Remember The Game? Retro Gaming Podcast

Sorry for the missing RTG everyone, I'm taking a couple weeks away from the show for personal reasons. But fortunately, our Patreon archives are full of hundreds of bonus podcasts, so you'll still get your fix. This week, I'm ranking every Nintendo console of all-time. I've never hidden the fact that I'm a Nintendo fanboy, so this was like ranking my children (and the Virtual Boy). If you enjoy this, we have a TON more waiting for you on Patreon (ad-free, too!). You can also write into the show, join our Discord, help choose the games we cover, and more! Subscriptions start at just $3/month at Patreon.com/RememberTheGame Learn more about your ad choices.

Patreon.com/RememberTheGame Every year as part of our Extra-Life stream, we auction off a chance to be my guest on an episode of the show. Last year's winner picked Mass Effect 3, and even though it took us a year to get it done, it's time to talk a great game, from a great series, for a great cause. (Spoilers within!!) I'd hear an argument that Mass Effect is the greatest trilogy in video game history. Incredible setting, fun gameplay, awesome story, and the decisions you make ACTUALLY matter. And not just for the game you're playing, but for the entire trilogy. Stuff you did in Mass Effect 1 can have a direct impact on how Mass Effect 3 plays out. This one sees Shepard flying around the galaxy uniting everyone to take on the Reapers in a final standoff, and it plays as epic as it sounds. My guest this week is, as I mentioned, one of the winners of our charity auction from last year, and a long-time hot dog, Ian. We talked for almost an hour and a half about the many highs (and occasional "lows") of not only Mass Effect 3, but the Mass Effect trilogy as a whole. And before we save the galaxy, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks what it would take for Capcom to show Mega Man the love they show their bigger franchises. Should they bring back character specific weapons for Mario Kart 9? And now that I'm a COD guy, will I finally cover one on RTG?? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 of my fav modern RPGs ever: Skyrim, Fallout 3, and KOTOR. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Some say this might be the scariest game ever made, and I agree, but not for the right reasons. I love the Alien franchise, but I HATE this game. The concept is cool. You play as Ellen Ripley's daughter, and you have to escape a ship full of Aliens, killer robots, and hostile staff. It's a great idea, and the first-person concept works perfectly. But it's also a stealth game, and I fucking HATE stealth games. You spend this whole game hiding in lockers or under desks and after about 6 hours of snoozing and losing, I rage quit as hard as I've ever rage quit a game. Tyler returns to the show this week, and he may not hate this game QUITE as much as I do, but he's not a fan either. We don't think it's a "lazy" game, but we don't think it's fun. Fucking game... And before we talk about that stupid Alien, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro! This week, someone asks if I think we'll ever get another Mega Man game? Would I recommend the Steam Deck to someone that just lost their Switch? And if I could be a fly on the wall and oversee a game's development, what would I pick? Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Alien games: Alien vs Predator, Alien 3, and Alien Trilogy. Learn more about your ad choices.
