Sweating Maple Syrup to Help You Spaghetti-Hair Folk Cheer Up | The Pixelated Sausage Show

This is a pretty "whatever" episode. The intro goes on and on about this, that, and (mostly) nothing--emphasis on the nothing--with a small break for one game before ending with a dumb question from Enchy, making up for their great question last week. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day. (And if you haven't already, or are a listener and not a watcher, please like, subscribe, hit the bell, and all that jazz; it may not seem like much, but it goes a long way in helping support the show and site in general.

I finally decided to watch The Last of Us and thoughts...I have them. There are spoilers ahead--focusing mostly on episodes three and five--so if you haven't watched the show and plan to, best skip ahead this episode where you'll be treated to a very interesting Patreon question, a review of Ten Dates, and what my time with Wanted: Dead was like.

When Gettin' Slimed Is a Good Time: A Slime Rancher Review | Attack the Backlog

You know a game is special when you can take a break for years and return as if no time had passed at all. That was my experience with Slime Rancher, a game about sucking up slimes and spitting them into little prisons so you can force feed them until they shit their figurative pants, all so you can take that shit and sell it on the poo, I mean, plort market. There is, of course, more to it than just that--a bit of farming, a bit of exploring, a bit of breeding, and a bit of "choring"--but it’s incredibly simple at its core, a game that's easy to get lost in and keep playing for just a little more. But don't just take my word for it, take my video (and audio) too, why don't you.

The Core Problem with Armageddon | The Pixelated Sausage Show

Continuing with the nothing trend, Marc spends much of this episode talking about, well, nothing, including how they haven't touched their Polymega since the first time they used it and how Ben Affleck in Armageddon and most podcast hosts are the same person. After all that and a bit of an update about the site, Marc manages to find some time for games, including Backfirewall_, Watch Over Christmas, and The Redress of Mira. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day.

The Seinfeld Episode, aka, The One About Nothing | The Pixelated Sausage Show

This episode is mostly about nothing, until it isn't. After spending a fair amount of time talking about the future direction of Attack the Backlog and the site in general (along with some random movie and show talk--Voyager says hi) Marc hits a few games and then wrap things up with Patreon questions, including the age old question of, "Would you rather have sandpaper hands, or only be able to eat what you hunt/gather yourself?" Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day.

Thor 4: Dumb and Dumber | The Pixelated Sausage Show

Somehow, Thor: Love and Thunder managed to be worse than I ever could have expected, while Farscape has been a roller coaster of great, forgettable, okay, bad, and, "Oh my god...what am I even watching?!" Not to be outdone, PERISH perished under the weight of its own unsatisfying loop, while Sissa's Path impressed with its puzzle design Albacete Warrior did its best Fight Club impression--in other words, we don't talk about Albacete Warrior. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day.

Square Pants and More Plex Rants | The Pixelated Sausage Show

This episode is sure you leave you asking, "Please, god, stop with the Plex talk," and, "What did SpongeBob ever do to you?!" To which I say, "Make me," and, "They sucked well before I had anything to say about it ('cause, you know, they're a sponge and whatnot...) "Jokes" aside, I talk about a handful of movies, shows, and games on this episodes, including Tár, Violent Night, SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake, and Rhythm Sprout: Sick Beats & Bad Sweets.

One of the Best Games of the Decade?!: A Clone Drone in the Danger Zone Review | Attack the Backlog

It's times like this that make Attack the Backlog worth it. For all the games that disappoint, there are games that surprise, and no game in recent memory surprised me quite as much as Clone Drone in the Danger Zone. Not only did I have a blast playing the game, but Clone Drone took me on a weird and wild journey I won't soon forget, delivering a story that kept me wanting to play more and more until credits rolled (which is exactly what I did). I can't promise you'll come away feeling as high on the game as I, but if you give it your time, you might just find an enjoyable surprise. But don't just take my word for it, take my video (and audio) too, why don't you.

Listening to This Podcast Is Pain, You Just Get Used to It | The Pixelated Sausage Show

Thank god it's Friday, amiright or amiright? Except, the concept of time has been long gone for a long time now, meaning this episode could be a mere thirty minutes long, or maybe, I fear, dirty skin nuts schlong--this doesn't make any sense; I just really wanted to rhyme right there, which is far from my only crime  my dear. Nonsense out of the way, Marc (aka, me) talks about a handful or movies and games this episode, including The Last Boy Scout, The Long Kiss Goodnight, Startup Company Console Edition, and Kao the Kangaroo, so sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day.

Bodies Bodies Bodies? More Like Boring Sucky Shitty | The Pixelated Sausage Show

This is about as last minute as a podcast can get, recorded mere hours before posting, and boy does it show (or does it?). After a bit of meandering to start things off, Marc reviews Bodies Bodies Bodies before wrapping up their Terminator rewatch part of one--the other four never showed up. After that, Marc hits one schmup and two survival horror games, including Yuppie Psycho and Chasing Static. Anyway and as always, thank you for watching or listening, I hope you enjoy this here episode, and I hope you have a wonderful wonderful rest of your day.
