The world is coming to an end. Unlike 2 weeks ago, it really is happening this time. Instead of some douche evangelist, it will end at the hands of a mythological demon with a fish for a head. There is no way to prevent it. Instead, it falls upon you to gather everything that was great about the world so you can build a new one. You’ll do so by controlling an avatar which rolls over everything it wants to gather, causing it to stick to him. Waitaminute, where have I heard this before? Okay, so TWEOTW may share some similarities with a certain game created by Namco, but if Saint’s Row taught us anything, it’s that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. So if you got a few bucks, you can download this fun title. It may not be original, but it is fun.

SeanOrange and Vinnk talk about the perils of interfacing 8-bit systems with current technology, how to cope with some of the technical challenges, and what alternatives exist for the modern gamer interested in the titles of the previous millennium.
