The First One

Mike and Ting talk about why they think recording a podcast will motivate them to play new things. The idea - a book club for games. The game we'll play and discuss next time: Undertale Discuss: @lostlevelsclub /r/lostlevelsclub Show Notes: Jingle cut from Splash Down Park (Yoshi's Island Remix) by Blen Kotaku: How to Be a Video Game Snob Mike's backlog: 600+ unplayed Steam games Ting's backlog: "Recent" games with 95+ on Metacritic he hasn't finished Baldur's Gate II: Shadow of Amn The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Bioshock Super Mario Galaxy Grand Theft Auto IV Red Dead Redemption Super Mario Galaxy 2 Batman: Arkham City Millennials The former rules for picking the game: Must be available on one of the following platforms: PC PS3/PS4 Wii (inc. Virtual Console) The selection rotation is as follows: Mike Ting Community (later on.. hopefully..) Offer a choice of two, and the other picks one. No repeat picks. Alternative editions of the same game are considered the same, i.e. the original version and the GOTY version are considered the same. Can specify the edition/version to be played. Can specify certain game notes to hit, e.g. Must start from the beginning. Must play the multiplayer component, or a particular game mode. Can specify DLC content. Early access games/betas are allowed. A minimum commitment of 20 hours gameplay expected (covering four podcasts). Shorter games will cover fewer podcasts (assume five hours to a podcast).
