Just wanted to give props to @stuartgipp.bsky.social, @dark1x.bsky.social and @tapirfortuna.bsky.social
Many of my favourite @retronauts.bsky.social epis are when the three go through games of a particular series.
Love the chemistry and informative discussion!
My backlog grows after every epi.

My 2026 is getting off to an interesting retro focused year:
Pro-tip: Start the year off by beating the worst game that you can think of. That way, you get the worst thing you’ve played in 2026 out of the way early on.
Nothing I’ll play this year will be any worse than this game (I hope).
