Destroy All Children

After recording the regularly-scheduled Gremmies, everything somehow got even worse. So, here we are, ruminating on the impending demise of the AAA game industry, and running down Embracer Group's many and varied subsidiaries while trying to determine if they will survive or not. What, you think that's grim? Well, tough shit, that's reality, baby, and we're all livi

Now that the good is out of the way, it's time to talk about the worst that 2023 had to offer. And, oh boy, there was a LOT of shit.

It's that time again! Time for us to run down our Top Ten Games of da Year, including the recipients of the most Prestigious award in all of video games: the Golden Gizmo! After that, we run down the currently scheduled/hopeful titles of 2024 to find out what we're looking forward to. NOTE: I kept referring to Case of the Golden Idol as "Curse" of the Golden Idol

We're back, with our lists of the TOP FIVE best games of 2022! If you still had this subscription in your RSS feeds or whatever, uhhh, sorry! But we had to deal with this depressing-ass year and a dearth of quality content, so now it's your problem too. This year, the Gizmos and Gremmies are released as one episode because, honestly, we had a lot of overlap in the Gizmos and there

This is it! The end of the most celebrated video game/Star Track/gremlins-focused podcast in existence. With all our enemies dead, we celebrate our victory and discuss The Matrix Resurrections. Then, the final Retro Corner: The Pagemaster for the Sega Genesis. Look, I don't know, it seems anticlimactic to me too, but George seems to think it makes sense. It subverted your expectati

It's time for our annual celebration of the best video games of the year! In addition to the main Gizmos, we also name our Best Re-Make/Re-Models, and Best New Characters. Next week: THE END.

Before we get to the Golden Gizmos next week, it's time to clear out the trash... The really rapey, gross trash... The Golden Gremmies are for the worst of the year, and oh boy, there was a lot of bad stuff in 2021! So sit back and... Enjoy? As we run down the Worst Games, Worst Developer, Worst Publisher, and Biggest Shitstorm of 2021.  Outro music: "I'll Still Destroy You" b

Halo Infinite is out! I've played it! The green boy is back in town! Anyway that doesn't matter, because we also watched Star Track: First Contact (1996), which takes up most of the time in this episode, and in Retro Corner, George is knocking out all da Marios: Super Mario All-Stars, Super Mario World, and Yoshi's Island. It was released as "Super Mario World 2" here, but we all k

With no new games out this week, I've continued my retreat into 2015's Mad Max game, and I'm gonna talk about it! Because fuck you! We also talk about Spiders-Mans (George was wrong about its release date, BY THE WAY), Stars Wars, and other assorted bull crap. The Sega Saturn version of Symphony of the Night, that's another one. Uhhhhhhh, probably something else. It don't matter. I

This week, we take a brief foray into the News, because we've unfortunately willed a Chrono Cross remake into this bitch of an Earth. Betty White, meanwhile, continues to live. Anyway, I give some brief thoughts on Call of Duty: Vanguard, we get a bit deeper into Shin Megami Tensei V, and then in Retro Corner, George talks about an all-time classic: VICE: Project DOOM for the NES.
