Customer Reviews
Catching Up
Could not recommend this podcast highly enough, the title of the podcast is accurate, always catching up and it’s great reminiscing and hearing about older games.. I myself am ‘catching up’ with some episodes I had missed.. you won’t be disappointed.
We all have a pile of shame...
Great show for those who grew up with the older generations of consoles but still love modern games too. It’s introduced to some hidden older gems, or finally convinced to pick up more recent games I may have overlooked.
Great to have this show back!
Enjoyed this podcast when it first came out and was sad to see it go away for a while. Now it's back and with weekly episodes too -- love it!
