We continue our controversial series with Carmageddon. Originally for MS-Dos this game took the scene by storm by offering the players points for running over pedestrians. See how many points we give it and the inherent backlash people rushed to give it at the time.
This game is a throw back for both of us. In the new age era of video games having an "Adult Only" rating basically destroyed your chances of being a successful game. Except for Manhunt. Prepare the soap because this one gets dirty fast as we deep dive into why this game became one of the most infamous even by todays standards.
As we continue our series of controversies we dive into our first video game one. Treasure Quest had a very unique marketing ploy of offering anyone who bought the game and BEAT it that they would win one million bucks. Did someone win or was it all just a ploy to get people to buy their game? Tune in to find out.
We fall down the conspiracy hole on this one for hopefully a mini series based around different controversies that were "covered up". Disney had a full fledged water park, one that lasted for 20+ years in fact. Don't remember it? Neither did we so in this episode we dive into the mystery of this water parks premature closure.
There are a ton of apps out there and being in this industry we get the opportunity sometimes to be the early adopters of these. We always hope that they'll blow up but so far it's yet to be seen and clubhouse is no different. You all remember clubhouse right? RIGHT?! Oh, well lets talk about it then.
What better way to wrap up our hidden gems series than with one of the biggest hidden gem consoles out there. These consoles had such a plethora of great games it's hard to choose which ones people may have actually missed so join us on the finale and see which ones we chose to show off.
Our 2nd to last episode in the hidden gem series! We cover the Genesis and the Game gear in this action packed episode of games thrown to the wayside. These consoles were power houses in their day and had extensive libraries to go through so let us do some of the work for ya.
Oh dear sweet polygons, how the first iterations of your glory still have such a special place in our hearts. These two consoles have EXTENSIVE libraries of some of the best games around. They still hold up to this day in our eyes and we go over some of the ones you probably didn't hear about.
The greatest console ever to exist and General and myself are here to cover it. No it's not the dreamcast (but that will come later). We TEAR into this "gaming" console and go over a ton of the "games" that were released and our experiences with them.
We finish out the hidden gem series of Nintendo with our picks for the Wii then dive immediately into OLD OLD school with our favorites from MSDOS. This episode is so filled with nostalgia it's difficult to even DESCRIBE it so just go LISTEN to it instead.
