It seems like only yesterday that we launched our retro and nostalgia podcast KnockBack, and yet it's been nearly two years since our maiden voyage. A hundred weeks on, we've naturally arrived at our 100th episode, and to celebrate, we thought we'd talk about our greatest shared love: Video games. More specifically, we thought we'd talk about 100 games we absolutely adore, 100 games any aficionado of the medium should check out. Enjoy our longest episode of KnockBack to date (four hours!), and thank you so much for supporting our show, and making it the hit it has become. As usual, we simply couldn't do it without you.

Going to make some appointments just so I could cancel them to clear my schedule for this one

Tim J Weckwerth

Traffic for KnockBack must be growing exponentially lately. Early on only a handful of people would comment in the first few minutes of an episode posting on Patreon. Now there are a ton of us! Congratulations on 100 episodes my dudes! Looking forward to many more years to come!

JD

PHAT episode of my fav brother duo talking about my fav hobby :D

David Hicks

Now to commence staying at home, ordering five guys, and kicking back to this beast of an episode.

Liam Fagan

Wow, persona 5 is Colin's favourite game

Alex Bolton

Sergio Vargas

I became a patreon recently and I'm already loving it. 2020 is a big year for us, Playstation fans and CLS fans.

Dagan should save the bell for the Breaking Bad episode. Iconic.

Kenneth Oms

Adam Barnes

Now, that’s a value.

Ryan Harvey

Also - Catherine Full Body has a remix mode which adds a new and fascinating addition to block types the group block which make tetromino shaped varieties of blocks linked together (al la tetris). Really changes up the gameplay

strawhatninja

Thank you for this! What a great way to celebrate. Here's to 100 more!!

Jose Horrach

Oh my fucking God 4 hours? I'm so excited

Ian (616Entertainment)

I see 4 hours, I know I’m going to have a good day. And that’s that on that.

Congratulations on 100 episodes of KnockBack, Colin and Dagan. Here's to 100 more!

McBain

I love you guys and this podcast. Also love the picture. Dagan looks so much like Mr. Moriarty

Christopher Moore

Congratulations on 2 years and 100 episodes of podcast greatness! Also, a 4 hour podcast? Are you some kind of great and powerful magician?!?!

McBain

Also are you guys able to post your lists somewhere as a quick reference guide?

Brandon Soto

You know what’s funny, Col’, not to go off on a tangent.... *Dagan voice*

Brandon Soto

I love this podcast, bro. Got me through a lot of rough times, especially remembering these topics when they first came out. Here’s to 100 more episodes 🎉🍻

Kevin Sullivan

4 hours, God bless you both. I can't wait to listen to this tomorrow.

Just finished! loved it, such a fun idea!

Jessica Gutiérrez

Really appreciate you guys taking the time out of your lives to bless us with 4 hours of awesome.

Forrest Hunter

Fucking “double Rambo,” hahahaha!

Johannes

I listened to this episode while finally finishing Uncharted Golden Abyss on Vita. It was my first knockback episode and I loved it.

Andres

Colin you gotta play Catherine Full Body... it's not just a port. The 3rd girl element made it feel like a new story.

Anonymous

Not sure if anyone else has pointed this out, but Castle of Illusion had a remake in 2013 that was released on PS3 and 360. It was a good remake for a great game!

Jake De Agrela

Approaching Irishman levels of epic with this 100th show!

Anthony Longo

Oh man this is gonna be a long night lol 4 hours of you knuckleheads. AirPods in sleep on the way , hopefully !

Jeff Pollard

Congratulations on 100 episodes!! You guys are awesome! Just sitting down to listen now.

James

Damn, this hit me right in the nostalgia feels! Episodes like this VALIDATE the podcast name! I would give anything to relive a Saturday morning in the 90’s! Id love Nintendo to make a VR game called Saturday morning and you play old NES games like virtual console! Lol

Kam Wallis

100 episodes, amazing! Dagan has quickly become one of my favorite podcast hosts! Have to admit though, that Google alarm brings back flashbacks of using my phone for an alarm. Alarm tone for my Pixel 2 XL sounded exactly like that, makes sense seeing as it is a Google phone.

Anonymous

This was such a cool episode, well done episode. You guys talking about living in New England and being snowed in while playing games was awesome. I always tell people how that’s the best part of winter here in Boston. It’s something I always enjoyed and look forward to. Great episode, hats off to you two sons of a bitch!

Jason Stafford

Y'all were killing me with the bell. Dagan's bell sounded perfect to me. (I'm really hoping Dustin didn't edit in a good bell sound.) I was laughing so hard I was afraid I was going to wreck my truck.

Drew Lee

The timer beep sounds like the interlude beep in Cha Cha Slide....and I can’t not hear it.

Trapgunner

While the first two Wild Arms are good games. I also have a soft spot for Wild Arms 5. Late ps2 release and pretty overlooked.

Will Caldwell

Only a hour in and this is one of my favorite episodes in a while(though all are very good). Bravo on the bell idea. Had me cracking up.

Samuel Mills

I definitely don't mind the episodes being longer like this one. But this topic especially warranted it. Really fun episode.

Barrett Boswell

One of the best episodes yet. Thank you boys for doing that and Dustin for editing.

Ivan Hornett

https://youtu.be/m8ipdQz_O5U Here’s the skate video with the ducktales song Dagan mentioned.

GameSimp

Here’s to 100 more!

This is my first time listening to an episode of Knockback! I really enjoyed it, and I have some constructive feedback for DM. Please don't take offense - I really want the pod to be great. DM's takes often feel too milquetoast, as if he is holding back from what he really feels. This is probably normal for someone who isn't experienced podcasting (Colin has over a decade of experience). I think it would be cool to have one or two DM solo podcasts (even if just for practice) to help him fortify his skills. I just noticed that most of what DM said for the first 30 minutes were simple affirmations "yes" "of course" "exactly" and I have a feeling he has a lot more to offer once settling in. Love you guys. Edit**DM finds his footing around the 2 hour mark, particularly when talking about Journey.

Matt tamer

Also why do you guys say "my friend" so much lol

Watch Ergo Proxy

FINALLY SOMEBODY ACKNOWLEDGES HOW GOOD FINAL FANTASY 4 WAS

Ryan Murdoch

Great episode. Congratulations lads, I was sitting on my couch playing Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow while listening, great way to spend a saturday afternoon.

Andy Jenereaux

Great episode!! I was surprised that Dark Cloud didn’t make Colin’s 50 :(

Jack Sibert

I respect these lists. Mine's quite a bit different, but I extracted a bunch of recommendations from this episode

Joe McPartlin

I love that the clock rule doesn't apply to Journey <3

The Rose Experience

It's a list and I don't even know what I'm writing this but here I go: It's time for an I Am Setsuna intervention Colin. It's your list, I know, I know but man is it one of the single most mediocre RPG's ever made and simply a pale imitation of everything it aims to emulate. I say emulate because that's what the entire aim is and it does it rather poorly. The combat system is a mess taking what Chrono Trigger did so well and frankly ruining it. The menu's were one of the worst I've seen in an RPG and keep you guessing as to what character and which abilities create what combo. Maybe it's a time and place thing for you and that's why it means so much but I can't grasp this Setsuna thing, I'm sorry! Anyway, love ya man and I enjoyed the pod even if it was way too NES heavy.

The Rose Experience

I wrote this tongue in cheek btw, I'm not some weirdo that finds it offensive you like a game that I have mixed feelings on, just wanted to participate in the conversation. Peace brothers!

Marcus Brown

Incredible episode and a epic milestone! Also they're clearly games I need to play lol here's to 100 more!!!

Omar Rosa

Another banger of an episode! Thank you guys!

LastStandMedia

I feel like that would kinda ruin the episode, but I won't stop someone else from doing so, naturally!

LastStandMedia

I thought so. I felt like there was something out there. Dagan will be interested to know this.

Jack Sibert

This episode was great, but man did it make me realize once again how much the proprietary audio player on Patreon sucks. Every time I stopped and came back to continue listening, it restarted from the beginning. Had to start remembering the exact minute I was leaving off at in order to come back later and continue

Anonymous

Fantastic listen! Thank you guys so much for putting in the time and effort to put such an amazing saga together for our enjoyment. But wait, I wasn’t counting! How many games actually overlapped on your lists?!

Ryan B.

Glad Zelda 2 got some love. My all time favorite game by a mile.

Michael Cook

Great episode! listened to it whilst painting the spare room - so you guys shal always be somewhat responsible for the awful job I have done in there...

Sam Dunham

I've got something to send Dagan. How do I make that happen? ;)

Bryan Finck

One of my favorite episodes of anything you've ever done, Colin! Discovered several new games that I can't wait to play and its always a joy to hear you and Dagan just riff back and forth. Can't wait for episode 1000!

NeO JD

This was awesome. Loved hearing about the retro games too. Gotta step my KnockBack game up. ❤️

Kaleb

I was shocked to hear Dagan say Chase HQ, it was one of the first games I've played on my game boy, never heard anyone talk about it.

Anonymous

4 hours, damn you spoil us. does this take the cake for there longest podcast so far?

Anonymous

How dare you not include (insert game I like) !?

Chase Blauvelt

Damn man. This podcast is so special and I'm surprised literally every pair of brothers hasn't done this yet because it seems so fun.

Joey Rawlings

Colin, it sounds like a bell.

Danny Akenson

Someone probably already commented this and I'm too lazy to read through the comments, but the PS4 version of Catherine does have a third Catherine added, this one named Qat (I think). I haven't played it, so I'm not sure how much it affect the game, but there's some level of new content added, at least

YaBoyStevieJay

Could you and Dagan maybe post your lists on the Patreon? I was listening while driving and didn’t get a chance to write down some of the games you mentioned to check out. Love the show!

Travis B

How could Colin leave off chrono trigger!?!? Best jrpg!

Colin slaughters all cummers.

Kevin Cooper

Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy... WOODS!!

Brett Carlson

Colin I completely agree that Vice City has one of the best soundtracks ever, but a game I feel a lot of; atleast mainstream journos, didnt shine a light on for its music is...... Death Stranding. Now listen I know this style of very low, introspective music isn't for everyone, but those tracks as your trekking through a beautiful desolate memory of what once was America, and then the camera pulls back and the music gets louder. Just wow. And the fact Kojima found Low Roar in the bumblefuck of Iceland and pretty much single handedly made their careers is something to behold about Kojima as a creator. The soundtrack fits the game perfectly and to EVERYONE I implore you to put Asylums for the Feelings by Silent Poets on your playlist. A truly harrowing song.

Brett Carlson

Also for anyone wondering you can play Mass Effect trilogy on Xbox One through Games Pass. Just ran through the whole trilogy about 3 months ago. Colin is right about PS4 though and its unfortunate.

Daniel Guetter

Colin, I cant seem to access this episode of knock back on patreon. I tried a couple days ago and it just buffers but never plays.

LastStandMedia

Yeah, I really liked Death Stranding's music, and I like how the game announced new tracks so that if I was listening to a podcast or something I knew to shut it off so I could take a gander.

2022-01-24 06:30:42 Hey Daniel, I'm not sure why that is! It's the first I'm hearing about this. (Make sure to DM me if you have problems so I see your issue quicker.) If you're listening on the app, you may need to try to logout and log back in. I hate to do this, too, but Patreon Support might be able to help. <3

Ok I did as you said, and it worked! Thanks alot :)

Brett Carlson

Actually there is a solution Colin now that I think of it. EA Access is now available on PS4 where it was previously only available on Xbox for console. They can be played through that app on Playstation. I assume it cant be downloaded from the PS Store because EA is keeping some type of stranglehold on it
