The boys are back! After a little (or maybe kind of long?) holiday break, Jurek and Earl are back and this episode they play Crossed Swords on the Neo Geo! This game is super weird! It's got RPG elements mixed with a Punch-Out type playstyle! The music is severely lacking, but the game ends up...
-
Episode 258: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 258 - Goofy's Hysterical History Tour
This week Earl and Jurek thought they were going to get their edu-tainment on, but were pleasantly surprised that Goofy's Hysterical History Tour for the Sega Genesis turned out to be a fairly decent platformer! Despite it's ridiculously long title and punishing difficulty, the game plays pretty...
-
Episode 257: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 257 - Twisted Metal
The boys are back! After an accidental hiatus, Jurek and Earl make a triumphant return by playing Twisted Metal on the Playstation 1!

-
Episode 253: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 253 - Magician Lord
This episode sees Jurek and Earl entering into the world of magic as they play Magician Lord on the Neo Geo! This is one of those rare games that neither of the guys had ever played before! It turns out that, just like almost every game they play, it's super hard! The guys don't get very far but...

This week Earl and Jurek play Operation Logic Bomb for the Super Nintendo! This is a game that neither of the guys have ever played before and it turns out they weren't missing much! The game plays well enough and the music is fine, but it's just a little boring. There are better "search and...
-
Episode 247: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 247 - Twinbee
This week Jurek and Earl take control of a couple of anthropomorphic air crafts as they play Twinbee on the NES! This game turns out to be pretty fun, only hampered by... you guessed it, the difficulty! Twinbee was extremely popular in Japan, but not so much in North America, so neither of the…

Episode 246: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 246 - Psycho Dream
This week Earl and Jurek play a little known game called Psycho Dream for the Super Nintendo!

This week Jurek and Earl harness their chi and whoop some 8-bit butt as they play Kung-Fu Heroes on the NES! This game turns out to be fairly fun, but suffers from the same thing as so many games of this era, the crushing difficulty! The guys couldn't even make it past level 1-4! They figured…
more -
Episode 244: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 244 - Mighty Bomb Jack
This week Earl and Jurek play Mighty Bomb Jack on the NES! What an odd little game! The movement takes a little getting used to, but it's surprisingly fluid for an early NES game! The game doesn't seem to be too difficult, but likely requires a great amount of memorization for some of the later...

This week Jurek and Earl go on yet another caveman romp as they play Prehistorik Man for the Super Nintendo! Very surprisingly, the game turns out to be pretty fun. While it was likely lost to the masses in the sea of generic SNES platformers, this game packs in a lot of charm! It's funny, the...

Hey Punks! Are you Tuff E Nuff to listen to a podcast where two dudes play Tuff E Nuff on the Super Nintendo?! We sure hope so, because that's what we're playing this week!

-
Episode 238: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 238 - Super Valis IV
This week Earl and Jurek play a little known game called Super Valis IV for the Super Nintendo! The game is "little known" for a reason. This might just be the most mediocre platformer ever made. It's in no way bad, but it's also in no way good. As Thanos once said: "Perfectly balanced, as all...
-
Episode 237: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 237 - Eliminator Boat Duel
This week Jurek and Earl enter a virtual boat race as they play Eliminator Boat Duel on the NES! Earl was very worried there wasn't enough content in this game to get a full episode out of, but boy, was he wrong! While this game probably wasn't very popular due to it's lackluster title, it turns...

-
Episode 233: Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 233 - The Ignition Factor
This week Jurek and Earl take the role of firemen as they play The Ignition Factor on the Super Nintendo! This episode also kinda sorta doubles as our Christmas episode!

This week Earl and Jurek continue to play Donkey Kong 64 on the Nintendo 64! Last week the guys managed to get one whole golden banana (out of 201!), so needless to say there is a bit more of the game to explore! They now have all the Kong's unlocked, so at least they got to try out each…
more -
Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 223 - Donkey Kong 64 part 1
This week Jurek and Earl play the very first part, literally only the beginning, of Donkey Kong 64 for the Nintendo 64! Turns out it takes quite a while to get ANYWHERE in this game! That said, the game is pretty fun while also being fairly clunky. Mario 64 it is not. The guys still manage to…

Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 218 - Solomon's Key
This week Earl and Jurek take control of a tiny wizard as they play Solomon's Key on the NES! This game seems like it should be really fun but, like so many games of the time, the difficulty makes having fun almost impossible! The game looks and controls fine, but the music is a little lacking.…

Retro Gaming Revelry - Ep. 217 - Super Earth Defense Force
This week Jurek and Earl once again take to the virtual skies as they play Super Earth Defense Force on the Super Nintendo!
