    All Hail the Speedrun! - A Thinkpiece

    I have been fascinated by the idea of the speedrunning of video games since I found it several years ago. In this episode, I take an outsiders view of this corner of the hobby and what it could mean for retro gaming and for the historic preservation for games as a whole.

    Re-evaluating Fallout 4 in 2024 PS5 Upgrade

    Re-evaluating Fallout 4 in 2024 PS5 Upgrade

    Hello, listeners! On this episode I take a look back at Fallout 4, seen though a 2024 lens with the recent PS5 Upgrade, an obvious slap dash tie-in to the success of the streaming Fallout show. This game was not the start of this series being contentious among players, but it was about to bring things to a head for Fallout and Bethesda. I'll give you my thoughts on it, and we'll see where we end up.

    Let us step into our boots and gun belts once again listeners as I talk about yet another Wild West themed video game.

Wonderful!

Bite sized episodes that fit in a TON of information and fun commentary. One of the best video game based shows I have ever listened to!

Awesome show!

How this show manages to thoroughly give historical context, development history, gameplay and opinions in less than 10 minutes is beyond me. Fantastic show!

Fun trip down memory lane

Phil highlights video games that have left a standing impact on him, both good and bad. It’s great to hear about some of my favorites and learn about other incredible games I have yet to play…or should avoid.
