  • Politics don’t mix with gaming

    Discovered this show pretty recently and have really enjoyed it and listened consistently until Im realizing political stances are being taken. Completely turned me off. Not sure why taking a side is even necessary in this forum. Guess it’s time to try and find a new show

Why Zelda: Ocarina of Time is So Beloved w/ Greg Miller

Q: What are your thoughts on the potential price or upgrade paths for remakes and Switch 2?
