Resident Evil Series - Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City

Main Quest Podcast

11/28/21 • 58 min

It's the movie nobody saw! And nobody wants to see looking at the box office! The Resident Evil reboot we've been waiting for and not waiting for apparently! I've got a lot of off the cuff takes and no real notes this time around because as soon as I got back from the theater I sat down and talked about what went down. What was done poorly, and the few things they got right in respects to the lore and the games. Which actually might surprise you.

Episode 44 - Bart vs. the Space Mutants

Main Quest Podcast

10/11/21 • 80 min

The Ghoulcade continues as I discuss my time with Bart vs. the Space Mutants. The second Simpsons game of the podcast. How terrifying is this NES game? Well it's definitely a Frankenstein of some of the worst parts of late 80's game design, I'll say that much.....PREPARE YOURSELVES FOR TRUE HORROR

60 - Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins (w/ Dave Jackson from Tales From The Backlog)

Main Quest Podcast

09/19/22 • 72 min

The Game Boy is a huge success, Mario Land was selling incredibly well, Nintendo has entered the 16-bit arena and Mario has never been bigger. So why not strike while the iron is hot and shove another Mario Land title on the handheld? But this time, make it more obscure and introduce one of the most infamous franchise characters. Dave Jackson returns to the show to discuss and dismantle Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins!

Side Quest - Sweet Home

Main Quest Podcast

11/05/20 • 41 min

On this bonus Side Quest episode of the Main Quest, I'm talking about the seminal survival horror game Sweet Home. We go through the shrouded development, skim through the film adaptation, which could've possibly influenced the games development....and to seek out how this game set up Capcom to follow up with one of the most successful, longest running franchises, Resident Evil.

Episode 43 - Contra

Main Quest Podcast

09/13/21 • 48 min

On today's episode, I discuss the classically difficult "run and gun" NES classic, Contra! Does this game still live up to its reputation? Is it really that difficult? I also finally have the long overdue talk about the Konami code in an extensive CHEATS section. Up top, catching you up with games I've been playing like Death's Door, 12 Minutes, The Ascent and Boyfriend Dungeon!

Episode 50 - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II (w/ Martin of The Review Brothers)

Main Quest Podcast

12/13/21 • 84 min

On today's episode, Martin Long from the Review Brothers and Two Guys One Game drops in to talk about the arcade classic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II! We talk about his experience growing up with video games, and gush over how good the actual arcade game is in comparison to what we played for the show...with that said, they're obviously two different experiences....but does this arcade port hold up!?

Episode 47 - Vegas Dream

Main Quest Podcast

11/01/21 • 49 min

Hopes and expectations are shattered on today's episode as I played through Vegas Dream. The game that sounds like a dial up modem before dial up modems! And in the last half of the show I wonder why shorter games aren't as valuable as 40-80 hours epics.

2nd Annual Game of The Year 2021 Edition

Main Quest Podcast

12/27/21 • 193 min

It's that special time of year, where I get to look back and reminisce about all the games I played this year. This time, I'm not only going to talk about my top 10 favorites, but I've also added some categories that will allow me to talk about a few titles that I otherwise wouldn't get to speak on! And what makes this year's celebration even more special, is that I have a whole bunch of the best gaming content creators on the planet to wind down this year in gaming, as they look back on what makes or breaks each of the categories, and even pick their games of the year!

There's a lot to take in, and a lot of games to talk about! Thank you to everyone who contributed to this MASSIVE year end episode, and of course thank you for listening! Happy New Year, see ya in February!

Episode 44 - Super C

Main Quest Podcast

10/04/21 • 47 min

It's back once again! The Ghoulcade is sweeping over the show for next month and the first game being covered is Super C! It's the sequel the Konami's iconic alien slaying shoot-em-up but how does it measure up to a classic? Is it just as difficult? And did this game cause a body oil shortage?
