I haven't played Max Payne since it came out, so I was stoked to see how it holds up 25 years later. Fortunately the stuff that was awesome is still awesome. Unfortunately the nightmare segments are still shit too, though.
If you haven't played Max Payne, you play as this bitter undercover cop who saw his family killed by drug junkies and he's had enough and started going scorched earth on everyone that moves. You basically go from room to room killing people and every now and then it gets interrupted by gritty comic book panels. Add int he ability to slow time Matrix style and you got yourself a classic.
The bitterest man I know, my buddy Tyler, is my guest this week and we did the thing where we sit down and talk about games and does anyone even read these???
And before we slow things down, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week someone asks what 5 games I think I've spent the most time playing in my life? How do I feel about WWE 2K26's new battle pass system? And would Video and Arcade Top 10 work as an adult show in 2026??
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 games featuring coppers: LA Noire, Sleeping Dogs, and Dead to Rights.

We need a few days to get the Max Payne episode together, so to celebrate Mar10 day, here's my ranking of every mainline Mario game from 6 years ago on the VERY FIRST episode of Expansion Pass!

The list of games from my younger years that I can just review off the top of my head is getting pretty short, but Toobin' is still on it. It's a really fun NES arcade port that my brother and I would rent ALL the time as kids.
You play as a dude in an inner tube, autoscrolling/floating down rivers and avoiding obstacles that want to pop your ride. You can throw cans at enemies and hazards and get you to places like the jungle, the arctic, and Mars. It's awesome.
My guest this week is a living legend around RTG, my pal Chris. He was a SEGA kid, I was a Nintendo World Orderer, but we both grew up littering in strange places on virtual inner tubes.
And before we go toobin', I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week someone asks if I actually do have friends? And if so, why don't I game with them?? How do I feel about the winner of our Pre-March Madness tourney?? And is a CRT worth the money for retro gaming??
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 other NES games we always rented as kids: Dick Tracy, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, and A Boy And His Blob.

It's an off-week here at RTG, and Resident Evil Requiem drops on Thursday, so I figured I'd dig into our Patreon archives and upload my review of the last Resident Evil, Resident Evil Village, to the free feeds. Hope you enjoy the episode and RTG will be back next week!

The original Metroid Prime sits side-by-side with Metroid Dread as my favourite games in the series, so I've been looking forward to jumping into the sequel and seeing if it lives up to the hype. From a polish standpoint, I think it does for sure. But personally? Ehhhh....
Prime 2 is objectively a well made game. The polish is there, great story, graphics, soundtrack, exploration. It splits the game's map into 2 distinct worlds, and on paper that's a great idea (as Link To The Past proves). But in execution it seems to be little more divisive. And while some people love this game, I found the maps and dark world equal parts brilliant and frustrating as fuck.
My guest this week is our resident Metroid junkie, Stpd Mnky. He's the biggest Samus fan I know, and we went for an hour talking the lights and darks of Samus vs Samus, and discussed whether or not we think this game surpasses its predecessor.
And before we morph into balls, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week someone asks for advice on being a creator when you run into setbacks? Do I ever just game for FUN anymore? And why don't I like Majora's Mask??
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 GameCube beasts: Super Mario Sunshine, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and Super Smash Bros. Melee.
