b"Working my way\\xa0through the Sega Genesis library has been one of the coolest\\xa0things about hosting this podcast. There's so many games on the\\xa0other side of the console war trenches that I've always\\xa0wanted to get my hands on, and most of the titles I've gotten to haven't disappointed.\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nTMNT: Hyperstone\\xa0Heist is the\\xa0latest game I've crossed off my\\xa0list, and I'm not sure how I feel about it. I didn't\\xa0disappoint\\xa0me, but it didn't blow my\\xa0socks off,\\xa0either. I feel like it's too good of a game to simply call it a lesser Turtles in Time...but...it's kind of a lesser Turtles in Time...\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nI found this to be a tough game to\\xa0review,\\xa0because we've covered Turtles in Time (twice), and most of the best features of Hyperstone Heist are the same features from Turtles in Time. But I\\xa0got my buddy Mark McCue on the phone, we\\xa0to a 16-bit beat 'em up about one of the best\\xa0franchises in the history of the universe, and we did our best not to shortchange Hyperstone\\xa0Heist on this\\xa0episode. Because it really is a pretty solid game.\\xa0\\n\\xa0\\nAnd before we talk turtles, I toss together another edition of the 'Remember The Game? Infamous Intro'!\\n\\xa0\\nThis week, we talk about the prospects of more RPG episodes of the podcast in the future. What video game character do you want to punch in the teeth the most? And does anyone actually enjoy blowing in NES cartridges?\\n\\xa0\\nPlus we have another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Genesis beat 'em ups: Mighty\\xa0Morphin' Power Rangers: The\\xa0Movie, Spider-Man & Venom: Maximum Carnage, and\\xa0X-Men 2: The Clone Wars.\\n\\xa0\\nAre you on social media?
