Welcome back folks! This week we're continuing our coverage of the 2010 run of Uncanny X-Force. We start with a totally inappropriate jumpin on point with issue 5.1, and then we get to the real meat of the series, issues 5, 6, and 7. Enjoy! Reminder that you can read along with and ahead of the show by subscribing to Marvel Unlimited (we don't get paid for you doing that, so it's not an ad, it's j...

This week we sit down to talk about the most innovative shooter we've played in years. Our unnamed protagonist receives a weird program called superhot.exe, and when he launches it he connects to a very strange first person shooter where time only moves when the player moves. As we (and he) play this game, the hooks set in, and a larger conspiracy reveals itself. SUPERHOT is a small game with a bi...

This week's episodes: Cube Baby, Vade Retro, False PhD, and Tainted Judas

This week's episode is about Hidden Agenda, a really neat DOS game that is both too serious and too good to joke much about. It's a strategy game where you run a fictional post-revolutionary Central American country, making decisions that steer its development and inevitably piss off the people around you. So instead we talk about Gary's recent solo PRGE, and give some extremely belated takes on t...

This week we venture further into Nokron, the underground exile of the Nox people, who perfected a weapon to kill a god. This involves some detours through Ancestral Worshippers, and a brush with a strange levitating coffin, before we reach the Sacred Ground itself, overtaken by Silver Tears.

Messes just lead to more messes as Walt and Jesse continue to deal with the aftermath of their first cook. The biggest loose end is Krazy-8, chained to a post in Jesse's basement, with Walt looking for any reason to let him go. This episode has some of the most rivetting scenes in the series, along with one of the most embarrassing... Get out of here with that "soul" stuff. We would like to thank...

Kole, Ben, David, and Dennis talk about Persona 5 Royal, Walkabout Mini Golf, Dawncaster, and much more. The Grind: Ben: V Rising. Phasmophobia. Kole: Phasmophobia. Walkabout Mini Golf. David: Deep Rock Galactic. Dennis: Dawncaster. Fallout 3. Persona 5 Royal. The Multiplayer: What game or property do you want a survival horror version of? The End Boss: A Riven remake is on the way. Apparently Nas...

When they say nobody asked for this, that's Gary Butterfield erasure. I asked for this. I exist! I mean, sure, Adam Jensen is a pretty tough pill to swallow. He shaves his beard in an extremely obnoxious way. Further, this is clearly the middle chapter of a prequel trilogy, which might be the most direct recipe for an unimportant narrative. However....however.... All of the above, plus a regrettab...

Sometimes it takes a Geekwad to save a kingdom. So we must venture back in time to grab outdated stereotypes about nerds and put them to work. Wacky Funsters! is a minigame collection with a budget, an early 90s DOS game that was probably sold in Office Max stores until 2005. And it gets us talking about all of the other not-quite-games that clogged the bargain bins, too.

This week's episodes: Fruity Plum, Plum Flute, Star Of Bethlehem, and Hollow Heart.

It's a shame when a great idea is wasted on a terrible execution. That's what happened with Michigan: Report from Hell. You play as a television camera man who is out with a team covering mysterious and violent incidents in Chicago as a strange fog rolls in. You shape the events through what you choose to film. Great idea, right? Too nothing about it holds together, leaving us with a clunky and aw...

Three days of physical and mental unrest have sent a man to seek sanctuary at the services of the Cathedral of St. Barnabé. But far from being able to escape his problems, he finds himself pursued by an unearthly church organist all across Paris to his own home, unable to escape that which hunts for his very soul. "In the Court of the Dragon" is the third story from The King in Yellow by Robert W....

At long last, we can continue with Ranni's work now that the stars have moved again... and punched a big ol' hole in Limgrave. Big enough that we can get into the previously inaccessible Eternal City of Nokron. Here, we seek out the blasphemous treasure of the Nox, and see a little bit of the mad science they were doing in order to supplant the Golden Order.

Hello! It's time to get all your friends into Days of Future Cast because we've got an old fashioned jumping on point for you today. We're talking about the 2010 Uncanny X-Force series by Rick Remender, an incredible comic that is a lot of fun to talk about. In this episode we cover the first four issues. Enjoy! Reminder that you can read along with and ahead of the show by subscribing to Marvel U...

Kole, Ben, David, and Dennis talk about Phantom Abyss, Tunic, Scorn, and much more! The Grind: Dennis: Phantom Abyss. Magic: The Gathering Arena. Kole: Scorn. David: Scorn. Deep Rock Galactic. Ben: Tunic. Satisfactory. The Multiplayer: Let’s talk about challenge runs! The End Boss: Square Enix trademarks “Symbiogenesis”. Streamer-funded Smash tournaments fill a void Nintendo isn’t interested in fi...

We've each had a Steam Deck for about a month, and we feel comfortable reporting... It's pretty great! This week's Topic has us discussing the Steam Deck in general, and how one should get into PC gaming in 2022. We also read your responses to October's games, which are Devotion, Strangeland, and the Evil Within 2. November's Games: Deus Ex: Mankind Divided SUPERHOT Half-Life: Alyx December's Game...

Things aren't going quite right for Jacob Singer. He's having flashbacks to the Vienam War and seeing demons all around him. Reality seems to be breaking down as he hops around in time. There's a truth he needs to face, and it might just take an angelic chiropractor to help him see it. Jacob's Ladder is one of the most influential horror films of all time, establishing psychological horror tropes...

This week's episodes: Tinytoma - Brimstone Bombs - 4.5 Volt - Tainted Cain

If I was a kid and I got a Muppet game where I couldn't play as Kermit, I'd be pissed. That's the world that Muppet Monster Adventure forces on us, one where people know who Robin the Frog is. The good Muppets have been kidnapped by an evil monster, and it's up to Robin to rescue them, maybe? This is a bog standard licensed platformer, and it's not especially terrible as those go.

This week's Roundtable Roundtable has a slightly different format, because we are featuring two audio interviews with guests alongside your responses to the Caelid region of Elden Ring! Our first guest needs almost no introduction. Iron Pineapple is a popular YouTuber who makes funny and insightful videos about From Software games. You've probably seen his videos about the glut of Soulsborne games...

So you make some very good product, and through no fault of your own you end up with one and a half dead bodies. A worse show would make the bodies disappear conveniently. However, Breaking Bad is about two people who are inept at crime getting into their own way. Walt and Jesse are ready to go their separate ways, but first they have to split the duties of dealing with Emilio (deceased) and Krazy...

Kole, Ben, David, and Dennis talk about Scorn, Outer Wilds, Echoes of the Eye, Slay the Spire: Downfall, and much more! The Grind: David: Deathloop. Deep Rock Galactic. Dennis: Deep Rock Galactic. Slay the Spire: Downfall Mod. Rabbids: Party of Legends. Ben: Outer Wilds: Echoes of the Eye. Tunic. Kole: Scorn. The Multiplayer: What games handle grinding the best? The End Boss: Bayonetta 3 voiceover...

Warning: Fluid chat! It's sort of like limbo, in that you're seeing how low you can go but instead seeing how divorced a grizzled dadtagonist can get. This is a good ass game despite a nonsense story. The biggest issue is it throws away it's biggest strength half way through, pulling you out of the genuinely innovative semi open world stealth and into a series of MindRealms(tm). Still, the play is...

One of the major dividing lines in video game history is when optical media became cheaper and more plentiful. That brought great stuff like Myst, and a few great FMV games... but it also brought us stuff like "Who Shot Johnny Rock?", a terrible FMV shooting game that's based entirely on fakeouts. Also, Gary torments Kole with a description of a segment from the Tales of the Darkside movie.

This week's episode: We're in a corn maze! (And we talk about Magic Skin, Revelation, Consolation Prize, and Polished Bone.)
