Continuing their annual tradition of doing only one podcast a year, Steve and Bryan return with a hefty, two hour-plus chunk o' audio goodness as they pick apart the highlights, the lowlights, and the side-eyes of the year that was 2013 in video gaming. Thrill to the discussion of which games had the best moments in badassery, the greatest production values, the most interesting stories, the best uses of Aerosmith! Look on in awe as the boys dare to challenge the prevailing media and community narratives surrounding The Last of Us! Cower in fear if you haven't played all the games you wanted to finish because there are a lot of spoilers in here! Will the boys agree on 2014's best game? Will there be hurt feelings? Will the term "ludonarrative dissonance" be used? You'll have to find out by downloading it here.

Just over 9 months after our last episode, the new Re-Play Radio is live! Bryan and Steve sit down to talk about the best, worst, and indifferent games of 2012 in the Third Inaugural Completely Meaningless Re-Play Radio Video Game Awards! This year's categories include Best Story, Best Badassery, an impromptu Best Twist category, Best Multiplayer, and more, as well as console and platform-specific nods for the best each of the major platforms had to offer. What game will climb, battered and triumphant, above all others to win our Game of the Year? If you have been paying any attention to us at all on Twitter it will not really be much of a surprise. Download the show here. Complete show notes are here.

Re-Play Radio returns with a whole lot of Mass Effect. First it's an update on Skylanders, Simpsons: Tapped Out, and Journey in What Else. Then we have a spoiler-heavy conversation about Mass Effect 2, after Bryan sped through the game like a champ. Finally, Steve gripes about people spoiling Mass Effect 3 in the Rant, which gives way to general paired ranting about internet entitlement. Plus, Mordin! You must listen.

Re-Play Radio speeds back with a whole lot of blue hedgehog. First it's What Else with talk of Skylanders, Gotham City Impostors, Soul Calibur V, and more. Then, it's a Sonic double-shot as we use Sonic CD to spin-dash our way into talking about Sonic Generations. Finally, Bryan gives a you what-for with a lesson in why Nintendo shouldn't pursue the iPhone market. We also talk quite a bit about the Golden Corral's "Chocolate Wonderfall." Look, it was a weird night, and you should probably just listen.

Re-Play Radio is back and better than, or at least equal to, ever! First the boys take a trip down video game lane and discuss Star Trek Online, Soul Calibur IV, Final Fantasy XIII-2, Lord of the Rings: War in the North, and Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure in What Else. Then it's an RPR first as we break down the metaphysical implications of the BioShock 2 "Minerva's Den" DLC. Then it's ranting time, as Steve tells you why your anger at online passes is misplaced. All that and too many anecdotes about Skylanders are just a download away.

It's been a long time coming, but when better to make a new start than the new year? This week on Re-Play Radio, the dynamic duo of podcasting perplexities talks about their favorite games from 2011. Ignore the technical snags that led to moments of static and get listening to find out our favorite badasses, multiplayer, platform exclusives, and more. All of it leads to an extra-long fight for the very soul of gaming -- or at least what the boys like best. All that a smack from the Dovahkiin are just a download away.

A new Re-Play Radio, you say? Surely that can't be right. That show ended when Steve became a rich humor magnate, and Bryan was eaten by that giant wildebeast. But no, it's true. Bryan escaped from the wildebeast belly and Steve lost all his money betting on underground dragon races, so the two got together again to record another podcast. So now you have to sit there and listen to it. The duo cover such thrilling topics as iPad gaming, Bulletstorm, Tiny Tower, Bastion, and Duke Nukem Forever in What Else. Then it's on to Sly Cooper, which more-or-less morphed into a larger discussion about the series, and then about furries. Finally, Steve ditches his pre-planned Rant notes to talk about happenings with the 3DS price drop. All that and ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL are just a download away.

After a few weeks off due to finals and credit card fraud (seriously), Bryan and Steve are back with a new Re-Play Radio. First it's Outland, Mortal Kombat, and Portal 2 all mixed in a lovely What Else cocktail. Then it's on to Batman: The Brave and the Bold, a colorful Batman adventure for Bat-fans of all Bat-ages. Finally, Bryan shamelessly plugs the upcoming GeekSpeak reboot in the Re-Play Rant. Plug. Thing. All that and a frank discussion of Glee plot holes are just a download away.

Bryan and Steve took a few weeks off for work and other activities, and come back refreshed to regale you with tales of Dragon Age 2, Pokemon Black and White, the Nintendo 3DS and some of its associated launch games in What Else. Then it's on to Beyond Good & Evil, where the boys discuss clever gameplay mechanics, gay hispanic A.I. programs, humanoid pigs, and Nietzsche. Finally, Steve wonders why 3D-required 3DS games are a supposed taboo in the Re-Play Rant. All that and a plenty of semi-on-, semi-off-topic discussion of Batman is just a download away.

Bryan and Steve are in rare form as they talk about video games but remain entirely uncooked on the inside. In this gripping installment, the boys talk about You Don't Know Jack, Marvel vs Capcom 3, Bulletstorm, Tactics Ogre, and iPhone games in What Else. Then it's on to Sonic Spinball, also known as the first warning sign of Sega pimping out their franchise hedgehog, when no one heeded the warnings. Finally, Bryan points out the fairly large gulf between iPhone games and the likes of DS and PSP games in the Re-Play Rant. All that and a frankly bizarre amount of conversation about Inspector Gadget is just a download away.
