This week on the Game Deflators podcast, John and Ryan take a break from the standard gaming news discuss some of the more obscure news of the week. A look into the competitive Tetris scene and the new third playstyle, the Queen's golden Wii (we laughed too), and likely the creepiest video game easter egg you've ever scene in a gaming podcast episode of the weird, interesting and obscure.
To take things back to normal, the guys play and review Splatterhouse for the TurboGrafx 16. While the game is priced in the $100 range, what did the guys think about its value in comparison to the average TurboGrafx game?

This week on the Game Deflators podcast, the guys interview the original Mortal Kombat artist, Paul Niemeyer. John and Ryan dive in deep to discuss Paul's illustrious career, stories on his life as an artist, and his thoughts on the upcoming Mortal Kombat movie.
An artist of over 30 years, Paul began his career at Bally/Midway and created art for games like Tapper, PacMan Plus, Super PacMan, Professor PacMan, TRON, Satan's Hollow, Spy Hunter, WACKO, and an endless, anonymous list of prototype games. Paul has worked on a number of gaming projects over the years, but none have been more prestigious or well know than his work on Mortal Kombat. In 1992, Paul created the final illustrations of the Mortal Kombat logo and the artwork on the cabinet, control panels, and the header for one of the most well known games in video game history!
