  • Episode 66: Final Fantasy 8 is so underrated.
    Jan 20 2026

    Join the guys in duel school when they go from class clowns to headmaster in just a few days in Final Fantasy 8 for the Playstation.

    This RPG is certainly a video game of all time and a Final Fantasy of all time. With a highly experimental set of mechanics, veteran players can choose their difficulty while new players are left in the dust.

    May 27 2025

    Join the guys and guest, Jake from 8bitjoystick, as they explore what made Super Mario Bros. 3 so special, how it pushed the limits of the NES hardware, and why it continues to influence game design today — over 30 years after its release.
