Hey Retro Gamers, welcome back to Bonus Round!

These monthly podcast episodes are Patreon Exclusives and available at the Tanooki level of support or higher. Each month, my guest and I will put together some sort of list, ranking, or otherwise fun conversation, usually related to that month's main episode. These wil be released on the 28th of each month, and hopefully will be the dessert you've been missing after the main course episode two weeks earlier!

Enjoy this short preview. I hope it encourages you to support the show on Patreon!

This month's episode on Number None's Xbox Live Arcade game, Braid, had me thinking about what the best XBLA games of all time were, so Jason and I put together a list of our favorites for you. There are categories, honorable mentions, our top 5s, and more! Check out Patreon for the full episode.

And please comment in the Discord about YOUR favorite XBLA games. There's a channel for Bonus Round topics now! ⁠discord.smashingbricks.com⁠

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.

Make sure you listen until the end to hear what the next game is and play through with us before the 14th of next month!
