8 guys with 8 very different opinions team up to discuss games in a specific topic - what are the top three games featuring a character with a moustache? What RPGs did we play last month? We also pick one game each month to take a closer look and explore from beginning to end! Come for the bizarre intro theme, stay for the trivia.

Halloween is just around the corner and The Beat of the Month crew are still celebrating October with an episode all about the scariest moments in gaming! We cover the classics like dogs crashing through windows in Resident Evil and monsters jumping out at you while wandering around Silent Hill. We talk about some older games like when we pissed our pants as kids playing Splatterhouse. We also take some liberties with the topic and talk about games that are just plain scary. We also have some...interesting...trivia to round things out. So once again - turn the lights down low and join us for a scary trip down memory lane with some of our favorite scary game moments!

47: IGN's Best Game Ever: A Retrospective

Back in September, IGN hosted a bracket to determine the best game ever made. Some complete omissions, early eliminations, and the final result all had some controversy. So, the Beat of the Month crew decided to look at the entire bracket - match up by match up - and share our thoughts. Batman: Arkham City vs. Super Mario 64? Rise of the Tomb Raider vs. Half-Life 2? Burnout 3: Takedown vs. Chrono Trigger - easy decisions, right? Maybe not...

We also discuss how the IGN list was chosen and what considerations should be made when deciding a 'best' games list. We close out with discussion on what games were omitted that we feel should have been included. It was a lot of fun to cover a huge list of great game matchups, so please join us!

We continue our coverage of Zombie games with a look at our top 3 zombie games of all time! Of course some Resident Evil games are bound to make the list, but which ones may surprise you...or maybe they won't (spoiler: Resident Evil 2 and 4 are really good). We cover the heavy hitters as well as some lesser known Zombie games. As usual we cap things off with Zombie trivia. How many weapons from Zombies Ate My Neighbors can you remember? More than us? Take a listen and find out!

This week the Beat of the Month crew jump into uncharted territory with a look at Real Time Strategy games! Most of us haven't played a whole lot of games in the genre, but we took a dive into a few games such as Halo Wars, Ogre Battle 64, and more! We also talk a bit about some new games outside the genre such as Little Nightmares 2 and Metroid Dread. Our actions per minute may be limited, but the laughs per minute are as plentiful as ever! OK maybe that was a bit cheesy. Also, if you were curious on the current state of Long John Silvers, we've got you covered - enjoy!

5.0

The Beat of the Month crew continue to celebrate October by taking a spin through a recent horror game phenomenon - Dead By Daylight. Maybe not so much a deep dive as a shallow wading, but we took a few 'stabs' at this online multiplayer horror game to see why it has garnered so much attention. Do we fully understand all the ins and outs this game had to offer? Hmmm....not really. But we played enough to share our initial impressions. We also include some 'live' audio clips of us in the middle of a few matches. Whether you are a seasoned killer or just trying to survive to see the light of day, there's something here for everyone to enjoy - including as always some 'Dead' trivia. So find a dark corner, put your headphones on, and join us!

October is here and the Beat of the Month crew is celebrating by playing some Zombie games! We look at some classic remakes with Resident Evil 1 and 3, zombie mode in Call of Duty, a more story based zombie game with Telltale Game's Walking Dead - and more! We also touch on some newer games like Resident Evil 8 and (while not a zombie game) the brand new Deathloop. As usual the crew has a large variety of games to talk about, so even if scary games aren't your thing we've got you covered. So sit back, protect your brain, and join us!

Stephen King once wrote that nightmares exist outside of logic and there's little fun to be had in explanations. Well, the Beat of the Month crew are going to do their best to explain Alan Wake, the self proclaimed Psychological Action Thriller. Will we unravel this game's secrets and get to the bottom of its cryptic plot? Well there will be spoilers for sure, but we aren't sure that we have all the answers. Not only do we shine a light on the game's plot, but we share our views on the general gameplay and wrap things up with some trivia as usual. So please - join us as we take a trip back to Bright Falls in this remastered journey!
