In which our heroes, most of them anyway, look back at one of the true classics. A mascot no less. Sonic the Hedgehog.

In which our heroes do what they said couldn't be done! They said a whole podcast couldn't be made on the subject of Tetris. They were very nearly right! Technical difficulties, doubting hosts and scheduling problems, even Simon's inability to pronounce Russian names all reared their heads to defeat our fearless hosts, each was defeated! 

 

We bring you… Tetris. 

 

In which our heroes, despite a growing realisation that none of them have played beyond the first couple of levels in years, delve into the deep water that is Deus Ex.

In which our heroes, after a tragic technology failure, look back over the astounding titles that were released on LucasArts' SCUMM engine.

 

(P.S. apologies for the sound quality, we're settling back in after the tech failures, but we're not back up to standard yet)

In which our heroes, anticipating the arrival of Mass Effect 2, take a beer-fueled look back at Mass Effect.

In which our heroes get all intellectual with Jean Paul Satre, Greek etymology, the philosophical notion of freedom, Michelangelo (with a gun) and grasshopper sandwiches whilst discussing their pet hates and 'rage moments' in gaming.

W1S1 takes a look ahead into the year 2010. The future is here, apparently. What will the future bring for video gamers? Mostly sequels.

The 2009 Holiday Special in which the party is expanded as Troy joins the group and the trio look back over the year in video games.

Episode Eight, in which our heroes talk about Half Life and the legacy it has created for Valve, including a little bit of DRM talk.

Episode Seven, in which our heroes venture into the post-apocalyptic wasteland that is Fallout.

If we sound a little more nasal and breathy than usual, the reason is our dedication to research lead us both to be struck down by radiation sickness before recording. Yup, the W1S1 crew is ill. Man flu.

Still that doesn't prevent us from a meandering and loving look back at the wonderings of a vault dweller.
