    Episode #74 - Mario Kartography

    The year is 1997. Mother Teresa is still partying past midnight. "Titanic" became the first hit movie to have a guy fall on a boat propeller. And a new kart racing video game just broke our brains. MARIO KART 64 was truly groundbreaking in its gameplay and physics. Unfortunately, none of that matters because we only want to study the maps! Every gamer's favorite topic is cartography, right? Good, because we critiqued the layouts of all 16 courses. Which ones made us sick? Which ones do we think should be gay icons? Do we actually know what cartography is or did we use it because "cart" is in there? We'll never tell but we'll also use red shells on you if you don't listen!

    OMGame Boy #60 "Bird Call of Duty"

    Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! Wait, forget it, everyone go home. It's just a bird. And it looks like they're made of either pixels or polygons. That's weird but also makes total sense. Ever since the early 80s, birds of every kind have shown up in a video game and they are only going to keep showing up so why fight it? On today's bonus episode, we flock like birds of a feather and squawk about every kind of bird that showed up in a game. From the 1982 arcade game Joust (you ride a bird!), to Tony Hawk Pro Skater (a human named after a bird!) all the way to the present with Horizon Zero Dawn (metal af birds!). Let's go ruffle some feathers!

    Episode #73 - Controller? I Hardly Know Her!

    What do Rodney Dangerfield and a limited edition Wu-Tang Clan video game controller from 1999 have in common? If you said a rap album, you are absolutely sort of correct (look up "Rappin Rodney" ASAP). But how about lack of respect! Rodney Dangerfield never got it and that abomination of a controller never got it either. Some video game controllers were too ambitious for their own good and didn't get any respect so we decided to finally change all of that. On today's episode, we take a look at controllers from Atari all the way to PlayStation 5 and we put them through the ringer. Loosen your necktie, folks, because we're doing it all with the help of everyone's favorite comedian born in 1921!

    OMGame Boy #59 "Metal Beer Solid"

    The two taglines for the 1988 Tom Cruise movie Cocktail were "They thought he was good, they were wrong...he was the best" and "When he pours, he reigns". I don't know about you but if I had to pick one video game franchise those can also apply to is METAL GEAR SOLID. Think about it - Solid Snake is the best at what he does AND he is always pouring shots, be it from the gun variety but still. So has anyone ever thought to combine these two? On today's bonus episode, we stealthily create alcoholic drinks inspired by the most stealthy PlayStation game series. If you thought a Nuclear-equipped walking battle tank was scary, just wait until you see the ABV on some of these drinks!

    Behind The Cutscenes: Six Year Anniversary Special

    In 2019, our gaming podcast for people who hate gaming podcasts started. In the six years since, we've endured numerous break-ups, weird medical issues, turning 40 years old, disappointing download numbers, enemies turning into fans, followers blocking us on social media, botched Sonic the Hedgehog cookies, and one occasion of iHeartRadio accidentally putting us in their Instagram story. So how do we celebrate all these accomplishments? Back in June, we were interviewed by Ashton from the "Podcurious" podcast about our show - how it got started, our process, etc. It is probably the only time we talked sincerely about this weird monster we've created so enjoy our episode...of his episode!

    Episode #72 - Mashin': Impossible

    The Mission: Impossible movies have Tom Cruise saving the world by doing insane stunts. From hanging on a plane, to driving a motorcycle off a cliff, there is nothing crazier than what he's done. But has he ever had to press buttons in a timed order just to beat a giant Hydra? Or has he ever had to constantly button mash furiously until his thumbs hurt just to get away from a PS2 style boulder? I thought not. Tom Cruise has never faced a video game QUICK TIME EVENT and thank God, because they are terrible. And terribly funny! On today's episode we look at 30+ years of QTEs and pick out our favorites and funniest. Get ready for a Mashin': Impossible, agent. This episode will self destruct in five seconds.

    OMGame Boy #58 "Game Over/Under"

    As a '90s kid, there was nothing more important than playing video games. The only catch was that you had to rely on dumb parents to buy them for you. Why wouldn't these stinky adults just give me their stupid credit card like I asked? Was affording all these games and consoles that much of a hassle? How high (or low?) did these things cost? Wait...were my mom and dad secretly poor? On today's bonus episode, we deal with 30+ years of pettiness as well as the topical subject of inflation by chatting about video game prices from the 1990s. It's Game Over/Under time!

    Episode #71 - Magical Mystery Tier

    Did you know that we have a lot in common with The Beatles? We have accents and definitely have compared ourselves to Jesus at least once. But besides that, we also like tours of the magical mystery variety. Except this time instead of a tour it's a tier as in "tier ranking". That's right - we finally decided to rank video games the way people rank Beatles members' hair (Ringo is S tier). So what video game franchises did we choose? Welcome to the "Magical Mystery Tier" where what you want and what you get are two completely different things. Just like Beatles songs! So strap on your guitar, start dating a woman named Yoko, and join us for a weird tour across gaming! Check out the video of our tier ranking! https://youtu.be/e44iMRwwHoI?si=V9bmvfmUJsR0gpTt
