GHX Ep. 24: Conan Ain’t Bad

leave a comment »

This week Fred and Trees get together early because Jam had some scheduling conflicts.  It’s a surprisingly robust show including the loss of games over time (like, losing games as the years go by), the glory of the PS2, Battlefront 2’s update for those that played it, a bit more Burnout Paradise Remastered and The Witcher, followed by Fred really digging the 2007 Conan game.

GHX Ep. 23: Sick Trees

leave a comment »

This week we officially resurrect Gaming History X and kick it off talking about…almost nothing related to video games.  Trees is sick, Fred saw Tomb Raider, and no one drank on St. Paddy’s Day.  The conversation quickly turns to games as the two discuss “indie AAA” games, why Burnout Paradise Remastered totally holds up, the expulsion of loot crates from Battlefront II, and the abysmal game that is Haze.

Opening song includes a track used, with permission, from Ozzed.
Closing song is a sample from Shamroctoroc by Doctor Octoroc.

GHX Ep. 22: Beware, I Live!

with 2 comments

We’re back (and bringing a Sinistar reference with us).  For this first returning episode, Fred and Trees kick off the new GH101/GHX hybrid with just the base name Gaming History 101.  Explanations are given to schedule (it’s weekly), format changes, and start testing it out.  Please let us know what you like and don’t like.  Also, fair warning, the episode is nearly 2 and a half hours long. It’s been a while.

Topics discussed:

  • 2018 game releases
  • Community Questions (Remasters, Switch controllers, Socio-political coverage of games, Explicit Content on podcast)
  • Mad Max (2015)
  • The Witcher (yes, the original one)
  • Trees picks a b-tier game for Fred to play
