We've yet to see the true extent of Jonas Venture's bastardry, but this episode gives us some of our first peeks. The Venture Compound sits atop a massive tunnel complex where forgotten experiments have laid fallow, and it isn't until a drilling mishap that Rusty learns what's going on right beneath his feet. Can the Order of...

Knuckles' Chaotix is the only game that could possibly embody the sheer awkwardness of the Sega 32X. It stars Knuckles and his shitty friends as they attempt to stop Dr. Robotnik from doing something I guess. The problem is, Knuckles is bound to his co-op partner by a stretchy energy band, which makes doing "Sonic" stuff impo...

This is a different kind of episode for us, because instead of talking about one game in depth, we're looking back at all of the non-Souls games we've covered for the show and asking ourselves two questions: Would we recommend you play these today? And what element, mechanical or aesthetic, would you like to see someone take ...

The Stanley Parable is a short game with a lot to say about games. You play as Stanley, an office worker with a pointless job who finds himself being ordered around by an omniscient narrator. By deciding whether or not to obey him, you stumble into stories that critique and explore the nature of choice in games, and choice in...

It's rare to be surprised by a sci fi twist, and this AAA action adventure genuinely surprises. Throw in some engaging combat and not even an electronic T-Rex sized barrel of bloat can hold it back.
Thanks Doug!

Evan looks for a change of scenery, and finds a woman who is more complicated than he was bargaining for. This second episode by the directing duo of Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead does the seemingly impossible and mixes romance with Lovecraftian horror, and if I said any more here it would ruin the many surprises that are ...

Champions of Zulula is an amateur DOS fighting game where you play as any number of champions from strange, fantastical races like "Squid" and "Ostrich" who have gathered in Zulula to fight for supremacy. The game isn't very good, so instead we spend time clowning on ridiculous commercials from Gary's youth.
We discuss ...

Here we have one of the more unfortunate episodes of the Venture Bros., where the family heads to the rain forest and meets one of Rusty's old acquaintances. What ensues is some really weird, scattered, and icky sex and gender stuff that's also just not very funny!

A divine agent has gone rogue, taking the sacred texts with him and throwing the whole world into chaos. It's up to you to find him and stop the crisis in the most mind-numbing way possible.
Also, we talk about that time a car crashed into Gary's house at 3am.

This month's special topic is a discussion about RPG progression. What kinds of character upgrades are satisfying, which ones aren't, and why has there been a broader trend of games getting more bloated with bad RPG systems?
We also answer your questions, and read your responses to June's games: Hotline Miami, The Witne...

Dried fruit almost had a home in the NES in this mediocre platformer published by Capcom. The problem is, the popular California Raisins commercials, where sentient fruit performed Motown classics, cost more to produce than they generated in sales. So the California Raisins went away, and this game didn't see the light of day...
