Get ready for something a little different this week. The boys are joined by friend Doominal Crossing to discuss the latest news and issues that have been going around the last week, with everything leading back to the Metroid community and its response. We take a look at Fortnite, MP Trilogy, and the harassment backlash and ask some though questions. Has this community forgotten how to hope? Are fans justifiably worried about Metroid's image? And are we as a fanbase afraid that Metroid might achieve too much success?
Come take a listen as we talk the good and the bad of all the latest happenings in the community!

It's PART 2 of our Discord AMA, and once again, you guys delivered some super interesting questions for the fellas to mull over. Does Sylux have enough credibility to take on Samus in Prime 4? What are our favorite Metroid songs in the series? What are our favorite Metroid ROM hacks? Why are people so obsessed with the story of Metroid 5? And could Sylux... be Samus's... brother?!
All this, and so much more! Thank you to everyone who asked us a question, and make sure you're a member of our Discord Server as we'll do another AMA again soon!

We asked you guys to join our Discord and feed us Metroid questions and, boy, did you guys rise to the challenge - so much so that this is only part of our Discord AMA! Listen to our rapid fire answers to such great questions as: What if Metroid Prime 4 fails? If Other M was non-canon, how would we tell Adam's backstory? Would Super Metroid look better in Zero Mission's art style? How did Dak and Andy meet? And maybe most importantly, would we consider Donkey Kong 64 a Metroidvania game?
All this, plus some Halo, Castlevania, and Smash chatter ! Come check it out!

Welcome to the second installment of Definitive Ranking, the series where we take ten categories that really make a Metroid game and rank them 1-5. Up this time? Metroid Fusion! While the first time round with Prime 2: Echoes, the guys had pretty similar perspectives, they couldn't be more opposite in Fusion!
Come listen and see where you fall, and get ready for next week as we're hosting our first ever Omega Metroid Discord AMA!
Just as a refresher, the categories we're ranking each game in are:
- World / Atmosphere (the vibe, the setting, the mood)
- Art Style (design of Samus, the enemies, the graphics in general)
- Story (what works, what doesn't)
- Pacing / Progression (are there any parts that really bog the player down, or is it still fun getting lost?)
- Gameplay / "Gimmick" (what new or different gameplay aspects we like)
- Items / Abilities (how are the powerups and are they cool and practical)
- Areas (how does each individual area look, feel, play, etc.)
- Enemies / Bosses (are they fun, creative, etc.)
- Expansions / Powerups (are the expansions hidden throughout the world fun, creative, and enjoyable to collect?)
- Music (are we humming along?)
Of course, all of these are subjective, and we're putting our critics hats on, but we want to hear what you have to say on Twitter!

It's time for another installment of Inspired By Metroid! This time stepping up to the plate: 2009's Shadow Complex from Epic Games. Is this a Metroidvania worth playing? Weeell... at the very least, we have some great discussion about what we liked and (really) didn't like.
But that's not all! There's tons of other talk on this episode, from discussion on our first in depth look at Axiom Verge 2 to our thoughts on the latest batch of supposed Metroid leak rumors.
... AND DID WE MENTION WE STARTED OUR OWN DISCORD?? We'd love for you to come on by and chat about this week's episode with us!

We've got a super special episode for you today as we sit down and chat with two members - Troid92 and Metroid Zapper - of the developmental team behind the absolutely awesome Prime 2D, a 2D fan game demo of (you guessed it) [REDACTED] Prime which recently just released a demo. The demo absolutely rocks, and we got to chat about the journey of the project, all the original work and sprites created, how one of the best boss battles in ANY 2D game came together, and so much more!
You won't wanna miss this one, and if you haven't already, check out the demo for Prime 2D here!

Buckle in, because we've got a doozy today. We go back and create a timeline of the most mysterious game in the Metroid universe: Metroid Dread, the game that never was. We go over every interview, every mention, all the rumors, all the whispers over the years to bring you the most comprehensive timeline of the rumored Metroid Fusion sequel. We also throw in our own theories as to what we think really happened over the years.
You won't wanna miss this one, and while you're here, check out this awesome playlist from ReduxSound featuring some custom made Metroid Dread music!

Our Other M journey comes to an end (at least for now) as we deliver another action packed episode critiquing, complementing, and considering what could have been in the video game that was Metroid Other M. Hear our thoughts on the sideways Wiimote control schemes, the FPS aspects, how auto aiming and dodging make the game a breeze, what power ups worked incredibly well, our two cents on the music, what boss battles rocked, and so much more!
Come listen to us put a bow on Other M, and let us know what you think of our suggestions to improve the final product we got!
