Episode 120: Mega Man Legends

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross respectfully disagree about Mega Man Legends.

It's the first fully 3D Mega Man game, but it doesn't take a lot of cues from the series that preceded it. You spend most of your time dungeon crawling, but the interesting stuff happens when you're just kickin' it in the city. It rests firmly in the "awkward teenage years" of the PSX. It's Mega Man Legends.

Episode 116: Dragon Quest Adventures: Rocket Slime

Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross gush about Dragon Quest Adventures: Rocket Slime.

This is the first Dragon Quest game we've covered, and of course it had to be a weird one. Rocket Slime trades in the turn-based combat for top-down action and surprisingly deep tank battles. A unique movement and attack mechanic, along with the oodles of puns, make Rocket Slime a must-play if you have a DS.
