IBIF Podcast 172 – The Nostalgia Was a Lie
About this episode
The episode discusses price gouging in GTA 6, the loss of digital game libraries, and the nostalgia for niche PS2 titles.
Join the guys as they tackle everything from the aggressive price gouging in GTA 6 to the existential dread of losing your digital game library. In this episode, the guys sip "juice bomb" beers, complain about survival game mechanics until they’re blue in the face, and try to justify why they’re still playing niche titles from the PS2 era. Whether they’re dissecting corporate greed or debating the merits of a pinball-war-strategy hybrid on the GameCube, the guys are just here to prove that while they might not know everything, they certainly have strong opinions about it.
