Who would have thought that Killer Instinct is still one of the most hype fighting games all around? Do you ever go down Youtube rabbit holes to find out how 'Unga Bunga' the Soviet Union is, dead cults in MMOs, or how crazy North Korea will be in order to keep its image squeaky clean? Whether it's about these or going to Centralia, Pennsylvania because you may be too big of a Silent Hill nerd, the Scrubverse crew gathered once again to talk video games and more controversial statements for the whole family to enjoy.

The CMOS battery of Scrubverse won't die out anytime soon, but your PS4 will unless something is done! No jailbreaks are needed here, as the Fuerte himself: Eddie returns! The group talks yet again about game preservation, laugh about anti-Dungeons and Dragons movies, Goofy's carnal desires, and get confused about butter flavored sandwiches.
