Ready to feast on some nostalgia? 🦃🎮 In this special edition of our podcast, hosts AMKomnenos, BananaHammockRepublic, and Legion sit down to carve into their earliest gaming memories—from pixel-perfect magic to those “did the console just eat my save file?” moments. We’re talking retro consoles, first gaming heartbreaks, childhood triumphs, and the games that made us fall in love with the hobby in the first place. As we gather around the virtual table, we can’t help but feel extra thankful for the incredible moments gaming has given us over the years. After all… what better time than Thanksgiving to appreciate the games that stuffed our childhoods full of joy? So pull up a chair, grab a plate of leftovers, and join us as we give thanks-for-gaming and share stories that'll warm your heart more than pumpkin pie fresh out of the oven.

Incomplete and Unsatisfied || Podcast Ep. 84 || Jedi Survivor, Metal Gear Solid, Battletoads

Join our AMKomnenos, BananaHammockRepublic, and Legion as we look back at games we never got around to finishing. We (eventually) discuss games that just couldn't hold our interest, games that were just too hard, and all the other reasons we had for leaving games un-finished. Sometimes it's a mechanic in the game, sometimes it's the community surrounding the game, and sometimes it's just the wrong place, wrong time, but we hold ourselves accountable for all the games we never completed and discuss what it even means to complete a game. Feel free to let us know the games you never got to finish in the comments!

This conversation will be overwhelming from our memory of playing through these games in the very distant past of our youth, so bear with us. Feel free to weigh in with your own comments on these companions!
