You've been thinking about Interplay, right?

Speaking of Interplay, you could have The Lost Vikings too. I was also gonna say Blackthorne but then I remembered the Game Sack Dare to Compare with that one.

Yes. But that was a general reference to that multi-part series I was suggesting (as in, perhaps taking a series of games from a single developer at a time or something akin to that which would allow for better compartmentalization). It's all good.

Nah, that's okay dude.

Coincidentally enough those three (and Earthworm Jim 2) are so far Interplay's only Virtual Console games.

I know you guys did the Street Fighter series in this fashion, as well as many a shmup. So what's stopping you ;).

We do that all the time. Usually when multliple versions of a title exist, I show them all onscreen at once. We do have one arcade to home episode, but for any more I'd have to use MAME.

I know you do. I'm actually trying to push a multi-console, comparative Interplay and Strike Series (Desert/Urban/Jungle) campaign on you guys. It's up to you ;).

I love the episodes where you take an in-depth look at one specific system. I watch several different shows, and GameSack is far and away the most informative.

Oh, and I know it's cliche and YouTube is probably already begging for it, but how about next time when you need a quick-and-dirty filler episode, you have a "collection video." One collection per episode.

I mean, you guys have already done a "Let's Play" episode, so you might as well do the other stand-by.

New episode!

Great episode. I agree with whoever mentioned the collection episode idea. I would like to get a better look at your and Dave's game rooms.

Did you remix the intro theme? It sounds different. Good, but different.

It is different. But if you don't like it be sure to let us know. I'll probably change it to be more like the original for the next episode as I've been getting mixed reactions.

Yeah, it did sound kinda weird compared to the original.

Another vote for the original. It's not bad, but I think I like the original better.

The original is much better. The new one is frustrating.

I like both versions of the intro music.

I'd say keep experimenting with the theme for next one or two episodes and then decide.
