About this episode

The episode discusses the game Star Wars: Racer Revenge, its development, and its relevance today.

Return with me to a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away as we tackle the futuristic racing title, Star Wars: Racer Revenge! Learn how the game was made, discover why pod racing became such a big deal in the first place, and listen in as we discuss whether it's still worth your time to strap yourself into a cockpit attached to a couple of nuclear accelerators propelling you around a track at over 600 miles per hour, even today.
