Matt Perez and Satchell Drakes dig into the curious and intellectual aspects of video games and the medium's impact on the world. Erik Kain and Paul Tassi discuss the week's relevant video game news and new releases.
Star Wars. Twin Peaks. Will & Grace. Nostalgia is a booming trend from entertainment to politics. But is that such a good thing? Satchell Drakes and Matt Perez talk about Sonic Mania, the successful throwback to the good old days of a down-on-his-luck blue hedgehog and speak with Dr. Tim Wildschut, an associate professor of psychology at the University of Southampton, to better understand our wistful affection of the past.
