In over two hundred episodes, this might just be the weirdest game we've ever covered. But "weird" doesn't always mean "bad". I love indie games for their creativity and off-the-wall ideas, and this game plays like an indie game from 1993. And it was made by EA of all companies. It's Haunting Starring Polterguy! You control this dead punk skater looking dude, and go from house to house terrorizing a family of four. It's hilarious, weird, and I like it. 
 
RTG Supporter Hawgzilla sponsored this episode, and it was great chatting with him and finding out why he has such an odd attachment to such an odd game. And then I lay into Polterguy and explain why I think this really is a hidden gem on the Genesis, albeit maybe one without a lot of replay value.
 
And before we scare some kids, I slap together another edition of the 'Remember The Game? Infamous Intro'!
 
This week, we talk about new console generations, and if console developers give up on old consoles too quickly? I find out what Polybius is (spoiler: it's terrifying). And does a Steam Deck make you a PC Master Racer??
 
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 terrifying Genesis games: Michael Jackson's Moonwalker, Splatterhouse 2, and Ecco The Dolphin.
