CQ 271 - Is your "CIB" good enough? by Johnny & Tyler

CQ 270 - It's time to fix your collection: Spring Cleaning by Johnny & Tyler

Finally, an episode where we can talk about Beyond Shadowgate, the second best Bomberman game, and $700 Neutopia games no one really cares about.

Two old men enumerate why collecting modern games is generally less interesting and see if it's just a nostalgia thing or the olden days really were the golden days.

We're looking at the most expensive, rarest collectible Xbox 360 games and determining if any of this stuff is worth our time in a sea of junky collectors editions.

We're talking about the best versions of games and other collecting dilemmas. Do you get the rare variant or the early variant? American or Japanese? Busted original version vs. remake with all the DLC? Nicer condition or better variant?

We're talking about every single modern game that costs $200+ (that isn't some weird release or special edition) and coming to the conclusion that not only is collecting modern games affordable, but you don't even want the games that cost this much.

Johnny takes us on a journey of collecting the "most 1980s" games, meaning games that embody pop culture of the decade like Knight Rider, Tron, and Smurfs.

We're recapping the price trends, interest trends, big sales, and how we collected in 2024. Grab the aux cable because this is 3 hours of pure, unfiltered hobby entertainment you can subject your family to while you're driving up to grandma's for Christmas in Delaware

This is a complete re-upload to fix a Spotify issue. If your episode shows as 3:41:42, you already have the right file.

This podcast should be 3:41:42. If it’s 3:42:01, the last hour is out of sync and your app has an out of date file. As far as I know, only Spotify was affected.

I’m keeping this file up in case you have the correct file and you’re mid episode.
