The Beat of the Month crew reflect on their favorite (and least favorite) boss fights of all time! There are a TON of games that we talk about including Metal Gear Solid, Shadow of the Colossus, Sonic the Hedgehog, and more! We also talk a bit about boss fights in general - how important are boss fights in a game? What are the most annoying types of bosses? What makes a good boss fight? And then as usual we round things out with some boss trivia. Do you know who the final boss was in Twisted Metal 2? Listen in to find out!

The Beat of the Crew - 8 men with more miserable secrets than we can count - team up to discuss one of the longest running series of all time, Castlevania! We start at the beginning with the original on NES from 1986 all the way through Lords of Shadow 2 released back in 2014. Some games we haven't played since they came out, but others we played just this month to get a fresh take on them. We also take a look at the Bloodstained series which is in many ways the spiritual successor to the famed vampire killing franchise. So grab your whip, smash every lamp in your house, and join us on this journey through the games of Castlevania!
