Episode 54 - Harvest Moon: Back to Nature 1:14:39

6M ago1:14:39

1:14:39

"But morning is when you're SUPPOSED to farm!" This is just ONE of the many nuggets of wisdom one can learn from this episode, along with the pros and cons of virtual gamified polygamy, giving weeds to people who are willing to buy them, and much, much more! That's the kind of high-octane, action-packed, information-fueled podcast we deliver over h…

Episode 53 - The Oregon Trail 59:46

8M ago59:46

59:46

Let's all hop along, hop along onto the wagon... why? Because we've got a trail to ride my friends, a trail to O-re-gon! And what'll we do on our way way over there? Why, we'll... Get dysentery! Get robbed! Break limbs! Get stranded! Go hungry! Die of thirst! Get bitten by snakes! ...and fail to ford a few rivers! Because that's the way it goes, do…

Episode 52 - Super Mario World 1:16:02

9M ago1:16:02

1:16:02

It's a-me... YOSHI! After 51 warm-up episodes, the hosts of the show have finally gotten enough podcasting under their belt, and are ready to tackle the most important game in history, SUPER MARIO WORLD! Why is it the most important game ever? Well obviously, because it was the debut of ME, Yoshi! Not some stupid horse, not a sidekick, but the hero…

Random Non-Rose 6: Super Mario RPG (Remake) 46:47

10M ago46:47

46:47

It's-a-me, AGAIN! Geno and Mallow (and, I guess, Mario, Peach, and Bowser) are back (tell a friend!)... in SUPER MARIO RPG! Not to be confused with Episode 5 of our dear podcast, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. The heroic journey is undertaken once more, and our favorite heroes and all their early-Nintendo snark are ready to save the ca…

Episode 51 - Disney's Aladdin 1:01:46

10M ago1:01:46

1:01:46

Everyone remembers the lyrics to that famous song... "I come from a land down under, where rubies do gleam and lamps thunder..." -- that's the one, right? Well it should be, because the Cave of Wonder definitely qualifies. We're going far, far into the future (look it up!) and to the land of Agrabah, to join everyone's favorite street rat and every…

Episode 50 - Pokemon Red & Blue 1:23:39

11M ago1:23:39

1:23:39

Fiiighting Trainers by moonlight... Maaaaking friends by daylight... Never running from a real fight... they are the ones called Pokémon! What do you get when you cross a senile old man who can't remember his own grandson's name, a pair of eleven-year-olds who are cast out into the world to fend for themselves in a never-ending Battle Royale of lit…

Random Non-Rose 5: Assassin's Creed 2 1:31:33

11M ago1:31:33

1:31:33

Who's that jumping off the building up there? Who's that calmly walking amongst a group of courtesans as though he's not quite obviously not one of them? Who's that jumping into a pile of hay and saying "shhh, you can't see me in here!"? It's Easy-O! Etch-Ee-Oh! Eez-yo! No, it's EZIO! The hosts are back... err wait, what's that? It's an all-East-Co…

Episode 49 - Kirby's Dream Course 42:36

1+ y ago42:36

42:36

Oh Kirby, you're so dreamyyyy... or at least, your golf course is! And what better way for a character who's known for being mostly marshmallow-cloud and gains power through eating enemies to celebrate the great athletic event that is golf, than... to turn into a golf ball with a variety of strange powers trying to get you to whack him into enemies…

Random Non-Rose 4: Vegas Dream 27:27

1+ y ago27:27

27:27

HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY, GWGW! It's our third birthday (how did that happen?!?), so we decided to put out a special Non-Rose episode that throws wayyyy back in our hosts' gaming lives! Where else can you go to turn $700 into $10,000,000 than VEGAS, BABY? Or, more often... where else can you go to turn $700 into a sad $0 and end up on a bus out of town t…

Episode 48 - Super Bonk 1:03:30

1+ y ago1:03:30

1:03:30

Ever wonder what would happen if a group of video game developers were told to just go wild and make the weirdest, most confusing, least story-driven, crazy game possible, preferably including a man-child that grows and shrinks, Alice in Wonderland-style, and occasionally shouts out a ride-able set of stone letters spelling "RAGE!"? Neither did we!…

Episode 47 - Rhythm Games 1:06:52

1+ y ago1:06:52

1:06:52

Kick, punch, it's all in the mind! Well, I mean... that's ONE example of this genre, but this time instead of Um Jammer Lammy, we're focused in on the behemoths of the rhythm game genre from about 2005 to 2015... Guitar Hero, Rock Band, DJ Hero, and all those rock 'n' roll, guitar 'n' drum, rhythm-music games! These games were the life of the party…

Episode 46 - F-Zero 1:02:22

1+ y ago1:02:22

1:02:22

Three, two, one... it's space-lights out and space-away we go! It's time to rev up those hovercar engines, blast around the semi-epilepsy-triggering track, bounce against strangely rubbery walls, and entertain futuristic billionaires by racing other poor unfortunate souls... and occasionally blow up! That's right, it's F-Zero for the Super Nintendo…

Random Non-Rose 3: Half-Life 2 52:25

1+ y ago52:25

52:25

Rise and shine, dear listeners - rise and... shine. It’s another Random Non-Rose Episode! This time we are delving into Half-Life 2 for the PC! Looking back at a game many have said is one of the greatest games of all time is a challenge, but our intrepid hosts have their crowbars ready. Host Chris leads the squad in a live recording to talk about …

Episode 45 - Super Punch-Out!! 1:00:58

2y ago1:00:58

1:00:58

Float like a butterfly, sting like ... an unresponsive SNES Classic controller that disagrees with your assessment that you threw an uppercut instead of a body punch! That's how the phrase goes, right? We're in the ring for this one, the squared circle, not hitting below the belt, getting saved by the bell, rolling with the punches, givin' em the o…

A Very Special GWGW - Co-Op Games 1:07:15

2y ago1:07:15

1:07:15

The more you know... about how we play co-op games, the more surprised you are we haven't hurt each other in real life! This very special episode of Games We Grew Up With is all about those magical moments on the couch, across the country, or both, when you get a group, perfectly in sync, working together on a puzzle, thinking as one... and then on…

Episode 44 - A Link to the Past 1:16:54

2y ago1:16:54

1:16:54

Thank you Link! But our Princess is in another castle! ...wait, that doesn't sound right... wrong Princess and wrong mostly-silent Protagonist trying to save both the world and her! This is another LEGEND OF ZELDA, and this time we're finding A LINK TO THE PAST (for the Super Nintendo)! All the classics of Zelda games show up here... Link, Zelda, G…

GWGW's 2022 Year in Review! 42:57

2y ago42:57

42:57

2022... What a year it was for Games We Grew Up With! We laughed, we cried, we screamed at entirely-inappropriate ratings predictions for SimCity 2000 (or at least, some of us did...) From Mario 64 to Final Fantasy VII, General Chaos to Starcraft, Crash Team Racing to Super Metroid, we covered 12 new (old) games, across GameBoy, Sega Genesis, Windo…

1
Episode 43 - General Chaos 50:24

2y ago50:24

50:24

Well well well, if it isn't the most aptly-named game of the show's history! Both for game content as well as what it took to even get the two hosts to be able to play (and stream) it to all our viewers on Twitch! This one digs deep into the archive, and pulls out a simple, complex, flame-torching, nut-punching, chaotic combat scramble that we're t…

Episode 42 - StarCraft 1:34:21

2y ago1:34:21

1:34:21

"GWGW, reportin' for duty!" It's time, it's time, it's finally time... IT'S RTS TIME! In this episode, the crew dove deep into the world of Terran, Protoss, and Zerg, in STARCRAFT! We collected minerals, we learned hard lessons about what dropships are, and we figured out that... well, the Zerg are just kinda weird and gross! Even better, we were a…

Episode 41 - Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers 55:31

2y ago55:31

55:31

Alpha, get me some teenagers with attitude! Well, we may not be teenagers anymore, but I think anyone who has listened to even part of an episode of this podcast knows there's plenty of attitude to go around. And hey, if you check the show's title out, we DID grow up, way back when! And the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers were a formative part of tha…

1
Episode 40.7 - Final Fantasy VII Remake 1:04:41

2+ y ago1:04:41

1:04:41

Forty and three-quarters... a perfectly reasonable episode number, right? Really, if we're talking about "Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade INTERmission", I think 40.7 is quite appropriate! And who's that voice? That's not Host Chris! Well-spotted (heard), dear listener! That's Producer Kyle, dropping in to share some of his thoughts along with H…

Episode 40 - Final Fantasy VII 1:36:33

Episode 40.5 - Final Fantasy VII - Rose-Tinted Thoughts 43:15

2+ y ago43:15

43:15

HOOOOOJJJJOOOOOO!!!! We're back... but NOT back from the past... not quite yet! It turns out that, since Final Fantasy VII was the main game that this podcast was started for, our intrepid hosts have more than a few things to say about it! A few weeks ago, we all sat down to record the "Rose-Tinted Glasses" segment of this episode, and when we went…

Episode 39 - TIE Fighter 57:22

2+ y ago57:22

57:22

Power! Unlimited power! Or at least, that's what the Empire would have you believe. Join them in TIE Fighter, and work to exterminate all that Rebellion scum. Even more importantly, this episode we talked about this game LIVE, and streamed it to YouTube (where the extended cut is still available)! But just for you, our dear listener, we've made a h…

Episode 38 - Crash Team Racing 1:13:28

3, 2, 1... race! Get your boost on, drift around the corners, and take out Mario, Bowser, and Peach! Oh wait... no... hold on, that's... Coco, Pura, and Dingodile! Why, that must mean that we're in the world of CRASH TEAM RACING! Why yes, you brilliant clue-deducer you, we ARE! We've gone back to the Playstation 64... err, I mean, Playstation 1, an…

Episode 37 - Super Metroid 59:55

Exploring the wonders of the MetroidVania genre with one of its earliest and best variants, Hosts Chris and Katie wind their way back and forth (and back and forth, and back and forth...) through …

Random Non-Rose 2: Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine 28:03

28:03

WhatwhatWHAAAT? No rose segment? Wasn’t that just a weird one-off thing that Host Katie did for Jak 3? Why no, dear listener, it was NOT! Our "Random Non-Rose" series continues, this time with BOTH of the hosts, playing through Dr. Mario… err, I mean, Dr. Robotnik’s Mean Bean Machine, for the Sega Genesis! Not familiar? Well, think of Tetris… make …

Episode 36 - Super Mario 64 1:15:49

1:15:49

Its-a-us, GWGW! For our 36th episode, there was no better choice than a game with a completely DIFFERENT number in it, Super Mario two-to-the-sixth power! I mean, Super Mario 64! Back to the favorite console of everyone with three hands, the N64, and all its three-dimensional glory! Hosts Chris and Katie run, jump, triple jump, wall jump, side jump…

KEFKA PLEEAASSSEEEE!!! We're back... not just back with a new episode, but back to our FINAL FANTASY series! This time, it's the Internet's number-one favorite of the entire series, Final Fantasy VI! (Or III, if you grew up in North America in the mid-90s...) The last iteration of the wrongly-numbered Finals Fantasy, the hosts finally got to have a…

Episode 34 - SimCity 2000 59:40

3y ago59:40

59:40

"Aliens! Earthquakes! Riots! FIIIRRREEEE!!" At least, if you ask Host Katie, that's the plot summary of SimCity 2000... Producer Kyle might instead go with "Electrical grid, taxes, bond measures, and population growth!". Any way you cut it, SimCity 2000 changed the world of simulation gaming. An unbelievable level of depth, especially for its time,…

Episode 33 - Mega Man 59:47

CUT! CUT! Little android man, born without a soul... Cut Man, along with Guts Man, Fire Man, Bomb Man, Elec Man, Ice Man... even the evil Dr. Wily himself... a long list of enemies for our hero, Mega Man, to defeat, on his way to saving the world. It's back to 1987 this time, for the start of a long-running series with blasters, androids, interchan…

Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's... it's... a giant multi-colored, winged whale with a kaleidoscopic paisley pattern all over it, that's for some reason named the Wind Fish! Come on, how could you not see that? For this one, we're headed back all the way to the GameBoy, and checking in on everyone's favorite green-robed (in …

Episode 31 – Commander Keen In Goodbye, Galaxy! 59:54

“Bonk. Bonk. Bonk.” What’s that, you ask? Is it fate, come knocking? Is it a raven, rapping, rapping at your chamber door? Why no, in fact, it’s COMMANDER KEEN! More specifically, Commander Keen constantly slamming his (helmeted) head into the top of whatever was above him, as Hosts Chris and Katie pogo sticked their way through the levels of this …

Episode 30 – Final Fantasy V 58:53

3y ago58:53

58:53

SALSAAAA!!! It’s in everyone’s top-5 favorite dips for tortilla chips, and it’s the very poorly-translated name of one of the lead characters in this episode’s game, FINAL FANTASY V! We continue our grand tour of the Finals Fantasy, and this is the very last one that will come WITHOUT a rose segment… VI and onward, and Hosts Chris and Katie have ac…

This time it’s fire-blasting, boost-jumping, dragon-saving, key-fetching, and platform-gliding with everyone’s favorite winged protagonist, Spyro the Dragon! Back to platforming, back to the PS1, and with t…

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s… a giant baby? Come to crush us? As we try to save our neighbors from giant worms, roaming zombies, and 6-foot-tall ants climbing over the hedge maze that we really shouldn’t have put into the backyard in the first place? I know, I know, everyone loves a first-person maze (particularly Host Chris), but maybe we shoul…

MEIN LEBEN! It’s the start of year 2 (Season 2? Are we doing that?) of the show, and what better way to kick off such a grand occasion than killing a bunch of Nazi scum, and destroying Mecha-Hitler with WOLFENSTEIN 3D, right? It’s time to go back to DOS, it’s time for some Shareware, and it’s time for Host Chris to share some of the great stories h…

Episode 25 – Final Fantasy IV 59:59

59:59

It’s time! Final (final, final, final) Fantasy again! Maybe they should have named the series The Neverending Story. That’s not taken, right? Final Fantasy IV! Where, unlike the previous games, you have to… fetch the four elemental crystals? Deal with a sad backstory involving orphans? Fly in an airship that Cid gives you? Hmm, there has to be some…

Because it’s Street Fighter II time, and we’re flying all around the world to fun fight locales, dragon punches, yoga fires, and tiger knees! Across the arcade, Sega Genesis, and Super Nintendo, this game showed up across a LOT of systems, and defin…
