Sunday Jul 12, 2015
Sunday Jul 12, 2015
This mini-episode is going to be what I hope will be an occasional feature on the podcast: Al's Bargain Bin Adventures! I scour the depths of GameStop and anyplace where used video games can be purchased for a couple of bucks or less to bring you old, out of date games! This series will feature my reactions while playing these games. Am I destined to be disappointed, or will I manage to unearth hidden treasures?
In this first episode me and my son play Link's Crossbow Training. The video of the podcast will be uploaded to Point of Insanity Game Studio's Facebook page for your viewing enjoyment.

Tuesday Jun 16, 2015
Al and Steve continue their discussion of changing technology, talking about video games, computers, the internet, social networking sites, and cell phones. Again, we use the terms for those who don't know/for those too young to remember a few times. We're not trying to sound snobbish. Really. We apologize if we come off that way!
So by now you've heard us talk about how technology. How do you feel? If you grew up around the same time we did (80s/90s) are you happy you grew up when you did and got to see these changes? Or are you jealous of your child's smart phone/XBox/iPad/HDTV/etc? Feel free to comment on the Point of Insanity Game Studio Facebook page!

Back in the late 80s and early 90s there was one video game publisher that became synonymous with terrible games, and that was LJN. Thanks to various internet video game reviewers LJN's reputation for producing sub-par video games lives on. But were their games really that bad, or just poorly executed? Al discusses his memories of some of the many LJN games for the NES.
