Classic Games Podcast
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.

HEADS UP! We are changing our name! By the time episode 239 comes around, we will be the Classic Games Podcast. By necessity, this means we'll also have a new logo. So watch your feed in whatever app you listen on. You shouldn't have to do anything, but when you see a new podcast logo you don't recognize, that's (probably) us. The is the first stage of more announcements to come ...

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.
