Matt & Geoff are joined by Aidan and Ty from FunFactor Podcast to look back on the world of old gaming magazine reviews. What purpose did they serve for the readers, and for the publishers? Did we treat these writers and editors like deities? Or just fellow gamers. Where do they fit in modern gaming criticism? Are they worth revisitng today? FunFactor Podcast is a deep dive into gaming magazines of the past. Each episode is a different issue tackling not just the cover story, but all the little details that made up the gaming rags of yesteryear. You can find FunFactor here! We have a Patreon!

Matt & Geoff discuss frustration and fun in Platforming games.  Whether 2D or 3D, slow methodical or fast and flowing; movement is everything in a platformer video game. What aspects of control make or break the experience? What impediments can turn a challenge of any level into a rage-inducing slog? Where can an impossible challenge be fun, smooth, and desirable?  We have a Patreon!
