    Episode 199 - Dark Forces

    When Doom released to the masses in the early 90s, the newly minted "first person shooter" (FPS) genre became insanely popular, with countless developers attempting to capture the lighting in a bottle that Id Software became famous for.  While Doom would feature hordes of demons just waiting to be mowed down, other games took different approaches to bringing their own first person shooter experiences to the public, with one of the most surprising entrants into the FPS market being LucasArts.  The adventure game behemoth decided to use its own Star Wars intellectual property to create the kind of first person shooter that simply hadn't existed up to this point in history, which is what would result in the creation of the DOS FPS classic, Dark Forces. Learn how the game was made, discover why LucasArts decided to make a first person shooter set in the Star Wars universe in the first place, and listen in as we determine whether it's still worth your time to take the fight to the Empire, FPS style, even today.

    Episode 195 - Action 52 (The Games: 1 - 13)

    Our coverage of Action 52 continues in this episode as we begin tackling the games of Action 52, and specifically, the first thirteen titles included in the package, which represents a quarter of the overall set of gaming experiences included in Action 52.  We've got 39 more games to get through before we can definitively pass judgment on Action 52, and admittedly, this one is getting bigger than I ever anticipated. Be sure to let me know if you want us to continue covering Action 52 next week, or if we should take a short breather before returning to the rest of the game.  A poll has been posted on Discord to gather feedback, so definitely let me know what you think!
