & Rich fly solo this week on an all new VGS.  The guys discuss Microsoft supporting cross-platform play, speculate on the new version of the Xbox One, PvP being introduced into Minecraft, a Dragon Quest game that is like Minecraft coming to North America, further Nintendo complaints, the greatest game is now free on Xbox Live for Xbox One, fanboys needing to calm the heck down, and why both Matt & Rich did things they said they wouldn't do.  Oh, and of course mogamecon.com

Hey gang!  VGS returns once again with another episode.  Join Matt, Jake & a returning Rich as they discuss many things, bouncing from topic to topic without a care in the world.  Well, that was mainly due to no one having anything prepared before the record button was hit.  Nonetheless, the guys still manage to pull it together and discuss many things, including Nintendo Wii U overall review, the Nintendo NX rumors, the return of some awesome games from the past, an eBay scammer tries to pull one over on Jake, plus much more. 

Matt, Chuck and special guest host Jake Friedel go all full tilt boogie on this new episode of VGS.  Matt has himself another rant meltdown, this time directed at Activision for holding a much wanted HD remake of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare hostage behind it's new CoD: Marines in Space game, and he is well justified.  Also, the guys discuss a wide variety of topics including Wii U owners getting screwed once again, Xbox 360 production stopped, VR porn, Carmageddon remake heading for consoles, and Limited Run Games making us all want what they have to offer.  All this and more on an action packed new VGS.

While Rich is away, Matt, Chuck & special guest host Kurt Bowers take control of an all new episode of VGS.  The guys return to a former VGS tradition with an interview with J Patrick Allen, award winning author (http://www.amazon.com/Dead-West-Pale-Patrick-Allen-ebook/dp/B01DQ8IAWC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1461444080&sr=8-1&keywords=j+patrick+allen), host of Rocket Punch Radio podcast, former blue lion, gentleman and scholar.  Also on the episode Matt rants on after playing the Final Fantasy XV demo, Playstation 4.5 being a console that can be upgraded (like a PC), Dark Souls board game, an interesting hack of the 3DS, and Dead Wizards.

Wow, I have no idea where to start here.  First, our heroes discuss tons of things, including Netflix, WWE, Tortured for Tots 2 year anniversary, Tortured for Tots 2, and so, so much more.  Also, a very special member of the VGS crew returns.  You'll have to listen to the entire episode or else you will miss something big.

The boys are back again for another week of ranting and raving on this week's VGS.  Topics discussed include Chuck's trip to Super Bitcon, the last breaths of the Sony PlayStation 2, Legend of Zelda played in 3D, Sega purchases Atlus, April Fools and the Internet, a sidebar conversation about Wrestlemania weekend, and more.  Sit back and enjoy.

Chuck, Matt & Rich are back in the shop to sling some games and drop some wisdom on this week's VGS.  In addition to responding to listener emails, we also discuss the possibility that Nintendo is stopping production of the Wii U later this year and what that means for the NX, folks upset that Quantum Break will only get to 720p, Resident Evil turning 20, Rich's new addiction with a game that involves catching them all, Matt's unhealthy obsession with hobos singing in the back of trains, and Chuck's looks of shame at his co-hosts.

Yes, as the title might make you thinks, someone slams Empire Strikes Back (hint, it was Rich).  This Overclocked, featuring Ron, Kevin, Keith, Josh & Rich, the guys cover the Sausage Party trailer, the latest Captain America: Civil War trailer, the announcement that Cannonball Run is getting remade, the price and release date of the Playstation VR, and so much more.  Please send emails (include Rich hate mail) to vgsmailbox@gmail.com.

What the...where is show 500?!?!?!?!  Don't worry, we talk about that.  We also talk about the latest Chameleon news, Matt is disgusted with Nintendo over SNES VC games only being on the "New" 3DS, The Division plagued with issues thanks to odd physics decisions, Missouri Game Convention talk, and much, much more on this week's VGS.

Okay, so we officially talk Deadpool spoilers this episode, but the good news it isn't until the very, very end and there is plenty of warning before it starts.  Anyway, the guys also talk the latest on Coleco Chameleon implosion, the Oscars, how much to lay in a bed for 70 days, Fuller House, more Ghostbusters, and so much more.  Oh, and Michael Rapaport is amazing.

After a short rest, the crew is back for another VGS.  Rich, Chuck, Matt & guest James Lee discuss the price of the HTC Vive, Legend of Zelda turning 30, Street Fighter V's lack of content, some new crowd funding game campaigns, Chuck's rage over the delay of a package, some amazing prizes being up for grabs at the Missouri Game Con, and much more.

So Hollywood done lost their minds again and the crew of VGS OVERCLOCKED (Ron, Rich, Josh, Keith, Kevin & Nick) are here to call them out on it.  Subjects covered include new TMNT 2 trailer, Ghostbusters villain toy being shown off, new developments for Guardians of the Galaxy, Ron & Keith talk Deadpool (no spoilers), Street Fighter V: The Half Game, and much, much more.
