They may not be canon and they may not always be happy, but few hidden extras are quite as satisfying to find as secret endings - and this week, we count down five of our favorites. Then it's on to our reactions to Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, some feigned shock at Halo 5's Teen rating, and our first-ever sing-along community segment, with lyrics YOU assigned to game music.

It's been a great week for fans of retro games - and for GameStop employees, who now have an answer to the eternal question, "Do you have Battletoads?" The release of Rare Replay spurred our spoiled-child brains to talk about five games that didn't make it into the collection, which we then discuss at length during the New Releases segment. Then it's on to a smattering of Gamescom news and a look at the times you MacGyvered something in real life.

Seventeen years after its last installment, King's Quest is back among the living with this week's release of a new episodic adventure series. Happy as we are to see King Graham back in the thick of it, his return made us wistful for other adventure franchises that haven't had a new installment since the '90s - and that, with the recent revival of adventure gaming, are ripe for another chance. Then it's on to some talk about (of course!) the new King's Quest, Arnold Schwarzenegger joining WWE 2K16, and the animals you'd most like to ride as mounts.

Cars are great and all, but if you really want to get around in style, nothing beats nature's motorcycle: the noble horse. Especially when you can call them to your side at any time, like the summonable horses in this week's Top 5. Then we talk about Journey, Tembo and other new releases; some EVO news; and the deceased fighting games you'd love to see make a comeback.

The Evo Championship Series begins today, giving fighting-game fans around the world a chance to feel really inadequate by watching pro competitors at work. Since none of us are going, the best you'll get is this week's Top 5 - suggested by special guest star Heidi Kemps (of Gaming.moe) - in which we count down our favorite fighting franchises that never made it past their first sequels. We then get maudlin over the sad passing of Nintendo President Satoru Iwata, but not before delving into Deception IV and this week's other new releases. This one's pretty up-and-down, and that's even before we get to the answers to last week's unfortunate QOTW.
