Remember The Game? Retro Gaming Podcast

Apologies for the lack of RTG, hot dogs. I'm taking a little time off for the holidays. Fortunately, we have a Patreon archive of about 1000 episodes to draw from, so you still get your profanity-laced fix. Sonic Frontiers is the open-world Sonic game that released a couple years ago, and it just got added to PS Plus. So it seems like the right time to open this review up to the world and let you know why I didn't love this game, but you still might. Enjoy the episode, thanks for the support, and see you in 2025!

Happy holidays, everyone! We're going to part-time hours for the rest of December so I can catch up on some personal stuff and get some games played for the show in 2025. Fortunately, I have a backlog of hundreds and hundreds of podcasts to draw from so you can still get your fix. This is an episode of The Rambling Idiot, one of our Patreon exclusive podcasts where I talk about, well, anything. On this episode I talk about my love of board games, and count down my 10 all-time favs. Enjoy the episode, thanks for the support, and here's to 2025! Learn more about your ad choices.

But damned if Castlevania III hasn't pulled it off. This game is spectacular. It takes everything the original Castlevania did and pumps it full of steroids. More levels, optional routes, additional playable characters, multiple endings. I say it on this week's show and I stand by it - there are two groups of people: People that think Castlevania III is one of the best games in the NES library, and people that have never played Castlevania III. My resident Castlevania guest, Bradley McCue, gives me a call this week. We praise this game, talk about what a beast Alucard is, Bradley teaches me a little about Castlevania history, and we both admit that while we want to, neither of us can beat this damned game... And before we go vampire hunting, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks me which franchise I regret missing out on as a kid. Do I have any gaming takes that I've 180'd on over the years? And what games did I pick up on Black Friday? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 of my favourite tough NES games: Super C, Mega Man 3, and Ninja Gaiden. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame We're back with a bang this week. I've been calling for more F-Zero for years and figured it was time to start showing the series more love on RTG. So it's all about the superb F-Zero X for the N64 this week. Possibly the fastest game of the 90s? I didn't play this one much growing up, but I was blown away (George! Blow blow blow blow blow blowwwwwwn away) by how fast and smooth this one runs for a freaking Nintendo 64 game. More racers, more tracks, better soundtrack, higher speeds; it's the SNES game on steroids. And it's one of the best games on the 64. My guest this week is PENDING RTG Hall of Famer, Mark McCue, and we showed F-Zero some love this week. We both suck at this game but it didn't stop us from talking about how awesome it is, and we got into the potential future of the franchise, too. And before we try and push other drivers to their doom, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks what it means to "100%" a game these days. Does anyone else hate it when people say "get good"??? And why do I like playing the "evil" playthroughs of games? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 N64 heavies: Wave Race 64, Star Fox 64, and Pilotwings 64. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
