We're fulfilling our density this week as the three of us revisit Back to the Future! The trilogy of films are among the most iconic franchises in history with the original widely regarded as one of the best movies ever made. We'll talk about how the original movie was made and its two sequels before we dive into some of the games that tried to adapt the films. Some of these games make us wish we could make like a tree and get out of here, but it's not all bad! Telltale's Back to the Future: The Game is a shining example of continuing the series by replicating the charm and lightheartedness that made us love the movies.    Email us:  [email protected] Instagram: @LegionGamingPodcast

It's Halloween and our annual tradition continues as we revisit Resident Evil 3: Nemesis! Resident Evil has always been one of our favorite series to cover and this week we're diving into the spin-off turned mainline game and its 2020 remake to talk about its development history, where it fits in the continuity of the franchise, and of course, the T-1000 inspired S.T.A.R.S. hunting bio-weapon Nemesis. Vito joins us and shares his fresher perspective on the games since he's fairly new to the series and Deucy and I recount the excitement of the original game dropping in November 1999.  Of course, it's worth revisiting some of our previous episodes covering Resident Evil:  Episode 7: Our Top 10 Resident Evil Games Episode 21: The Next Generation of Survival Horror: Resident Evil - Code: Veronica Episode 46: Resident Evil - Survival Horror Defined Episode 72: Resident Evil 2 (The Halloween Bonus Spectacular) Episode 81: Resident Evil 4     Email Us at [email protected] Instagram: @LegionGamingPodcast

This week, we've invited Vito to talk through one of the more divisive recent releases in Marvel's Wolverine. The three of us review our experience with Insomniac's latest featuring everyone's favorite X-Men and how it holds up compared to their previous work. Just a heads up that we do talk through some of the big story bits so here is your SPOILER ALERT for this episode.    We also catch up on a lot of the new releases we've been playing including Silver Pines, Silent Hill Townfall, Star Was Galactic Racer, Gears E-Day and a lot more before we do a deep dive into Wolverine's latest and (maybe) greatest.    Our review of Wolverine begins at 40:23   Email us:  [email protected] Instagram: LegionGamingPodcast  

There was a time in the early 2000's where we were absolutely spoiled with annual Castlevania games. The GBA saw THREE iconic Castlevania games in as many years. This week we're chronicling the incredible trilogy of Gameboy Advance games beginning with 2001's Castlevania: Circle of the Moon, Harmony of Dissonance, and the pinnacle of the trilogy with Aria of Sorrow. Each game iterated on the metroidvania blueprint laid by PS1's Symphony of the Night and added a unique gameplay mechanic while also reinventing what was possible on a handheld system. Deucy and I revisit all three games from the Castlevania Advance Trilogy and also take you through what GamePro, EGM, and Nintendo Power thought of each game at release. There's plenty of retro gaming history to uncover here.  How do they hold up and which is our favorite? Listen and then tell us your gaming memories of three of the best games in the Gameboy Advance's library   Email us:  [email protected] Instagram: LegionGamingPodcast

We're back! After a long and much needed break, we've returned with a brand new episode catching up on what we've been doing over the past few months. A lot has happened in the gaming space since we've been gone. Part of this episode covers Xbox's "reset" that includes laying off 3,200 developers, Sony's decision to kill physical games, and perhaps the worst of all - how AI has continued to wreak havoc on everyone's wallets by causing consoles, electronics, hardware to drastically increase in price thanks to a component shortage crisis that isn't ending anytime soon.  Despite those negatives, the majority of this episode is Deucy and I catching up on all of the great games we've played this year and everything that has still yet to release (and there's A LOT this year).    Look forward to our next episode in two weeks when we cover the legendary Castlevania trilogy on the Gameboy Advance!   Email us: [email protected] Instagram: LegionGamingPodcast
