Even though I’m a couple weeks late due to poor living conditions and yes, pure laziness, Happy 5th Anniversary to DGR! Here’s to 5 more years if your livers last that long. Moe is out this week so friend of the show RykerXL fills in quite seamlessly. A shorter than usual show kicks off as always with Drunk Dials and the mailbag. John and Hilden take the time to remind listeners about the Deathsmiles contest they have going on that they have received no entries for so far. A short games segment this week features City Builder for the...

This week’s DGR starts off with an anecdote from Hilden on the perils that fireworks impose on your wallet. The show then moves into the normal opening of Drunk Dials and emails…and I still can’t get over the mailbag theme. Game reviews kick off this week with Slayer Pinball Rocks for the iPhone and iPad, which John loves, although Moe and Hilden have some reservations about game mechanics. Next up is Vampire Rage, an Xbox Community shmup that is given love all around and is only $1. Speaking of shooters, Sin and Punishment: Star...

John is out of the studio this week, leaving Drunken Gamers Radio with the dynamic duo of Hilden and Moe. A sad yet hilarious Tom Petty concert story starts things out, leading directly into the “real” show through Drunk Dials. Reviews begin with Hilden’s impressions of Dragon’s Lair for the Blu-Ray, which ultimately boils down to a recommendation if you’re into Dragon’s Lair and you want to see the game in glorious hi-def. Tilt To Live tickle’s Hilden’s hate bone for tilt controls on iPhone, but...

Sean Sands from Gamers with Jobs makes his biyearly pilgrimage to the DGR studios this week, starting things off with Drunk Dials as usual. Listener mail reawakens Moe’s John’s undying love for Jeremy Parish, praises the new Mailbag theme, and dives into the wonders of 3D gaming. Hilden gives his impressions of Gundemonium, a shmup collection available on PSN. The games certainly aren’t for people who just want to dip their feet into shmups, due to the fact that they’re all pattern-based bullethell games. Ultimately,...

I apologize for missing the summary of DGR last week but man, this week’s show is something else. The show starts off as usual with Drunk Dials and the mailbag. The first game up for review is Strategery for the iPhone, which seems to be a fast-paced game of Risk. RayStorm HD for the XBLA is up next which sounds like a great remake of a classic shooter, but John doesn’t feel like it is worth the money. Picross 3D for the DS is the third game this week, and the opinion in the DGR studio is that this is a great extension on the proven...

This week’s show starts off with the news that DGR will soon be selling not only the complete 3 year saga of the Shmopera, but 3 posters representing each year as well and boy, are they pretty from the previews they have shown. On to the show as listeners new and old share their anger and drunkenness through voicemails and emails. We Rule starts up the game talk this week and Hilden is completely addicted (are a few of the staff here). Next up is Beat Hazard which uses your own music and John had a good time importing the Shmopera and recommends...

This week’s DGR is slightly shorter than usual, sans Feature Presentation, although shorter shows are not always a bad thing. Drunk dials and mailbag start out the show as always, with the usual entertaining drunkenness. The guys also have yet another contest with prizes thanks to some of their listeners, with a grand prize being a copy of Mass Effect 2 for the Xbox 360. Reviews start off with Scrabble for the iPad with iPhones connected, which the guys say works very well, and not much else because well, it’s Scrabble. Warioware D.I.Y....

First off, congrats to John on the birth of his son! Drunk Dials and emails start of the show like always with messages from some of the regulars. First up in the reviews segment this week is Game & Watch Collection 2 for the Nintendo DS which John doesn’t care for all that much. Another Club Nintendo exclusive is Grill-Off for WiiWare, which I barely understood anything about. Next up is a product review for the Hitmaster speaker/monitor which all three guys seem to really recommend for sound junkies with some extra money to spend. Last...

This week’s DGR is back to normal as the guys recover from the Midwest Gaming Classic at home in the studio. Drunk Dials and emails open the show as usual, including the usual hilarious call-in from Fluffynuts. With Shmup Month behind us, review also return to normal, with XBL Game Room up first. All three guys seem to agree that although it kind of sucks now, there is promise for the future. Cho Aniki Zero is up next and well, I think this is a game everyone just had to experience for themselves if you’ve never heard of it. Third is...

This week’s DGR is a bit different than normal, both because they are sober and live from the Midwest Gaming Classic. John is missing, but is replaced by several guests including the legendary Fluffynuts. The show starts off with everyone discussing some of their favorite pickups from this year’s MGC as well as their antics from a gaming tournament earlier in the convention. The first interview of the show is with two members of High Voltage discussing their upcoming title Tournament of Legends for the Wii. They make some interesting...

This week’s DGR finds the drunkards a little more in the bag than usual as they mention numerous times that they didn’t start recording until 3am. Some hilarious ramblings start off the show followed by emails and Drunk Dials as usual. Another new contest springs up thanks again to a listener which leads the guys to challenge their listeners to write a poem about shmups to celebrate Shmupreciation month. The review segment this week is a guest spot by friend of the show Phil Haymes discussing Final Fantasy XIII. He talks at length about...

It’s the first week of Shmupreciation month so this week’s show is very shmup-based. Things start off with a preview of the Shmopera, followed by Drunk Dials and emails. Starting off the review segment is Mega Man 10 for various digital platforms. John says that although the game features an easy mode, he almost feel as if it makes things too easy. The guys discuss some of the games other features while Moe ridicules things as always. The retro review this week, like it will be all month, is a classic shmup in the form of Star Soldier...

Moe is out this week for undisclosed reasons, so Hilden and John have brought in two of their friends, Scott and John, who are working on this year’s Shmopera. Drunk Dials and emails start off the show and lead into a new contest for a prize submitted once again by a listener. First up for review is the Xbox Indie game Shoot1UP which is only a buck and the guys find no reason why it shouldn’t be purchased. Next is Sonic & Sega All-Star Racing which John says is right up there with Mario Kart for him, which is big praise for anyone...

Hilden is back this week and the guys are finally in their new DGR studio this week but unfortunately do not have any pictures yet. After a quick bate and switch tale about why Hilden was missing, an extended Drunk Dial and mailbag segment kicks off the show. Starting off the reviews segment, John attempts to discuss Noby Noby Boy for the iPhone, but Hilden and Moe keep giving him and the game so much crap that he can barely get a word in to explain the difference between this game and the PS3 version. Next up is Plants vs. Zombies for the iPhone...

A Hilden-less show again this week as he is off dealing with real life (read: his wife told him he had better things to do), and the show is a bit lacking in being a duo. Like last week, Moe and John had a bit of trouble with the audio equipment and share their adventures to start off the show. Voicemails are skipped so a few emails get things moving for real. Blaster Master: Overdrive for WiiWare is first up in the reviews segment. John seems to enjoy it, but spends most of the time explaining to Moe what the original Blaster Master is all about...
