  • Super Mario Galaxy - That Game Rules! Ep 027

    “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for an Italian plumber.”

      Mama Mia! Finally, a chance to redeem myself for that terrible Mario 64 episode. The episode, not the game, I’m only slightly less terrible now. Super Mario Galaxy debuted on the Wii back in 2007. I should have played it more back then, but I’ll make up for it now. This game has it all: the levels, the music, the goombas and the Lumas. Let’s all head to the Star Festival and celebrate, cuz it’s-a Mario time! 

      Oh boy, what else did 2007 have in store for us? Classic shows like Dora, Diego, Phineas and Ferb, and iCarly are dominating the TV, Live action cartoons are making their way the theaters, and we talk a toy with an amputation story. Neat! 

      Per usual, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too... 

       

      Let's waste some more time this week on the worst gaming podcast on the internet!

    • Banjo-Kazooie - That Game Rules! Ep 026

      Banjo Kazooie is another Nintendo and Rare collab, and there’s a reason these are some of the best video games ever made. When this game hit the market, Banjo and Kazooie talon trotted right off the screen and into our hearts. An excellent mix of platforming and puzzle solving mixed with never ending humor and charm. Yeah, I like this game. Let’s talk about history, story, level rankings, and more Mumbo Jumbo on another banjo strumming episode of That Game Rules! 

      Stopping by 1998, we ask Miss Cleo to read our fortune. She said I should start a podcast about cereal. I talk about movies, shows, and the most dangerous girl toy ever made. 

      And of course, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

    • The Simpsons Arcade - That Game Rules! Ep 025

      Hi Everybody! It’s Simpsons Arcade time! I was going to advertise this podcast by standing outside and firing a shotgun into the air, but I don’t want Wiggum and his little hooves coming after me. Let this podcast simmer in your brain like a nice steamed ham. If Mr. Curns is listening, remember, I bad want money now. Me sick. Oooh, he card read good.  

       

      We take a timewarp to Springfield itself! We talk The Simpsons Movie, The Simpsons TV show, Simpsons toys, and Simpsons video games! We also just talk a lot about old arcade memories. 

      And of course, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

    • Mega Man 3 - That Game Rules! Ep 024

      It’s Mega Man time! We got special weapons, Rush, Proto Man, and all the sprite flickers and slowdown you can manage. Let’s talk levels, robot masters, and the amazing music of another legacy NES game. Is Mega Man 3 better than Mega Man 2? Can you handle all the Mega Man tracks I play during the episode? We’ll break it all down in another buster blastin’ episode of That Game Rules!  

       

      We stop by the 90s because it was awesome! Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! We talk movies, cartoons, and breakdown the Consumers Electronics Show. A Game Gear prototype? Shut up and take my money! 

       

      And of course, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

    • Resident Evil 2 - That Game Rules! Ep 022

      “Where’s my zombies and all my dogs? Throw them hands up and show some love, and I welcome you to Racoon City, I said welcome to Racoon City.” Stock up your ammo and ink ribbons and run, walk, or limp though this episode as we dissect the horror masterpiece Resident Evil 2. This game gives me all the feelings and was hard to cram into an hour episode, so I didn’t - I just keep talking, but we manage to show this game some love. Enjoy the zombie filled episode, Happy Halloween! 

       

      We take a trip in time back to 1998. The console wars had evolved as the Sony Playstation and Nintendo 64 battled for our attention. Digital toys were hitting the market and CG shows and movies were hitting the screens. And we talk lots more zombies! 

       

      And of course, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

    • Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts - That Game Rules! Ep 021

      An epic story about a knight named Arthur and his never-ending quest to find pants! I love a good, challenging game that rewards you while feeding you your lunch. Our brave hero travels beyond graveyards, haunted castles, demonic dungeons, and a journey through the ghoul’s stomach itself. This game is tough but looks good doing it. Let’s break down Super Ghouls ‘N Ghosts on the Super Nintendo! Super! 

       

      Let’s talk 1991, a time before the internet and memes. A simpler time, filled with Blockbuster video, public payphones, and curfew was when the streetlights came on. We talk Mcdonalds Halloween, Captain N, Goosebumps books and whole lot more.  

       

      And of course, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

    • Castlevania - That Game Rules! Ep 020

      This week’s episode is on the amazing NES classis Castlevania. A legacy game that spawned sequels across generations, comics and lore, a Netflix series, and a story that continues to this day. This game spawned its own genre of video games, and it all began with a vampire hunter named Simon Belmont. Watch out for those Medusa heads! Let’s go over this whole game and more on a monster mashing episode of That Game Rules! 

       

      It’s Halloween in 1987! We go over some old scary movies, talk about some of the more dramatic lines of TMNT figures, and we talk lots of vampires. Grab your stakes and garlic, avoid the stairs, and let’s get spooky this week! 

       

      And of course, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

    • Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire - That Game Rules! Ep 019

      A long time ago, in a basement far, far away... Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire from the N64 on a nice CRT tv. This game took a chance with a new character and story placed within the Star Wars universe we know and love. Let’s dive into Dash Rendar’s story and talk about bounty hunters, wonky N64 controls, wampas, and some of the best music in Star Wars gaming. Punch it, Chewie! 

       

      We stop by 1996 and talk about more Star Wars. Star Wars books, Star Wars comics, speaking of Star Wars, The Star Wars Holiday Special was great wasn’t it? We check out some Toys R Us exclusives, daydream about the Sega Saturn, and discuss another edition of dad movies. 

       

      And of course, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...

    • Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins - That Game Rules! Ep 018

      This week we head back to the Gameboy to play a Top 3 All Time Gameboy game, Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. We’ve got some sweet new mechanics, new power-ups, and the introduction of a certain mustachioed villain. Let’s jump, swim, and fly our way through another Mario adventure here at That Game Rules! 

       

      We also take a fun trip to 1992. You’ve got the NES and SNES, but did you ever get the NCS? Plus, we talk old movies, a Super Gameboy breakdown, and my special guest won’t shut up about some other nonsense. NIN-TEN-DO! 

       

      And of course, I can't keep the thoughts straight and talk about a whole bunch of other nonsense too...
