    Still Loading #395: Medal of Honor: Allied Assault w/ Justin Grandfield

    Punch a Nazi month is coming to a close once again and to round it out this year I am joined by games writer and journalist Justin Grandfield to talk about Medal of Honor: Allied Assault! What makes the old Medal of Honor games so special? Are they able to walk they fine line of reverence for our past while also not glorifying it? Is it still a kickass first person shooter!? Justin and I dissect all of this and more in the finale of Punch a Nazi month. This game was the Medal of Honor game that had eluded me for many years. I only had the console games in the series and was desperate to get my hands on this and play it. When I finally did it did not disappoint. Play. This. Game.

    Still Loading #394: The Saboteur w/ Matt Storm

    In World War II the entirety of France was occupied by the Nazi's. The Saboteur, instead of looking at that time period through the lense of the Allied Expeditionary Force, looks at it through the eyes of the people who lived it. I'm joined by friend of the show Matt Storm to chat about the 2009 open world game The Saboteur. A game where you take control of the character Sean Devlin, an Irish race car driver and mechanic, as he exacts his revenge on the fascists that killed his best friend. What starts out as a simple revenge mission turns into something much larger as he fights to free Paris from the Nazis. Matt and I ADORED this game and we had a lot of fun chatting about what makes it so great. We also chat about why it seems to be so overlooked and why that may have been. If you want to punch some Nazis you cannot go wrong with this game. No spoilers for a while, so you can get a feel of the game without having to worry about the story being spoiled.

    Still Loading #393: Return to Castle Wolfenstein w/ Dave Pietrangelo

    Punch a N*zi month is back! Three new games all about punching some goddam fascists are being covered and to kick it off I am joined by returning guest, Dave Pietrangelo from Remember 64, to talk about the sequel to the OG FPS game. We are having fun storming the castle with Return to Castle Wolfenstein.  Return to Castle Wolfenstein was the first true sequel of the original Wolfenstein 3D since that game had an expansion but not a full-on sequel. Thankfully, even though this game wasn't developed by ID, it is freaking great. This game sticks to a simple FPS formula but it really works. Dave and I had a ton of fun chatting about this one and if you haven't played it yet go punch some N*zis and give it a try.

    Still Loading Mini #56: The Legend of Zelda Cartoon E11 w/ Luigi's Apartment

    Daddies, as we all know, like to be wet. In this episode of Still Loading I am joined by my co-host with the mo-host Dexter Morrill and returning guest Luigi's Apartment to break down episode 11 of the Legend of Zelda cartoon. Fairies in the Spring. We discuss the bizarre plan from Zelda's dad to make a waterpark and more specifically a water slide out of bricks, the bizarre plot that makes less sense than usual and lots of talk of wet daddies.

    Still Loading #392: Perfect Dark w/ Jiggylookback

    In the summer of 2000 the Nintendo 64 was on it's way out. The PlayStation 2, the sucessor to the N64 rival PlayStation, was coming out later that year and the GameCube was a still over a year away from release. The summer of 2000 was probably the last chance the N64 had of seriously competing in the console market before the next console generation was in full swing and boy howdy did Rare release a game to help usher out the N64 on a high note. Joining me this week is YouTuber Jiggylookback to talk about Rare's "sequel" GoldenEye, Perfect Dark. The game was a technical marvel for the time and really pushed the console to it's limits. Perfect Dark took what Rare learned from GoldenEye and expanded upon it. Not just both in terms of tech but also story and atmosphere. Jiggy and I had a great time chatting about Perfect Dark, why it's still looked on so fondly, where it could improve and also we ask the question... Why the name Elvis?

    Still Loading #391: Yoshi's Island w/ Eric Gess and Dave Pietrangelo

    The finale of Mario Month 2026 is here and it's on a game where you don't play as Mario!? Sort of? I am joined by Dave Pietrangelo of Remember 64 and Eric Gess of The Unlockables to talk about Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island. Or better known to all of us normies as, Yoshi's Island. Yoshi's Island is jam packed with whimsy, inventive gameplay, great mechanics and also the worst sound known to man, baby Mario crying. The three of us break down all we love and don't love about the game, about how Mario's crying is PTSD inducing for 3 grown men with kids of their own now and how this game, even all these years later, continues to leave a mark on gaming.

    Still Loading #390: Super Mario World w/ Zach from Classic Gaming Brothers and British Bond Addict

    When Nintendo transitioned from 8 bit to 16 bit, there was a lot of risk. It was not a sure fire thing that the public would adopt a new system, especially one that did not play the games for the existing Nintendo console they already owned. To help entice consumers they had to come out of the gate swinging and there was no harder punch to throw than launching the system with their flagship game mascot. Mario. For the fourth episode of Mario Month this year I am joined by Zach from the Classic Gaming Brothers podcast and Chris (aka the British Bond Addict) to talk about Mario's jump into the 16 bit generation. We are talking Super Mario World. We discuss what is so special about this game, about the endless Mario 3 vs World debate, the music, the visuals and a whole bunch of nostalgia.

    Still Loading #389: Super Mario Bros. 3 w/ Ty Schalter and Darren Hupke

    Hey Paisanos! It's the 3rd episode of Mario Month 2026! This week I am joined by Ty Schalter from the FunFactor podcast and Darren Hupke from Pixels and Polygons to chat about Super Mario Bros. 3! The true (?) sequel to Super Mario Bros. Mario 3 lives in rarified air as a contender for best Mario game along with Super Mario World (which will be next week's episode!). This debate will be forever ongoing but something that is not up for debate is just how amazing and influential this game was and still is. Ty, Darren and I had so much fun getting to dissect this game and it's mechanics. We also chat about it's visuals, music and some of it's development history! I don't have a huge personal history with this game in terms of amount of time spent playing it but I do credit this game for being the game that helped me fall in love with video games. The game that made me feel like I was controlling a cartoon on the TV. I don't think I'll ever fully be able to articulate how much this game means to me for that.
