Holiday break is over and the podcasters ARE MISSING!? 

Don't worry, the League of Kill-the-Podcasters is still grossly incompetent and hasn't succeeded just yet; the boys are just late coming back from vacation because they are sick with varying—possibly life-threatening—illnesses, THAT'S ALL! NO BIG DEAL! However, since it's valentines day and because they love you—their fans—SO MUCH they decided to stay strong and release this special GAMECORP+ mini-story bonus episode as their way of saying "Sorry we caught diseases, that was selfish of us." It's a bunch of hilarious tales about what happens when they're out sick and their co-workers have to fill in for them...creative, huh? Anyways... PRESS PLAY!

=--=◘ Social Stuff ◘=--=

WAZZZZZUUUUUPPPPP! It's that special time of year again, when the boss reverts to his glory days of being a 90s video game boss and forces the entire GAMECORP staff to pretend they're back in the age of Blockbuster, Polly Pocket, & All-Time-High-Murder-Rates. Ohhhh yeah, the Nineties! A decade filled with nostalgia of cheap toys, flashy merchandise, and unchecked consumerism. So, to celebrate the boys are gifting each other their most favorite, nostalgic, childhood games and talking about why they are so special to them. 

But, has the staff finally had enough of reliving the old days? Will the allure of modern slang and fiber internet speeds prove too tempting, and will the boss be overthrown out on his ass on Christmas? Well, you don't wait for Dec 25th to find out, because we are releasing this episode out early as our gift to you! You're welcome.. Yes yes.. we know, we are the best... Go ahead.. open it!

In this special-guest episode, we interview everyone's favorite dungeon-dwelling chiptune composer, and producer of this show's theme song, Metroyd Myk!! We talk about bands, music, life, love, EVERYTHING... and as punishment for his copious contributions to our listener question segment, we pull the reverse uno card and put HIM through a ringer of weird questions, absurd trivia, and some secret challenges you'll have to hear in the episode. 

The Boss is pitching a presentation for a new venture idea to the Shadow Council and the boys need to help him answer that age old debate: Dinosaurs or College Students. We're not quite sure what that age old question is.. but we're running these two game through the head2head gauntlet to determine, which is the most exploitable, most destructive, and most profitable business model to base our new amusement park off of. And if you think this episode can't get any weirder... well you bet Jur-ass-it-can. That joke works way better when said outloud. Anyways, tune into the episode, we interview some crazy characters, discuss equine edibles and talk about ALF for probably way too long. Remember Alf? He's back.. in podcast form.

After years of teasing and tempting the fates, it's finally happening. We are covering Bayonetta!

ROCK N STONE!! We're digging into the vast wonders of this goofy multiplayer mining game, to see if it's really is a diamond-in-the-rough within the 4-player co-op swarm-fighting genre, compared games like Vermintide and Back 4 Blood. Meanwhile, the boys catch a rumor from our new dwarf buddy, Ol' Tom One-Eye, that there may be vast riches waiting to be excavated beneath GAMECORP.  But it's not as easy as Minecraft makes it seem, with a bureaucratic nightmare of regulations, approvals, and requisitions awaiting the boys, will they be able to unearth the riches they seek  or be doom to work at GAMECORP forever!? I mean.. GET TO.. get to work at GAMECORP forever. Whew... now press play.

Love is war, and war is kinky! That's why were pitting these two infamously sleazy games against each other in a romantic yet vicious head2head battle to see which is the better degenerate material to idolize. 

And before you start throwing words around like 'pervert' and 'baka hentai', just know that it's all in the name of helping Luke get his groove back, as he's recently signed up for a video-game-character-only dating app and is back on his bullshit!... his 'bullshit' being trying to find love again. 

So, will Luke master the ways of seduction from our professors of persuasion... or will he be left-swiped into inceldom, doomed to be forever alone!?...No, I'm not gunna actually answer it in the description.. listen to the episode, dummy!

Do you miss the old days, when loincloth-clad barbarians and bull-nosed Minotaurs roam the lands and you could sink hours/quarters into arcade machines with your friends? Those were different days, you say? Well not anymore, cause today we are talking about cooperative, cabinet-bound, swords and sorcery with 3 classic fantasy button-mashing beat'em ups. Meanwhile, Professor Leviathan entrusts the boys with co-conspiration, when a man in black (possibly CIA, maybe interpol) comes snooping around GAMECORP on the hunt for someone involved with "The Red Dragon." So, if you happen to be nostalgic, retro, or a axe-totting dwarf, it'll be the perfect episode to get lost in.

Yo, what up young grasshoppers. Today's episode is all about fighting time... metaphorically, literally, figuratively, and seductively.

Now GAMECORP is locked in departmental power struggles while the podcasters are stuck right in the middle of it. And amidst all this chaos and combat, the boys have to ask themselves one question... 'Does Sifu kick ass or get old fast?'

Like calling-in-the-middle-of-the-night-and-just-breathing-into-the-reciever seriously! Then just to add to the phycological distress, this week's games are all about clashing cute and charming with an acute case of depression, in this battle for the title of: "Augury Of Disturbing Dissonance!"

In this episode we talkin': Professors Oak's real "poke-dex", Do gamer chairs cause divorce?, and Jake makes us play the Wish.com version of Trivia Questions.

🏆16-bit Robot-Blasting Run-N-Gun🏆
Robots! Love them or hate em... you gotta hate em. Luke's loneliness drives him to create little robot buddies to help around the office, but how many robots is too many robots? Six, probably.

In this episode we talkin': JB's Anti-Mister Rodger returns in the latest entry of the neighbor chronicle and we bust out some Reverse Review Trivia. We also find out the winner from last week's Audience Head2Head, "Which exploding enemy gets the title of best boom boy: Bob-ombs or Creepers?"

Now listen to the episode, before that robot from the future comes back in time to stop you from listening to the episode. What... it could happen!

=--=--=--=--=--=--=--=--

Everyone and everything you know and love will turn to dust and there is nothing you can do to stop it. Did you enjoy that? If you said yes, then you'll love this weeks games, that are all about the futility and misery of pursuing wealth, fame, and victory against an unstoppable tide of heartless AIs and RNGs. A spark can ignite the battle, but twin foes burn alike in the flames, in this moral combat for the title of: "Hope-Shattering Turn-Based Roguelike!"

Meanwhile, The Boss puts the podcasters in charge of taking his edgy apathetic Gen-z teen and teaching him that with great evil comes great responsibility. 

In this episode we talkin': One-Handed Game Design, The Tragedy of Darth Pippy Poop, and it's an All-Out-Brawl in 7 rounds of "Brawler Trivia". We also find out the winner from last week's Audience Head2Head, "Which is the more iconic rideable species: Chocobo vs Yoshis?"

Now listen to the episode, before the ceaseless march of time reclaims your frail body back into the sullen earth from whence... sorry, just go listen.

You ever secretly wanna trip a child? or Push the elderly into traffic? or Not return the grocery cart to the metal thingys!? Well then, you absolute abomination, do we got the games for you! It's monster mashup between two games that are all about being the badguy... duh! Watch the carnage and mayhem unfold in this battle for "Best Pixelated Reverse Horror Game!" 

Meanwhile, Jake learns how to get a decent french roast out of a bloodthirsty robotic coffee machine and JB unearths an abysmal horror from the depths of the breakroom fridge when he opens his long-lost leftovers that may as well be the start to Last of Us 3.

In this episode we talkin': Spiderman swinging under the influence, Biblical demo discs, and rippin' a fat stack of pepperonis. We also find out the winner from last week's Audience Head2Head, "Ghich AI character (that probably won't turn all skynet on your ass) would make the best Android companion?... Glados or Cortana?"

You know what's better than an all-expenses-paid trip to E3 with exclusive press VIP access!?... Do you!? Please tell me, I really need hope right now. Thanks to our lazy last episode we've been stripped of our golden tickets to E3 and banished to work a double shift in shipping! But relax, we still are bringing you two of the bumbliest, derpiest games in the battle for "Harbinger of Floppy Physics!". Meanwhile, a eccentric yet oddly pompous supervisor named Larry may just hold the keys to a wondrous secret at GameCorp and we discover friendship was the real treasure all along, but the REAL TREASURE all along was actual treasure.

In this episode we talkin': A memorandum to our E3 experiences, A wonderful game without borders, and The miracle story that is JB's Odyssey. We also find out the winner from last week's Audience Head2Head, "...What pikmin is best??.. Red, Blue, or Yellow." And with surprising results. Now play the episode or you get nothing, and you'll lose. Good day Sir.
