Oh it's completely new to me too. Very pleasantly surprised.
😂 Fantastic
But don't give @scowlerwilson.bsky.social any ideas
I don't know who needs to hear this in 2026, but Metal Gear Solid is really good.
That's one word for it.

Big props to Big Hops.

You are truly the most learned of all fellows ❤️
Clearing the decks before RE9 with a quickfire roundup of stuff we've been playing lately.
We've got a rather silly one for you this week - not the games, just us!

Ah I'd love that 😍
Happy birthday geeza! The sleep will come eventually, power through 💪
It's been a real eye-opener putting these 'games that define us' episodes together.
We've learned a little bit about each other, a little bit about ourselves, and hey, a little bit about life.
In many ways, it's been like playing through an Atlus JRPG.
Most definitely checking this out.
I think there might still be one or two free memberships available below if anyone is interested!

Honourable mention for Journey
I was in a good mood when I wrote it 😅
Urgh, this has made me realise I made a mistake on mine...

Damn near impossible I think. Switch was my only console for a good few years, got me back into gaming and opened my eyes to genres I'd never played.
These days the Switch 2 is fighting for attention with the PS5, Steam Deck and Xbox (and a bigger family, busier job, podcast etc etc).
Good question! Wind Waker, RE4 and the Monkey Ball games off the top of my head. Also, I'm a bit of a Mario Sunshine apologist 😅
I think if I'd played Advance Wars back then it'd be even higher. I mostly played the SNES ports as it blew my mind having 'big' games on the go.
Still does to this day!

Great minds, Scott. Great minds.
At least biovac sounds like a real word.
Haha

Thanks John ❤️ A particularly unhinged one this week.
Always the way with JRPGs. They just need to end 10-20 hours earlier.
I need to finish that. Got quite close to the end when it came out I think but then hit a wall.
😂 10/10 masterpiece!
I think this might be my favourite episode so far.
A good jumping-in point if you're looking for a new podcast to add to your rotation.
