"You like THAT version of Dungeons and Dragons? Dude, you're not a REAL FAN! You can't call your self a TRUE D&D fan unless you like THIS version of the game!"
Sooner or later we all run into that one person who insists he or she knows what "true" fans of any RPG/movie/TV show/comic book/music/or book series likes and what they shouldn't like. In this episode Al and guest Dan from Radio Free Borderlands tackle this potentially divisive topic. We discuss why we think some people are snobby fans and hostile to those who are new to their area of interest.

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depths of GameStop and anyplace where used video games can be purchased for a couple of bucks or less to bring you old, out of date games!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.

Al and guest Dawn take a look at a question that geeks have debated for as long as there have been comic books and movies: who would win in a fight between two fictional characters? This is something fans love to debate and has been explored in comic books, video games, internet shows on YouTube, and where ever geeks gather!

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!
