On a most excellent sixty-ninth episode of “Barrel Roll! A Video Game Podcast”, the dudes must travel through time to find the most  bodacious of all gaming experiences.

When the time comes for the shooting of the breeze, Jesse and Adam give us the rundown on their experience with the VD-W3 Wii HDMI Upscaler Processor. EXCELLENT!

In what we’ve been playing, the guys return to Monster Hunter Tri and 3D Dot Game Heroes. Jonah has been giving some portable games a try in the form of Highborn and Carcassonne on the iPod Touch as well as Blue Dragon: Awakened Shadow on the DS.

In the news, the guys talk pre-E3 rumors, particularly on the Nintendo 3DS. There is also talk of multiplayer gameplay hitting the Mass Effect universe, a new Contra game in the works, and a patch to Lost Planet 2 that addresses nearly all of our complaints.

We also talk about some new game trailers and finish things off with a Mega Man News Roundup. All this and more on the latest episode of Barrel Roll.
