They Daydreamcast bares it all. "It" being their love for Ratchet & Clank. In this episode Bro and Murph talk guns, big guns, and guns that transform once you've committed enough murder. Even before the main topic, Bro will talk some retro-inspired shooters and Murph enters the world of Tomb Raider spin-offs.TIMESTAMPS00:38 - New Daydreamcast LoreWatcha Playin'02:11 - Big Walk (2026)14:29 - Endocopia (2026)19:50 - Enter the Chronosphere (2026)24:56 - Quake: Dawn of the Machine (2026)33:57 - Tomb Raider: The Nightmare Stone (2000)42:43 - Agent 64: Spies Never Die (2026)Variety Minute48:30 - Guns in GamesGames of the Week1:04:25 - Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando1:43:35 - Plugs & Farewells

If you've been to an arcade, you know Metal Slug, and if you were on Newgrounds, you know Alien Hominid. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, meaning the early flash game scene of the 2000s was flatter than a plateau. Bro and Murph pit these two run-and-gunners head to see which does the ultra violent gonzo action slapstick schtick better. Who reigns supreme? SNK at the top of their game, or the scrappy animators from the interwebs trying to recreate what they love about Metal Slug?TIMESTAMPS00:43 - The Most Put Off Head to Head.Watcha Playin'01:23 - Resident Evil: Requiem (2026)24:24 - Blasphemous 2: The Third Sin & Mea Culpa (2026) 34:07 - Love Eternal (2026)42:59 - The Adventures of Elliot (2026)49:53 - Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation (1999)Variety Minute1:00:55 - Run n' Gun GamesGames of the Week1:18:41 - Metal Slug 3 (2000)1:34:15 - Alien Hominid (2002)1:30:56 - Plugs & Farewells

This episode is a barrel roll of laughs and technical difficulties, but that won't stop the boys in the Satellite of Dreams from gushing about the oft-remade classic that is Star Fox 64. Combining short play times, punchy lightgun gameplay, and a branching narrative, Star Fox 64 remains one of THE games of the Nintendo 64 (and the 3DS, and the Wii U, and the Switch 2). Is there truly a secret sauce to this story of star furries? How much love does Brogan have for Bill, the dog?

In the wake of 007: First Light, Brogan and Murph jump back to 2005 to experience the last time we were between Bonds and games had to make due. The solution for From Russia With Love was to go back to the OG martini shaker by recruiting Sir Sean Connery himself to reprise his favorite (and arguably best) performance as 007. Unfortunately, this also means that it's a 2005 video game adaptation of a 1960's spy film starring an 80 year-old man, creating one of the odder artifacts of the Bond franchise.TIMESTAMPS00:28 - The Perfect Sean Connery ImpersonationWatcha Playin'02:35 - Mina the Hollower (2026)16:04 - Mixtape (2026)26:45 - Zero Parades for Dead Spies (2026)35:39 - Dispatch(?)

Murph gets his freak on with guest host Stephen so he can finally talk about the best 7/10 AAA-Mid game: Days Gone. Once a showcloser for Sony's 2018 E3 showcase, Days Gone is already slipping from public consciousness. It's a crude, generic open-world zombie survival game about a sad white man...and yet there's something special about it (at least Murph thinks that). At very least it has the Sawmill Horde fight.TIMESTAMPS00:41 - The Cold OpenWatcha Playin'03:09 - Marathon (2026)18:55 - Echo Point Nova (2024)27:10 - Titanium Court (2026)38:20 - 007: First Light (2026)51:00 - Tomb Raider Minute: Tomb Raider III (1998)Variety Minute1:01:15 - AAA Open-World GamesGame of the Week1:23:25 - Days Gone (2019)2:04:28 - Plugs & Farewells

Daydreamcast is here to make your legs quake and make you go crazy. We drop into id Software's first 3D shooter following their success with DOOM. The name Quake is known far and wide in the annals of Boomer Shooterdom, but it's never enjoyed a contemporary revival like it's older siblings DOOM and Wolfenstein have. Is there a reason it's churning madness of speed, gothism, and explosions has been left behind?TIMESTAMPS00:41 - BTW Daydreamcast passed 100 episodesWatcha Playin'01:32 - Super Meatboy 3D (2026)08:49 - Poke All Toads (2026)11:46 - Jason Vorhees in Dead By Daylight (2026)22:42 - Alex in Street Fighter 6 (2026)33:03 - My Hero: Ultra Rumble (2023)42:48 - Mass Effect: Legendary Edition (2021)51:53 - Tomb Raider Minute: Tomb Raider II (1997)Variety Minute1:03:30 - Modern Boomer ShootersGame of the Week1:20:20 - Quake (1996)1:53:57 - Plugs & Farewells

Murph's been acting a little funny since coming back from Antarctica (and not haha funny). Brogan decides to test his humanity by talking about The Thing video game from 2002. Yes, there is a game based on The Thing and it's the official sequel to the film as sanctioned by Gamer™ John Carpenter himself. Also being put under the microscope is the 2nd season of the Fallout TV show, Hades 2, and the introduction of the Tomb Raider Minute!TIMESTAMPS00:41 - Is Murph a The Thing?Watcha Playin'01:33 - Fallout Season 2(2025)12:04 - Hades 2 (2025)16:12 - Resident Evil 9: Requiem (2025)22:51 - The Tomb Raider Minute: Tomb Raider 1 (1996)Variety Minute36:18 - The Thing Film (1982)Game of the Week55:15 - The Thing Game (2002)1:20:03 - Plugs & Farewells

Brogan is contacted by a mysterious entity originating from the South Pole. Murph is back and he wants to talk about Mario's second handheld adventure Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins. This charming platformer doesn't have many elements that stuck with the Mario franchise, but the most enduring is the introduction of Mario's evil doppleganger, Wario!
