RadarPlays - Pepsiman

Whenever we see commercials for Pepsi-brand soft drinks, they rarely feature anything besides beautiful young people, prancing around and enjoying their soda way too much. But in Japan, it's a whole different story. Japanese citizens are protected by Pepsiman, a faceless hero who quenches the thirst of those in need. Lucas, Tom, and Ryan attempt to guide Pepsiman to carbonated victory in this week's RadarPlays Freaky, doing their best to avoid jackhammers, pedestrians, and colossal Pepsi cans along the way. This is likely the pinnacle of soda-centric games. In your face, Cool Spot.
