    Still Loading #409: NieR Replicant w/ Andrew Kinsey

    Once in a while a game comes along and enrages you beyond any words you have in your vocabulary but that game simultaneously also provides you with one of the most profound experiences you have ever had playing a video game. NieR Replicant is that game to me. Returning to the show is my good friend Andrew Kinsey from The EXP Point to help me break it all down. We discuss what this game does well, why I loathe it, why its amazing and why I never want to play it again.

    Still Loading #408: Long Island Retro Gaming Expo

    I have been told I NEED to go to Long Island Retro Gaming Expo for years now. And for years I kept making excuses like "Ohhhh I don't wanna drive through NYC" or "Ohhhhh hotels are dumb" etc. But let me tell you. They were all dumb excuses. This convention was amazing. On this episode I talk about my experience at the convention and you will also get to here from a number of really great guests about their experience at the convention! Make sure you follow all their stuff below! Check out Long Island Retro Gaming Expo HERE!

    Still Loading #407: Beyond the NES w/ Joe Bourrie

    The NES in North America got 677 games. In Japan there was over 1000 games released. In this episode I chat with returning guest Joe Bourrie to talk about a Kickstarter he has going on to get a book he has worked over 5 years on published, it's called "Beyond the NES". Beyond the NES is a curated look at games that came out on the Famicom only in Japan and have yet to be introduced to North American gamers in any meaningful way. This book is Joe's attempt to remedy that unfamiliarity and I would say does so REALLY well. I tasked Joe with finding comparable Famicom exclusive games to some of our more well known titles on the NES in North America. Love Zelda? There are some cool games we didn't get that you may like. What about Mega Man? There are a bunch of cool games that we didn't get that might scratch that itch. Beyond the NES is a great look into what we missed in North America on the NES and is well worth supporting.

    Still Loading #405: The History of Cheating in Video Games w/ Nate Drake

    There are many areas of game history that have not been given their due diligence in research. And for a long while I never had a second thought about cheat codes or cheating in video games in general other than the cursory Konami Code Easter egg or the news story about some game hacker. That was until I read my guest's recently published book. I'm joined by Nate Drake to talk about his book on the history of cheating in video games called "I Am Not Good". I had a great conversation with Nate about his work on the book, his inspiration for writing it, his personal favorite cheat codes and if big head mode should come back or not... And of course much more. Please note I did receive a review copy of this book. Check out Nate on Bluesky HERE Buy Nate's book HERE Shout-out Song: Pie in the Sky Artist: Karl Brueggemann Album: Micropower https://karlbmusic.bandcamp.com/album/micropower End Song: Telemart Artist: Karl Brueggemann Album: Micropower https://karlbmusic.bandcamp.com/album/micropower Get Still Loading Podcast merch! https://www.teepublic.com/user/still-loading-podcast Check out the Bit by Bit Foundation! https://www.bitbybitfoundation.org/ Support the Podcast! https://www.patreon.com/stillloadingpod

    Still Loading #404: 007 First Light w/ Thrak

    You all knew this coming. It HAD to happen. It's finally here. My nearly 3 hour episode on the new James Bond game, 007 First Light. I have been anticipating this game for quite some time and I'm not gonna lie ya'll it did not let me down even in the slightest. It lived up to all my hopes for it. Joining me to break down this game in all it's glory is returning friend of the show and fellow Bond fanatic Thrak from The 3DO Experience podcast and the Call of Duty Thrak Ops podcast. We talk about how this game feels like James Bond in every way possible. We talk about how the gameplay makes you feel like Bond, the sound design, the cinematic nature of the game and so much more. We do a big spoiler dive into the story of the game as well which we do shoutout clearly before we dive in. If you love James Bond like I do you will not want to miss this episode.
