Plotty Time

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch discuss the sort of but not really sequel to an on rails shooter game that we didn't all hate. This one isn't on rails, it's a first person shooter that takes place in Iraq and Nevada chasing down some kind of Alien life force that spawns super soldiers and OctoDogs. If that doesn't sounds awesome enough for you, you've got the wrong podcast. Get...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch speak the body electric with a game that spawned three sequels, yet none of us have ever heard of it before! It's honestly a concept we can really get behind because who wouldn't want to play the video game version of a Disaster Movie? Right?! Then make your Report... Your DISASTER REPORT!!! I'm sorry.  

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch gather round to talk about a vide game adaptation of one of the most ridiculous portrayals of gangs since Rebel without a cause or whatever 50s nonsense comes to mind. I'm sure that's what our audience thinks about. 50s greaser movies with weird clean cut bikers and dudes who liked leather jackets and cars or whatever. But yeah, some see the cool...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch wax a bit nostalgic about a game they spent a lot of time playing back in 2015 for like two years because obsessions are real problems and you just don't understand because games back then were totally different than now; they didn't yet know how to lock you in with seasons and events and- you know what. No. I'm not giving it anymore of my energy...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch dip their toes into a long and storied video game franchise for the second time with a game that was hastily put together as fast as they could and jammed into the cannon of a great trilogy as to completely overwhelmed their customers with franchise fatigue! Is it an Assassin's Creed game?  No. Is it a Far Cry Game? No... you aren't going to get...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch celebrate the last week of spooky season with the sequel to the game that we talked about last year. When I think of Halloween, I always think of Saw because like, 12 years ago these movies would come out every year for Halloween and as much as it pains me to celebrate marketing, it really wasn't Halloween without Saw! Come in and listen to us ta...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch get super duper spooky for the Halloween season when they talk about one of the most intense high steaks freak out gore fests with the only video game made by the residents of a haunted insane asylum! Of course we're talkin abou- wait... what is it? *checks notes*... really? The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie's Revenge? Fucking fine. 

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch finally come around to a franchise that includes a billion characters including a talking bear, a helpful Mole, a made up bird species, an evil witch, a shit talking good witch, and a ton of anthropomorphic animals that have all had enough of the evil with. Obviously it's Banjo Kazooie time!

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch gather round the campfire to talk about a game that was forged from the bones of the Half Life series that wanted to answer the question of "Should our game star an edgy teen who can't imagine being happy in life as someone who is differently able?" The question that no one asked is answered in Cry of Fear.

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch sit down at the table to talk about a throwback to the Panasonic 3DO days with a game that laid down some foundations for the survival horror genre before it was cool. This completely blood soaked bonkers inside-yo-mind horror experience is remembered as D! Just the Letter D! Not that "D". Get your mind out of the gutter.

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch finally come around after multiple fan requests to discuss this PS3 classic that is widely regarded as a critically acclaimed masterclass in storytelling where a post apocalyptic United States deals with the ever growing brain fungus infestation through a series of hope filled moonshots, cannibals, and child endangerment. The game is The Last of...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch show up to the table to talk about an underrated FPS with fantastical sword fighting elements, ancient Yokai lore, sexy assassins, comic book nerds, trickster demons, and so so much gunplay. We were excited to dive into the overlooked classic (maybe?) that is Shadow Warrior!

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch sit around the table and talk about a crazy fever dream of a survival horror experience that has really flown under the radar ever since its original release. Of course we are talking about the haunted orphanage movie where crayons are drawn on people, bullying is extremely intense and celebrated and the unluckiest girl in the world somehow survi...

This week Dr. Syintist is MIA, he gave us no details on where he was going, so we can't help but assume that he is heading into the jungles of South America to help kill a predator. While he's out Chump Slap and Poppascotch get together again to talk about The EWBU, or the extended Weekend at Bernie's Universe as we break down every film in the franchise (there are 2 of them) to revisit how strang...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch finally get it together enough to provide an analysis almost 2 years in the making. These clowns are finally covering the third installment of a fan favorite and beloved franchise that Sucker Punch refuses to continue to make money from by denying any future installments. Terrible business moves aside, we are talking about the majestic, the one,...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch dive back into the Call of Duty Catalog to talk about one of the most genre defining installments that... wait.... it's not Modern Warfare? Or Black Ops even? well which one- *checks notes* Advanced Warfare? The one with Kevin Spacey in it? really? Jesus. Well fine, hop on in here to listen to your 3 best friends talk about Call of Duty Advanced...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch convene to gab about a game where you play as a ghost detective working with a child medium that can see and speak to ghosts in order to solve your own murder by the hands of the infamous serial killer The Bell Killer! We've got psychic medium police consultants, stanzo brand fedoras, and a street tough tatt'd out ghost detective all taking place...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch show up to chat a bit about a PC game from back when Jurassic Park was still in theaters, Enter the WU-Tang (36 Chambers) was on every record store shelf, and no one knew or cared what a NFT was. We're kickin' it way back to talk about the PC point and click barely animated text game about time travel, protecting the world, and finding peace with...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch come together to talk about the second installment in one of the PlayStation 3's loudest and most prominent franchises that never even made it to the PlayStation 4 for some reason. Obviously we are talking about the Alternate timeline Sci-Fi Alien invasion virus transforming simulator Resistance 2!

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch come to the table to discuss one of the most notoriously bad video game stories of all time with the Navy Seal cold war terrorist swearing sim Rogue Warrior! I don't have a longer description because this game is pure trash. Come listen to us destroy it!

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch pull their chairs up to the table to talk about an under the radar game that tells us about a super secret CIA clean up man who accidentally finds a virus made of technology, then accidentally gets infected with it, and then learns how to use this techonovirus to magically summon a Glaive. Yes, like from the movie Krull. It's obviously time to ta...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch talk way too much about a third person cover based shooter starring the hottest Rapper of 2008, the one and only 50 Cent as he shoots his way through New York City in order to avenge his fallen brother K-Dog in the inner city DEA funded terrorism hodgepodge that is 50 Cent: Bulletproof!

This week Dr. Syintist was out on a religious journey and unfortunately could not attend during the recording. So with infinite topics and no adults in the room, Poppascotch and Sir Chump Slap thought it would be a good idea to talk about a Video game movie from 1994 that either no one remembers, or have completely deleted from their mind files. Join us as we take a walk into the absurd with the c...

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch come directly to you with the third installment of the Sci-Fi action explodin', alien dismemberin', biorecombinatin', multilateral single player co-op campaign with franchise killing levels of terrible microtransactions- where every single person that has ever played it said it was fine, but not the same.... so.... get excited for Dead Space 3!

This week Dr. Syintist, Chump Slap, and Poppascotch come to the table to discuss one of the most outrageous open world crime sims that ever existed! We've got gangs, drugs, frat drama, brand awareness and explicitly fun drug use with the always bonkers Saints Row 2!
