So hey. We decided to make the IGBC into its own show. This is the third one! Maybe it’ll always be in this format, maybe it wont.
We’d love to hear some feedback about this. Tell us what you think! Reach us on Twitter via @ohnovideogames or post on the comments here!
This week it’s about “The Killer” Next week it’s about “Murder Dog IV: The Trial of Murder Dog“.

Agreed, this game has a powerful message at the end (as said many times in the podcast). It you think that games like COD never leaves you with any feeling about war, genocide or tyrannical despots throughout a 6 hour experience, yet the 5 minutes playing this is really impactful. If you are ever in need of a game with another strong message at the end in the future, try this one http://www.kongregate.com/games/ambitiousk/escape
I actually preferred playing the game with the ambient music as it allowed me to appreciate the surroundings and what was happening in-game more. I only played through three times, but once you’ve been hit with a mine once, the ever present “poopie I might step on a mine” thought doesn’t leave your head for too long, which is obviously what the creator wanted. It actually reminded me of One Chance ( http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/555181 )for some reason. Looking forward to this weeks show !
