You're officially well into the depths of nerd-dom when you refer to a hockey stick as a "hockey club". Love it.

I'd always heard the "B and A" thing on the NES was because the Japanese often read things right to left. Basically a localization mistake.

I was always a Genesis guy, people usually overlook the classics on that system.

There's a sliding kick in this game that's really useful during some situations. It also does double damage. You have to jump forward, hold diagonally down and then attack just as you're hitting the ground.

I love James and Mike cool stories, good video editors, inspiring , hardcore, funny , etc

this whole game is about patterns, you can do this whole game without getting hit once :)

Splatterhouse 1 is still the best Splatterhouse in every regard in my opinion.

One of the running jokes about the Joker in the comics is that his backstory changes all the time and he even acknowledges it "If I'm going to have a backstory I'd prefer it to be multiple choice" which is one of the reasons in the Nolan movie he tells a different story every time when he explains how he got the smile.

I used to think it was pretty weird seeing all these youtube/internet guys loving SNES and that. In the UK nearly everyone had a Mega Drive. I can't imagine SNES being the boss. It's all about Mega Drive to me. Even though now I have gone back and played and loved a bunch of SNES games. Still seems a bit weird.

"Is that his face!?" Wtf its his mask ahahah

Splatterhouse to is an underrated franchise with so much potential. I wish Namco would do more with it. Splatterhouse 2 was my favorite in the original series.

Those Genesis buttons are the loudest thing ever. I love the sound of vintage games being played. The creaking controller shell included. It's like a tension indicator; with the creaky crescendo at the boss fights.

man how could not think to duck when the purple dudes jab their arm out.

Never had a Genesis nor played the Splatterhouse series. I guess I missed out. But now after watching this, I'm more intrigued to want to try it out.

Great pick. 'Zombies Ate My Neighbors' for this month!

it's 12:11 am, welp might as well watch this than go on a cinemassacre marathon. your stuff never gets old James! you rock too Mike!

Totally wasn't expecting you guys to bust out some GG Allin quotes. James NAILED that impression, lol.

''it's gross, it's putrid, it's all the the things you want'' james - 2015

It's great listening to James' and Mike's stories. I don't care for let's plays but still I listening to every story you tell from your childhood. Good job guys!!

James and Mike bring a smile to my face no matter what game they're playing together. Great stuff!

"How many of these fucking cocks?!" -Mike Matei 2015

This is my favorite classic horror spoof game besides Zombies Ate My Neighbors! Keep on splattering!

I owned this game growing up. My brother & I would play it all the time. This & many other SEGA Genesis exclusives made me proud to be a SEGA Genesis owner back in the day.

This is the episode of James & Mike Mondays that made me laugh the hardest. Well done, guys!

You guys should play MANHUNT! Anyone else agree?

Get your hands on 2 Crude Dudes and play that together. Hilarious and fun as heck.

I've had this old childhood memory, of going to my friends house when I was about nine and playing a genesis game he rented. All I could remember about the game was playing as Jason Voorhees where you could smash opponents into a 🧱 With a stick. I couldn't remember the name of the game nor did my friend who rented it but I was blown away it. I'm 35 now and just now realized it's "Splatter House 2". Thanks James

The squeaking grunt of the d pad brings back memories. I never knew there was Splatterhouse games other than the one on PS3 until watching you guys play them.

"Shouldn't have gone for the bone" - Mike Matei, 2015

One of my favourites, a very tricky game that is for sure! Great job as always, looking forward to more Monster Madness!

sega genesis classics , pantera t-shirt , ggalin references and trivia , hardcore gaming , cool guys ... made my monday

haha that GG Alin reference, I love that you guys know who that legend of a guy is

Am I the only one screaming at the screen when they are on the elevator, "Stop jumping!"

I was lucky enough to have the Master System, then the Mega Drive 2. My uncle had the nes, the snes and the mega cd so I had all bases covered.

I love you guys and I love James & Mike Mondays but watching you having trouble at most games is amazing...when you take turns I laugh so hard "here you try" like that's going to be helpful!!!

Mike is always tryin to go for the bone.

I love the Splatterhouse series, my childhood fears.

Going for that bone was a "bone-headed" move, Mike!

Even when you don't get very far, your videos are really entertaining! Keep it up guys!

Mike and James, Love the way you set up the shot of both of you...up close, personal---like the camera was set waaay back, but then zoomed in---Very nicely "Cinematic" !

I swear it seems like they get baked before recording lol

"A big, blistering ball sack puking green slime in your face" "Yeah, I mean who wouldn't want that?" - Mike Matei, 10/4/15 (Disclaimer: I know what he means! Its just funny)

Just to clarify about the Jokers origin... or to unclarify. The Joker has several origins. Each is a story he's told. Only one, or maybe none, are true. It's all a joke told by Joker.

I love that sweet sound of buttons being pressed.

Never thought I'd hear you guys bring up GG Allin.

i loved the final part when james yells "im done with this" after they said splatterhouse it's not a game for pussies hahaha

hell yeah thanks for all the new content. i'm glad I lived through the summer. you guys rock.

Damn the SplatterHouse games seem like the perfect games for James seeing as he is such a horror fanatic. I can't believe he never got to play them when he was growing up.

Now I want to play the 360 game and unlock the originals again. Good times!

About that conversation James and Mike were having in the beginning of the video, you see, that's the good thing about the 4th generation, all 3 of the main game systems back then were really good! I'm a bit too young but I managed to grow up with a Super Nintendo, but when I got my Wii, through Virtual Console I discovered the systems that competed with the Super Nintendo, the Genesis and the Turbografx 16, and I've loved all 3 4th gen systems a LOT! Games like Shinobi 3, Ristar, Soldier Blade and Ys book 1 and 2 blew my mind! I didn't have games like that on the Super Nintendo! Each system has its own plethora of amazing games and all 3 are very much worth re-discovering even to this day! I still love the Super Nintendo the best because it was my childhood system, but I have a very soft spot for the Genesis and the Turbografx in my heart (especially the turbo which grew to be my 3rd favourite game system of all time, losing only to the SNES and the GBA)

"No, fuck that, I'm done" - Best ending ever.

I love splatter house. I remember as a kid seeing it and was shocked at the amount of gore. Loved it.

splatterhouse 3 is pretty badass

Come on, guys. Put some effort into it. Get the BONE!!! Kick it... Punch it... Splatter the house! Don't jump so much in the elevator. :D

“Yeah hes got the hockey club” -Mike

That elevator is Hell. This game would have scared me as a kid, I used to be scared of everything back then XD

I definitely see the price of Splatterhouse for xbox 360 and ps3 going up after this since you can unlock Splatterhouse 1-3 on it.

I noticed that you guys always run into the enemies, you don't read their movements at all. It's so easy for them to land a hit on you when you just mindlessly run at them. Take your time and focus, there's no timer in this game.

Great choice of a game to highlight for October. Looking forward to Splatterhouse 3 now.

Nice! I look forward to these every Monday! Keep up the great work guys! :)

Splatterhouse sounds like it should be a game where you have diarrhea and you run around a huge house in search of a toilet before time runs out. If you fail...SPLATTERHOUSE!

super nintendo, sega genesis when i was dead broke man i couldnt picture this

A Whovian who appreciates the old-school stuff. Respect, brother.

Haha, I remember beating this Live, it was brutal! Thanks for playing this you nerds, I love this series!

it's b then a because in Japan they read right to left

One of the best games on the Genesis.

My gosh, the original Splatterhouse video was a year ago? Wow, keep making great videos! :)

Holy crap, last video they did i commented a question about what James thought of the old Doctor who series, and here he is, next video, going over the same topic! Amazing coincidence!

I hadn't much thought about reasons behind the letter order on NES controls.... but now that I think about it, the general right to left reading order of Japanese might be why we have B and A rather than A and B...

I like your attitude's, I'm in my 30's so I'm familiar with the game gem's you guy's are pulling from. See I said the same remark as Splatterhouse 1, the thing is I am amazed with your production. ggrreeaatt ssttuuff !!

I love the sounds the character and the creachers make. Its more funny than creepy.

Loved Flashback:The Quest for Identity on Genesis back in the day. Rented it to play at a buddy's house for a sleepover and got hooked on that game. I still go back and play that game once or twice a year some 22 odd years later

Mike, you look like Benny from Fallout New Vegas in this vid lol

I felt like I could do that level they were stuck on.

Idk why but the stage with the faces popping out of the walls always freaked me out when i was a kid lol...good reviews thou, brings back memorys of my youth

I had all the systems....he's, genesis, snes , Sega CD, Atari, etc. My childhood was awesome. Every room in the house had a different system hooked up. Early nineties.....The best

One thing I never understood about these Splatterhouse games is how to do the damn slide.

"Ḩò͘o!̀͘" "Ḩò͘o!̀͘ Ḩò͘o!̀͘"

JAMES HAS THE STAYING POWER WHEN IT COMES TO TOUGH GAMES FOR SURE.

to do the slide, jump and perform a ryu's fireball and punch right before you land - its really helpful. I love this game, play it on my genesis all the time, the bosses are worth checking out

You guys should play the 2010 reboot of this series for an episode of J&M Mondays.

I feel like these games would kick my ass haha

Childhood memories right here. I loved these games.

Haven't watched Cinemassacre in a while. Good to be back.

Watching James played this game makes me question his complaints in many AVGN episodes. Maybe the games are fine but he's just bad at playing video game? Of course there are some legit hard games like Silver Surfer and Battle Toad but a game like Splatterhouse or Code Name:Viper from last week is not that hard at all. Why the hell didn't you read enemy's movement? Of course you're going to get your ass handed if you run into enemies like an idiot like that.

Why is mike jumping in the elevator level? What a derp.

"How many of the fucking cocks?" I had to laugh way too much :D

I love how James watches Doctor Who, it's one of the greatest things on TV in my opinion. Basically James you just have to start at 2005 when the reboot started with "Rose." They fill people in on the past episodes that haven't seen it (like me.) Great series just fantastic and you guys are too. Keep up the good work!

Another problem with watch Doctor Who from the beginning is that chunks of it are missing. Footage forever lost. Nearly all of the 2nd Doctor's run is gone. Maybe some of the 3rd's.

Yall should play the haunting ft. Poulterguy

the soundtrack to splatterhouse series in particular this game is beyond classic.

damn, i wish i could show you guys more of the game. its amazing.

You need to play the FC (NES) one, only released in Japan.

Beavis and Butt-Head for sega genesis. Seriously, is a fun co-op game. Give it a try guys!

I like these videos because theyre really down to earth. Most other youtubers are really biased about anything other than what theyre nostalgic about and usually just talk shit. and though these two are obviously nes freaks. No matter what they play, they dont really care too much about the platform or if its an obscure nitch, its just them trying the games they want to play.

James and Mike Mondays Drinking Game: Every time you hear Mike or James say "Yeaaah" in one of these videos, take a drink.

Splatterhouse 3 is the fucking best !!! you gotta play the 360/ps3 next time !!

Can't wait for Splatterhouse 3 review!

i cant wait to play this on my sega genesis mini 2 on Christmas :D

I had this game as a kid and only ever got as far as you guys did , now I don't feel so bad
