Garbage Game Night - 049 - Bionic Commando (2009) (PC) | VIRAL EDITION
play

09/30/21 • 120 min

The classic retro franchise Bionic Commando has been given the gritty reboot treatment! The gang GRAPPLES with the new super power of a bionic arm, tries to get a HANDLE on the web-slinging, and tries to GRASP the subtle plot twist. Were the critics wrong? or were they all RIGHT. He's got a bionic left arm, if that's not clear, but he's also got a bad attitude. We discuss how to ruin a super-hero 'what-if's, Burger King, and better 2009 games w/ Frank, Tom, Victor and Chris.

In a double-header, the gang tackles two games from 1994 that fuse ROCK N' ROLL with video games. First, we take a look at a 3DO game called 'Virtuoso' in which 'Our Hero', a rockstar, uses a virtual reality headset to escape the fandom you experience every moment of every day. With absolutely nothing at stake, we explore the power of the 3DO, discuss what the hell a 3DO is, and doom-clones in our the first half of our podcast.

In the second half of our podcast we launch into something with a little more meat, the arcade light-gun shooter Revolution X. What was originally going to be a Jurassic Park shooter was transformed into a fully-backed Aerosmith tie-in. We watch some behind the scenes videos of Aerosmith recording the digitized footage for this game, whether Aerosmith is the right band to save us from a neo-industrial corporate militaristic empire and how arcade games port to console.

It's Guess Who, but it's got a sexually implicit name and is maybe a commentary on capital punishment? Frank hosts this 2015 game by the team who brought you Super Meatboy and The Binding of Isaac is... a game... We discuss the difficulty of discerning what things are 'not gross' in this art style, kill a lot of people, Frank gives us stats on capital punishment and we meander into talk about Invincible and Justice League. This homage to Frank's finger tips leaves us thinking of newgrounds and ebaumsworld, but despite the fandom from Edmund Mcmillen the reviews aren't all good.

This week, we embark upon a mysterious reboot of a game with 2016's 'The Ship: Remasted'. We discuss social deduction games, cruise ships and micromanagement. Did the developers gambit of including 2016 candidates pay off? Or was it a sloppy remake of one of the earliest social games on Steam? Chris, Tom, Frank, Bob and Fredo dive in.
