Video game trivia might not be your opening salvo on a first date, but here on the Internet, it's serious business.
Fans of #5facts asked us for a gaming show and we have delivered unto thee. Behold! Five fresh nuggets of gaming minutiae, including Mortal Kombat II's blockbuster debut, the dominance of Doom and the Google Doodle that took a bite out of the world economy.
We'd like to extend a very special thanks to the famous Peter Gallagher for appearing on our show this week. You can see Peter in USA's hit drama Covert Affairs.
And a hat tip to YouTuber SongeLeReveur, who let us use his awesome bluegrass cover of the Super Mario World theme song. Check out his channel for more great video game music.
