Description

Each episode, we discuss at least one classic game each, looking at them from a modern perspective but also remembering where they stand in the evolution of game development. Sometimes they’re games we played and loved growing up. Sometimes they’re games we missed and are experiencing for the first time. Though we each have our core beloved genres, we all play a variety of games of various styles, eras, and platforms.

QUICK NOTE: When I say "Regardless of how good he thinks he is or is not at shmups" (in regards to MrSparkle), I'm referring to him often understating his skill and thinking he isn't that great even though he's quite good at shmups. I realized upon a second listen that it's possible I came off as an ass, saying he thinks he's better than he is. -Rob Anyway, it's three dollars if you wanna play the Nintendo 64.

Constant gulping/swallowing

Hearing the constant gulping and swallowing really grossed me out and distracted me from what was a fairly interesting conversation.

Yikes……

There’s a lot of blatantly wrong information on this podcast. Like actual facts, even about games they have allegedly just played.

Casual, but informed game discussion.

Great podcast with a casual feel talking about classic gaming on both console and pc. Not overly specialized and good guests.
