Embassy Exclusive 55: Retro Resurrection
Description
In the spirit of Easter Sunday, we’re talking about resurrection and reconciliation on today’s episode, particularly in the realm of retro game series. Todd asks us to think about some older games with fatal flaws and what we’d do to fix them and make them worthy of our time. Ed asks about bringing old game series back to life, and how they’d fit in with modern gaming aesthetics. And lastly, Joe’s been inspired by Metal Gear Solid parody game UnMetal and wants more stealth-based game recommendations.
