Welcome to Let's Play Arcade!

Let's Play Arcade is hosted by John and Derek, two best friends and former roommates now separated by the Strait of Georgia.

In each episode of Let's Play Arcade, your hosts will:

1. Dissect and discuss a single game available on the new Apple Arcade service... which was chosen for them completely at random.

2. Crack open, drink, and share their thoughts on whatever beer they grabbed off the shelf this week (and neither of them know anything about beer).

3. Catch up and make fun of each other.

Whether it’s a magical or a horrible experience, they’ll force themselves through each week's game, share their thoughts, and let you know whether or not the title is worth your time! At the end of each episode, they’ll also randomly select the game for the following show, so you always know what's coming up on the next adventure.

This Week: Derek and John introduce themselves, and give their first thoughts on the Apple Arcade service (note: this episode was recorded a little while back, so these were pretty early impressions just a week after Apple Arcade released).

Derek downs a Banana Bread Beer from Eagle Brewery, while John drinks a Bastion Blonde Ale from White Sails Brewing.

Enjoy our first episode, and please let us know what you think!
