Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross groove to Elite Beat Agents and Rhythm Heaven.
This summer, we decided to let our listeners decide which rhythm games we should play. The resounding winners were to non-peripheral Nintendo DS rhythm games that couldn't be any more different.

Meanwhile, Rhythm Heaven is drenched in charm, and manages to be in the upper echelon of games we've played for the show.
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross gush about Dragon Quest Adventures: Rocket Slime.
This is the first Dragon Quest game we've covered, and of course it had to be a weird one. Rocket Slime trades in the turn-based combat for top-down action and surprisingly deep tank battles.
