Grab your controllers and drop in your quarters. This week we’re attempting the impossible: ranking our Top 5 Favorite Video Games of All Time.

Ryan brings a list heavy on sweeping narratives, time travel, and mind-bending mechanics. Deric, on the other hand, just wants to build a city, avoid the stress of massive open worlds, and shoot alien bugs in an arcade cabinet. From the cel-shaded controversies of Wind Waker to the stealth espionage of Metal Gear Solid, we break down the games that defined our childhoods and ate up all our free time, and TOKENS.

In this episode:

The Main Event: Ryan and Deric’s Top 5 Video Games.

Stale Popcorn: The new Jay and Silent Bob beat-'em-up and the wild connection that proves Seinfeld and Friends share a universe .

Gum Under The Seat: We read your comments on Last Action Hero, Godzilla vs. Kong, and your favorite pro wrestlers.

Retro Ramble: We discuss the games we always wanted to play as kids, but never got our hands on (and whether they held up when we finally did).

Next week, we are rolling the dice on the 1995 Robin Williams classic, Jumanji
