  • Hollow Knight: Silksong (2025)

    Hunter was able to talk Ernest Jernest into coming right back to talk about one of the biggest games of the century, Hollow Knight: Silksong. Apologies that we're not exhaustedly discussing sparse details of this game in a hotel room in Indianapolis but we thought maybe we'd do it justice this time. ;)

  • Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (1995)

    Matt has returned to Hunter's couch to talk about that green egg laying dyno we all know and love! A classic OGA discussion of feeling pretty alright about a video game. Cold open discussion is all about the Analogue 3D that both the boys recently unwrapped as early Christmas gifts from Santa!

  • I Have No Mouth and, I Must Scream (1995)

    This week Hunter and newcomer Shelton Brister sit down to talk about the darkest game in OGA history. A twisted weirdo post-apocalyptic point-and-click written by Harlan Ellison. It's a lot but this game invites a lot of interesting discussion even if that discussion requires some pretty serious content warnings.

  • Panzer Dragoon (1995)

    Hunter and Matt are here this week to talk about our classic OGA subject: SEGAAAAA. This one is a real throwback that I feel like should be very fitting this week of just the boys havin' fun talking about a weird franchise we're quite fond of. Jump on and give it a listen!
