We're taking on the remake of the first game in the Yakuza series this time, with Yakuza Kiwami - a Patron requested episode!

We haven't done many PC games, but we're delving the deep dungeons under Tristam in this patron requested show all about the original Diablo! While there is a passable Playstation port, the PC was the best way to play this game - but does it still hold up after 3 sequels and almost 30 years?  We played it again to see.

Virtual Bart was the sequel to Bart's Nightmare, which we reviewed last year, and is a collection of loosely connected mini-games where you play as Bart, Baby Bart, Dinosaur Bart, and even Pig Bart.  Is this better than Bart's Nightmare or just another one?

To kick off D'OH-vember 2025, we're taking a look at the first console game for the show - Bart vs the Space Mutants for the NES! This game is notoriously not one a lot of people enjoy, but it sold really well and led to a whole slew of other games - so let's try it again to see if this game really deserves it's bad reputation or a second chance.

We know that remake is not technically a classic retro game, however it's the only way you can play the original House of the Dead outside of finding an arcade game someplace or a buddy with a Saturn, and it's available on all current systems!  So, we played it to let you know if this would be a good Halloween treat, or a mean Halloween trick!
