The title seems redundant, but it's better than saying "Batman, the NES game. The one made by SunSoft. For the first movie, kinda."

This might be the hardest game we've done for the show, but we might also have lost track. This is a compact little platformer that is certainly of its era, but it's also a rare great licensed game. Borrowing elements from several other platformers, Ninja Gaiden most noticeably, SunSoft created a challenging and technical Batman game when mediocrity would have sold.

We love Resident Evil, and are willing to extend it a lot of leeway. However, this entry is a bridge too far. At the height of their powers, the Resident Evil team decided to make a hybrid FPS/light gun/survival horror game on the PSX of all systems. The result is bland and muddled, even if it adds a little to Umbrella lore.

Summer Jam season continues, late into the summer, with this undeniable ear worm from the golden age of west coast gangsta rap. Dig it.

Plant week continues with some smart, smart plants.

Gary Buttefield joins the show to talk about Stephen King's novella (and the associated movie) that's all about what we become when the fear sets in. An otherworldly fog containing hideous monsters has descended on a small town, and perhaps the only survivors are locked away in a grocery store. The pressure is on.

We know this is a good game. We're just overwhelmed.

Plant week begins with some dangerous, dangerous plants.
