Smash & Brews - Reliving Classics with a Modern Twist, Gaming’s Future, and Marine Corps Cheers

Smash & Brews

Ever wondered which beloved classic video games would shine brightest with a modern makeover? Join, Fernie, Mike on the Mic as we team up with gaming connoisseur Eric to explore the vibrant landscape of video game nostalgia and innovation. From the charm of Zelda and Super Mario's pixelated adventures to the adrenaline-fueled action in Rocket League and FIFA, we traverse the evolution of gaming, reflecting on how the Microsoft and Activision Blizzard merger could shape the future of our favorite digital realms.
Raise your glass—or controller—to an episode jam-packed with the latest buzz, including the tantalizing tidbits on GTA 6's announcement, and the exciting fusion of RTS and platformer elements in "Aliens: Dark Descent." We don't just stop at discussing existing games; we dive into a thought experiment about revitalizing classics with today's tech. Imagine the possibilities! Eric's fresh voice amplifies our musings on the impact of constant updates in games like Call of Duty and what it means for gamers' hard drive space (and sanity).
We round off this digital escapade with heartwarming memories of local multiplayer sessions and a peek into the future of multiplayer gaming's social dynamics. But it's not all pixels and nostalgia—we also sip and critique a variety of beers, including the curious Korean Ichiban. Tune in for an episode that's equal parts gaming genius and light-hearted banter, all while honoring the Marine Corps birthday with an exuberant "Oorah!" It's more than just a podcast; it's an evening with friends, stories, and maybe even your next favorite brew.
