With that said, I wish google stadia was around too, it felt like a game service that was for the little guys. RIP

The catch up with everyone at the beginning was a great start to the episode, despite the various challenges going on. Great run of questions and answers! Thoroughly enjoyable listen

Great episode! Listened to Retronauts before this so instead of Red Dead I'd suggest Blaster Master because it sucked until Zero. Also, did you guys overlook the fact there was an Aqua Teen PS2 game? lol

Aqua Teen Hunger Force was absurdist humor to a T. It’s an attempt to make some super weird, anarchaic Hanna-Barbera cartoon AFTER taking original HB properties like space ghost and sea lab 2021 and making super weird stories that go nowhere with those characters. It was definitely made to create chaos in the cartoon world. Just look up how Adult Swim released the aqua teen movie on their late night block BEFORE it hit theaters on April Fools. So in regards to the question… maybe like…. Katamari Damacy? It was super out there and should’ve been such a destructive video game based on the concept, but ends up being cutesy and colorful and very trippy, for lack of a better term.

I’m also going to throw out the Sam & Max games. Those games are so funny and outrageous. Steve Purcell is a god amongst men.

It is Insert Credit Policy that it is against the spirit of the "of video games" question to answer with the actual video game adaptation of the thing in discussion
