Though the recently departed David Bowie was an incredibly prolific artist, you can count the amount of video games he's appeared in on a single hand.

That said, if you're a child of the '80s, you undoubtedly discovered Bowie through his enigmatic role as The Goblin King in 1986's Labyrinth. Lucky for us, there happen to be two video game interpretations of this Jim Henson film: a Famicom release, and LucasArts' (then Lucasfilm Games) very first adventure game. So, to honor the wonderful life and career of David Bowie, I'll be playing both of these games live on USgamer's Twitch channel, all while fielding questions and comments from our lovely viewers.

It all starts on USgamer's Twitch.tv channel today at 4:00pm PT/6:30pm ET—or you can stay on this page and watch the stream from here. And if you can't make it, don't worry; our streams are always backed up on our YouTube channel. And if you're reading this after the stream has already happened, you'll see that version embedded below.
