Pulled from the year 2004, Nate's pick for this Is It Worth It brings tons of hip-hop artists right into an environmental arena fighting game (or wrestling depending on who you ask). Is it one of the best fighting games ever made, or is it a rose tinted nostalgia? Join us as we discuss if the game is worth the price across all three systems.

A ghost online and one of the harder to find titles we've personally seen, Berry brings Fighting Fantasy: The Warlock of Firetop Mountain to the table in a new episode of Is It Worth it? There's a large margin of difference between critic scores and user scores, which was a driving force in the choice of this game. Did we think it was worth it after spending the time playing it?

Nate is back with another Pokemon choice on the Nintendo 64, Pokemon Snap! We talk about story, graphics, game play, sound, and collectibility to determine if the game is worth it. Is this a good deal or is the Pokemon tax too much?

Coming in with the end of a SNES trilogy is Bryan's pick, Mega Man X3. The first playable introduction to the now incredibly popular Zero, is this game worth the big price tag? How does it stack up with the other X games, and is it really Mega Man?

Our first Working Designs title on the podcast, we played Vanguard Bandits to see if the game was just as stellar as that packaging. A tactical RPG on the Playstation 1 similar to other games such as Final Fantasy Tactics and Front Mission, we take a look at story, gameplay, graphics, sound, and collectibility to discuss if the price is really worth it. Boasting over 50 different missions across 3 playthroughs, this game has a lot to offer. But was it enough to keep on our shelf?

Our first episode of 2024, Bryan brings it in guns blazing with Gunstar Super Heroes on GameBoy Advance. Is this sequel/remake/but-not-a-sequel/sort-of-also-not-a-remake worth the price? We played it and bring our thoughts on gameplay, story, sound, graphics, and collectibility for our ultimate answer to the collecting question, Is It Worth It?

October is upon us, and so is an iconic horror choice! Splatterhouse, a staple for the Turbo Grafx-16, is this spooky and notoriously censored game worth the value? We go through the whole thing and talk about all the points in consideration. Is this a game worth having in a collection?

New Episode Alert! Nate wanted to have some fun on this episode, and challenged us to try to convince you why you shouldn't play some of our favorite video game titles. Of course, we will always love these games. But sometimes it's hard to recommend, and here's some reasons why.
What games do you love that you also just would not recommend? Is it bad? Is it difficult? Is it just outdated?

An iconic series in manga and anime, spanning decades since the 1984, Berry brings us the most beloved title in the DBZ video game library. Boasting a 98 character roster in 161 various forms, it's got it all when it comes to Dragon Ball. With the announcement of Budokai Tenkaichi 4's development, fans of the franchise are going nuts. But why? What made this game so loved? Is it actually good, and is it actually worth the price? And the most important question....who is your favorite character?

Our newest episode is live! Variants! Oh boy do we have a lot of variants in video games. Misprints, greatest hits, alternate covers, the list is endless. Bryan brings us a topic he's extremely interested in collecting, and we discuss the good, the bad, and the supremely ugly of variant collecting in video games. Variant collecting is a bit uncommon in the greater community, but we've taken a deep dive in our discussion.

A console Saturn exclusive, fists are out in this arcade 1v1 fighting spin-off in the Golden Axe series. While it's generally considered a flop in the series, we might have a different opinion. Join us with this interesting cast of characters (AND you get to play as Death Adder himself) and our discussion on if the game is worth it.

Collector's Editions. Video games are often credited with popularizing them in the early 2000s. Have they gone too far? Chock full of items from steelbooks and keychains, to a custom-built zombie proof shelf and an actual Lamborghini. Join us as we discuss our thoughts and expectations for collector's editions, and if the industry itself has flown a little too close to the sun.

New Episode! It's Bubble Bobble Part 2!
A heavy hitter in the NES catalog, we played Bubble Bobble Part 2 (not to be confused with Bubble Bobble II). Join us and Bub and Bob (or is it Chubby and Rubby?) as we discuss this wild and very confusing game series, and whether its worth the price tag. Is it too much, or worthy of the prestige?

Welcome to the Yamada family.
After years of the Bros staring at this one on the shelf, we played it to finally experience the wild game Mister Mosquito. A PS2 exclusive of sucking blood, fighter jet flying, and super powered boss fights. Are our wallets the blood feeding this game, or does it just suck?

Ever had a game where you said "woah I completely forgot about that game!"? Yeah we all have.....let's talk about some titles that are lost in the sauce. From lack of preservation in ye olden PC gaming to just titles that aren't really given the light of day. How collectible are some of these, do they hold up, why or why not?

An incredible successor to the GameBoy, we take this whole episode to discuss and gush about the GameBoy Advance! How did it affect the gaming playing field, and what great titles came out that we loved and we think are good collectible choices? Will we ever get a handheld like the GBA again? And what's in store of the GBA titles on the Nintendo Online Service?

Jam packed with gunfire, explosions, helicopters, and mid-2000s gangster rap starring 50 Cent himself, we dive right into 50 Cent: Blood On The Sand for the Xbox 360. Could this game be a contender for the priciest games of the second Microsoft console? The Collecti-Bros are gonna get rich or die tryin' on this pricey 360 title.
