In this Backtrack, we reminisce about the pop culture phenomenon that was the Martial Arts Craze!

October 24, 2024GenX Halloween Experience
From homemade costumes to pillowcase candy hauls, Halloween as a GenX kid was something special. It was a simpler time with more freedom, but also prone to real-world scares that have led to a more watered-down Halloween today. In this Backtrack, we’re looking back at our memories of the GenX Halloween experience!

October 03, 2024REWIND: HBO
When cable TV first came out, most people got it for the clear reception but not necessarily for any additional content. That changed when HBO hit the market. Being able to watch full movies without commercials revolutionized TV and showed what cable could be. It was like coming out of the dark ages for us Generation X’ers!

September 28, 2024 BONUS: Bob DeCrescenzo on Working With Atari
When the Atari 7800+ was announced, we also got word that a handful of masterful titles - formerly independent homebrew games by developer Bob DeCrescenzo - were being adopted by the mothership as official Atari games, including a sequel to Crystal Castles, Bentley Bear's Crystal Quest.

Jon sits down with BobD to discuss his history with Atari, his start in homebrew development, and the experience of having his indie games christened as authorized games.
