Now jump up and down and then walk backwards through that door... well done you have unlocked: Secret Level. Or maybe just subscribe to Amazon Prime? The Bald Banditos are back once again with a Side Quest! Tim Miller's Secret Level is an interesting video game anthology series that brings to life an array of games - old and new. But can he dodge the curse fifteen times? Will Neill repeat himself about repeatability? And is Gudni clearly intimidated by Neill's vast amount of research? Only one way to find out (HINT: It's that play button just above - yeah that one).

A true marksman doesn't need a second shot, but yet here we are with a reboot in 2015's Hitman: Agent 47.  In a world of shady organisations, potential super powers, and limited places to find your favourite flowers, 47 must kill some targets, or protect some targets... do something with some targets... it is all strictly need to know, and the audience apparently never needs to know. Why does a master of disguise shave his head? If chunks fly off you, are you really bullet proof? And nobody talk about the Olyphant in the room. Is this wet work or just our tears?!

Your favourite hairless and heirless duo journey through the realm of the Krug, the miscast, and oh so many repetitive fight scenes, on their quest to find good video game adaptations. Can Uwe deliver Lord of the Rings for half the price? Can the screen handle the sexiness of both Statham and Burt Reynolds? Was there any scenery left after Lillard and Liotta were done chewing? And can Ron Perlman talk a turnip out the ground?
