How do you follow in the footsteps of the man who built the ninth wonder of the world? Not by pissing in your own boots.

Brock gets tied up in a love triangle between two weirdos, and the boys hunt down the Phantom Space Man.

Imagine, if you will, a kind of battling toad. Nobody asked for this episode, we just felt like talking about it. Rare's darling baby that launched a thousand memes, about things ranging from its difficulty to its availability in stores. We don't care for it very much! But we only talk a little bit about why the game doesn't work, and spend most of our time talking about the Dark Queen's Pixar ass, horrible holiday memories, and comparative power ratings of the toad boys.

We've reached the end of our cut content series, for now. Dark Souls III went through some major changes, rumored to be caused by conflict between Miyazaki and Namco Bandai. But we may never know! What we DO know is that dedicated people like Lance McDonald have dug into the Alpha files for Dark Souls III and learned about not just cut features, but hints of a whole cut story.

Cate Archer is the grooviest spy that ever was, and she's on a mission to save the world from H.A.R.M. and their burping biological billionaire bombs. This cinematic first person shooter was ahead of its time, with snappy writing, intricate levels, and satisfying shooting. The only thing getting in the way is bad, punishing stealth. But for a game released in 2000, this is really impressive and worth checking out. Support Watch Out for Fireballs!...

This survival horror/survival sim set in an arctic base is notable for one reason: It was made entirely in Blender, which is not a game engine. It would be like somehow making a JRPG run in MS Paint. Other than that, it's got a baffling "barely translated" charm... so instead, we talk about how Gary recently developed hypothermia in his house.

This is it, the last in our series covering Lovecraft screen adaptations. The H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society undertook the impossible task of bringing Lovecraft's most famous story to the screen, and they managed to succeed even with one hand tied behind their back. This silent film is riveting to watch, which is a real accomplishment all on its own.

We need to re-calibrate what constitutes an "Abject Suffering Emergency". It's hard to tell how earnest the Whiteboyz Wit' Attitude are. On one hand, the music is pretty bad and farcical, but on the other hand, they've been at it for many years. This Steam game is a gussied up sales pitch for their compilation album, featuring some limited rhythm gameplay set to their low production value videos.

This week we talk about the things that didn't make it into Bloodborne, alongside some stuff that DID make it in... but is very well hidden. Even though Bloodborne is its own thing, it didn't manage to escape the classic FromSoft reshuffling, which massively changed its story and the roles of particular characters. Thanks to the work of a number of content creators, we have some insight into what might have been.
