The ESCape website

The ESCape is back... and with another live show. It started last week, it continues this week. The guys take a look at the Nintendo VS Sega war that took place from the late 80s to the early 90's. We take a look at both sides, the inception of Sonic, the "Blast Processing" scandal, how Nintendo could have been Playstation, why TG16 never took off in the USA, and we'll discuss the only system to have games that cost $200 a pop.

The ESCape is back with an all new show... and were going back... way back to the days of the Atari, 8 bit Nintendo, Master System, well you get the idea...

- Looking to pick up an Atari to add to your collection? The ESCape offers their recommendations as a buyers guide.

- The Retro Review is back with a double header. Due to the technical problems of last week, we are reviewing last weeks Listeners Choice selection of Mike Tyson's Punchout!! - this week we have a 3 way tie between Contra, Jackal, and Bubble Bobble. How will the guys decide the winner?

Thats right, The ESCape is back with an all new episode. This week, Al and Mike fly as a duo, as Steve is out sick... or is he just avoiding any episode number with a 9 in it?

- This week we will be discussing the long-awaited PSP sequel Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, the latest to hit the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII series. Keeping on topic with Final Fantasy, we take a look at the original 2001 theatrical release Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within movie, and find out why this once potential box office smash turned to being an official box office dud.

Coming back from the insanity that was Episode 17, the ESCape is back, and with another LIVE show!

- The guys discuss the "sequel" to the once great racing series that was Cruis'N USA - our game for this week is simply "Cruis'n" for the Wii. The game has been highly criticized for its "N64 like graphics" and "clunky menu's" but should you believe every review you read on popular gaming sites?

Episode 17 - Good Times!
- ... And no, were not talking about the 70's sitcom. But it is WTF Wednesday, and that means anything goes. It was a great night of comedy and entertainment, well until Harmack and Mhykol from the OC decided to join us. We celebrated Steve's birthday amidst the chaos, including a fan submitted "Birthday Present"...

- You've heard us discuss the show (as we will again do this week) but now we review the game - Lost: Via Domus for the XBOX 360, PS3 and the PC.

We've battled the worst blizzard in years, been snowed in for 2 days, nearly broken our backs shoveling 2 feet of snow and yes... The ESCape is back with an all new Episode!

- Fresh off the shelves on release day, the guys review Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Wii. Many websites have already said this could be game of the year, but what did the guys think?

- Mike and Steve fight it out in The ESCape's first ever "Movie Trivia Battle". They both claim they know movies best, but who took home the "Chicken Wing Gold"?

The ESCape is back and our show title can't even explain the mayhem that happens on this show. Get ready for the episode some have called "The Best ESCape Yet"...

- The guys review Lost Odyssey for the XBOX 360, by Mistwalker Studios. See why Steve's been "lost" on RPG's since Final Fantasy VI.

- The guys also address previous comments from fellow Uberguilds Radio Show, The OC. Even DJ Harmack thought this retaliation was funny... literally. Jak comments back in his 2 Cents on The OC's assumptions of Jak being a "robot".

- The guys review all the major announcements made last week at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. Al attempts to educate Steve and Mike on why Final Fantasy X-2 is not the sequel to Final Fantasy VI.

- Steve and Mike discuss two classic movies, Caddyshack and Tombstone. Also, Steve introduces his first ever "Restaurant Review", when he and Mike visit a local English Pub.

- Fighting February comes to a close with a "Killer Combo". Thats right Street Fighter 2 and Killer Instinct are up in this weeks Retro Review. You'll pull an "Ultra" when you hear this review.

- The guys will review the brand new release Devil May Cry 4, for the PS3 and the XBOX 360. The graphics are so good, Steve DID Cry. Well, kinda.

- Steve and Mike are making up for lost time with not 1, but 2 movies in the Weekly Movie Review. On tap this week is The Kingdom and 3:10 to Yuma. Also the guys catch up on Lost, and is Steve done watching the Terminator show?
