Pull up a chair and grab some popcorn, the Old Game Boys are taking you out to the movies! Coming off of our heroic adventures in Dragon Quest inspired us to watch Dragon Quest: Your Story, a (very loose) adaptation of Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride.

When the Old Game Boys played through Myst, they encountered two of the worst (adult) children characters in video game history: Sirrus and Achenar. In plenty of other video games, there have been obnoxious kid characters, but there have also been some fun and endearing ones too! In this bonus level, Steve and Korwin discuss some of their favorite (and not so favorite) kid characters from video games old and new.

Surely everyone knows what it's like to get lost in a good book. The same holds true for this beloved classic puzzle game by Cyan in 1993: Myst. In this month's level, Steve and Korwin step into the pages written by Atrus and explore a mysterious island with vast and impressive different ages. But does this brainteaser hold up well today? Should our heroes focus on the red pages or the blue pages? And how do you even light a match in this game? The answers you're looking for and then some can be found in this level! You won't wanna MYST out on it.

And man, what a KONG-cept it is! There are plenty of KONG-petitors within this legendary KONG-petition, ready to duke it out with the King of Swing himself. Which of our premier primates, our top-shelf simians, our gorillas of your dreams, will make it to the top and claim the title of "Best Kong?" Tune in and find out!

What a thrill. Steve and Korwin return to the wild lore of Metal Gear Solid, in more ways than one. Rather than continue the story of Solid Snake, the Old Game Boys take a trip to the past. The year? 1964. Our hero? Naked Snake. The game? Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater. It's a taut spy thriller about a terrifying tank that could turn the Cold War into a red hot one. You won't wanna miss it!

And what would a bonus level be without a bonus game?! Take a peek at what the Old Game Boys are cooking with a wild, crazy concept: a Super Smash Bros. Mashup with Shadow of the Colossus! You won't wanna miss this one. And you won't want to miss our next game in two weeks: Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater!

Thy next foe is... two Old Game Boys revisiting a beloved, beautiful classic.
A beautiful, gripping, haunting tale that is equal parts tragic and triumphant. A story about a young man desperate to save someone deeply important to him, so much so that he is willing to take down sixteen towering colossi in order to do it. It's a behemoth of a game and one we've both been eager to share with you!
So lift your sword to the light and let it guide you to this month's level: Shadow of the Colossus.

Throw your hands in the air, if youse a multiplayer!

From the Old Game Boys that brought you a Max Payne Level, it's a Max Payne Movie Bonus Level! After riffing on the film's cast in our previous episode, we simply had to watch the cinematic adaptation for ourselves. It... sure was a movie, wasn't it? How could a game that's so much fun spawn a movie that seems so afraid to have it? Give this bonus level a listen and find out for yourselves!

Looking for something more hard-boiled? Then look no further. This month, Steve and Korwin spend a New York Minute discussing Max Payne: a game about a fugitive cop with nothing left to lose! One of video game auteur Sam Lake's earliest works, Max Payne is a cinematic neo-noir third person shooter that lets you slow down time while stylishly taking down enemies. And plenty of fun references to Norse mythology! So hop into bullet time and give it a listen!

An RPG that Korwin loves but Steve doesn't. An RPG that Steve adores but Korwin won't! As much as these two may butt heads over these games, the Old Game Boys take a deep dive on what it is about these games specifically that's caused such a contentious disconnect!

Hold onto your Orcs, it's time for the Old Game Boys' first foray into Real-Time Strategy! With four factions, plenty of potential for raging multiplayer chaos, and ridiculous names like "Malfurion Stormrage," this episode is a recipe for a good time. And best of all, we surely won't be updating it with an unnecessary remaster 18 years from now! (Too soon, Blizzard?)

“The Experience Begins…”
You said it, Shenmue. This month, Steve and Korwin take a trip back in time to (mostly) 1986 Japan and pound the pavement with Ryo Hazuki in an ongoing quest to find answers after the death of his father at the hands of the mysterious Lan Di. There's plenty of questions that need to be answered. Like, who is Lan Di? How much realism is too much realism in video games? And does anyone know where sailors like to hang out? Find out in this next level as Steve and Korwin take on Shenmue!

Not just old as in retro, but old as in "old games that we really should've finished by this point before we pick up any new ones."
