Episode 69: Phantasy Star III

In our nicest episode yet, it's time to discuss Phantasy Star III, a problematic game that is super ambitious but doesn't really hold up to it's lofty ambitions.

Episode XXIX: The Sega Genesis & Christmas 1992

It turns out I don't have quite as profound a set of memories of getting a Sega Genesis as I did a Super Nintendo, but it was still a pretty neat day due to some inquisitive purchasing choices by my mother. This episode discusses Christmas Day 1992 and what I loved, and hated, about the Genesis. 

There is also some discussion of our plans for 2018. 

Games Discussed: 

  • Strider

  • Sonic The Hedgehog

  • Madden 1993

  • Phantasy Star III

  • NHL 94
