Golden Axe is now out on Paramount Plus! We spoke with co-creators and showrunners Mike McMahan and Joe Chandler about the show. We dove into what it means as storytellers to work in a fantasy setting and more. We also spoke with Danny Pudi and Carl Tart about their respective roles in the show. We discussed what it takes to craft a distinct voice for each character they embody. The show is another instant classic, which I expected from the former Mike McMahan and Joe Chandler shows. The mix of humor and heart makes this a must-watch for fans of the original Sega series and newcomers alike. Even though I played the games when I was younger, I was unfamiliar with the world's lore, but I had no trouble diving headfirst into the show. Plenty of references and easter eggs cater to longtime fans of the SEGA series, but it never feels inaccessible. The cast is stacked with some of the best voice talent working in the business, with Emmy Award winners like Matthew Rhys or the absolutely hilarious improv god Lisa Gilroy. It makes for an extremely fun watch, with plenty of sword-swinging action and all the emotion you expect from a McMahan show.
Episode 64 is a mix of franchise chaos, classic rock homework, and platform politics. Ridley Scott doubled down on Alien: Romulus being merely “okay” and made it clear he still wants to move his own Alien project forward. The latest wrinkle: that project may get absorbed into the Romulus sequel rather than existing as a separate film. We talk what that means for the franchise and whether Scott's version ever actually happens. Amazon has a new RoboCop show incoming. The bar is on the floor after years of remakes and false starts — we're hoping this one remembers the satire and the chrome. Hunter goes into The Kinks and “Lola”: the lyrics, the context, and how people still misread one of the most famous songs of the era. On the games side, a Masters of the Universe title in a Golden Axe-style beat-'em-up look is coming, and it looks fun as hell — swords, skeletons, and that old arcade energy. Then the ugly part: YouTube and Google throttling 2A content. Same old playbook, new week. We're not just complaining about it. The plan is simple — short videos, tag friends, stack the signal, and build something bigger than one clip dying in the algorithm. Grab a drink. This one's all over the map on purpose.

Pixel Perfect Videojuegos, el programa de radio de ninguna radio, vuelve con un episodio cargado de actualidad y debate. La industria del videojuego sigue viviendo un momento convulso con movimientos de precios imposibles, filtraciones históricas y el futuro del formato físico en el ojo del huracán.En Lo Más Fresco nos metemos de lleno en el salseo del año: las brutales filtraciones de GTA VI. Un usuario misterioso bajo el nombre de Cyberleek ha puesto patas arriba los planes de Rockstar filtrando builds jugables completas, descubriendo hasta 6 estrellas en las persecuciones policiales, indicador de gasolina y una densidad de población sin precedentes. Analizamos si estas filtraciones desvelan el juego definitivo o si el verdadero peligro es la deriva de la privacidad y el acoso de la comunidad.Antes del tema principal, abrimos el bloque de actualidad con cuatro frentes clave: el profundo análisis del nuevo material de GTA VI, un repaso a lo que ha dado de sí la Gamescom 2026, la indignante nueva subida de precio de Xbox en España (alcanzando los 799,99 euros para la Series X) y los primeros y preocupantes rumores sobre el coste de PlayStation 6.En Made in Japan cruzamos hasta Colonia para analizar la Gamescom 2026. Analizamos las luces y sombras del Opening Night Live de Geoff Keighley, que arrancó reconociendo la crisis del sector y el encarecimiento del hardware por la IA. Entre los grandes protagonistas repasamos el tráiler extendido de Fable, la actualización técnica de The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered, el oscuro Gears of War: E-Day, el remake de Heroes of Might and Magic III y la sorpresa de LEGO Skylines.La actualidad continúa con la llegada de Crimson Desert con doblaje completo al español, el salto de los juegos de PS Plus a Steam mediante la app no oficial Asobi, la jugada de Xbox con su sistema Disc-To-Digital y las primeras previsiones sobre el brutal e hiperviolento Wolverine de Insomniac. Además, cerramos la sección de lanzamientos de septiembre con nombres como The Blood of Dawnwalker, Trine 6, Control Resonant y Minecraft Dungeons 2.En nuestros Titulares repasamos la serie de animación de Golden Axe, el 40 aniversario de Metroid, la beta cerrada de Crazy Taxi: World Tour y la confirmación oficial de la compra de Electronic Arts por parte del fondo saudí.En Quemando Controles, Nacho nos trae sus impresiones con Resident Evil Requiem, mientras que Dani se adentra en Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered.Y como siempre, recordamos pasarse por la web de Patreon para disfrutar de los podcasts a 320kbps antes que nadie y apoyar al programa. ¡Gracias por seguir acompañándonos una semana más!
Paramount's new Golden Axe cartoon seems to be a takedown of the OG arcade game, and it's just about as cringey as every other ironic millennial "adult" cartoon circa 2018. Except it's now 2026, and gamers are not happy. RIP this show and Sega's millions. Watch the podcast episodes on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.

This week on BWN, the Nerds begin their review of the new DC Series, Lanterns. Did this new series, which hopes to rectify some of the problems that have existed with Green Lantern ever since Ryan Reynolds donned an animated suit, succeed in its pilot episode? Are some of the online complaints warranted? How big of a pimp is John Stewart? We address all of that and more in our review. We then take a quick trip to the Trailer Park to look at the latest trailers for Mr. T: I Pity The Fool, Wildwood, and Golden Axe. In News Around the Nerdosphere, we take a look at Spider-Man: Brand New Day continuing to set records, how much extra footage we are going to get in Avengers: Endgame Encore, Yahya Abdul-Mateen putting Marvel on blast for their handling of Wonder-Man, and, speaking of Marvel, are their plans for 2028 becoming too ambitious? All that plus confirmation of Season 2 of IT: Welcome to Derry, and a surprising announcement that National Treasure 3 is officially happening!

Our "Big Question" for this week is "So there has been a lot of back & forth about the latest episode of "Star Trek Strange New Worlds" ("Level-Five Transporter Accident") with people getting outright mad while others just enjoyed it for the fun episode it is meant to be.

Number 1040Get ready for this episode, as it gets a little spicy! Have you see the rash of absolutely garbage headlines on gaming websites? Well it's time to let those outlets have it! We also dive into the backlash with the upcoming Golden Axe cartoon, we talk about the latest Switch 2 sales numbers, and one person is just getting started on their Big Walk journey while two others have seen all there is to see.
Sega's Golden Axe is back as a ten episode adult animated series, and all ten episodes land on Paramount Plus on September 16. Mike McMahan (Star Trek: Lower Decks, Solar Opposites) and Joe Chandler (American Dad!) co-created it, with Matthew Rhys, Liam McIntyre, Lisa Gilroy, Danny Pudi and Carl Tart voicing the cast.I care about this one because of the pedigree behind it. McMahan and Chandler are two names I trust in adult animation, and the premise sounds like it knows exactly what it is: Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilius Thunderhead reuniting to fight Death Adder again, stuck in a loop where the villain never stays dead. What breaks that loop is Hampton Squib, a brand new adventurer who is completely out of his depth, and I have questions about whether he is meant to read as DLC or as the player's stand in. The cast is stacked top to bottom, with Matthew Rhys as the angry dwarf Gilius Thunderhead, Liam McIntyre from Spartacus as Ax Battler, Lisa Gilroy as Tyris Flare, Danny Pudi as Hampton Squib, and Carl Tart as the panther warrior Chronos. Great creative team, great voice cast, a premise that plays with video game logic, and a binge drop instead of a weekly rollout.

As it's episode 80, we thought we'd mark the occasion with a bunch of 80's games! The book club is a triple decker this month, with Alex Kidd in Miracle World on the Master System, Metal Gear on the MSX2 and the arcade version of Golden Axe!The first half of this huge episode gets a bit more serious mind you, as we discuss Sony's extremely controversial decision to cease all production of physical media from 2028 onwards, and the kind of ripple effects this will have on the industry going forward. Once again, we outline the importance of video game preservation and what an all-digital future means for still being able to play games even four or five years after their release.Luckily, normal service resumes in the second half, as we discover how Alex Kidd once completely scuppered Tibbs' chances for romance, Ollie quickly loses interest in Tellybugs, Twitch blatantly lies to use by pretending we have friends, and we laugh at another Sony gaff, as they introduce their newest mascot - an anxiety-ridden cartoon bear designed to take the Hello Kitty fanbase by storm..

Super Retro Podcast x Homage Merch Drop: http://homage.com/SuperRetroOn this episode of the podcast, we reminisced about all those classic sayings our parents used to hit us with growing up, revisited Sega's legendary “Who the F*** Is Mario?” campaign from the height of the console wars, and talked about how recordable VHS tapes were basically our generation's Netflix. We also discussed why the lighting in our old schools was apparently terrible for our mental health, broke down an incredible 30-second clip featuring Michael Jordan and 2Pac at the peak of their careers in the same building—alongside Suge Knight and Dennis Rodman—and welcomed back the Super Retro Hotline. We highlighted our recent Homage x Starter photoshoot, officially launched our collaboration with Homage, showed off the Golden Axe arcade cabinet that Rob Manz personally delivered to us, covered Nostalgic News, checked out your fit checks, and, as always, got into a whole lot more.Today's episode was brought to you by Salty Water.

In this episode of Retro Titans, Phil sits down with coder, musician and game porter Ian "Hoffman" Ford — a veteran of the Amiga demoscene whose work has helped bring classic games to new audiences across modern retro platforms. From creating tracker music as a teenager during the UK home computer boom to porting iconic titles like Metal Gear, Shinobi, Golden Axe and Turrican, Ian has spent decades combining technical expertise with a passion for retro gaming. Equally at home composing soundtracks, designing sound effects and writing low-level code, he occupies a unique place in the modern retro scene. Together, Phil and Ian explore the worlds of game porting and retro game music, discussing what it takes to faithfully bring classic games to new hardware, how vintage systems shape the creative process, and why preserving the look, feel and sound of these games remains so important today. In this episode, we explore: 1️⃣ The art of porting classic games What really happens when a game moves from one platform to another — and why understanding both the original hardware and the destination system is only the beginning. 2️⃣ From the Amiga demoscene to modern retro development How a teenage passion for music, coding and creativity evolved into a career spanning decades of retro gaming projects. 3️⃣ Music, sound and atmosphere in retro games From tracker music and game soundtracks to sound design and audio production, Ian explains how he creates music that enhances the retro gaming experience. 4️⃣ Head Over Heels: Return to Blacktooth A behind-the-scenes look at one of the most anticipated modern retro releases, and the work involved in bringing the Atari ST project to the Amiga. 5️⃣ Preserving gaming history for new generations From Metal Gear on the MSX to modern Neo Geo projects, Ian discusses why classic games still matter and how they continue to inspire today's developers and players. Ian also shares stories from the Amiga demo scene, explains how a chance discovery of the Metal Gear source code sparked his first major porting project, discusses his work on Seekanoid and Roguecraft DX, and reveals the games that shaped his life — from Tetris and Journey to the Neo Geo classic Neo Turf Masters.

My Arcade continues to build on its reputation for creative, nostalgia‑driven gaming hardware with a new lineup that blends classic arcade experiences with modern design. The company's approach focuses on reimagining retro play in ways that feel familiar to longtime fans while remaining accessible to new audiences. At CES 2026, My Arcade introduced several products that highlight this philosophy, including a jukebox‑inspired gaming speaker, an updated handheld system, and a growing catalog of licensed titles from major gaming publishers.The company's design direction emphasizes playful form factors, authentic arcade aesthetics, and user‑friendly features. These elements support a wide range of players, from collectors seeking display‑worthy hardware to casual gamers who want portable access to classic titles.Jukebox Player Combining Music and Arcade GameplayOne of the most distinctive products introduced this year is the Jukebox Player, a device that merges a portable Bluetooth speaker with built‑in arcade games. The unit features a retro‑styled cabinet design with illuminated accents and a front‑facing speaker system engineered for everyday music listening. The inclusion of Bandai Namco titles transforms the device into a hybrid entertainment system that supports both audio playback and classic gaming.The concept reflects a growing trend in which users combine music and gameplay in shared environments. By integrating both functions into a single device, the Jukebox Player offers a compact and visually striking option for fans who want a multifunctional piece of retro‑inspired hardware.GameStation Retro Go Handheld SystemMy Arcade also showcased the GameStation Retro Go, a handheld system designed to deliver an extensive library of classic titles. The device includes more than two hundred games from Bandai Namco and Capcom, offering a broad selection of arcade and console favorites. The eight‑inch display uses a four‑by‑three aspect ratio, which preserves the original presentation of retro games and avoids the stretching common on widescreen devices.The system includes a built‑in kickstand for tabletop play and a rechargeable battery for portable use. A key feature is the company's Smart Glow technology, which illuminates only the controls required for the selected game. This guidance helps players navigate large game libraries without guesswork. The latest version of Smart Glow adds turbo and macro functionality, allowing users to assign rapid‑fire actions or complex move sequences to dedicated buttons. These enhancements support both casual play and more advanced gaming styles.Expanding Licensed Retro TitlesMy Arcade continues to grow its licensed catalog, with Sega joining Bandai Namco and Capcom as a major partner. Recent releases include Sonic‑themed tabletop units and joystick players that have performed strongly in retail environments. Additional Sega‑based products are planned, including devices featuring Shinobi, OutRun, Golden Axe, and Streets of Rage. These systems incorporate themed controls, illuminated marquees, and gameplay faithful to the original titles.The company also offers Pixel Pockets, a line of fully playable keychain systems that include complete game ROMs rather than abbreviated versions. These miniature devices appeal to collectors and fans who want portable access to authentic retro gameplay.ConclusionMy Arcade's CES 2026 lineup demonstrates a continued commitment to creative hardware design and authentic retro gaming experiences. The Jukebox Player blends music and arcade play in a unique form factor, while the GameStation Retro Go expands handheld gaming with a large library and intuitive control guidance. The company's growing partnerships with major publishers further strengthen its position in the retro gaming market. As interest in classic games continues to rise, My Arcade's products offer a blend of nostalgia, innovation, and accessibility for players of all ages.Interview by Scott Ertz of F5 Live: Refreshing Technology.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

Send Catherine a text Message“He who runs after two hares will catch neither.” Japanese proverbFeelings of emptiness, lack, greed, dishonesty--- are any of us immune from this experience? The number of stories that revolve around this problem suggest a near universal need to meet this challenge.We commonly associate greed with an insatiable need for more and more money, but one can be greedy for all types of things: food, love, power, attention, sex, status, books, time, even spiritual knowledge. This Japanese story is one that appears in similar forms in other traditions. It offers a lens for reflection.Support the showEmail Catherine at drcsvehla@mythicmojo.comPost a positive review on apple podcasts!

In the late 1980s, a new multiplayer beat-em-up hit arcades, Golden Axe. It took what other games had done and added new depth to combat, a healthy dose of magic, and wrapped it all in Conan-style sword & sorcery. It wasn't just a hit with me and my friends, but an international success that spawned multiple ports and sequels, each adding something to the franchise and the brawler genre as whole. I loved playing this game in the arcade, but one of my best memories of it was wrapped up in the Sega Genesis version. So I start the show discussing how a game rental turned into the last all-night game sessions I ever had with a childhood friend. Then I move onto the game itself. I talk about the company and people who made it, its release, reception, and technology. While I might not be a Golden Axe master, I have played it through several times, so I also share some of my strategies for the game. Golden Axe remains significant for its role in shaping the beat 'em up genre. So significant that it looks like we might be getting a TV show based on it. One can hope that this will lead to future sequels or reimaginations of the original. And why not? With its blend of action, fantasy, and cooperative play, it helped set a new standard and one of its sequels was arguably even better. This is an important title in the history of video games, so I hope you give the show a listen and then go check out the game for yourself. If you can bring a friend, the experience will be all the better.

We're playing two not very classics of their respective genres today as we go back to the back half of the 90s to play an early action game and a relatively early 3D platformer. We're kind of split on which game we prefer along lines I expect you'd predict, but we both had a pretty good time with both games anyway! Also, before that, Jackson gives the MOTHER of all segment 1 updates. At 16:15 or so until 1:15:30 Jackson's Audacity file broke and we had to use the backup. Em's a little quiet during this section but it's mostly okay. I did my best with the edit. Sorry about that!
