Sonic Blast, Man! That’s what we said we were going to cover this week. It’s not out fault if you didn’t pick up on that comma.

The Shadow knows! He knows that this movie was such a flop (was it though?) that the game 99% completed yet they decided to scrap it?

Super Troll Islands, that’s right. ISLANDS. Plural. So many islands of souless hairy troll faces with their butt jiggly up and down ladder. That’s not me just being weird.

In addition to all this ridiculousness, we do a deep dive … Continue reading → The post Ep. 808 – Super Troll Islands appeared first on TADPOG: Tyler and Dave Play Old Games.
