To catch them is our real test, to rank them is our cause! Remember the olden days when there were only 150 Pokemon (or, well, 151)? Now there's more than 1,000! How can you even begin to pick your top five best and top five worst Pokemon through this storied franchise's history? Pretty easily if you're Steve and Korwin!

Here comes a new challenger! From the Old Game Boys that brought you a podcast episode about Metal Gear, it's... an episode about Guilty Gear!

With a game as beloved and memeable as Metal Gear Solid, find out what Steve and Korwin's favorite quotable lines are from this legendary video game, and get excited for several new award categories introduced in this episode!

Believe it or not, Steve and Korwin had plans to talk about something else this week! But when the topic of what PlayStation 2 games are kept within their respective disc binders came up, they promptly dropped it and spent a good deal of time talking about how great the PS2's library of games is. Enjoy!

For over a thousand generations, the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and justice in the Old Republic. Before the dark times. Before the Disney Empire. Anyway, wake up with some caf, maybe even take it with blue milk and two sugars if that's your fancy--we're off to a galaxy far, far away to talk Star Wars: Dark Forces! An innovative first-person shooter (FPS) that builds further on the foundations that DOOM and Wolfenstein 3D built.
