MMC E18 – Borderlands Babblin’

by Leave a Comment

mmc2Jeremy had a listener request to actually play a game today while talking about it. This was a failed science experiment but sure sounded fun none the less! Reliving his glory days as a Mechromancer, your host goes back to Pandora for some general funsies as this is one of the three games he refers to as ‘Golf Outings’ for him. Games with loot seem to drive Jeremy back to video games when he feels the need to collect things randomly. The best part of Borderlands 2 is the loot has no end. Listen along as guns blaze and the best robot ever destroys its foes – There’s also some e-mails, one from legendary British automotive photographer Chris Frosin is in the hopper, as well. A lot of you like the Catman episodes as it turns out and want to know more of Eorzea and Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, which is pretty cool. If you have a question or your own little memory you can mail the show via mmc@ninjapancake.com. Jeremy can also be lost and sometimes found on Twitter @Rempancy.

WARLOCK SCHOOL E49.5 – The C Word

by Leave a Comment

schoolbannerRemy channels his inner Jeremy and interviews a community member named Izdine who was kind of pissed at us or so we thought. We had a conversation regarding some of the good things he sees in Destiny. Remy asked some questions regarding the negative aspects as well and even Izdine had to agree on some of these. The best part of this interview is that Izdine was a fan of ODST, arguably the best Bungie game to date. Don’t say we don’t enjoy the community or its members, sometimes we just get super bored. Speaking of boredom: We’re on Twitter @WarlockSchool and you can e-mail us through school@ninjapancake.com

MMC E17 – The C Word

by Leave a Comment

mmc2It’s the busy season at Jeremy’s day gig – He’s sorry he hasn’t been around much. Today with a cup of coffee he’s back at it with his recent science experiment performed on a special episode of Warlock School. They’re calling it The C Word. This is the MMC/School crossover edition. With that said he explains what the show was attempting to do and how seeing Destiny through the eyes of someone different helped your host realize why so many people still actively enjoy it. Jeremy also gets an e-mail that makes him discuss communities in gaming and what he thinks of them. If you have an e-mail like Bryce did, send it on over to mmc@ninjapancake.com. If you prefer his Twitter antics – he can often times be lost and sometimes found @Rempancy.

MMC E16 – My Evening Beverage

by Leave a Comment

mmc2In one sleepily recorded take, Jeremy reflects after a long car ride to NYC. It’s not MMC today but MMB – My Evening Beverage. As part of his ritual, your host goes over some memories of games of yore. Today’s discussion is about Star Wars games in general as he’s getting amped up for Star Wars: Battlefront. What about previous games? What about the SNES offerings that had their wacky level structures. What about his brother defeating him consistently in Jedi Knight? A trip down the video game memory lane of Star Wars, tonight on MMB! We mean – MMC! If you have a question for Jeremy or a game suggestion, send a mail to mmc@ninjapancake.com. If you’re more the character limitation kind, he can often be lost and sometimes found on Twitter @Rempancy.

MMC E15 – J.I.P. 1

by Leave a Comment

mmc2We’re all a work in progress, Jeremy is no different. Today is a day of reflections as your host goes over The Carrot on a Stick philosophy he had mentioned on a previous episode of Warlock School. This carrot can also be found in tandem with his own habit of smoking cigarettes for years. Day rough? Have a smoke. Bad meeting? Time for a smoke. Went through an eight hour raid? You got some loot. There are many parallels that your gaming life and your everyday life happen to share, you just need to take a minute and look at these things closely. Jeremy also comes to terms with the fact that it is time to quit. Smoking, that is, not gaming. He also goes over some e-mails, some Destiny related, some smoking related. Have your own carrot on a stick that you realize is driving you? Send a mail to mmc@ninjapancake.com and let Jeremy know. If you’re more the tweeting kind, your host can be often lost and sometimes found on Twitter @Rempancy.

MMC E14 – Jeremy Wants a Remake

by Leave a Comment

mmc2There’s a lot that goes on here at MMC – Some of it is poignant, some is meaningful, sometimes its just plain chocked full of memories. Today is no different. With a recent announcement about the Final Fantasy VII remake, Jeremy goes back and looks at the other Final Fantasy remakes. He tends to focus on the iOS versions of FFIV and FFVI, while he’s doing this he realizes something important. Final Fantasy VI really needs the remake treatment, with it’s incredible multi-faceted story and cast of character, it obviously is the best offering to date in the series. Remember the Veldt? Remember that first time you got to fly Setzer’s Airship? That moment when you started to piece together who Shadow actually was? That is the kind of story that needs modern graphics. What was your favorite entry in the FF series? Let Jeremy know. Write into mmc@ninjapancake.com, he can also be lost and sometimes found on Twitter @Rempancy.

MMC E13 – Jeremy Mashes Buttons

by Leave a Comment

mmc2There’s something special about the fighting game genre. You’ll never really be able to put your finger on their glorious or sometimes rage inspiring nature. Today your host contemplates why more people didn’t just settle differences using Street Fighter II or Mortal Kombat like he and his friends did when they were younger. Jeremy later goes off on a tangent about how Clayfighter fooled children’s parents who thought these games were far too violent for their child to play. Remember Clayfighter? Your host does as well. Why make a death threat to someone when you can always just do a fatality on them? As the conversation continues, Jeremy makes a realization that he really misses the Soul Calibur games. All of this and more on MMC. If you’d like to have your question read on the show, e-mail Jeremy at mmc@ninjapancake.com. If you like tweeting he can be lost and sometimes found on Twitter @Rempancy.
