This week Coose and Mowen discuss the culture and history of gaming. We've come a long way from when Sonic The Hedgehog reigned supreme on the Sega Megadrive, and the ultimate driving experience could be found in Mario Kart on the Nintendo 64. Aside from an incredible dose of nostalgia, the boys get into the nitty-gritty about today's gaming culture, and if it's actually a positive thing in 2021. Gone seem to be the teenage days of meeting up with your friends down the local park on a Friday night and having a social swift one. Instead, we now have a virtual landscape where we can do all of this and more through party chat without needing to leave the comfort of our home, no matter your age. Has a progressive achievement system of leveling up a beloved character in an RPG, or the enjoyment of destroying your enemy in a competitive PVP showdown replaced the old social ways of the outdoors? Find out what we think on this week's episode of the Gigglebytes!
