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.

This is the episode where we all learn to hate each other. After Rob drops a disappointing opinion bomb on Jay and Blake, all three take turns discussing games they dislike that everyone else loves. Perhaps a bad idea for the show’s first attempt at personal “top 3” lists.
