Episode comment: I have played some of Mass Effect 2, but it's keyboard-only on my laptop, which makes it hard to play. It was gifted to me somewhat recently. I do like what I've played, but I might need to get it for another system. Remember, I had no PS3/360 or Wii and did not get a laptop capable of gaming until 2012. 

As far as the space sex joke, I'm aware that's not the whole game, I just remember a very drummed up Fox News controversy my dad bought into closer to the first game releasing. I know you weren't talking about me specifically with the "who we gonna f*" commentary, but just wanted to clarify I'm aware there's more to the games. lol

Also, I rented Andromeda, which was supposed to be my introduction to the series, so ... we all know how that went. 

STAGE SELECT:

Growlithe always looked cool (it's been so long since I've played Pokemon, I had to look the name up). 

I've never played Silent Hill 2, and I don't want to ruin it for anyone, but I watched a top 10 dogs in games YouTube video and I now love that Shiba Inu. Holy shit, that's great. 

Finally, Okami. I'm not feeling the need to explain that one.

CAGE MATCH:

Ooohhh, these are a couple JRPGs I've actually been interested in and wanted to like (and I may like persona 5, I just haven't played it yet). I still remember how blown away I was by Final Fantasy X cutscenes, so I'll go with that. Also, if I understand the storyline well enough, I think I like a lot of the themes in it. I never got too far, but I'm always up for fighting a cult (again, if I'm remembering those themes right). 

I looked at that second KISS uni picture thinking, "Oh, holy crap that looks real!" only to realize ... 

Comfort food does sound amazing right now.

STAGE SELECT:

Make it a space sex focused spin-off and completely reformat the gameplay to be like something from DONTNOD Entertainment, because I have no connection to this series and I'm honestly just interested in the branchin dialogue choices, specifically. 

Remember when you asked me to make the next Final Fantasy game? How'd that turn out for ya? Exactly. 

CAGE MATCH:

I have really fond memories of both, but I have to go with Eternal Darkness, only because I wish more people would play it. They're both unique gaming experiences, but I think most people who'd be interested in Luigi's Mansion have played it, whereas I feel the need to proselatyze a bit more for ED, as well as for Eternal Darkness. 

Anyway, have you thought of the benefits of ED? It can keep you from making some very stupid, life-altering decisions. It's pretty great. 

I remember EGM loving it, and you saying it's action combat but otherwise like KOTOR has me intrigued yet again. 

I never really noticed how good the sound is. That's cool. 

Any relation to the Simulacra book, which inspired the Matrix, I wonder?

The Cult in a Dead MMO vid is too long for me right now, but it looks interesting. I remember the mid 90s ... simpler times. 

ooohhh, XBOX space bucks. I think we've found a way out of this economic downturn, by golly!

I mean, they definitely look like Gradius, that's for sure.
