The Grand Theft Auto series is known for many controversial moments but there was only one that made us want to take all our clothes off. On today's bonus episode we talk about the infamous "Hot Coffee Mod" from GTA: San Andreas and its terrifying VR potential.

CAUTION - THOSE THAT ENTER THIS PODCAST EPISODE WILL BE SPOOKED ON SIGHT! If that warning didn't scare you away then you are brave enough to join us for our very first spooktacular Halloween episode. What horror games were the best? What moments scared us to death? Why is Kevin Spacey in a Call of Duty game? Trust us - you'll shudder once you hear all the answers. So enter if you dare and don't forget your flashlight. Trust us, strange things happen in the dork.

Boss battles come and go but only one has ever tried to question your gaming library while doing it. In today's bonus episode we shine the spotlight on "Psycho Mantis" from Metal Gear Solid and his unorthodox method of doxxing.

Sidekicks. They get in the way more than they get to the goal. They're like heroes... but not really. Video games are no different. Our digital journeys are filled with countless sidekicks, companions, simps - call them what you want - and they drive us crazy with ill-timed commentary, horrible aim and "block the doorway" physics. Why can't we get away from them? When will they get the hint that we aren't interested in them sexually? In today's episode we take the time to do extensive research on all of gaming's most popular NPCs. Are they helping us for the good of the mission or, as Mr. Durst would say, did they do it all for the nookie?

In 2021, Bill Gates got divorced. He now has an ex-wife. But before all that, in 2001 we were introduced to his first "X" and the video game that was destined to change the industry forever. In today's bonus episode we talk about our history with the flagship franchise of the original Xbox - HALO!

Mars and Hell have alot in common. Both are orange in appearance and can be annoyingly hot. Kind of like lasagna. But unlike that Italian dish, the other two were visited by bulky action heroes and at one point also contained the most coveted video game weapon of all time - the BFG. On today's episode, we went to Hell and back to bring you everything we know (and didn't want to know) about DOOM, the weapons, the games, the comic book and much more. So without further ado..."Rip & Tear"!

Winner of 3 Golden Globe Awards and 3 Academy Award nominations. You know the man. Now it's time to get to know his video games. On today's bonus episode, we take a deep dive in the gameography of Tom Cruise and every time he never showed up in them.

Let's be honest: fighting games suck. We can button mash & keep holding the block button all we want in Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat or some random one-off (see: this episode's title), but it's all BS. Honestly, who could stand there and take a 25 hit combo to the face and not be instantly dead? On today's episode we pause our game, check the moves list and get in the ring with some of gaming's most overrated and even unknown competitive fighters. The jig is up. The gloves are off. Who's got next?

Famous film critic Roger Ebert once declared that video games could never be art. But did he ever take in account if art could be video games? In today's episode we showcase two pieces of art that could very well prove Mr. Ebert wrong. (Also on YouTube - https://youtu.be/vFaqOpkp6KM)

The year is 1996. It is a blissful time of ALF, pogs and Tupac. However, a dark animal abuse simulator was on the horizon. It was Pokémania! But where do you even begin - the cards, the anime, the hundreds of video games? On today's episode, we'll expertly guide you through the entire Pokémon franchise as best we can. From Abra all the way to Zubat! And we won't even hide the fact that we would rather be talking about literally anything else. And we mean ANYTHING!
