One (very) badass action adventure guy. One lightsaber. One series of stiff animations in the cutscenes. And one game that may have stood the test of time? For this new episode of SVGA, Hugo and Robert go back to Jedi Outcast, the 2002 game from the “good” Raven Software.

The year is 1998 : from Blizzard Entertainment, already known for WarCraft I and II, and Diablo, comes StarCraft. And almost 25 years later, how does this game holds up? For the 20th episode of the SVGA podcast, Hugo Prévost and Robert Hiltz restart the galactic war between the Terran, the Zerg and the Protoss and try to see if this classic was a gem, or a game that killed a genre.

Is there some place left for classic real-time strategy games? Is it possible to recreate some of that 90's and early 2000's feeling, without be accused of copying Command and Conquer, StarCraft and the others? For this 19th episode of SVGA, Hugo Prevost sits down with John Williams, one of the two developpers working on the upcoming indie RTS DORF.

An evil empire whose conquest will not be complete until a dark lord gets his hands on the content of your head; explosions and violent combat in space; a strange and mysterious base to explore... And all the cheesy and badly acted FMV you could wish for. For the 18th episode of the SVGA podcast, Hugo Prévost plays The Last Dynasty, a long forgotten game from 1995.

The year is 2007, and on the heels of Supreme Commander, here comes Forged Alliance, a stand-alone expansion that is probably still one of the best real-time strategy games of all time, even 15 years later. For this 17th episode of the SVGA podcast, Hugo Prévost dusts off the galactic war between the UEF, the Aeon, the Cybrans and the Seraphim.

Flight simulators are back! Or were they ever gone? Strap yourself into the cramped cockpit of your 90's fighter jet, it's time to talk about Tiny Combat Arena. For this new SVGA episode, Hugo Prévost and Robert Hiltz explore this early access game published by MicroProse that combines 90's graphics with newer physics models and semi-relalistic flying.

In space, can someone hear you construct a space station? Hugo Prévost sat down will Laura Körting, the co-founder and producer of LAB132, a german studio, to talk about the upcoming management game orbit.industries, in this new content for the SVGA podcast.

Would you like to play a game? Retro games have been making a comeback on PC for a while, now, and Zoom Platform, a digital storefront, is actively contributing to this vintage gaming renaissance. For this new episode of SVGA, Hugo Prévost and Robert Hiltz talk with Jordan Freeman, CEO and Founder of the company.

30 years! It's been 30 years since the first cohorts of 8x10 pixels creatures plunged to their death in Lemmings, the iconic puzzle game. Now, with a documentary about the making of that classic title launched late last year, Hugo Prévost and Robert Hiltz talk about the game... and the movie, on this 14th episode of SVGA.

This week, Hugo revisits what is probably his favorite game of all time: The Last Express, the Jordan Mechner adventure game from 1997.

Is collecting games equivalent to collecting stamps? What drives thousands of people to pay sometimes hundreds of dollars for old titles, even on PC, when said titles are available for a few dollars online? Hugo and Robert get a bit nostalgic (and philosophical) in this brand new DLC for the SVGA podcast. Links and additional info here-https://bit.ly/3CUhVin
