We’ve all been there, stuck in a video game. Maybe for a short while, maybe for weeks, maybe even for years! Who do you call? This week on the show we’re trading stories of GameFAQs and support groups we consulted that enhanced our experience! There’s also a lengthy tangent on video rental stores, for some reason.

We're setting the way-back machine for 2016 for when we first talked about rhythm games! Rob and Pernell's friendship was forged the fires of rhythm gaming, so it's natural they would have a lot to say about it! We tried to cover rhythm games from all over the spectrum, and not just things like DDR and Guitar Hero.

Podcast Rewind is our chance to highlight favorite episodes that can't be found on our feed anymore. It's also a way to allow us to catch up on life :) We're planning on getting back to weekly new episodes, but until then, enjoy the rewind!

Which is really just an excuse to try and make Pernell laugh.
