Retro Hangover

Another one of those match ups where the games couldn't possibly be more different. And yes, the match up you are seeing is real! Okay, that reference might have been a bit obscure, but you'll know it after you listen to this. Will one of the first online focused first person shooters score the frag or will Game Arts other plucky coming of age story over come the odds in true JRPG fashion? Eric, Coury, and Keith talk it out!
