Loved it guys. Thanks for covering Double Dragon Neon and Sonic 4 Episode 2. These are both series I have some buy-in for. After looking at some videos for Double Dragon Neon, I have some hesitations for the gameplay (I personally loved the second game on NES best) but I dig the soundtrack at least. For Sonic Team, it's great to hear they're taking some criticisms to heart--getting the chaos emeralds are tough as hell, I hope this is easier in the next episode. On the negative end, I also don't care much for the homing system, but I trust you're right since you got to play it on the floor. I'll definitely pick up both.

I have one suggestion, in terms of the interviews, maybe using a slight interlude or introduction to whom you're going to speak to next. I know you prefaced before you began the three interviews, but would it be valuable to include something along the lines of, "Next we'll hear from _______, representative for Sega of America"? I really dig your style of podcast, it really sounds like an NPR broadcast of "All Things Considered".

Thanks for answering my question too! I was definitely satisfied with your answers. I'm just now recently embracing the retro gamer lifestyle, so I'm not quite ready for the next generation. Great job!

Appreciate the feedback Blu, glad we have another new listener.

Also, it's extremely cool you guys are available on iTunes. Usually it's my girlfriend who has all the podcasts, I'm glad I finally have one worth subscribing too!

I can't believe there aren't any contest entries here yet for the DMC HD Collection/Dragon's Dogma posters...
