Would you trust this bunch with anything? Er… We’ve done a lot of growing up in the twenty or so years since this picture was taken but one thing you’ll never coach out of us is our love for video games. From the podcast to the written content here, we wish to celebrate the glory days of gaming and enjoy sharing our gaming memories with you all.
