We're kicking it old school this week with a classic Dak & Andy joint, answering all of YOUR fan questions! Some of the topics on tap: If Hunters were to ever to be remade, aside from controls, what improvements could be made? If Dread was priced lower, would it have sold more copies? Would it veer make sense to rebrand the series as the 'Samus Aran' series to get more exposure? How could the Space Jump boots be improved in a Metroid Prime game?

Inspired By Metroid returns, and just in time to tackle of the most hyped Metroidvania's in years: Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown!

2024/04/09

We originally had an Inspired By Metroid game on tap for this week, but we ran into some scheduling issues, so instead of rushing it, we're pushing our show back one week and instead unlocking another ROM Hack Review from the vault! One of the most widely fantasized crossovers in the video game world would be the merging of the Metroid and DOOM universes, so this month for ROM Hack Reviews, Andy plays the crossover game DOOMtroid! And of course, we couldn’t talk about Metroid and DOOM without our

Our Super Metroid celebration comes to a conclusion this week as we wrap it up in style by bringing back Mapping Metroid! On the docket this month is the fiery, sweltering, and frankly awesome area of Norfair! We go over everything that makes this so special, including the amazing boss fights, the instantly iconic musical tracks, the structure and divide of the less-intense upper Norfair versus the dangerous lower half, and the great expansions and sequence breaks throughout!

Omega Metroid Podcast ·

2024/03/05

We're back to continue our journey throughout the series that inspired Metroid, and this time around, we're even more firmly in spinoff territory than we were back in AVP! The sequel to the crossover, Alien vs Predator: Requiem promises more gore, more kills, and more craziness, but at the end of the day, it is a good movie? A hybrid of the two titular races called the Predalien is certainly wrecking havoc, but is it enough to overcome a lot of the technical issues and character problems this movie

Come and listen as we give this game its flowers, talking about our first memories of playing it, why it wasn't a bigger deal at the time, and the unforgettable stealth sequence.

We're back this week to talk - what else? - Metroid Prime 4! As we've done before, we're going over a bunch of things we want to see in the game! Were working off of a wishlist that Doom put together that covers things like: could wall running be neat, or is that hokey? How foes one make a Speed Booster work in 3D? Should the Speed Booster be third person, first person, or a mix of both? Could the Grapple Beam have a Gravity feature added to pull heavier objects? Could an escape sequence in Samus's

We’re playing the amazing, puzzling, innovative, and gruelling ROM: Super Metroid Ascent! Made by Benox50, this hack is the biggest, longest, and most intense challenge of any ROM Hack yet!

What's our alternate ideas for how Adams AI could have developed consciousness? Could the intro on SR388 become a playable prologue? If we could change one thing about Fusions
