Retro Hangover

Whether you're defending the free world with the GDI or furthering the ideals of the Brotherhood of Nod, we've got you covered with our discussion of Westwood's genre-defining classic: Command & Conquer!

Paul from the Region Free Gamers podcast joins us to discuss a system that, at least here in North America, lived in the shadow of behemoths like Nintendo and Sega: The NEC TurboGrafx-16 (or PC Engine in Japan and France). Join us as we shed some light on a console that should not be overlooked!

Tighten your doo-rags and rev up those chainsaw guns, 'cause we're talking about the cover shooter that defined a console generation: Gears of War!

This is a big one. Not only do we finally take a crack at one of gaming's most beloved JRPGs, we are also joined by not one but TWO guest hosts, a first in the show's history. Slot your materia and jump into the fray with us as we discuss Final Fantasy VII!

Honorary co-host LPTyger joins the show once again to talk Nintendo! Specifically, the game partly responsible for not only the company's resurgence, but countless shattered television screens: Wii Sports!

Do you know what you get during a pod race? A lot of sand. Which is irritating... And gets everywhere. Strap in as we discuss the most thrilling competition in the Outer Rim!

GOTTA GO FAST... Until you don't. Grab a chili dog or three and join us to determine if the Sega Genesis system-seller Sonic is an untouchable classic, an overrated relic of its time, or somewhere in between.

Demons! Angels! Fire! SKULLS! It's one big very-much-Blizzard-art-style-inspired RPG adventure romp through a ravaged Earth! It's Darksiders! Join us as we ride into the End Times with one of the legendary Four Horsemen: War!

Hot Mode 7 kart racing action! Special guest LPTyger, well-known figure in the Jacksonville gaming scene, comes on the show to discuss the SNES title that started it all: Super Mario Kart!

The first episode of the new year covers one of the greatest single-player RPGs of all time: Mass Effect! Bonus fun fact: this month also marks the 10th anniversary of it's (arguably even better) sequel. It's like we planned it or something (note: we did not).

Shane and Chris played through two of the several versions of the video game adaptation of the hit 1990 holiday film Home Alone so they could discuss them just for you. Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals.

We kick off our Christmas season with a game closely associated with holiday nostalgia for many of us: Super Mario 64 for the Nintendo 64!

Coming out the other side of our 50th episode milestone, we begin the journey to 100 with a Sega Saturn rail-shooter classic: Panzer Dragoon!

Loyal Patrons Lyle and Ashton join us for a very special 50th episode of RHP! Listen in as we celebrate this milestone with two of our biggest supporters by chatting about everything from favorite childhood game consoles to which Dorito flavor reigns supreme.

Catch 'em, catch 'em, gotta catch 'em all! With the release of Pokémon Sword and Shield, what better time to go back and take a look at the games that started it all: Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow for the Nintendo Game Boy!

Frantic vivisection is the name of the game... Well, actually it's Dead Space, but there sure is a lot of Necromorph dismemberment to be had! Spooptober continues with RHP's discussion of this sci-fi horror classic.

Winning a creepy old mansion in a contest you didn't enter? Nothing seem wrong with that at all! Join the RHP crew as they discuss the Gamecube classic: Luigi's Mansion!

An island, a giant egg, a... Wind fish? That's right, it's Majora's Mask before Majora's Mask was a thing, it's Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening for the Nintendo Game Boy!

The time for SEGA is now (again)! Not only is the Genesis celebrating it's 30th birthday here in North America, the Genesis Mini is releasing in a matter of days with a roster of 42 titles! Join us as we discuss the blast-processing behemoth: The SEGA Genesis / Mega Drive!

How do you kill that which has no life!? Release a bad expansion, probably... But before all that, there was the one and only original release of World of Warcraft! Dustin Gartenbush, owner of Video Game Rescue here in Jacksonville, FL comes on the show to wax nostalgic with the RHP crew (mostly Shane) about the heyday of WoW!
