Welcome to another episode of The Gamerheads Podcast! With Roger mysteriously absent, the wild speculation about his whereabouts ranges from hot air balloon festivals to diamond-dealing escapades in the sky, all while we reminisce about the Atari 2600 and missed chances to snag those coveted Activision patches.
We dive into the exhilarating world of video game adaptations. Imagine the sprawling, chaotic fall of Rapture in a Bioshock prequel series on Netflix, or the epic Western landscapes of a Red Dead Redemption show. How about a Metroid anime or a Turok adventure? We throw out ideas for everything from Streets of Rage to a Final Fight series, and even indulge in some nostalgic chatter about the divisive but intriguing movie "A Sound of Thunder".
We wrap things up by sharing our highs and lows with video games. Struggling with the temptation of new games and sales, we debate over potential purchases like The Plucky Squire and Lollipop Chainsaw. It’s a rollercoaster of humor, nostalgia, and candid reflections on the gaming world that you won’t want to miss!

Ever wondered if Roger is off mastering secret ninja skills or just kicking back at a Motel 6 in Akron, Ohio? While he's away, Mike and Phil are holding down the fort in this hilariously unpredictable episode of The Gamerheads Podcast. We kick things off with some playful banter about regional hot dogs that will leave your mouth watering and your sides aching with laughter. Plus, a big thank you to our amazing Patreon supporters—you folks are the real MVPs, allowing us to keep bringing the heat and attending awesome events like PAX.
Get ready for a nostalgia trip as we dive into the revival of classic video games! Sega’s making waves with leaked footage of a Crazy Taxi reboot and spiritual successors to Jet Set Radio. We're also crossing our fingers for a Dino Crisis reboot using Capcom's RE Engine and craving a return to the golden days of WWE games like No Mercy. But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows—Mike and Phil address the recent Xbox layoffs and what the Activision Blizzard acquisition means for the gaming industry. It’s a rollercoaster of emotions you won't want to miss.
What do you think about dropping $699 on a PlayStation 5 Pro? We break down the pros and cons of this hefty price tag, comparing it to the current gaming landscape and potential shifts towards PC gaming. Our chat then shifts to some killer game reviews, including "Tales of Iron" and "Yars Rising," both offering unique gameplay and narratives that are sure to keep you entertained. Finally, we share some gut-busting stories from playing "The Quarry," a choose-your-own-adventure horror game that had us on the edge of our seats—and occasionally in stitches. So buckle up, it’s going to be a wild ride!
