For this week’s Mystery Steam Reviews, The PC Gaming Weekspot boys discuss pouring alcohol on a gun to make fire bullets, being unable to make the main character pregananant, and adorable robot friends. This MSR is all about video games with Metacritic scores of 60 or lower. Let us know how many you get right in the comments.

Mystery Steam Reviews is a video game quiz we do every Monday on our weekly video podcast, The PC Gaming Weekspot. It was originally only meant to last for around 5-10 minutes on each show, but it’s grown into a monster. A PC game quiz monster that we think you’ll enjoy, so we’ve decided to start clipping it out of each show for your viewing pleasure.
The rules are simple — it’s a video games quiz where we have to guess games from their Steam reviews — but let’s make them sound convoluted, anyway:
Colm and Matthew both bring three Steam reviews to the MSR arena (yes, arena), but they omit the name of the game each review is for. Their opponent must correctly guess the name of that game, including any numbers or subtitles. However, there is some leeway for things such as “Complete Edition” or “Definitive Edition.” One correct answer = one point.
While both combatants have 90 seconds on each Mystery Steam Review, they also have help in the form of three lifelines. These can be used at any stage during battle, and pause the 90-second timer. Each lifeline can only be used once.
Question allows whoever is in the hot seat to ask a simple yes or no question, as long as the question isn’t, “is the name of the game [insert name of the game here]?”. When Second Opinion is used, the man in the warm chair will get to hear a second Steam review of the same game. And when Genre is activated, the genre of the game is revealed to the man with the fiery arse.

Matthew, you're the salty one i'm afraid 😂
Who else immediately googled pregnant sonic…
Matthew is the Salt of the Earth
Well, mommy and daddy won't be getting a divorce this week!
What amazing social dynamics in this weeks episode.
I love the tetchiness and bitterness, it's so much funnier than when they get along.
Except that deadly premonition review it was very fair
We all love the banter, glad that you guys seemed to be having more fun this week!
Matthew responded to last week's disaster with a rotter of review choices. His shame in the second review….
Fun fact: “Three Star Wars” was the headline in my local paper when Star Wars Episode 1 came out.
i want to pat myself on the back for getting Matthew's last one despite never having played the game (though it's been on my wishlist since BEFORE it released…probably should just remove it at this point).
That Deadly Premonition review was spot on, Zach.
