    The Return of Golden Eye (from The History of Fun)

    Simone de Rochefort wasn’t allowed to play violent games growing up, so GoldenEye 007 on the N64 – one of the very first first-person-shooter games – wasn’t exactly her parents’ cup of tea. This week we’ll return to History of Fun’s deep dive on how one of the most popular games of our childhood was developed. Listen to all the episodes of The History of Fun on Apple or Pocketcasts.

    She cute. She shoot.

    Everyone is sick as heck, so Chelsea was joined by Jenna and Polygon’s Emily Heller. Emily talked about the very good dog who is also a decorated war hero in Wargroove. Chelsea talked Luigi’s Mansion 3, and the gang discussed Halloween events good and bad (Overwatch, Two Dots) as well as more seasonally appropriate scary movies. We are conducting an audience survey to better serve you. It takes no more than five minutes, and it really helps out the show.
