Ep. 697 – Vortex

Vortex! Does it sound cool? Sorta! (In a 90s way) Was it fun? Define fun! Did it have an interesting history? Absolutely! The Randomizer dealt us an odd one with week with Vortex, a game none of us had heard of or seen. It was interesting and certainly has a place in the history of video games, along with it’s creator. So in addition to all things Vortex, we talk about Uno, Mario Party, and lots of anime – of course, there is also a draft! So please, come sit awhile and listen to Vortex.

Vortex Shownotes:

Tyler bought another copy of Illusion of Gaia for Dave.
Uno ruins friendships.
Ian endorses Mario Party.
We all have now seen and love Golden Boy.
My Hero Academia is something Ian didn’t expect to like.
Fairy Tale was one Tyler couldn’t have with.
Dave is all about that Trigun Stampede.
And the original Trigun.
OlliOlli World comes recommended by Dave.
Dexter The New Blood is a great conclusion to the series.
YOU’RE REDDER THAN A STRAWBRAIRY!
STOP LOOKING AT ME SWAN!
Have you seen X on the Game Boy?
Was it an American Werewolf in Paris?
Or was it an American Werewolf in London?

Ep. 690 – The Irem Skins Game

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

The Irem Skins Game is totally a golf game and not something else, we were also very confused when we heard the title. Not many games have the developer and a mode as their title (which irem loves their name so much it is on the box art twice) so it sounds a bit odd. But hey! Golf game? Have we done a pure golf game before? You’d be surprised. Come hear us do a sandwich draft, open a wonderful package, talk horror, talk food, and talk a great deal about The Irem Skins Game.

The Irem Skins Game Shownotes:

ApesInCapes is amazing.
Oh Final Fantasy XI.
Dorf on Golf.
I have to include Caddyshack.
Well, it’s sort of like Ant Man.
Those Lemon Cookies.
Ian watched The Sinner
Smile was deemed okay.
Black Panther was Ian’s Pick of the Week.
Poor Dave must have a root canal.
Lou Malanati Pizza.
Portillos Hot Dogs.
1408 was a great movie.
I hope you don’t fall into The Backrooms.
Dave is enjoying Marvel Snap.
Tyler was shown Mercy in L.A. Noire’s driving levels.
STAY OUT OF IT, NICK LASHEY.
THE WATCHER, UATU.
Were you familiar with White Tiger?

Ep. 689 – Tom and Jerry

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Tom and Jerry. You know, you’ve seen the cartoon. Sometimes Tom looks like a cat, other times he is more like a cat person. Sometimes Tom and Jerry hate each other, sometimes they are best friends. They’re a duo that has endured since 1940. But how well do they translate to the SNES? Courtesy of The Randomizer, we find out. So please come check out a cartoon draft, the latest edition of Ian’s Horror Hole, a deep review of Sam’s Club pizza, and a reveal to who absolutely loves The Croods. Sit awhile and listen!

Tom and Jerry Shownotes:

The Titans show.
Ian approves of Pennyworth.
He also likes Doom Patrol.
Lots of info on the Into the Dark series.
Machete had to become real.
Pilgrim, for some Thanksgiving horror.
A nasty piece of work.
Have you seen Ready or Not?
Well, I’m curious about Pooka.
I’m also curious about Pooka 2.
Dave loved Barbarian.
Sam’s Club may have the best pizza deal.
Weird: The Al Yankovic story was great.
Did you see that scene in Equus?
Ed Grimley actually had a cartoon.
Camp Candy was phenomenal.
The very prolific Chuck Jones.
We did that episode over Porky Pig’s Haunted Holiday.

Ep. 687 – Stone Protectors

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Stone Protectors! Do you recall this 1993 SMASH hit cartoon that aired 8 episodes and tried to combine the troll doll craze with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle craze? No?! But it even had a Super Nintendo release! Still no?! Well, neither did we so we all played it and do a pretty deep dive into it. We had to start with the new tradition of some sort of food draft – this time it’s cookies! So we did that, visited Ian’s Horror Hole, discussed some games we had played, Ian reveals to use there is a Criterion Collection Streaming Service, and end with a binge of all the (now long expired) food that everyone has sent in to us. So please come sit awhile and listen to three white guys talk about things!

Stone Protectors Shownotes:

Gonjiam Haunted Asylum!
Everyone loved Gangs of New York.
Tyler highly recommends Spoils of Babylon.
Ian recommends Terrifier
He also recommends Terrifier 2.
But he does not recommend Dash Cam.
Dave speaks highly of Chainsaw Man.
Have you seen Cabin Fever?
We didn’t mean Cabin Boy.
The Five Greatest Rappers of all time.
WHAT THE GOLF?!
That stupid basketball section of Dead Space.
Spy x Family also gets a recommend.
Did you see the Simpson’s Death Note?
IT’S PIG NEWTONS, DAVE!
Little Shop of Horrors
We all loved Dr. Katz.

Ep. 686 – The Wizard of Oz

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

The Wizard of Oz for the SNES continues our parade of hard to play games. Does this deserve to be one those iconically horrible games ranking up there with Shaq Fu, Bebe’s Kids, Lester the Unlikely, Bill Laimbeer’s Combat Basketball, and Pit Fighter? We might tell you. Or we might even debate that amongst ourselves. But before that, we have to do a soda draft. Followed up by some horror chat, some great restaurants in the L.A. area where Dave got to visit, and Dane’s quiz returns with a vengeance. Come sit awhile and listen to use review the validity of the hot garbage label on The Wizard of Oz.

The Wizard of Oz Shownotes:

Hellraiser on Hulu get a good review from Ian.
However, Halloween Ends does not.
DADDY, WOULD YOU LIKE SOME SAUSAGE?
The best horror review of the week goes to Dead Stream.
So the trees always do that in Evil Dead NSFW?
The Host, but it’s horror and not from Stephanie Meyer.
It follows is about a supernatural STD.
SUPER PANGA TACOS!
El Matador was legit.
Mochi Nut donuts sound amazing.
Tyler is jealous over Dave eating some amazing Korean corn dogs.
Lavantina’s Big Cheese Pizza sounds great too.
Stella Jean’s ice cream is the place to go.
There was plenty of opportunity to play River City Girls.
Dave’s best anime review of the week goes to Chainsaw Man.
Ian and Tyler love the Broadway version of Wicked.
Not to say the Wicked book isn’t amazing too.
Is this game worse than King Arthur and the Knights of Justice?
We did an episode over Shaq Fu.
Also, Bebe’s Kids.
Just for the cherry, check out Bill Laimbeer’s Combat Basketball.
