  • A 2020s take on NES

    First, the basics: The sound quality is good and the podcast comes out on a consistent schedule. The hosts keep to a format and don’t stray too far off topic.

  • Great podcast

    The more I listen to this podcast, the more I like it. The guys all have a good dry sense of humor. Initially I listened to episodes of games I played but instead I'd recommend listening to the podcast chronologically. Interesting how their opinions change on games over time.

I'm a pretty standard pepperoni boy.
402 - Yo! Noid

Q: What is your final verdict on Starship Hector?
It's a no for me; the lack of power-ups makes it less interesting compared to other shooters.
