As well as the film, we tackle a thumping 16-bit beat em up, a limp 8-bit game that's far too easy and a very purple 16-bit game made slightly better by the presence of the Batmobile.

Ep 223Action 52 - Mario Gonzalez Interview - The Truth Behind the Worst Game of All Time!
Action 52 is regarded by many as the worst NES games/carts of all time but my, does it have a fascinating story.
