"FINAL FANTASY TACTICS – The Ivalice Chronicles is a very solid SRPG with quality of life and presentational improvements over the PS1 and PSP versions of the game. These changes help modernize it for new audiences, but it isn’t without its quirks." Read: thegamingbrief.ca/2025/09/24/f...

ICYMI - we hit 200 episodes this week! 🎉 🎉

When Mike, Moe & I gathered around my parents’ kitchen table over eight years & 200 episodes ago to record a podcast about Shadow of the Colossus, I could have *never* imagined where that work would lead. New friends, many cool games & experiences that I’ll carry with me forever. Thank you.

Hurray on 200! 🎉 Doing this thing has been so much fun, has been a great place to put all of my analytical energy, broadened my gaming horizons and introduced me to a lot of awesome people! Recording this episode was a lot of fun for us so give it a listen!

Our 200th episode is out now! The WHOLE crew is back for a trip down memory lane. On the show, we build the list of essential titles from the past 200 episodes. Listen: plnk.to/leftbehind
