Back in the late 1990's, "Stealth Action" meant something entirely different than what we've come to know. But that didn't stop Eidetic's Syphon Filter from sprinting onto the scene and busting open an entirely new style of gameplay.

We're joined in studio by lifelong gamer and star of the Tubi original movie First Person Shooter Jeremy Walmsley to talk about Syphon Filter, as well as our histories with the stealth genre of video games in general. Where does Syphon Filter rank among the likes of Metal Gear Solid, or Splinter Cell?

We also provide some updates on Mikey's playthrough of Elden Ring!

Kirby's Adventure (NES) Retro Review

2 Recommendations

Nintendo fans, rejoice! It's the week of Kirby and the Forgotten Land, so this week we wanted to make sure we DIDN'T forget to focus on one of the most iconic video games of all time: Kirby's Adventure on the NES (Nintendo Entertainment System).

Kirby has proven to be one of our favourite gaming mascots. It's true: Mikey may still have a blood feud with the tiny pink deathball, but there's no denying that his gaming pedigree, particularly in the late 80's, early 90's, is almost unmatched.

Before setting off on Kirby's Adventure, we take some time to give our impressions of WWE 2K22, updates on Elden Ring, and more!

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.
