Much like Thanos, this episode was inevitable. Proper pronunciation be damned, we all know how we'd say this game's name. It only seems fitting, then, that the home of Gorp the Eggplant Dragon give it a dedicated review. Join us as we welcome Coury of My Life in Gaming to the show to discuss 5 stages of roundhouse kickin'.

The next Patron-selected Top 5 topic is here, and that means it's time for us to weeb out about which of the many JRPG weapons out there we would like in our homes. The definition of "weapon" might have gotten stretched a bit by someone, but our lawyer advised us to claim that fault lies entirely with the Patrons' lack of specificity.

The next Patron-proposed, Patron-selected Top 5 showdown is here, and this one finds us ranking the games within the games: our personal selections for the best diversions that probably distracted us from the actual game for far too long.

Since the turtle boys what cut 'em no slack are back in the news with the recent release of Shredder's Revenge, we thought we ought to go back and take a look at Konami's NES port of their smash hit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade brawler. Let's... Just say that we're both real glad Turtles in Time exists.

We suppose the title of this implies we have some modicum of shame... We think you'll find that to be a lie. But if we were to feel guilty about some of our choices, these would be it.

We are super psyched to put this one out there for you beautiful people. We had the opportunity to sit down with Andy from Mega Cat Studios and chat about the most excellent work they do developing and releasing original titles for retro systems like the NES and Genesis, along with the myriad other projects they have in their repertoire. We had a lot of fun with this one, and we think you will too!

We wrap up Spooptober with a doozy. Not only are we talking about a notoriously tough as nails platformer, Ghouls 'n Ghosts, but we are also joined by singer / songwriter / self-professed Genesis fangirl Saniyé! When the kingdom doth get yeeted, shall Arthur saveth it from certain doom? (Hint: highly unlikely since most of us can't beat this game).

Congratulations, you did the thing! Here's some celebratory music to mark the occasion. There sure are a lot of takes on the "level complete" tune, but only 5 could rise to the top and make it onto our personal lists for this latest Patron-selected episode topic. Come on in and do a little catjam.gif as we discuss the best of the best.
