Welcome to our Tenth Episode! Lucky number 10 was not the luckiest podcast. Al's mic explodes about a half hour through, quite a thing to hear!

1. Super Bowl anticipation in the first half (then the results in the second half! See? Time Travel.)

1a. Philly's Crisco Challenge!

2. Assassin's Creed Origins, Al beat it, considers it the best in the series (despite his utter love for Pirates and Black Flag)

3. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is coming 2/13! Seven days away and Al can barely sit still. 

4. What we've been playing

5. Travis's adventures in WoW.

We review our SavePoint Short Play (Cyborg Justice on Genesis) and our Long Play (Robotrek on Super NES).

In our eigth episode, we have some fun with our Retro Question of the Bi-Week thanks to our great SavePoint members responses. We talk about the game releases that surprised us in a great way, and the ones that let us down in a bad way. We bust on Kyle for more Dad jokes, and talk about the many shortcomings of our recent SavePoint Short Play: Golgo 13 - Top Secret Episode, and Kyle's complete inability to pick a good shortplay!
