This week, we discuss the very things we thought about while watching 2004's Hellboy - ritual(s) and cryptids and creatures, oh my! Spoiler alert: the creepiest creature we discuss this week is…
So sometimes this is news everybody's heard or they missed or they got a glimpse of.
Usually Nate can be really good in hearing the news and sometimes he goes right by and he doesn't know idea it happens.
This is why we do this.
Right off the bat, Atari has given Universal Studios the option to create games off of 10 of their properties.
And we know how well that worked out for Pixels because these games are very flimsy.
So, Nate, here's some of them.
Asteroids.
Yeah.
It's a space movie, I guess.
Adventure.
It's probably only one with the real plots.
Yeah.
Because it is made off of other stuff, like a story.
There's dragons, everything.
Even though the graphics can't keep up with a plot like that in Atari days, it at least has something there.
Berserk, which is probably the worst looking of them all.
The game involves a humanoid intruder who has to escape a maze-like room that are littered with robots that slowly move toward and shoot at the humanoid.
And I'm like, is this like a back rooms type thing where anything goes now? We can just create it and Evil Otto will be a creature that we can create, whatever.
But it looks so bad.
It's like a top-down of Dude, I could draw it on a piece of paper and you'd be like, yeah, there's no graphics there.
It would look so bad.
And sometimes Atari could pull off really cool looking things, right? If you got creative.
This is not one of those.
