Get Back To 8-bit // 1400-1500 11.03.10

news quim: you gotta shoot 'em in the head.

Somewhat delayed, but never lacking in good humour, here are the newslinks for Get Back To 8-bit from the 11th March episode.

I mean this in a completely non-ironic way. Bravo, you complete and utter fucking nerds:

From what animal did the radioactive tongue come that gave this girl her incredible power?

If I 'released my spirit' into a glass and sold it online, how much would I make?

I should get a prize for consistently finding the only non-racist stories in the Daily Mail of the day:

if you didn't like fallout 3, you're dead to me.

Submitted for your approval. The dedication of the blind to video games makes us all look bad. The German girl with the tongue of a 15 year old sweaty dork. Why there is no escape in the afterlife from the grim spectre of capitalism. And the perkilations on the M8 are nearly complete! That's all the info I'll be spilling for now, so you'll need to tune into Get Back To 8-bit on Thursday the 11th @ 14:00 to find out what's up. Be prepared for an audio assault of choice video game themes, a topic not heard since last year. ENJOY, AS ITS LIKE WILL NEVER BE HEARD ELSEWHERE!

put down your sad fake guitar and go old school.

Because one wasn't enough, this week's Get Back To 8-bit returns to the well and devotes an hour of precious airtime to some of the most classic, greatest contemporary and some of my favourite video game themes. Expect those you know and those you don't yet, with a hefty lump of chat-based Materia (Maybe if I get enough Summon Materia I can secure a co-host) of only the finest quality. It's Thursday the 11th March @ 14:00. Insert coin to play!
