Was wondering why this was late, but better late than never! Always exciting to get a new GI show.

I bad-mouthed Brent in the past for being too boring during Replay and I'm sorry about that, but I think the game informer show is a better format for him and I'm looking forward to this episode.

I'm gonna have to complain you guys didn't do a mgs 25th segment. I mean, we got a movie, a game, I'm all cranked up on mgs fever and you bring me Madden? Come on.
I'm gonna give this a listen though.

How dare you make us wait, we demand consistency in our media. Joking of course. I didn't expect one since I thought the Army of Two podcast counted for one this week.

Now I have something to listen to while I unload truck:) Thank you:)

Anyone have a time for when the second segment starts? I just can't listen to Brent anymore.

As much as I love video game music, I haven't been big on Brent's hipster approach when talking about it (granted, his Replay appearances are all I've heard). But hopefully there's something awesome included here.

And maybe some mention of Streets of Rage 2!

Great podcast, loved the 16 bit music segment! You guys even somehow made talk of madden bearable!

Tim you are 100% correct on the amon amarth referance, that sounded so familiar to me, it sounded metal. The song is "Cry of the Black Birds" and the intro is near identical to that song LOVE IT!

What's that song at the end of the podcast?

Yes, Legacy Music Hour and Guild Wars 2, this is great! Guild Wars 2 is absolutely FANTASTIC, would love to hear your opinions on it. Oh, after listening through some, thanks for letting the middling song tracks play longer than normal. They're super groovy, I love jammin' to them.

Brent was getting a lot of crap from people on the Replays he was on, but when he's talking about old school music it was an interesting segment that he is quite knowledgeable in. Good song choices.

Don't think I'll be getting Madden 13 anytime soon, but it seems like they're taking a step in the right direction this year.

Also, I like Kim's style. She has a sense of humor that seems like it fits with the staff. I'd like to hear more from her in future podcasts.

This was a pretty good podcast I liked a lot of the music and I appreciated the info on madden 13.

Great GI Show this week! I love the Legacy Music Hour, and it was great having Brent on the show. Also nice coverage of both Madden 13 and Guild Wars 2.

Play them Japanese beats!

thats nice

Sakimoto's an amazing composer.  One of those guys that has his own style that's immediately recognizable.  Vagrant Story had a wonderful soundtrack, and his aggressive, epic style fit very well with Final Fantasy XII.  One of my favorite music men.

I see what you're saying about the players limbs looking wild in Madden 13. I haven't actually played it but I've seen trailers and their legs just flail about all over the place.

I've played gw2 for maybe 2 hours on my friends account because I was really curious about mmorpgs and the only prior experience i had with them was just about a week of playing wow. I have to say i'm amazed the game is doing so well because to me it really had nothing to offer. It made massive assumptions that I was already heavily invested in the game and was already interested in the story/world and frankly I wasn't. The combat felt very empty and unrewarding and every quest seemed less interesting than the last. The event system is a cool idea but in many of the quests I played it didn't seem like it would even be that much fun as a single player experience let alone sharing it with 50 other players. Maybe I'm too picky but for a game that takes such an investment of time and offers so much I would have expected the very basics of the game to feel great and for me it did not.
