    The History of Valve Corporation and Steam

    Following a Patreon subscriber suggestion, I'll be doing a deep dive into the Valve Corporation, and how Gabe Newell and Mike Harrington pioneered the PC Gaming industry with their software company, and also Steam, a gaming storefront. I go over the humble beginnings of Valve, how we ALMOST lost Half Life 2 save for a lucy break from an intern, how many big software companies could have invested into Steam, and missed out big, and what kind of influence Valve and Steam have over the industry to this day.  Monica Harrington's blog post on Medium https://medium.com/@monicah428/the-early-days-of-valve-from-a-woman-inside-bf80c6b47961  Now part of the Hair of the Dogcast Network!

    The Video Game Crash of 1983: Lessons Learned?

    A slow rolling snowball starting with the first generation ended up into a massive avalanche in 1982 and 1983, which saw the video game market crash and almost doomed the home video game console market. While there were many factors that were predicted to cause its doom, poor oversight and oversaturation ultimately caused this crash, and a couple Japanese companies came in to save the day. I also talk about other notable failures in video game history of games like  Daikatana, Beyond Good and Evil, and many more.  Reference news article from October 1983: https://www.nytimes.com/1983/10/17/business/video-games-industry-comes-down-to-earth.html  Now part of the Hair of the Dogcast Network!

    The Best Video Game Magazines, Past and Present

    In today's episode I'll share some news on a new N64 system in the works, a Splatterhouse RPG, and playing games like Resident Evil 3 Nemesis and Shinobi. Our main talking point is video game magazines, and I share some great history on some of our favorites, like Nintendo Power, Game Pro, EGM, Game Informer, and so many more. NOTE: I feel pretty stupid that I never mentioned or paid respects to Martin Alessi, one of the original editors for EGM, who passed away in 2022. Rest in Peace.  Now part of the Hair of the Dogcast Network!
