Man, we should probably all start playing some video games on this video game podcast...
Welcome to the last regular episode of Nerds Without Pants of 2014! Since it is our last opportunity to talk about what media we’ve been consuming until January, we get together and…not really talk much about video games. Huh. Well, it’s a show, anyway.

If there’s one thing that Spike Chunsoft has proven, it’s that they know how to make a damn good visual novel. Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is their latest title to be localized to America and it stands up to the high standards set by their Zero Escape series. While similar in premise, Danganronpa eschews the puzzle-based design and offers up a unique gameplay style that blends Ace Attorney, Persona Social Links, and a touch of Rhythm Heaven. It all comes together to form a gripping and zany experience that doesn’t let up till the credits roll.
Don't miss this thrilling successor to 2010's cult classic, 999.
I’m sure I’m not the only one who spent countless hours in the elementary school library reading each and every Choose Your Own Adventure book available, exploring each and every deviating path the story offered.

If you’ve any love for these types of experiences, there’s no question that Virtue’s Last Reward will have you on its hook for well over 30 hours.
