9: The Last Resort Pt 1: De Niro and friends make a game

Oft Off Topic

Step into the whimsical time machine of our latest episode where the pixelated past of '90s gaming gets a fresh coat of audio paint. From the star-studded, Poe-inspired adventure "Nine: The Last Resort," with its unique Tribeca Productions twist, to the maze of unlocking Indiana Jones' in-game secrets, the nostalgia is as thick as an arcade carpet. We promise a treasure trove of throwbacks, including how gaming nostalgia isn't just confined to the screen – it's a journey through the music moods of nu metal and the tiny tales of nations like Nauru.
The plot thickens as we dissect "Nine: The Last Resort," where you're tasked with reviving a creative haven turned chaotic. Cher's voice guides you through this artistic labyrinth, with a cameo that might just involve a song or two. And let's not forget the mischief of Aerosmith's Steven Tyler and Joe Perry! We reminisce about the influences these Hollywood voices had on the game, and how their participation spotlighted the curious intersection of video games and celebrity culture during the '90s.
Finally, we shell out some serious turtle power in an exploration of the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" saga. Voices from the past echo as we clarify the real voice behind Shredder and the legendary Jim Cummings's lesser-known roles. Buckle up for a ride that's as wild as the streets of Seattle, as we prepare you for the next episode where we'll peel back the layers on more gaming, movie, and city trivia. So kick back, press play, and let's get that nostalgia flowing.
