The Pitch

We do one monster, and by "we" I mean Will and SPECIAL GUEST SUBSTITUTE GWEN STATIC!!!!

Bubble Bobble is elemental! How could you screw it up? Well, they found a way. Bubble Bobble Revolution isn’t just bad because it’s nonfunctional… even if you could get past level 30, it would still be an ugly game that feels bad in your hands. But there isn’t much to say beyond that, so enjoy a meandering talk about what the existence of the Costco Guys says about our chances of the world getting better, ever.

In this episode we recommend some BG3 Youtubers in The Role of Computers.

You’d never guess it, but there’s still more Shadow Keep left to explore. Approaching from the Bonny Village side gets you into the flooded Church District, an area that calls New Londo to mind. But what lies beneath the water is stranger and more mysterious than the Darkwraiths.

Kole, Dennis, and Moxie talk about the games we played for Duckstream, Withering Rooms, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, and much more!

The Grind:

• Kole: Resident Evil 2 Remake. Resident Evil 2: Kendo’s Cut. Human Fall Flat. PIKO PARK 2.
• Moxie: Withering Rooms.
• Dennis: S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. RoboQuest.

The Multiplayer:

• Propose a new category of video game award.

The End Boss:

• NBC News should have researched Among Us before saying that thing about the UHC shooter.
• The NES Tetris game is getting a rerelease for the first time ever.

What's the worst musician that could hijack your brain? Honestly, you could probably do a lot worse than Johnny Silverhand.

Two monsters, despite recording right after Duckstream! Heroes, heroes, heroes.

With a name like The Brainies, you know Gary brought this game to the show. He’s been on a tireless search for new Zoombinis, new Babos, new Creatures… any annoying little guy to dunk on. The problem is, the Brainies don’t got the sauce. And they might be kinda racist?

This week we head on down to Bonny Village, which doesn’t seem so bonny to us. Instead, it was the beating heart of the hornsent’s jar-making operation. This is where the shamans, Marika’s people, were butchered and put into jars in order to make them into “saints”. Eventually they wish they didn’t do that.

Breaking Bad goes intercontinental, and our hero is definitely a gross villain now, just in time for Lydia to join the party.

We would like to thank Gwen Static for composing our theme song, and Trent Peters for creating our great podcast art.
