Nerd Rage Renegades

Split is being called the return of Shyamalan and the Renegades have finally see it. What did they think of this return to form and how did they feel about the twist ending? The guys also look at one of their favorite shows currently on your screens in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia! They discuss the characters, their wacky adventures and why this show if you like dark humor is the one for you. Also they ask WHERE IS THE 1998 MULAN SZECHUAN SAUCE!

After a week off due to illness the guys are back and are talking about the recent news coming from Marvel comics. The books aren't selling and blame is being put on various reasons, but what do the guys think? Why do they think the books aren't selling? What would they like to see happen? Why is DC Rebirth doing so much better than Marvels array of books? Is Chief canceling all his Marvel subscriptions? All these answered and remember these are our opinions!

The final Netflix series from Marvel before the Defenders is here and the guys have watched every episode. They give their thoughts on Iron Fist and a little bit about some of the backlash. They discuss a theory of his creation, easter eggs in the show, what they want to see from Marvel and Netflix next and of course upcoming comic solicitations. Also Spin gives his thoughts on the upcoming Disney Afternoon Collection coming from Capcom and his current progress in Batman Arkham Knight. 

Mike Matei joins the Renegades this week and there is a lot to talk about. Mike tells us about the new AVGN X2 blu-ray and AVGN DVD's that are now available on Amazon. We talk The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and his recent streaming of it. We also talk about how Mike and Ryan came to be, Ryan's streaming, James and Mike Mondays, Ducktales, Star Trek and the history of AVGN from Mike's perspective. This is a retro filled episode that you don't want to miss. 

The Renegades, now in the current generation of console gaming, have gone back and are tackling Batman Arkham Knight. The guys this week discuss the Arkham series. Why it is the best superhero games ever made, what other games should be made in this style, some really bad superhero games, the entire Lego Marvel roster and more. They also discuss possible upcoming games they will be playing together as they incorporate more gaming into the Renegade arsenal.

The guys take a look at the Old Gods of World of Warcraft this week. They discuss the homages to H.P. Lovecraft found within the game from Yogg Saron, N'Zoth and the other Old Gods, to the faceless ones. Chief also gets an education into the world that is Warcraft, some other pop culture references found within the game and how he can start his Journey through Azeroth. 

Resident Evil 7 is a return to form for this Survival Horror Series and both Spin and Chief have played through the entire game! What did they like? What could be better? Why does Spin have to ask real world questions about a game? How does it match to other games in the series and will Spin and Chief, the masters of unlocking, become a Renegade Sandwich?

The Renegades are back and this week adult actress Skyler Nicole joins us to talk her nerdy passions. We talk movies, video games, her favorite genre of games, anime and a bit about her time in the business.
