  1. Episode 125 - Mega Man X5

    Episode 125 - Mega Man X5

    Mega Man returns to Afterglow in this episode with one of the controversial releases......do I follow with what many people claim is a sub-par release or do I have other thoughts on this game? Without spoiling it, I will say I played this game much later than a lot of others which may have tempered my opinions on it.

    Bonus 10 - Retro Emulation Handhelds

    It's been a bit of a wait for this episode, I've been quite busy with some family and work related stuff and have had to put the show in slowdown for a bit. I've got a few partial episodes ready but nothing fully done, but I wanted everyone to have something to listen to in the meanwhile so I figured it was the perfect time to do another bonus episode, this one on my history with retro emulation handhelds! I cover the ones I've had in my past (which is quite the list looking back on it!) along with me looking forward to the new one I have pre-ordered.

  3. Episode 124 - The Binding of Isaac Rebirth

    Episode 124 - The Binding of Isaac Rebirth

    Something even newer than the last episode? I thought this was a retro show! In my defense the original version that spawned the Rebirth game came out back in 2011, 15 years ago, so I think this sorta qualifies (even if it can still be picked up brand new to this day!). Next episode we go old school, but myself and guest Wolfman both love this retro inspired game and wanted to chat about it some. Maybe you love it too, maybe you've never heard of it, but either way I hope you enjoy the show!

    Episode 123 - Need For Speed Most Wanted (2005)

    Something old.....something new! New for this show at least lol, cause on this episode I am joined by Main Quest host Keith Gasper as we talk about Need For Speed Most Wanted. It's rare that a racing game gets its hooks in me, but this one did back when the 360 was new. Lets see if it holds up today!

    Episode 119 - Arch Rivals

    Sports games are a rarity here on Afterglow, but every once in a while one will pop in, and this episode is one of them with the NES port of Arch Rivals, a BasketBrawl game. In this episode I go over my memories of what I feel is the foundation of the NBA Jam franchise.
