The PlayStation 2 has one of the most stacked libraries in gaming history. So when Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time beat out a bunch of games to win the PS2 Patreon Poll, I was intrigued. And after playing the game, I totally get it. Sands of Time is awesome.
I love these puzzle platforming-esque games, and you can see the DNA of so many gems from today in Sands of Time. The controls can be a little irritating at times, but the action, that dope rewind function, some humorous voice acting and the reasonably tight combat kept me invested for me entire 10-ish hour playthrough.
My buddy Daniel played this one back when it came out. I finished it about 5 hours before we recorded. But 2 decades doesn't change the fact that a good game is a good game. And Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is a good fucking game.
And before we play with sand, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks if I'm getting more concerned about game preservation as online stores on classic consoles start shutting down. Who are my video game crushes? And is "any" publicity for a game actually "good" publicity?
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 of my favourite PS2 games: God of War, Twisted Metal: Black, and Bully.

X-Men Legends is one of those games I've been wanting to cover on the show for years. I loved it back when it came out, and replaying it twenty years later, I'm happy to say it holds up in the best way. This is a must-play for superhero junkies.
If you've never played it, this was the game that paved the way for the Ultimate Alliance series. You form a team of 4, choosing from over a dozen members of X-Men, and then it becomes a bad-ass dungeon crawler. Every character controls the same but plays different, and when you add in the multiplayer facets, you got yourself a hummmmm dinger.
My buddy Tyler is the Nightcrawler to my Gambit, and we had a chat about why this truly is one of the best super hero games ever made. If you've never played it, I hope we convince you to take the leap. Just don't use Emma Frost. She sucks.
And before we play with legends, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks if I played any classic PC games as a kid, and I put out a call to action for the hot dogs. Has a video game ever humbled me? (Yes). And do I have any plans to change up the show anytime soon?
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 retro X-Men games: The Uncanny X-Men (NES), X-Men: Mutant Apocalypse (SNES), and X-Men (Genesis).

We have over 650(!) bonus podcasts in our Patreon archives at this point, so I like to toss a freebie on here now and then. Plus we're moving this week, so I haven't had time to play anything. One of my favourite things to do on Expansion Pas are console retrospectives. We look back at the systems we grew up with and share our memories and stories while we examine a console's legacy. And for my money, they don't get any legacier than the legendary NES.
If you enjoy this, we have a TON more waiting for you on Patreon (ad-free, too!). You can also write into the show, join our Discord, help choose the games we cover, and more! Subscriptions start at just $3/month at Patreon.com/RememberTheGame

Over 6 years of this podcast, I've discovered some GREAT Genesis games. But this week, we're actually covering of the rare Sega games I played as a kid. The sexy as hell shooter known as Vectorman.
There were a few games on the Sega side of the console wars back in the 90's that genuinely made me jealous as a Super Nintendo kid, and Vectorman was one of them. I absolutely adored the way it looked (still do), and it was a surprisingly competent platformer/shooter as well. You play as a bot made out of orbs, and you spend the game running, gunning, an transforming as you take on other robots made of orbs. And you blow up a lot of TVs, too. It's a fairly difficult game, but one that gets pretty beatable with a little practice. I think it's a must-play game in the Genesis library.
My guest this week was the guy that suffered my wrath on the Ecco the Dolphin episode, my pal Andre. We got into how good Vectorman looks, how decently it plays, he frustratingly tough it can be, and of course, we made a bunch of balls jokes.
And before we talk balls, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks if I could buy one gaming studio, who would it be? What's on my Mt. Rushmore of video game collection items? And what gaming mechanic has become wayyyy too over played?
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Genesis platformers: Quackshot, Rocket Knight Adventures, and Dynamite Headdy.

The Mario & Luigi games are known for their charm, fun combat systems and semi-platforming/puzzle solving. I haven't played a game from this series in well over a decade, but I went back for Partners in Time, and y'know what? It was delightful! (Except for the boss fight at the end. Fuck.)
If you haven't played this one, Mario & Luigi end up going back in time to save Princess Peach, and they run into younger versions of themselves. It not only makes Baby Mario & Luigi less annoying, it actually turns out they're pretty dope in the right situation. Add in Bowser and Baby Bowser teaming up, weird alien mushrooms, and a bean store that I couldn't FUCKING FIND, and you have yourself a pretty good little RPG.
My guest Keegs has played all the Mario & Luigi games, and he quite likes this one (and the series as a whole). I don't know why I took so much time off from these games, but I won't wait another 15 years to play one after finishing Partners in Time. We had a couple minor gripes, but by and large it's a pretty solid game and we had a good time jibba jabbering about it.
And before we go back in time, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks wheat I think the worst named consoles of all time are. How do I hook up all my retro consoles? And what's my stance on the crumb bums ruining online game communities with their underhanded smurfing tactics?
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 of the highest rated DS games on Metacritic: GTA Chinatown Wars, Pokemon White/Black, and The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.

Hundreds and hundreds of you have been asking for us to talk NFL Blitz, and seeing as it won our Patreon Poll, I guess it's time. I'd never played a Blitz before, so I was stoked to fire this up and see what it's all about!
I'll warn you right now. I like football. I watch it, I play Fantasy, I cheer for the Broncos (I know...). But I'm not the most knowledgeable football guy. I only got into the sport as an adult, and I have very little experience with football video games. That said, you could say the same for basketball, and I fucking LOVED NBA Jam. So I was hoping Blitz would hit me in the same way and I'd fall in love again. I'm not sure I'd go that far with Blitz, but friends with benefits is fine by me. This is a good time.
My guest Brad grew up playing the OG NFL Blitz cabinet, and I've spent the past couple weeks screaming at fumbles in NFL Blitz 2000 for the PlayStation. We put our heads together and drew up a play to talk about what makes this game so fun, what irritates us about it, and why it definitely needs to be played with another person.
And before a "random" fumble completely fucks us over, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks if I'd consider reviewing more bad games (intentionally). What's a better option for starting a kid out with retro gaming: Nintendo Switch Online or an NES Classic? And what CDs did we rip onto our Xbox and Xbox 360s back in the day?
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Midway sports franchises: Ready 2 Rumble, NHL Hitz, and MLB Slugfest.

For years, the hot dogs have been asking for a DK64 review. I fought it for as long as I could, but much like Homer revisiting New York City, it's time for me to face my demons and talk about this damned game.
Donkey Kong 64 is the collectathon of all collectathons. You control 5 different Kongs and make your way through a bunch of levels looking for regular bananas, gold bananas, banana birds, coins, blueprints and more stuff I'm probably forgetting. While it's cool that each Kong plays differently and brings something unique to the table, the constant (FUCKING CONSTANT) swapping between them just leaves a sour taste in my mouth that I can't get over. I don't care for this game.
My guest, Bradley McCue, isn't the world's biggest fan either. Frankly, I think he's a little harder on the game than I am. But I think we were tough but fair, showed it some love when it deserved it, and voiced our Donkey Kong 64 frustrations in a calm and reasonable manner for the most part. No Angry Adam.
And before we go looking for a fucking Kong barrel to swap monkeys with, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks me to rank the 5 Zelda games I'd most like to see remade. Have I tried one of the remapped N64 controllers? And can we expect more Metroid Prime reviews before Prime 4 drops??
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Nintendo 64 Rare games: Banjo-Kazooie, Conker's Bad Fur Day, and Perfect Dark.

I can't think of many gaming franchises I love more than Mega Man. And when you think of the Mega-est of Mega Man games, you have to think of Mega Man 2.
While I (slightly) prefer Mega Man 3's harder difficulty and sliding abilities, there's no doubt that Mega Man 2 is the game that made the Blue Bomber a star. 8 robot masters, the most powerful weapon in Mega Man history, an awesome soundtrack, and a more forgiving gameplay loop. As one of our listener's said; "Mega Man 2 is the Mega Man what Terminator 2 is to The Terminator."
I'm rolling solo this week, but if there's a franchise I can talk to myself about without a problem, it's Mega Man. I actually go through my personal strategy to tackle the game this week, and along they way I sprinkle in some listener comments and get into what I like, love, and yes, hate, about MM2.
And before we kick some robot ass, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks me if my confidence behind the mic has improved over the past 6 years. What GameCube games are must owns? And so we actually miss blowing in the cartridge??
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 Mega Man titles: Mega Man Zero, Mega Man: Battle Network, and Mega Man Legends.

We've done a few game draft episodes now (our SNES and NES drafts are available here on the RTG feed) and they always go over well, so I thought I'd toss our Sega Genesis draft up here this week. I join 3 regular RTG guests, and we each draft 10 Genesis games to try to build the best library possible!

The more I play Metroid, and the more I play the GBA, the more I like them. So Metroid ON the GBA? Perfection And that's a word I might use to describe this week's game - Metroid: Zero Mission.
People have been screaming at me to play this one ever since we reviewed the original NES Metroid a couple years ago, and I finally see why. This is a full-blown remake of Samus' first game. Everything frustrating about the original version is gone, and everything new is awesome. I'm a fan of all the Metroid games I've played so far, but this stacks up against the best of the best.
My guest this week is our resident Metroid master, my buddy Daniel. We went over everything the fixed, everything they added, and everything that makes Zero Mission great this week. Minor spoilers for one segment are coming, but you should have already played this damned game anyway!
And before we go bounty hunting, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks me what my 3 gaming wishes would be. Will I ever review a card game on the show? And what do I know of Red Dead 2??
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 GBA games based on Nintendo IPs: Wario Land 4, Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, and Kirby and the Amazing Mirror.

I've slowly been checking out all the movies from the 80's and 90's that I missed growing up, and this week we're talking about quite possibly the worst AND the best of the bunch in Street Fighter: The Movie.
From the horrendous acting (aside from Raul Julia as M. Bison), to the stupid character backstories, I love EVERYTHING about this movie. A classic "it's so bad it's good" flick, and honestly one of my favourite "old" movies I've watched since I started down this cinematic road.
My guest this week is our resident fighting game junkie, Mike The Ref. I asked him to explain to a noob like me if any of this is actually canon to the Street Fighter universe, and we had a great time laughing the good (Bison), the bad (Guile), and the ugly (Ken) that was Street Fighter: The Movie.
And before we fight in the streets, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks me what the last game on the planet is that I would review on this show. Would I ever consider reviewing games that were never ported to America? And what do I like about being Canadian?
Plus we play a rare round of 'WATCH One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 crappy gaming movies: Tekken, Double Dragon, and Mortal Kombat.

Little Nemo: The Dream Master is unquestionably the single most requested game in RTG history, albeit by 2 people. It's a charming little NES platformer where you feed animals candy until they pass out, and then you wear their skin. Seriously.
If it sounds kinda messed up, well, it is. But it's also a really fun, kinda tough NES game, and it's made by Capcom, so it has to be decent at worst. I remember seeing it in magazines as a kid, and renting it a couple times. I used to think it was too hard, but playing it now I find it most beatable (that final level is pretty rough). Getting to play as the various animals is cool, and hey, who doesn't love poisonous candy?
My guest this week is the man that has been on me to cover this game for 5+ years, long-time hot dog, Awright/Andrew. I asked him why he loves this game so much, and we ranked the various animal costumes, went through all the levels, and made fun of how fucked up the premise of the game is. This was a good time.
And before we feed animals candy, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks me for Steam Deck recommendations. What's a good game for someone to try tactical RPGs with? And how often do people make bad puns with my last name??
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 lesser-known Capcom NES games: Strider, Code Name: Viper, and Bionic Commando.

A milestone episode calls for a milestone game, and for my stone's money there's no game as big as The Last of Us. Without any exaggeration, I can safely say this is one of my 3 favourite games of all-time.
The story is unlike anything I've ever played before. Frankly, it's better than practically every show or movie I've ever watched, too. And then add in incredible acting, awesome gameplay, and one of the most endearing characters in the history of media, and you've got yourself something special. And that ending?? Forget about it!
My guest this week is an institution here at RTG Industries, my bosom chum, Mark McCue. We spent an hour and a half praising the hell out of this game, going over the story and characters, and I think we did a damned OK job of explaining why The Last of Us is just so freaking special.
And before we look for the Fireflies, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks me what retro gaming podcasts I listen to. How do I deal with haters online? And why the HELL am I not playing Metal Gear Solid Delta??
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 of the highest rated PS3 games on Metacritic: Metal Gear Solid 4, Killzone 2, and Infamous 2.

We waited about 250 episodes too long to cover one of my favourite PS2 games of all-time. This week, we're talking Twisted Metal:Black, which is the best game in one of the coolest franchises in the history of gaming.
I fell in love with the Twisted Metal series on the original PlayStation, so when I saw a next-gen version of the series on PS2, I couldn't resist. And they didn't just live up to my expectations, they blew 'em out of the water. The graphics and combat were rock solid, and the morbid, dark, twisted backstories of each character (those cutscenes!) were insane. I hate that this series seems to be dead on the vine, but you can always (and should always) go back to Twisted Metal: Black for car combat perfection.
My guest this week was the guy that broke down the OG Twisted Metal games with me a few years ago, my pal Andre. And we both agreed that this game stands up as not only the best Twisted Metal, but one of the best games in the PlayStation 2's legendary library.
And before we twist metal, I put together another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone asks straight up, what means more to me: retro gaming or modern gaming? We're covering The Last of Us for episode 300 next week, what version should you play to get ready for it? And have I ever tried to repair a console myself?
Plus we play another round of 'Play One, Remake One, Erase One', too! This one features 3 car combat games: Vigilante 8, WWE Crush Hour, and Carmageddon.

I love The Simpsons. And I can look passed the flaws in their video games most of the time because of that love. But Bart vs The World is the suckiest bunch of video game suck that ever sucked.
It has the DNA of my beloved Bart vs The Space Mutants in it, with the crappy jump mechanics, awful hit boxes, and boring levels. But it adds a bunch of lame mini games that take up like 60% of your play-time, and leaves you wishing you were playing in the deepend of the sandbox with Ralph Wiggum instead.
My buddy David Rae makes his return to the show this week, and unlike most of his episodes that involve talking about great NES games, this one brought us both down as deep as Timmy O'Toole in that damned well.
And before we "vs the world", I deliver another edition of the Infamous Intro!
This week, someone hits me with a play one/remake one/erase one based on games featured on The Simpsons cartoon. What Pokemon would I want to have in real life? And what's a better name: Sega Genesis, or Sega Mega Drive?
