Still Loading Podcast

As the game industry evolves sometimes it's easy to forget the stepping stones of progress. Sometimes a game comes out, does something revolutionary, but no one notices because something bigger comes out just a few years later and overshadows it.

On this episode I chatted with Matthew Smith, creator of the YouTube channel Computer Gaming Yesterday. We talk about his recently released documentary on the game "Dark Age of Camelot" and how it is one of the more influential MMORPG's that not a lot of people talk about anymore. This episode touches on a fascinating era of game history that you will not want to miss.

I'm not gonna beat around the bush. The episode that is covered for this month's Captain N episode is by far our favorite of season 2. Dexter Morrill is back and we have a ton of fun breaking down Captain N season 2 episode 9, Having a Ball. This episode is one of the most wild episode's we've ever seen on the show. Do you wanna see King Hippo and Eggplant Wizard as rockstars? Victorian era aristocrats? Tomatoes dancing with creepy legs? If you answered yes to any of these, this episode is for you.

The first ever patron poll episode is here! In January my patrons voted on a game I should cover on the show and the winner was Spec Ops: The Line! I'm joined by Dave Jackson of Tales From the Backlog to discuss this game that features an incredibly morally ambiguous narrative. There are a lot of spoilers in this one but it is still well worth listening to.

It has been a long time coming for this episode. I can't believe in almost 9 years I have NEVER done a Pokemon episode. Well that has finally changed. I am joined by Bill from the Gaming & Collecting Podcast and Mono from Tokyo Game Life to break down the first generation of Pokemon games. A little bit of history, a little bit of nostalgia and everything in between, we spent nearly 2 hours talking Pokemon.
