RiffTrax: The Game is a spiritual sequel to the hit What the Dub?, itself heavily inspired by the Jackbox series of games. Newly added are the talents of the RiffTrax crew, themselves formerly of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Our crew checking it out are Alicia Utecht, Ryan Freels, O.J. Duncan, Janine Armstrong, Sandy Pensoneau-Conway, and Justin Young.
The semester is over, but that doesn’t mean the stress of school is entirely gone. We talk about a whole of movies and TV, plus some games such as Prince of Persia, Stone Cold’s favorite Zelda, Wordle, Fortnite, Queen Elizabeth’s Golden Wii, the Video Game Hall of Game, and more. This week’s crew includes Alicia Utecht, Ryan Freels, O.J. Duncan, and Justin Young.
Alicia returns with tales of (almost) the great white north as we all lower our heads and tackle finals week head on. But first, big news on Square Enix selling off their western developers, Sonic reaching new heights, Mario slacking off when it comes to his new movie, Xbox Series X everywhere, and Disney’s take on Animal Crossing. This week’s crew includes Alicia Utecht, Ryan Freels, O.J. Duncan, and Justin Young.
Did anyone actually play Final Fantasy XII? We answer this while tackling topics such as transphobia in Grand Theft Auto, Meta Quest’s new VR titles, do we need another Sonic collection, how much worse can it get for Activision Blizzard, and which series have traditionally turned us off from playing them. This week’s crew includes Ryan Freels, O.J. Duncan, Justin Young, and guest Jodie Salazar.
We’re past Easter and that means discounted candy–or not. There’s also some video game talk about American Idol NFTs, Sonic’s unstoppable box office, the rebirth and redeath of Club Penguin, a Minecraft movie, Switch Game Boy Advanced emulation, and more! This week’s crew includes Alicia Utecht, Ryan Freels, O.J. Duncan, and Justin Young.

Playing for Pets is over, so we recap the 24-hour video game marathon!

This week’s crew includes Alicia Utecht, Ryan Freels, O.J. Duncan, and Justin Young.
April may eventually make fools of us all, but until then we talk about three new tiers of Playstation Plus, E3’s last days, hackers robbing NFTs, a new Monkey Island, Coca-Cola Byte, and the games we most want sequels to! This week’s crew includes Alicia Utecht, Ryan Freels, O.J. Duncan, and Justin Young.
The semester might slowly be breaking us, but we have enough energy for a new episode! We talk about the disappointment of Final Fantasy Origin, Netflix and Amazon in games, EA dropping brand names, the new Halo series, why Pizza Hut is missing a cowabunga opportunity, and who would we rather fight–Kirby or Jigglypuff? This week’s crew includes Alicia Utecht, Ryan Freels, O.J. Duncan, and Justin Young.
