Episode S4E14: The Elder Scrolls of Tamriel
Twenty years ago, Bethesda introduced us to the massively open-world RPG series known as The Elder Scrolls. From its beginnings as a PC staple to a global phenomenon available on consoles as well, millions of gamers have sunk millions of hours into each game, eager to do everything that can be done with each expansive world. We reminisce our experiences of this great series here. All music used in this episode belongs to Jeremy Soule, composer of the Elder Scrolls games.

Episode S4E13: Welcome To Silent Hill
Fifteen years ago, Konami gave us their answer to Capcom's Resident Evil franchise. Rather than zombies, bio-organic weapons, and viruses, Silent Hill gave us psychological chills. Supernatural elements, satanic cults, drugs, inner demons, and Pyramid Head gave us good old-fashioned nightmare fuel. We celebrate and reminisce this classic survival horror franchise on this episode. All music belongs to their respective games/studios/developers/composers/etc. Ep S4E13

Episode S4E10: To Be A Gamer
What does it mean to be a "gamer"? On this episode, we take a look at the definition, and debate as to whether we should retire the term or figure out ways to give the label a more positive, all-inclusive attachment. Apologies for the drop in audio quality in the 2nd half--Skype occasionally takes issues with large panels. All music used belongs to their respective games/developers/studios/composers/etc. Ep S4E10

Episode S4E9: From Platform to Platform
It's a love letter to platform games, a genre of games that has fallen out of favor in recent console generations as gamers prefer much more nuanced, story-driven, feature-loaded experiences. Yet it's this down-but-not-out style of game, where you grind level by level, which is largely to thank for what we play today. Ronny and Brian talk about platforming games and why they're still relevant today. All music used belongs to their respective games/studios/developers/composers/etc. Ep S4E9
