Listeners will know that Jamie and Rory both enjoyed the 2006 Silent Hill movie quite a bit. Unfortunately this follow up isn't so fondly remembered.

See acast.com/privacy for more …

An odd entry in the VGMP canon this week; from 1983, Joysticks asks the question "what if Porky's but in an arcade?"

The question however, is does any of it coa…

An unusual episode for VGMP this week. This isn't an adaptation of a game but rather a film contained within a game.

The late 1980s saw videogame media making its first steps into the realm of film and television and usually the results were, at best, ill conceived.
