Grab your herbs and first aid spray, it's time to get down and dirty with Resident Evil!
Super excited to have this out on Halloween week, and there's so much to talk about with this game! From the purposely-cumbersome controls to the unique sense of horror and tension, Resident Evil landed as a horror staple, even reigniting interest in the zombie genre and laying the ground work for the mid-2000's zombie renaissance that included 28 Days Later, The Walking Dead, Left 4 Dead, and so much more!
But how does the game stack up against a couple of sadboistm with little patience and a lot of horror experience? The answer has more layers than a Jill sandwich!

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a watershed moment in not only gaming, but pop culture history in general. It smashed open the door to true 3D adventure games while setting up a lot of the mechanics we see in today's video games. On top of that, you can rarely visit any entertainment convention without seeing a few Links and Princess Zeldas walkin' around.
But who were the people involved, and how did they overcome the limitations of their technology?
In our first game of the podcast, we look at these questions and more to see what Ocarina of Time really meant to people who played it back in 1997.
