I know, I know haha. Fortunately, his game is a lot cooler than he is. We're talking Shadows of the Empire!I only got into Star Wars about 3 years ago, and once I saw the movies, I had to start playing the games. And I'm happy to say that, six games into the library, I haven't played a "bad" Star Wars video game yet. This one is probably the closest, but I don't think it's bad. It's just an early N64 game.This is one of our "stupid sexy sponsored" episodes, so said sponsor and long-time hot dog, PBRJax, swings by the show to explain why he's such a Dash fan. And then the Chewy to my Han Solo, my buddy Tyler, gives me a call to talk about how none of us can beat this fucking game.And before we save the galaxy, I use the force to summon another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week, someone asks what my favourite (and least favourite) video games shows/movies are. Should a parent let their kid beat them at video games? And when will I play Baldur's Gate 3!?!Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Star Wars heavyweights: Battlefront II, KOTOR II, and Jedi Outcast! Learn more about your ad choices.

I guess on the Game Boy Color... Whatever, Pokemon Trading Card Game is awesome!!I'd never played the Pokemon TCG until a couple weeks ago, and I completely fell in love with it. The spiciness of this take is up for debate, but I actually think I might like the card version of Pokemon more than the RPGs. I'm almost glad I didn't play this back in the day, because I might have a big collection of cards instead of a house right now.My buddy Keegs has been playing PTCG since the early days of the game, and he came by the show this week to talk about how fucking awesome the game is, and how rigged that damned coin is.And before we open some packs, I rip open another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week, we get into my hatred for Mallow. What do I play while I'm watching TV? And what's the real story behind the disappearance of the Koopa kids??Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

Maybe not from a Mario perspective. But from a platforming perspective? 10000%. We're taking another look at Yoshi's Island this week!I know some people hate on Baby Mario crying (I don't think it's THAT bad), but just about everything else this game does is spectacular. The platforming, graphics, soundtrack, level mechanics, and exploration are all top shelf, and it's actually one of the more challenging Nintendo platformers from back in the day, too.Pending RTG Hall of Famer, Mark McCue, is my guest this week, and we're taking a second look at the the second Mario World (don't fucking call it that, though). Let's toss some eggs.And before we eat everything, I puke up another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week, we talk about Xbox's commitment to backwards compatibility, and if they've taken their eyes off the prize. I answer a few questions about the business side of the show. And how is Mario RPG Remake treating me?Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 of the SNES's best: Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country, and Super Metroid! Learn more about your ad choices.

This might just be the funniest game ever made.And it's not only hilarious, but it's a serviceable RPG, too! I don't think there's enough meat on the bone here to satisfy diehard JRPG fans that don't know anything about South Park, but if you have even a passing interest in the show, I think The Stick of Truth is a must-play. It's like a season of the show was turned into a video game, and it's brilliant.My buddy Andre has been asking to come on the show to talk about The Stick of Truth for years, and the time has finally come. Call upon Paladin Butters, recruit Jimmy the Bard, and keep your eyes peeled for ManBearPig. I'm so fucking stoked for this episode!And before we fart on each other, I deliver another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week, we talk about the PS Plus price increase. Did Xbox fuck up by banning third-party controllers? And what is Thanksgiving like in Canada?Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

Not really. But these arcade crashers are winning me over, and Burnout: Revenge might just be the best one I've played so far!No story. No cutscenes. No car upgrades. Hell, no real cars haha. Just cause crashes, make them as big as possible, and do it again. I get why everyone likes this game so much now, I don't know how you couldn't!!Hot Dog extraordinaire ArcAngelOtaku sponsored this episode last year, and I'm so stoked to finally have a chance to ask him why this game means so much to him. And then my pal Joe gives me a call to talk about the Revenge of Burnout, and all 3 of us just end up laughing at how awesomely ridiculous this game is!And before we crash, I deliver another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week, someone asks what game settings I always change when starting a new game. What was my favourite cartoon growing up? And why do people hate on Resident Evil 5?? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too!

Does it suck today? Eh, maybe a little. But for so many of us, Captain Lou Albano will always be our Mario. I was always crushed when I'd turn it on and find stupid Link and his stupid "Excuuuuuse me, Princess" face. Fortunately, most days it was Mario and Luigi hanging out in their basement apartment/shop in front of a studio audience with celebrities, and that was followed by the sweetest cartoon ever drawn. The animation sucked, but whatever.My buddy Bradley McCue swings by the show this week, and despite the fact that we grew up watching this show in two totally different eras, we had a blast looking back on a massive part of our childhoods. Hey Pisanos! It's the Super Mario Bros. Super Show!And before we go plumbing, I deliver another edition of the Infamous Intro!This week, someone asks if I'd ever consider reviewing games from some of the lesser known retro consoles. What am I gonna play now that I'm done with Mario Wonder and Spider-Man 2?? And why do people like "war" games so much?Plus we play a rare round of 'Watch One, Remake One, Erase One', too!
