It features the original soundtrack from Gradius: The Slot. You can rest assured that a How Can I Play It? feature will be showing up later this week to put you in touch with as many of these classics as possible.Įpisode description: Kurt Kalata and Rob Russo join us from Hardcore Gaming 101 to delve into the history of Konami's legendary Gradius series.68:29 Gradius: The Slot Original Soundtrack, catalog number GFCA-294, is a music album published by Konami Digital Entertainment in 2011. We cover a whole heck of a lot of ground in this episode. Of course, the HG101 crew was essential for this episode, because they've written a book on Gradius and its offshoots. You can't ask for a more expert opinion than that! If you don't mind the slightly plosive quality of our Ps (we didn't have room in our travel kit for pop filters) and the occasional rumble of high-performance racers (they were doing laps in the hotel parking lot right ourside our window), this sounds like a studio episode despite being recorded on the road. The only time I have found them useful is introducing me to things I have missed or overlooked. They are often devoid of any insightful information and more about vindicating opinions. This episode follows on from my recent retrospectives on Gradius for NES and Gradius III for Super NES, and hopefully helps you better understand those games' place in history.Īs with Friday's Micro, we're joined by Kurt Kalata and Rob Russo of Hardcore Gaming 101 for this episode - though fortunately, this recording happened under more ideal circumstances.

Mission control for retronauts former EIC of 1UP.com and taking dapper (and frogs) back from the Nazis.ĭid you know that today marks the 20th anniversary of the original release of Gradius Gaiden, also known as the finest classic Gradius game ever conceived by Konami? Isn't it an incredible coincidence that on this august day, the Retronauts podcast should happen to publish an entire episode dedicated to the Gradius series? Seems almost like one of those things that is a little too convenient to have happened by accident.
