Pinball and video games. We're a mixed gaming podcast, but pinball and video games are our bread and butter, and our two permanent segments. Pinball generally receives the most attention of the two. We also, on occasion, cover other types of gaming (namely tabletop games such as RPGs and card games). We aren't known as eclectic for nothing!

Episode 218 - Open Source Blues
Note: Light spoilers regarding vaults in the Fallout TV series (won't be spoilers to those familiar with the games).
Pinball: We discuss Homepin's open-source Blues Brothers pinball reveal, that Dutch Pinball supposedly will reveal Back to the Future Pinball at Pinball Expo, and we discuss a variety of our ThemeDreams(tm).
Video Games: We cover Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons and the Fallout TV series. From there, we talk about the surge in Fallout gaming post-TV series, Microsoft's games sales versus console sales, Blizcon being cancelled, and the restructuring of Embracer Group.
