"You guys give up, or you thirsty for more?!"

Even though it's almost been 9 years since releasing my 5-chapter retrospective review on a collection of games based on Columbus / the late Hughes' time-honored, holiday-themed film franchise...except split in 2 parts due to memory-saving & scheduling constraints at the time - why not a complete, restructured, and "no-longer-separate" edition?!

It's also where I attempted to include 2 special guests for the sake of giving my usual "solo-commentating routing" a well-deserved break, but had no other alternative but to stick with only 1 due to communication issues. This is for @BunnyEarsTube (coordinated and curated by Macaulay Culkin, aka Kevin himself)!

The overall lineup of this now-uncut variation is as follows:

1:50 - A detailed, plot-heavy lookback on the franchise (despite the recent release of the infamous Disney+ reboot Home Sweet HA, which ISN'T MENTIONED HERE), followed by...

HOME ALONE (NES, THQ/Bethesda Softworks 1991)

8:51 - HOME ALONE (Super NES & Game Boy, THQ/Imagineering 1991)

15:43 - HOME ALONE 2: Lost in New York (NES, Super NES & Game Boy, THQ/Imagineering 1992 - with the debut of Special Guest @RileySkye100)

22:24 - HOME ALONE (Genesis & Game Gear, Sega/Brian A. Rice/Al Baker & Associates 1992), and refer to the last-minute warning just before the segment

29:59 - HOME ALONE 2 - Lost in New York (Genesis, Sega/Interactive Designs 1993)

Other than this, Happy Holidays one and all! Be sure to scope out and purchase my merch at Society6 (Though, there'll also be a Redbubble outlet open ASAP), and expect the SEASON 8 Premiere to arrive next month! This is dedicated to

HOME ALONE is, of course, the property of 20th Century Studios (through Disney; then 20th Century Fox Film Corp.) / the late John Hughes [R.I.P.]!
