As Sonic the Hedgehog 2 speeds into theatres, we figured we'd take the chance to LOOP back to Sonic 2 on the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive!

Way back in this podcast's history we revisited Sonic 1, and our feelings were somewhat mixed. Will the addition of the spin dash, faster speeds, and the loveable sidekick Miles "Tails" Prower be enough to make this a bona fide classic? Our knuckles are clenched as we aim to find out!

But before we set foot in Emerald Hill Zone, we take some time to catch up on MLB The Show 22, Elden Ring, and talk about the incredible development cycle that went into Sonic 2.

What makes MVP Baseball 2005 the UNANIMOUS choice for best baseball video game of all time?

This week, with the launch of MLB The Show 22 we aim to find out! When it comes to other sports, there's major debate over which year or series has the greatest entry, but with the MLB games it's hard to argue that MVP Baseball 2005 isn't the greatest entry ever.

But before we take to the diamond, we unload our thoughts on the world of sports videogames. Which sports translate most accurately to gaming? Which make the most fun games? Be a Pro versus franchise mode? How do we handle created characters?

We also give a quick update on our progress with Elden Ring and the recent release of MLB The Show 22.

Mosquitos have brought a lot of suffering to the world, but 20 years ago, the adorable Mister Mosquito flew onto the gaming scene and brought with it a taste of gaming "weirdness" which seems to be lacking in 2022.

It was a game that left a huge impression on Mikey back when it first came out, but does it still hold up all these years later? We boot out our PS2 to find out!

But before we stalk another innocent family, we catch up on the other games we've been playing, and list off some of the strangest games we've ever experienced.
