This week we play games that we love. Nikki's lost her dream orbs and now she's gotta be a clownboy in Nights in to Dreams! It's a Mega Man world and Scrooge McDuck is just livin' in it when Matt plays Shovel Knight! And Cody throws himself through a blue hole and it's sadly not into the back of a whale like in my horrible dream... or in Portal 2!

This week we throw the reviews and upcomming games out the window and focus entirely of playing against each other (including special guest host Amby) in several multiplayer games. First we keep movin 'lest we die in the aptly named Move or Die! Next we try to stop each other from making it to the flag with cleverly placed stairs and black holes in Ultimate Chicken Horse. Then it's tanks, tanks, and more tanks in Shellshock Live! Finally we throw down in a seemingly never-ending smash bros. style battle royale in Stick Fight: The Game!

This week we take on Advergames! Matt drops the beats to drop some beasts in Skrillex Quest and then he weather a storm of bullets in Duty Calls! Cody gets to the headquarters of the red M&M in M&M Adventure, and then he ENTERS THE DORITO LOTUS in Dorito VR Battle!

This week we play SUPERHERO GAMES! Nikki reintroduces us to Lizzie and Dana and their incredible, riveting 12 issue arc in Maximum Carnage! Cody gives Wolverine a deep tissue massage, everyone's fondest wish, in Super Hero Squad! And Matt gets a YIN YANG BONUS, which is probably... good? In Batman Forever: The Arcade Game!

This week we judge games by their covers! Cody is Wink Ballfield, a man out of time and a man out of banjos, in Phalanx! Nikki punches down a brick wall but that's actually just a normal Friday Night for her, then she plays Brawl Brothers! And Matt has rippling muscles made only for octopi in The ULTIMATE Stuntman!

Forsooth, the Cartridge Blowers are playing MEDIEVAL games! Squire Matthew's soul shall beat the most vicious of babies in Hollow Knight! Sir Cody's game is a slow crawl towards boredom in King Arthur's World! And Lady Nicole must take on the greatest challenge of all: early 90s PC games in Get Medieval! All this and the best games of the year 2017.

This week is Secret Santa week! Matt gives Nikki the chance to send cars into the ocean just like the good book tells you to in Polybridge! Nikki gives Cody a ticket straight to Green Hill Zone by way of Mirror's Edge in Refunct! And Cody helps Matt to come to terms with his love of good good puns and good good puzzles in Escape Goat!

In today's episode of Cartridge Blowers, we play RACING GAMES! Cody avoids running into pancakes which is ludicrous because pancakes are delicious in Toy Box Turbos! And Matt gets sawed in half like a high speed magician in Distance.

This week, saddle up, pards! It's Wild West Week! Matt becomes the Super Ultra Sexy Hero in Rising Zan: The Samurai Gunman! Nikki gets buried with her money in Sunset Riders! And Cody gets blindsided by a surprising twist: a fun game! With Wild Guns! All this and Xenoblade Buttrock! It's rock!
