Gaming Memories

Video Games

This week on the show, we’re joined by the Game Boys, who have their video game comedy show Free to Play back for a limited run at the Fringe Festival. Their show is all about nostalgia, so we thought this would be the perfect opportunity to talk about some of our favourite gaming memories, and discuss the importance of those memories. Do they hold up to today’s standards? Are memories better left in the past? Join Luke, Ronnie and Tom who are there for the ride.

On top of that, Archer brings us his review of ReCore, Luke gets his warbling in check with Just Sing and Ronnie has managed to escape the tight grip of his gaming PC to bring us his review of World of Warcraft’s latest expansion, Legion! Don’t miss any of the action!
