EPISODE 26: GHOSTBUSTERS
07/17/16 • 40 min
We came. We saw. We kicked its...Well, you know.
In 1984, GHOSTBUSTERS left an indelible, Mr. Stay Pufft-sized, footprint on comedy/adventure movies. With the new 2016 Ghostbusters finally out, this seemed like a good time to revisit the 1985 Activision take on the Ghostbusters universe. Does the game live up to the film? To find out, who you gonna call?
PODCASTERS!
(The management requests that you please don't slime the podcasters)

EPISODE 25: BURGERTIME
BURGERTIME was one of my favorite video games as a kid...when it was on the Intellivision.
But no matter! Atari Burgertime is cool too! Homicidal human-sized hot dogs, massive walking eggs and severely erect breadsticks want to kill our man Chef Peter Pepper, apparently, because he keeps walking all over the giant hamburgers this restaurant serves. As the chef, armed only with a pepper shaker and, we're guessing, clogged arteries, you have to dodge the junk food and stay alive long enough to finish building your hamburgers. It's DELICIOUS fun!

EPISODE 27: STAR TREK: STRATEGIC OPERATIONS SIMULATOR
This week on the podcast, we boldly bravely cluelessly go where no one has gone before!
That's right, in honor of the new Trek film out this summer, Star Trek: Beyond, we slingshot around the sun to go back in time to 1983 and check out the Sega game STAR TREK: STRATEGIC OPERATIONS SIMULATOR. So beam yourself up to this episode and enjoy it at warp factor 10.*
*I'm stopping here to avoid any more Trek references. It's the logical thing to do. (Darn it!)
