It seems like such a simple concept: you take something that is fun and friendly for kids, make it a little uncanny, and then make it kill the player! So why are so many Mascot Horror games dog water? This month Jeramey and Aiden have a spooky time trying out a smorgasbord of free Mascot Horror games. Is there a diamond in the rough? Or is it all an exercise in futility?Music:Borderlands 2 - T.K.

Here is a little sneak peek at the organization that goes into Replay or Replace. This was supposed to be the episode released in July to celebrate the 4th. Dates got mixed up and we wanted to get to Mixtape while it was fresh and so our &#34;patriotic&#34; episode got pushed back to September! But if you can ignore all that, join Jeramey and Aiden as they explore North Korean occupied America in Homefront: The Revolution. Why do you think so many of the games we do are sequels?

Do you know what anemoia is? It&#39;s the feeling of nostalgia for a time you never lived through. Join Jeramey and Aiden as they see if they can reconnect with a bunch of crazy kids living through the last summer of their teens in Mixtape! Can they find the gameplay inside of the game?

A month between episodes is a long time to wait to hear us so we are dropping these into the rotation: short little episodes where we talk casually about games we like! Usually, they will be games we mentioned in our regular recording, replacements for the bad games, but sometimes it will be just about something we are interested in at the moment. These will be shorter, less edited, and are meant to be a casual time. This month Aiden talks about his love of the Alien Franchise and the game Alien isolation, and Jeramey talks about the unfinished but quirky The Coin Game. Re-edited too hopefully sound better! Enjoy!

Do you have a license to drive through that wall? This month Jeramey, Aiden, and Krystine drive through the floor in Flatout 3: Chaos and Destruction. This is the game that was the worst rated on Steam for a very long time. But is it actually a hidden gem of the racing genera? No. Probably now.
