Not only can you turn off your console whenever you want, you can go back to the main menu and return wherever you left off...
David P
I respect collecting retro games but with the high markups I don't understand why it's still popular when everdrives and modding old consoles is a thing
Areola Connoisseur
Dustin should watch Kenny Omega vs Okada or Kenny vs Will Osprey and react to it for the channel. Also John Cena vs AJ Styles or any of the bangers DYI and The Revival had on NXT! Let’s get the wrestling train going
Alec Davis
Brad, you’re right - we need that Castlevania DS collection. All Castlevania fans would wet themselves collectively
Bailey Callis
"Muh underappriciated DS2" There's always 1 😂 It's good on its own, but it's not very good at all stacked up to any other from game in the past 15+ years.
Bailey Callis
Why can't there be 2 types of pause like Final fantasy/kingdom hearts? No pause is tacky imo. Noone cared in sekiro.
Bailey Callis
Dustin still recovering after getting bodied by giga chad Gene.
Ladder Ape
According to Wikipedia Beyond good and evil released first on PS2 a bit later elsewhere.
Omar Gonzalez
Dustin thank you for allowing us to eventually have the megaman legacy collection

You can’t pause it because any time you run into trouble and think you’ll lose your runes in combat you can just pause it and turn off the console. This would eliminate the tension of travelling check point to check point, which is a pretty key part to the whole fromsoft design philosophy.
Kyle Phegley
It'll always be Artist in the Ambulance for me. I have a tattoo of an origami tiger which was inspired by the song Paper Tigers from that album... Can't go wrong with any Thrice record though.

They have been annual for every system. Xbox might have missed a year or two in between the Raws if I remember right, but for PS and Nintendo they have always been annual going back to the 90s (with that one 2K exception)
Greg McDonald
Hate being an ACTUALLY guy but I think the wrestling games have been annual since the N64 days. They only took an extra break a few years ago because the game was so broken lol. WCW NWO Revenge will always be my goat, runs smoother than No Mercy with way better music
MrFreundly
Love seeing crossovers happen between creators I have a lot of respect for.
Josh Lucas
Dustin! Don’t play the Mega Man X collection on PlayStation 4/5 lol. The input lag is horrible, there are YouTube videos that break it down. Any of the other methods you mentioned will be better to play it with. Very cool seeing Spawn Wave on here!
The Rose Experience
Beyond Good and Evil is an excellent game. It has all the markings of legendary games in the genre during that time, better than most as well. The charm, the score, Jade is a strong character, the camera aspect was original for the time as well. Many critical darlings fall through the cracks, popularity isn’t a referendum on quality. Famously the best Zelda game ever made, Okami, was a near consensus GOTY and barely sold as well. :) It’s weird to hear the downtrodding of it here. Saying that, the time for a sequel has passed, but acting like it’s a mystery as to why people are interested in more of it is puzzling.
Michael Mashpotato
Curse you Jon for killing Igon lol
Diego Macias
Even though I don't watch his content as much as I used to, I was very surprised to hear SpawnWave on Summon Sign. I feel this was a big get. Great episode all around.
Michael Mashpotato
Wrestling games used to be goated. We used to play triple threat matches in WCW revenge. Those matches would last like an hour lol. Times were wild when 3 kids were huddled in front of a 20 inch CRT to play games. I’m glad I got to live through those times.
NeO JD
Dude I thought that was your write in and Brad had skipped on the name a bit! 😅
Tanner Denso
I love Spawn Wave! Glad to have him on here. Brad. I have been trying to find a good CRT for months now in the South Orange County area. I don’t have a ton of space so I’ve been specifically been trying to find a 9-13 inch screen. I’ve had a few that I’ve seen but people are asking crazy ass prices for these things. Like a 9 inch Zenith for $140. GTFO of here with that. So I wish you the best of luck on your search. Facebook marketplace seems to have the most but I’ve also seen a couple good ones on offer up.
SweetBabyRay
I really enjoyed Spawnwave being on with you too. I feel like he has better chemistry with you all than others he podcasts with. I hope you’ll have him on again soon!
Anthony A.
Spawn Wave is awesome. However, Matty would’ve been a great addition to this episode for the retro gaming portion.
Lunar Tear
Great episode, and chemistry between you three.
Colin Moriarty
I am here, once again, to tell you that Dark Souls 2 is much better than you give it credit for.
Matthew Cooper
Spawn Wave!!! Awesome...
Your Boi Nicky V
I don't like the fact there's another Nick V with pervy write ins
Haru Discourse
Dude same, this is such an awesome surprise collab.
Travis Martin
Spawn wave, love to see it
Zac
I disagree with adding a pause button because it's part of the games difficulty. You can't stop and swap armors or weapons or select use items in your inventory. You can do it if you're fast enough in the menus, but again that's part of the difficulty. You can't stop the game to take a break and let your adrenaline levels go down. That's part of the game. That's part of the challenge. In addition, I think that framing having a child as a "situational disability" is so disingenuous. Having a child isn't a disability. You simply have more important priorities than a video game. And that's fine. That doesn't mean a game designer needs to tailor their game to you.

Beggars is a great choice for best Thrice album. I am partial to Vheissu personally but Beggars is probably objectively better.
Justspartan
Real recognize real
Grimm Carousel
Great show. Keep having or at least try to get guests on outside of the LSM crew.
Otacon_Ocelot
Im always listening to Jon at work on my break everyday no matter if I know all that happened lol
Dustin Furman

Will Hahn

Michael Mashpotato
🙌🙌 Jon is why I even listen to podcasts. Dude is huge inspiration for me. Shout outs to LSM for making this happen
MayorGarbageMan
