Hey Retro Gamers! On today's episode of Smashing Bricks we travel back in time to 2008 and then travel back in time repeatedly—perhaps too much—in Braid for Xbox Live Arcade.

Join me, Eddie Inzauto, and returning guest Jason Fanelli as we takle some of the toughest time-bending platforming puzzles in this landmark title from Jonathan Blow and Number None.

Launching off of the Nintendo GameCube near-launch title, Pikmin, Mason and I are talking about our top 5 favorite (and one least favorite) Nintendo consoles!

Our amazing guest Nolan couldn't stick around for this month's follow-up topic, so once again I've roped in noted horror game enthusiast Kyle Stallock to join me in a round-robin-tournament-style ranking of all of the Silent Hill games that we think are even worth mentioning.

Will I have more luck getting my preferred rankings this time versus the SoulsBourneRingKiro episode? Listen to find out. Also, which Silent Hill game is the Dark Souls II of Silent Hill?

Hey Retro Gamers! On today's episode of Smashing Bricks, we experience the psychological horror of Silent Hill 2 for the PlayStation 2.

Join me, Eddie Inzauto, and special guest Nolan from New Game Plus as we follow the guidance of a bizzare letter beckoning us to the town of Silent Hill in this 2001 horror game from Team Silent and Konami.
