Hollow Knight: Silksong (2025) Dec 11, 2025

Show notes

Hunter was able to talk Ernest Jernest into coming right back to talk about one of the biggest games of the century, Hollow Knight: Silksong. Apologies that we're not exhaustedly discussing sparse details of this game in a hotel room in Indianapolis but we thought maybe we'd do it justice this time. ;)

Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (1995) Dec 03, 2025

Show notes

Matt has returned to Hunter's couch to talk about that green egg laying dyno we all know and love! A classic OGA discussion of feeling pretty alright about a video game. Cold open discussion is all about the Analogue 3D that both the boys recently unwrapped as early Christmas gifts from Santa!

I Have No Mouth and, I Must Scream (1995) Oct 23, 2025

Show notes

This week Hunter and newcomer Shelton Brister sit down to talk about the darkest game in OGA history. A twisted weirdo post-apocalyptic point-and-click written by Harlan Ellison. It's a lot but this game invites a lot of interesting discussion even if that discussion requires some pretty serious content warnings.

Panzer Dragoon (1995) Oct 09, 2025

Show notes

Hunter and Matt are here this week to talk about our classic OGA subject: SEGAAAAA. This one is a real throwback that I feel like should be very fitting this week of just the boys havin' fun talking about a weird franchise we're quite fond of. Jump on and give it a listen!
