http://www.defunctgames.com The latest On Running Feuds episodes from Defunct Games http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-189 On Running Feuds (Ep. 189) - In the first Feud of the year, Cyril takes on the games press that chooses to give Devil May Cry haters a platform. It's time to stop the madness and choose not to placate the vocal minority. Let those trolls bitch and moan in the corner, because the people who have actually played the game are talking now.

A great injustice was committed right where you're standing, and it looks like the perp might just get away with it. There's no sign of a break-in or struggle and you won't find a single drop of blood on the floor, but you can tell something is amiss. It's clear to the trained eye that somebody stole GungHo's newest batch of import PS1 games. I smell a conspiracy. I do believe the game is afoot. Wed, 12 Dec 2012 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-187 With the Wii on its final legs and This Week hitting its 200th episode, we thought it would be fun to look back and see how each system stacks up. To do this we counted the review scores, added up the games and figured out each system's averages. Did the Genesis finally get the drop on the Super NES? Who had the lowest scores? And what is the greatest system on the Virtual Console? We get to the bottom of all these questions in this very special episode of On Running Feuds! Fri, 03 Aug 2012 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-186 On Running Feuds (Ep. 186) - Did you know that there are people who are actually against game preservation? And not just anybody, but somebody who is the editor for a major video game magazine. It's true, and Defunct Games has the full story in this contentious On Running Feud. Is Dan Howdle Against Game Preservation? It definitely looks that way! Tue, 26 Jun 2012 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-185 Despite featuring exciting first-looks to some of their biggest titles, there was something missing from Sony's E3 2012 press conference. Instead of propping up the PS Vita, Sony opted to spend most of their time talking about already-announced games and something called Wonderbook. The terrible showing leads to one important question: Hey Sony, What Happened to the PS Vita? Tue, 05 Jun 2012 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-184 On Running Feuds (Ep. 184) - Defunct Games loves MonkeyPaw Games. I love their import releases, the Working Designs re-releases and everything else they do. Their catalog is strong enough for me to overlook a few rotten apples. But as great as they are, I have just one question: Is MonkeyPaw Games Stealing My Material? Find out now when we try MonkeyPaw Games, Defunct Games-style! Fri, 06 Apr 2012 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-183 On Running Feuds (Ep. 183) - I have officially broken up with the Virtual Console. There, I said it. I've been flirting with the idea of ending our six year affair for some time, but today is the day I break it off for good. And just as I was about to shut the door on the Virtual Console once and for all, I noticed something strange. It turns out that Nintendo hasn't stopped supporting their classic game download service. That's right, the problem isn't the service ... the problem is my location! Believe it or not, the Virtual Console is still alive and kicking in other countries. What's going on? Wed, 08 Feb 2012 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-182 On Running Feuds (Ep.182) - The reactions to the Resident Evil 6 trailer were what you would normally expect; the usual mix of wishful excitement and skepticism. Across internet forums, Twitter and Facebook, everybody seemed to agree on one important detail: This new Resident Evil game must be scary! People don't want the non-stop action and daytime battles; they're looking to Capcom to bring the scary. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Resident Evil will never be scary again. Find out why in this controversial new editorial! Tue, 31 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-181 On Running Feuds (Ep. 181) - Operation Rainfall wants you to buy Final Fantasy. But it's not because they support Square Enix. They want you to send Nintendo a message. They want you to buy Final Fantasy this Friday in support of three unreleased Wii games. Now this is a cause Defunct Games can get behind. Except there's just one problem: Final Fantasy is the wrong choice. Cyril explains why Operation Rainfall missed a huge opportunity! Mon, 15 Aug 2011 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-180 Apparently Konami doesn't want to sell any copies of Metal Gear Solid 3DS! What seemed like a good idea at first has quickly become a nightmare for the company. Join Defunct Games as we take a trip back from the inception to the current controversy. We feel that Metal Gear Solid 3D Is Doomed ... and we're sure that you'll agree! Thu, 28 Jul 2011 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-179 Things aren't looking good for the Nintendo 3DS. With much-hyped games getting delayed and canceled, somebody has to do something quick in order to keep this ship from sinking. Good news: Nintendo has a plan. Bad news: That plan involves updating Urban Champion, one of their very worst 8-bit releases. Ladies and gentlemen, Urban Champion Is the Last Straw! Wed, 20 Jul 2011 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-178 On Running Feuds (Ep. 178) - Last night The Redner Group did a bad, bad thing. They threatened game critics to either give Duke Nukem Forever a "fair" grade or be cut off from 2K Games. Naturally Cyril has a few things to say about this absurd bully tactic. Watch Defunct Games take on this PR firm in The Game Bully: Attack of The Redner Group! Wed, 15 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-177 On Running Feuds (Ep. 177) - After a year of huge disappointments, you might think that Square Enix would take a few months off. But that's not about to happen! We're three months into 2011 and witnessing the Square Enix Rehabilitation Tour. Find out what you've been missing when you read through another exciting episode of the On Running Feuds! Mon, 21 Mar 2011 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-176 On Running Feuds (Ep. 176) - After more than a decade, Capcom has finally delivered their long overdue sequel to Marvel vs. Capcom 2. The good news is that it delivers the same high energy action you expect from the series. There's just one problem: I don't feel compelled to play it. Find out why when you dig deeper into this week's On Running Feud! Wed, 23 Feb 2011 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-175 On Running Feuds (Ep. 175) - I love Super Mario Bros. I especially love old school 2D Super Mario Bros. So why am I so upset about Super Mario All-Stars: Limited Edition? Because this is the laziest anniversary collection I've seen in years. Join my outrage when we Take a Stand Against Super Mario's Anniversary! Thu, 09 Dec 2010 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-174 On Running Feuds (Ep. 174) - So you're about to release something called the Dragon's Lair Trilogy and need to pack it full of games: What three games do you decide to include? If you're Destineer you package two Dragon's Lair games with a title that has absolutely nothing to do with Dirk the Daring's quest. Find out what game you're getting when you read The Thing About Dragon's Lair Trilogy! Mon, 22 Nov 2010 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-173 On Running Feuds (Ep. 173) - We all know that the Virtual Console sucks. Nintendo has been uploading fewer and fewer releases each week, to the point where it's a genuine shock to actually see a classic game. But is Sony any better? That's the question we try to tackle today when we compare the PSone Classics store to Nintendo's Virtual Console! Wed, 01 Sep 2010 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-172 On Running Feuds (Ep. 172) - What would you say if I told you that I was going to write an article about the biggest video game flops of 2010? Fair enough, the year isn't over yet but there are certainly worse story ideas. Now what if instead of giving you real facts and numbers, I decide to just guess and go with what sounds right? Would that be okay with you? Well, it's not okay with me, and I'm doing something about it in this week's On Running Feud! Mon, 16 Aug 2010 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-171 On Running Feuds (Ep. 171) - After eight long years, yesterday Microsoft finally pulled the plug on the Xbox Live service. But don't fret, Xbox 360 owners, they only pulled the plug on the original Xbox games. To help celebrate the passing the original Xbox Live service, Defunct Games is proud to present five non-Halo games that will be missed! Fri, 16 Apr 2010 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.defunctgames.com/shows.php?id=feuds-170 On Running Feuds (Ep. 170) - I have a confession to make: I'm in love with bad art. I'm not talking about paintings of dogs playing poker or the creepy David Duchovny nude art exhibits, but rather the abysmal artwork found within the confines of classic video game magazines. I discovered I can learn a lot by studying some of these masterpieces. Join me as I look at six of the most baffling drawings as scene in the pages of Video Games & Computer Entertainment.
