If Nancy Mace had just gone to College of Charleston instead of The Citadel, we wouldn't be in this mess.

youtu.be/lB0w8n30RZ4 And finally, for the throwback review of the week, it's a System 16 arcade game on an eight bit console. And it was terrible. Why do I mention this? No reason...

youtu.be/BMqX8fGOiRc And in case you missed last week's review, it's for an timer...but in multimedia form.

youtu.be/fgYdXREKoQk The game is afoot...again!

I've never been a WWE guy, and I especially haven't watched it over the last 10 years or so. But usually, I'll still enjoy the Royal Rumble, just because it's a different kind of match, and I can see most of the stars in an hour long match. Not this year. That's the worst Rumble I've ever seen.

Don't be like me and waste an hour arguing on Threads with people about Postmodernism, waste an hour watching this instead. At least then you'll actually learn something and be entertained, rather than pray for the downfall of mankind.

Coming next week on zilogandmoto.com, Holmes and Watson are at it again! Episode #318 - Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective Volume II for Sega CD.

@yesterzine.bsky.social when are we getting this episode of Yesterzine?

youtu.be/s2KVj8bfjzk And finally, for the throwback review of the week, one of the games packed in with the Sega CD to show off the power of FMV. Have you ever wanted to be Sherlock Holmes? This might be the game for you, especially if like the occasional corny joke.

youtu.be/bEL0jP5BIdk And in case you missed it, last week was another legendary game...legendarily infamous, that is.

youtu.be/BMqX8fGOiRc This week, it's a game that has a reputation as being one of the best sports games of all time...but now with the extra power of the Sega CD behind it! Does it make a difference?

Coming next week on zilogandmoto.com, episode #317. It's currently -8 Fahrenheit with a -30 F RealFeel here in Chicago, so what better time to hit the ice. NHL '94 is well known as one of the best games on the Genesis...but what about the Sega CD version?

youtu.be/S_-fo_NYcrc Finally, for the throwback review of the week, here's another all timer in NHL '94, a game that's THIS close to being perfect

youtu.be/TPwQ8D_9VXc Speaking of rides, last week, we took a look at the somewhat legendary Road Rash II for an adventure all across the US

youtu.be/bEL0jP5BIdk Any time I'm comparing a game to blue cheese or Alf, you know you're in for a ride...

Coming Monday or Tuesday, episode #316 on zilogandmoto.com. Once more into the breach with another look at The Simpsons: Bart Vs. The Space Mutants, this time in an 8 bit variety.

youtu.be/5ObMNaBN95g Finally, for the throwback review of the week, let's turn the clock back to the first time I reviewed a Simpsons game on the channel. Sadly, I don't think my face will look much happier this week.

youtu.be/oxnASqfpivQ And last week, in case you missed it, I reviewed Bonanza Bros for the Master System, which, and this might be controversial, but I think I like better than the Genesis version.

youtu.be/TPwQ8D_9VXc Some weeks, you play a good game. Some weeks, you play a bad game. And some weeks, you play an all timer, that almost impossible to put down.

What's better than one copy of Road Rash II? Two copies of Road Rash II! Episode #315 of zilogandmoto.com will be up Monday or Tuesday at the latest. Script half done and game footage captured.

youtu.be/81vUFv6eAyA Finally, for the throwback review of the week...we're trying this again. One of the best ports of a 16 bit title to exist on the Master System.

youtu.be/IrcyCj5RErM And last week's video, in case you missed it, is the wrap up video for 2025, where I went through the best (and worst) of what I looked at last year.

youtu.be/oxnASqfpivQ Time to start off 2026 on zilogandmoto.com! Yes, this probably isn't the review you were expecting, but don't worry, THAT should still be coming next week. Bonanza Bros is similar to the Genesis effort of the game, but there are some distinct changes to be aware of.

Coming Tuesday, most likely, the first episode of Season 8! Yeah, I know, this was supposed to be a certain other motorcycle game, but I started to work on that, and quickly found out my copy had some...issues, so had to order another one.

youtu.be/qJwn55dHkco And finally, for the throwback review of the week, we go ALL the way back to Season 1, and look at the instant classic, the original Road Rash for the Genesis.

youtu.be/qM-Z0JrDnkc And last week, in case you missed it, we went on a thoroughly enjoyable hunt for that scamp, Carmen Sandiego.

youtu.be/IrcyCj5RErM Happy almost New Year, everyone! This is the big one, this is the one where I look back at 2025, make some top 10 lists, hand out some awards, and establish a Hall of Fame/Shame system? Also, find out who won that copy of Clue!

youtu.be/IrcyCj5RErM Happy almost New Year, everyone! This is the big one, this is the one where I look back at 2025, make some top 10 lists, hand out some awards, and establish a Hall of Fame/Shame system? Also, find out who won that copy of Clue!

Busy day today...

Wait, people are upset that characters AREN'T dying on Stranger Things? The show that's about a bunch of kids? Y'all some dark people. I'm still pissed they killed Eddie, I'll be MORE than fine if everyone else gets a happier ever after.

Steady working on the end of the year wrap up video for the channel, things are going well, and the top 10 lists are almost done. Also, just a reminder to head over to the channel if you wanted a chance to win this copy Clue. www.zilogandmoto.com

You see, this is quite literally ALL you have to do when you're a public figure. You don't have to go on crazy, unhinged, late night rants about your enemies. Simply just say, "Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays/etc." and go about your damn business. Festivus is not supposed to be a real thing.

youtu.be/g-4wwX4tRws And for the throwback video of the week, here's last year's Year In Review video, just in case you need a refresher before all the updated top 10 lists come out next week.

youtu.be/hYnKfDoeMZs And last week's review, for the highly disappointing Bulls Vs. Blazers. Almost as disappointing as the Lakers have been since the in season tournament...

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring...except Dave, because he had the last review of the year to get uploaded... youtu.be/qM-Z0JrDnkc

Programming update for the holidays: Episode #313, for Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego is planned for Christmas Eve, and then the year end wrap up video/awards show is scheduled for NYE. This last review is almost done, but I'm getting over a cold, so want to give it a day or two.

youtu.be/nhunmdsuJus And finally, for the throwback review of the week, here's a look at a most unusual port of Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? It's definitely still Carmen Sandiego, but you haven't played it like this before.

youtu.be/wbNDCcY8v98 And last week's review, in case you missed it, was much like the Ren and Stimpy show itself: brilliant, but over much too quickly.

youtu.be/hYnKfDoeMZs After an unexpected trip to Dallas, we're back with episode #312. I wish it was a better game to come back to, but hey, that's how the ball bounces sometimes.

Hey all, just a programming note, unfortunately episode #312 is going to be delayed a day or two. Going to try to have it done for Tuesday morning, but due to travel issues today, I didn't have a chance to work on it any further. Script is about 60% done as it stands.

Is it bad when you preorder a game, forget you ordered it, and then are shocked by a random shipping notification?

So, are done talking about the Game Awards for another year? Please?

Is there anything more silly than having to clean the vacuum? Like, I'm having to clean the thing that I use to clean other things?

Note to self, when working late on a video because you have to republish it due to removing music that youtube didn't like, make sure you still have the DATE correct for when it goes live...

youtu.be/uu7EJaXnSPs And finally, for the throwback review of the week, here's a real oddity in the Genesis library, Team USA Basketball, from when people used to like the United States.

youtu.be/8_SSEIOfbP4 And for last week's review, in case you missed it, I looked at another game that was over far too quickly, but in this case, I didn't mind so much...

youtu.be/wbNDCcY8v98 Closing in on the end of the year, here's a review for a game that I enjoyed playing for the first time this week, but the experience was over far too quick.

Coming next week on zilogandmoto.com, Episode #311, it's Happy Happy Joy Joy time!

Boy, I just love people watching a 5 year old video and offering me life advice on how to do MY channel. Like I haven't produced over 200 videos since then, and the channel hasn't changed in any way over that time. (It hasn't, but still).

youtu.be/m8033EpNQN4 And for the throwback video of the week, we look at the first time I reviewed a Brazilian title on the channel!
