Retrovaniacs

After an unintended break, we're here again to discuss a game somewhat recently re-released to the Nintendo Switch 2 GameCube library - Super Mario Sunshine! Mario and his friends take a vacation that goes awry and only Mario and his water-squirting backpack can save the day-- but are the additional water-shooting mechanics any fun or an unnecessary addition to the franchise?  We played it again now to see!

On this epsiode, we're taking a look at yet another caveman game... wait, this is actually interesting?  Well, let's go back to the stone age to see why this caveman platform game should be worth a second look!

We're talking Rayman, Ubisofts mascot platformer, and his first outing which was on the Playstation way back in 1995!  Rayman has been around since then in sequels and spinoffs, and there's a new Rayman remake due out later this year -- but was his first game worth still checking out today?  We let you know.

True Lies the movie came out in 1994 and was an Arnold Schwarzenegger action comedy.  So, it only makes sense that in 1995 there would be a video game based on it for the SNES, Genesis, Game Boy, and Game Gear.  But after watching the movie - there isn't that much action.  What did they do to pad it out then?  Well, listen up, we're gonna tell you.

This time we're taking a look at the second Jurassic Park game for the Genesis, Jurassic Park Rampage Edition!  While the title might lead you to believe it's just the first game with some new content, this is more of a second try at making that first game again, with similar but different levels, and improved gameplay.  Also, did we mention you can play as a person OR as a raptor? Yeah, nobody is playing as Dr. Grant.

We also answer some of your questions and talk about Dreamcast favorites, a modern remake of an NES "classic", and we talk about our least favorite games we've covered for the last 10+ years.
